Does it run?

Not yet man. I didn't have time to mess with it the other night. Made some progress last night, hopefully fire it off tonight or tomorrow.

Them guts are clean as the outside. And the valves are adjusted.

Got the battery on charge and I have the plug wire setup for a timing light.

damn man this thing is so sick! every single part and detail youve put into it is perfect like a dream build of mine. perfect mix between function and bling haha. pardon a dumb question.. what is the purpose of those things surrounding your top hats? are they some sort of reinforcement for the shock tower?

Yeah man they are mpc strut top braces. They will be bolted down when I get the correct nuts for the strut tops.

Upload it to Youtube and either link us or embed it by clicking the film reel icon on the toolbar and putting the link in there.

We don't allow video's to be uploaded via the CC attachment uploader thing.

 

[B18cya99]

try that for the video

try that for the video

Looks like you'll need to change the video settings on youtube from private to either unlisted or public.

 

[B18cya99]

Try that then lol. I'm learning

 

[XpL0d3r]

Works for me. And wow that thing just sounds mean.

[JDMchristian991]

Such a sick build. I love the color on the te37.

Well made it to the dyno and the car was having some smoking issues. We thought it was coming from the turbo. Pulled all the turbo stuff off and it looks like the new valve seals I have are leaking like crazy. So now I got to tear it on down and see what's going on. Gotta to love more work.

 

[blandsarcasm]

damn thats shitty. what seals were you using and what was causing them to leak?

 

[B18cya99]

Finally got it straightened out. It made 442hp 11psi and 503hp 322tq 16psi. .
