So me and Rodney went at it again this weekend. Fuel pump went dead on us and had an issues with the manual trans ecu. Would Idle but would bog and stall out when you would rev it. So we put the auto ecu back in it. But we had to drive all the way form Turlock CA to reno just to get 2 walbro 255lph inline fuel pumps We put exhaust wrap on the headers and over the ECU to keep it cold. Installed the new BOV which is amazing!! Then bumped the boost from 12psi to 16psi. put the slicks on for the first time and had some fun! Will get some videos of it up soon! <a href="http://s1139.photobucket.com/albums/n555/892jz/?action=view&current=IMG_0856.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1139.photobucket.com/albums/n555/892jz/IMG_0856.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> <a href="http://s1139.photobucket.com/albums/n555/892jz/?action=view&current=IMG_0857.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1139.photobucket.com/albums/n555/892jz/IMG_0857.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> <a href="http://s1139.photobucket.com/albums/n555/892jz/?action=view&current=IMG_0858.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1139.photobucket.com/albums/n555/892jz/IMG_0858.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> <a href="http://s1139.photobucket.com/albums/n555/892jz/?action=view&current=IMG_0859.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1139.photobucket.com/albums/n555/892jz/IMG_0859.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> <a href="http://s1139.photobucket.com/albums/n555/892jz/?action=view&current=IMG_0860.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1139.photobucket.com/albums/n555/892jz/IMG_0860.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> also cut some nice useful vents in the hood to help let some of the heat out! <a href="http://s1139.photobucket.com/albums/n555/892jz/?action=view&current=IMG_0861.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1139.photobucket.com/albums/n555/892jz/IMG_0861.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> <a href="http://s1139.photobucket.com/albums/n555/892jz/?action=view&current=IMG_0862.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1139.photobucket.com/albums/n555/892jz/IMG_0862.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> <a href="http://s1139.photobucket.com/albums/n555/892jz/?action=view&current=IMG_0863.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1139.photobucket.com/albums/n555/892jz/IMG_0863.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> <a href="http://s1139.photobucket.com/albums/n555/892jz/?action=view&current=IMG_0864.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1139.photobucket.com/albums/n555/892jz/IMG_0864.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> <a href="http://s1139.photobucket.com/albums/n555/892jz/?action=view&current=IMG_0865.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1139.photobucket.com/albums/n555/892jz/IMG_0865.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> <a href="http://s1139.photobucket.com/albums/n555/892jz/?action=view&current=IMG_0866.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1139.photobucket.com/albums/n555/892jz/IMG_0866.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>
I feel she needs wider slicks haha. Turbo needs an airduct that leads fresh air to the filter EDIT. it does have an intercooler.... lol
The guy that had the slicks b4 us was running in the 9's. And it does have a FMIC. We may go to a radiator mounted under the bed. and then run a huge FMIC on it then lol
The slicks held pretty well. My buddy I bought them from was pulling 1.58 60ft on his 66 stang with them so, we shall see. I launched it at 5-6k and only spun first on the streets. With a prepped track it should hook a lot better. 2nd gear had full traction. the slicks are 26'' x 8'' on 15'' steel wheels. They also have inner tubes. ill send Matt the video footage asap.
245's huh... and no rubbing issues up front? so those 15inch steelies in the rear clear the caliper of the ford 8.8 too huh... cuz im looking at getting some used slicks or et streets but concerned about sizing...
yeah I have had no problems with either of them. and that was the fist time we have run the slicks and no issues there either.
Gauge Idea..... what you guys think? I would flip the spedo with the other gauges and the spedo would be in MPH as well.
Thanks for the input man! I just got to try and find a supra cluster so i can! Ill keep you all posted.
Yeah I thought about that to. But then I realized that if I get on it at all I am speeding so id like to know when I got to shift over speed lol
FIC fuel rail kit arrived today and I switched the doors from my 94 onto the 89 they were dynomated and already had 6.5s and tweeters installed. I will get pics of the swap up soon! <a href="http://s1139.photobucket.com/albums/n555/892jz/?action=view&current=IMG_0886.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1139.photobucket.com/albums/n555/892jz/IMG_0886.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> <a href="http://s1139.photobucket.com/albums/n555/892jz/?action=view&current=IMG_0885.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1139.photobucket.com/albums/n555/892jz/IMG_0885.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> <a href="http://s1139.photobucket.com/albums/n555/892jz/?action=view&current=IMG_0884.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1139.photobucket.com/albums/n555/892jz/IMG_0884.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>
