Thanks Bobby.....:)

No problem will deff catch up at a later time. Yea by the third day Me and Bobby were walked out. But deff worth the miles upon miles of walking :)

Thanks.. I sure hope that it will be ready to run with some what of a good tune to run the Deals Gap...

my feet still hurt from all the walking at SEMA

I see a lot of little details that I'm sure most people are missing that I LOVE to see. This build is an inspiration. I can't wait to get started on my FD build.

I think you and I are probably 2 of the only rotary owners who have both Raychem and bulkhead disco's on our wiper motors :smililol5:

Beautiful build, can't wait to see it.

hey chip, can I borrow your turbo for a day or 2? I got some deer I need processing. I figure I can save some time if I just feed the entire thing in all at once.

Your paint color is amazing.

Thanks... :)...

Small update.. Started to run the fuel lines... Starting to come together :)...

many more hours to go... Dam I hate this car... lol

Some update...

Just finished the prime 044 intank -8 feed pump/ -10 feed for belt brive pump/-10 return lines set up...

I'm slightly confused here...

There is a -8 feed off the bosch pump. Is this is non return system? Or does the return line from the Bosch system T in with the return from mechanical system? I thought the mechanical pumps needed to be fed from a lower pressure lift pump?

What is the fitting on top of the bosch pump before the coupler fitting?

Where did you get that electrical connector? It doesn't look like the stock FD one.

Still an amazing build, are you planning on bringing this to DGRR?

-Brian

The 044 feeds the FPR so that there is fuel in the system so the higher than normal mounted mechanical fuel pump picks up the fuel to start pumping. The return is a -10 from the FPR.

That is a stock fd connector and the longer fitting on top of the 044 is a check valve. so when the mechanical pump pick up it doesn't push back in to the 044 pump...

Hope it makes sense.

Na, not this year next, to much custom work/ that takes to much time to get it done in time, wont make it down with this car to DGR....

Thanks

hopefully with another though =]

cars looking good!

boooo!

Agree. I was hoping it might be done.

Dude, I thought my build was over the top... I am seriously impressed. Keep up the good work. I wish I had your skills. :bowdown:

I'm digging your mechanical pump setup.
Nice stuff.

Thank you for being so generous with your knowledge and posting such detailed pictures of the beautiful workmanship, you are a huge inspiration. Im really happy to see people of your caliber in the rotary world. Thanks again, Bob

Mind putting up a simple labeled diagram of your fuel system?

I will try to explain the best I can.

2 feeds 1 return
1 -8 AN feed from the prime pump ( in tank 044) to the FPR with a non return check valve after the pump.
1 -10 feed to the mechanical fuel pump with a check valve before the pump.
1 -10 return from the FPR
The prime pump is on a ON OFF switch, once the car is started there is enough vacuum /gas draw on the mechanical pump to shut off the prime pump. At the same time if the belt on the mechanical pump breaks I will have some what fuel pressure from the prime pump to make it home/off the track/ in to the trailer.

I hope it makes sense. if not I will be more than happy to respond to any ?? you / someone ales might have.

Thanks

Hey there,

Just a quick one about the water coolant inlet neck on the front iron. Are you able to tell me who made it? What dash size are the fittings attached to it?

Love the project, will be keeping my eye on it!

And the mop stick from walmart priceless :)...

I thought it would have been a Meziere product, I had a look on their website before asking and couldn't find jack. Did you have the piece of aluminium holding the water temperature sensors fabricated?

Yes its a water jet item...
Thanks

Just a sneak peak:).....

Any chance of snapping a picture of the engine/ steering rack proximity?

My understanding is that the project was never completed, and parted out.

WoW.. That's sad.. But i got dibs on the engine...:hurray:

:rofl: As I said in the other thread, looks awesome Chip!

Thanks Brent, i love forum roomers... :)....

Sorry, I think I confused your build up with somebody elses :o

Small update,
Dressing up the turbo GT45rbb with some space age material ...:) Carbon Fiber .....JK .......

At the same time, i'm having a company make me a custom mesh stainless steel 3 layer disk type filter 25 micron, for my turbo. It will be wedged be twin the carbon fiber cone and the turbo inlet flange. That will serve as my turbo inlet filter. Reason... I'm unable to run a standard K&N type filter do to tight space.

That carbon fiber intake on the turbo looks GREAT!

Update!?!?!?!

bunch of pics on there...

Awesome project!

Chip... Reallly really nice. I love the way you mounted the coils on the plenum for a straight shot down and without having to squeeze them in down by the frame rails.

To Slow,

Are you still lapping and renitriding, if so what are your current prices?
