My 2010 Sport

sirnixalot · 05-23-2019, 02:20 PM

Heads got back to them earlier this week and final assembly is happening. It does appear that the machine shop they use had a large work load. Since they say the parts have been back in their possession work has been progressing at a decent pace (although again different from the expectation that was set).

My clutch arrived! Just need to order a new CMAK and the drivetrain is complete

sirnixalot · 05-26-2019, 03:27 AM

The oil pressure sensor port adapter I got won’t work so I used some fuel rail stock leftover from another project. Just need to make a mount for it now

sirnixalot · 05-27-2019, 12:09 PM

Ordered some smaller fire sleeve for the oil feed lines

So no where has any 8AN aluminum bungs in stock so I gotta wait till next week for those. Here is the progress so far on my ARC/SOHO "inspired" catch can / coolant reservoir. I'm going to be sandwiching a small piece of scotchbrite to use as a filter to keep the profile low

Some of the the valves weren't sealing when they did the pressure test so it took some extra time to do a valve job (which is listed as something that's supposed to be done anyway

)

Next week is the new new shipping time

In other news

Found a pigtail locally to fix the crank sensor connector that I forgot to disconnect but the engine hoist didn't

Right now I'm doing all of this on a stupidly small concrete slab and with everything coming together hopefully soon I decided to divert some money into pouring a 10x20 slab to be able to stretch out on. No way i can fab the exhaust in it's current situation etc. I'll be boxing up everything this weekend and I have the concrete truck booked for next thursday

Mounting tabs on and it fits perfectly.

Man my back is sore. Getting too old for this manual labor stuff. I'm bringing home a compacter tonight to get the material packed down then I can add the plastic and the mesh. Need to get a cut off wheel to cut the rebar up to brace the form as well.

Stick welding and I don't normally get along so well. The whole action of having to make circles with the rod, drag it along and push it down in one motion takes some patience to learn.

Made some anchors for the 4x4 posts, only the thin galvanized stuff was available locally and they rust out so quickly. I know these will last once I get them painted up and are definitely above our building code. 1/2" rod welded to 3/16 plate.

sirnixalot · 06-06-2019, 11:18 AM

It's poured!

sirnixalot · 06-12-2019, 09:32 AM

Ironing out some final details today and hopefully I get a tracking number by friday.

Things left to get are:

Figure out if I am going to fly up to pick up the turbo's and timing chain kit (the ticket is cheaper than shipping direct or using a forwarder)
Zspeed CMAK, pilot bushing and clutch alignment tool

Things left to fabricate are:
Full exhaust
Intakes

sirnixalot · 06-12-2019, 04:56 PM

So they finally caved and sent me a pic of the motor (been asking for some for at least 3-4 weeks now)

sirnixalot · 06-13-2019, 02:13 PM

The powder coating guy left island for 6 weeks and since we do PPG paint ant work I mixed a half pint of Nissan FAK metallic teal. Thinking about doing the timing covers and possibly the valve covers in this.

sirnixalot · 06-17-2019, 09:01 AM

Got the car in the air, the exhaust dropped and the diff taken out.

Converted it to 1.5way and swapped on the Z1 diff cover. I've got 2 liters of the OS giken fluid to fill it with in hopes it will calm the harshness since I didn't deactivate any plates. I'll get it reinstalled at some point this week when someone can lend me a hand.

Awesome stuff in this build. I'm following.
