Motor has been in the car, but this weekend I put on the rest of the exhaust and laid the wiring harness and fuel rails! It has competition motor and tranny mounts, and it looks like the crossbrace is relatively new as the middle bushing is still intact and the brace itself doesn't look very old.

RB exhaust is on

T2 trans and Driveshaft

Engine with S5 n/a harness and injectors (cleaned by Witchhunter)

New clutch master and slave cylinder, as well as clutch line from Mazdatrix

Came on the Jspec

wheels I picked up today. Same everything as the vert wheels, just gold and not mazda branded.

As of now all the pics are showing up... If for whatever reason they go away, I give up on using picasa and will go to photobucket or something like that

That Vert had a Turbo motor and tranny in it just before you bought it. It was alot of work to get all that out of the car to find out you bought it and are doing the exact same thing that was done. Too bad you did not buy it with the turbo stuff already in it.
Good luck with the build, it will be nice and worth it when done.

were you the one to take it out?? I did pick it up in spring hill and that had crossed my mind...

I knew him from when he would come into advance and actually gave him advice when he tried to put it in. I actually went over to his house in Mboro and told him everything he needed to do but he just wasn't smart.

fitness stain · 05-13-2009, 04:20 PM

that's some lame shit .. i'm sure it'll work out though ...

build it up right and then sell it to me

85rx-7gsl-se · 05-13-2009, 05:02 PM

I hate you Paul...

stylEmon · 05-21-2009, 03:57 PM

I have those same BBS rims. What size are they? Have you got them to fit on the front?

FerociousP · 05-21-2009, 11:07 PM

they are the exact same size as the stock vert rims... so yes

stylEmon · 05-22-2009, 01:41 PM

oh, mine aren't exactly like that...

My spokes are a little wider. Mine are 8.5" wide, but I can't seem to find the offset.

djmtsu · 05-22-2009, 02:02 PM

stylemon, yours look like the ones that came on various Toyotas over the years.

FerociousP · 05-06-2010, 08:56 AM

WELL.....

After a year of waiting, the legal matters have been worked out and I have the title in hand. The guy who sold it to me will be forced to pay the original owner a specified amount, and the original owner signed a new title over to me.

I sold the Knightsport turbo and bought a stock s5 one as I didn't want to have to buy injectors and some sort of ecu when I didn't know the exact condition of the motor. This is fine as now I can enjoy it with minimal cost and upgrade as necesssary. Yesterday I started the motor for real and it fired up on the first crank and all subequent starts when warm! Hopefully my good luck with the motor will continue as later today I will be bleeding the brakes and taking it for a spin. Pics to come tonight!
