AZRR CYM FD Build Coming Together

RCCAZ 1 · 06-23-2009, 08:50 AM

OK everyone,

Installed aluminum WG hardlines over the weekend. Thanks to Glenn and Tom from AZRR for coming over to perform much of the install. Much appreciated guys! They will be selling this kit on their website www.azrotaryrockets.com, so keep an eye out for the kit coming soon!!

Anyhow, after only 900 miles my "state of the art" high temp rubber hose kit had turned to "toast." Lesson one... keep the WG lines as far away from the heat source as possible. I had initially routed my lines NEXT TO the turbo. Bad idea. Lesson two.... now, my WG lines head towards the back of the motor, up the firewall, then around the ABS to my Greddy control unit. Much, much better. Check it out!

Everyone,

Finally completed my dyno tuning on Tuesday (7/7). Check out the results here:

Sweet numbers!

I'm hugely impressed with the low boost figures, that thing must be a monster on the street!

Congrats, enjoy!

Nice job on the wastegate lines too, they are definetely a vital piece of the system and you don't want a random hole showing up out of nowhere. Those are aluminum lines yeah?

That looks identical to the sock that I purchased from Jay Racing. I think it was ~$50

Those WG Hardlines are beautiful. Being an overly anal retentive detail guy myself, your build is incredible. Would love to see it someday

Yes, driving home from the Tuner was fun. Even at the low boost setting (12.5 psi) it pulls like a freight train! Thanks Classic.... where are you located (geographically)? I agree that they (WG lines) are a vital piece and one where going overboard is not a bad thing. Very happy that my earlier WG line burnthrough incident didn't result in anything catastrophic. Yes, the new lines are aluminum and now that they're headed away from the heat source and up the back of the engine bay I can rest easier knowing they won't melt.

I think it IS the Jay Racing sock. I'm pretty sure that's who Glen ordered the pump through. Yes, I'd love to see your ride as well. I'm always at Sevenstock over in Irvine in September. Would love to get down to Deals Gap and ride the Dragon. Hopefully some day!!

Any plans for a 99spec front end Tim? = )

Maybe down the road Andy, but for now with SOoo many FDs running 99 specs, heck the average person on the road might mistake THEM for stock and mine as aftermarket

Everyone,

Just finished fabbing and powdercoating a custom bracket for my custom AST (7 inch depth versus standard 6 inch) and plumbed it back into the system. Was having a difficult time keeping air out of my system with the AST removed, so I just decided it was time to put it back in and try something new to see if I get a better result. So far, so good!

Also wanted to share some pics of my new shoes. Enjoy!

djmtsu · 01-07-2010, 12:51 PM

Love that PMY.

AchillesGr · 03-28-2010, 02:25 PM

hi,
one question please.
the koyo is the nflow or the standard one?
i am thinking of purchasing one for a vmount setup and i do not know if the nflow or the standard is suitable.
you have the best setup ....
thanks!!!

It's just a standard Koyo. If you look at post #44 you can see how the top of the radiator was modified to divide flow. Let me know if you have any other questions, and thanks for the compliment...

Car looks awesome with those wheels, very nice!

RCCAZ 1 · 07-16-2010, 11:22 PM

It's been awhile since I posted up and I've added a few new cosmetic upgrades. FEED CF door handle covers and SakeBomb Garage LED taillight upgrade. Also had my son's roommate take a few shots of the car.

A few more things coming in the next month or two. I'll try and do a better job of keeping everyone posted as my projects progress.

speedjunkie · 07-17-2010, 02:25 AM

What are the specs on your wheels and tires? I started a thread not long ago about that topic if you want to post it there. Up to you of course lol.

Looks great!! That might be the cleanest engine bay I've ever seen lol.

RCCAZ 1 · 11-19-2010, 10:25 PM

A few new shots. Changed up a few things to add some CF in the engine bay. Also I really liked what Jesse (Joff) did with his fender bolts, so I decided to replaced mine with similar ones!
