Motor update!
Finally got some significant work done. Due to my own procrastination I had to take the rods and pistons back out to check clearances on the rod bearings. The crank was hard to turn by...

I'm gonna buy a new alternator after the holidays. I'm about to swap in a 99 1.8 in my 91 though. How easy is it to convert a 1.6 alt to work on the 99 motor?

I tried installing my old headlights and my car acts normally. No fuel pump relay issue at all.

Battery is in the trunk so I can't use the same ground as the engine to check voltage draw. And the...

Also if I start the car with the headlights on both lights go out while the car is cranking but the driver side recovers and comes back on. Passenger side stays off. I swapped ballasts and bulbs and...

Not sure what the draw is. How do I test that? Alternator is 2 years old and tested good at Advance Auto. Battery is a 400 CCA Duracell motorcycle battery and is brand new as of yesterday.

When I turn my headlights on when the car is running the fuel pump relay clicks and my rpm drop immediately. Almost to the point where it stalls the motor. It has only stalled once or twice but I...

Well plans changed for the head. I dropped everything off with Steve at Panic Motorsports and he informed me that the new oem springs I have are not going to cut it with the bigger cams. So bigger...

New side skirts...

I started my new job and just three weeks I bought another car haha. I had been wanting something with ac and a bit bigger to drive for work. I found this Panda hatch the other day for a great deal...

I didn't end up buying it. He wanted too much for it. :cry2:

Nope.... I still need to finish the head, but I have everything to finish it, minus lash caps. Just waiting on the spare funds to pay the machine shop. I'm also trying to decide if I want to have my...

That awkward moment when you realize you haven't done anything major to your car in about a year... I'm about to start a new job making significantly more money than I currently am so hopefully that...

Today I installed a Touge Run spoiler I recently acquired for next to nothing. It'll be somewhat temporary as I plan on making something different. But for now I think it looks good.

Thanks! But I was really slow. I decided to go straight into CSP instead of novice class and was 3 seconds behind everyone lol. But I was also the only 1.6 and I don't have much experience. I really...

Went to my second AutoX today. I didn't do very well. I only managed 3 clean runs out of 6 but I had a good time and learned a lot. This is my best run.

I got my water pump today. It's a very small step but shit it's the biggest step I've made in 7 months toward this build. I'm looking into pricing a set of valves and those should be ordered soon.

New shift knob...

This car is TOO SLOW!

Thank you! Yeah I definitely haven't had the greatest luck with dents haha. Hopefully this will be it for a while.



I feel the exact same way. Car will stay Satin Silverstone!

Thank you for the vote! Silverstone, BRG, Sunburst and Mariner are my faves in that order haha
