Finally after about 4 months or more I finished the install and got the car back on the ground. I have the Lovefab GT1 set-up with the GT35R, 3mm HG, battery relocated, Competition Clutch (Ironman) and few other misc. things I installed. Right now its on AP1 stockies till my new wheels come in next week. I have to take the car to get the exhaust fabbed to fit, get it tuned and then I can finally have some fun. Heres a few pics.

As for the hood. I cut it out myself and need to add the screen. I have the screen but have to rethink how I'm going to install it to stay since I can't squeeze the hood together.

 

looks good man. hope it doesnt rain tho

 

Yeah, Its not my daily driver and plus I live in AZ. so we don't see rain here much. Just sun 330+days of the year!

 

Your car is looking nice, good luck on the tune and make some good #s

 

Thanks! I started it this morning and had a couple of hoses that weren't tightend and had a freakin oil spill in my driveway. Got them both tightened and so far no oil. I've got some smoke and that may be from where the oil had gotten on the manifold.... Hopefully, but I don't see anymore oil leaking. It almost looks like its coming off the the turbo itself. The car sounds like a boat with just a downpipe. I've set up next monday with Brett since the car wasn't ready by today.

 

Nice looking setup... anxious to see your numbers... I saw the pics of your hood in the DIY Hood Vent Post... I am taking on the same project myself. I am using the stock hood however, why can't you get your vents to stay in, just curious in case I ever do the same with a CF hood. Congrats on the Turbo install! Mine is going in in just 1 1/2 more months!

 

How did you solve the returnless fuel system issue. As you know, there is no longer a regulator on the fuel rail, it is built into the fuel pump module in the tank.

I don't have to worry about it yet. If I boost over 9 psi then I have to address the problem but since I'm not at this point of time I'll be fine. They are working on a new fuel rail for the 06+. Maybe when its finished I'll boost more but I should be good for awhile.

 

 

your car has DBW right?
