LS1 Drift Build 'Nuff Said'
#743
Okay Time for a legit update... So lets get this *********nParty started..
As I stated before I love Wheat beers and Karbach Brewing Co. makes a damn good. one..
And you know this post would not be complete if I did not post up some DogFish Head..
The DogFish Head Piercing Pils has a very unique taste.. i dig it though.
Started off running my Hydro Brake lines to the rear..
Ran it through the center console and then T'ed it in the rear..
Went under the Accusump, Nice and clean.. Now I still have to run all my brake lines though..
You know things are getting close when you start buying all your fluids
Damn that is a lot of oil.. Have to fill the Accusump also..
Going to make sure this bad boy stays cool..
A quick look at her before I send her off to Dallas to finish wiring
Damn she is one sexy lady..
Loaded her up on these damn Uhaul trailers,, Can't wait to buy my own once she is done.. (Just take a guess which trailer I am aiming for)
I think the only thing I like about this trailer is the tire tie downs..
Dropped her off at Stew's house.. And she is in good hands.. and also has some nice company with her..
**** is about to get real.. some cutting..
Sad sad day..... But the out come will be epic
Have to water proof and smoke proof these bad boys..
The Start of my floor board so my feet have some were to rest and not get hot..
I just love how this thing is turning out..
Need grip no problem.. Love how it turned out in the end with the grip tape and all..
Let the wiring begin..
Love this location of were my breaker is..
Out of sight
Let there be light!!!
So badass to see everything turn on...
entering the cabin
Now let the ChaseBays **** fest begin...
Stew found the issue why the PCM would not turn on.. Was getting constant power were it should have not..
Like WTF!!
Issues fixed and put back together
After all that we need to rename this harness
On to removing all the unnecessary wires for lights..
First time I have seen lights light up on this car for about 3 yrs.. so stoked.
Install my IAT sensor
Time to remove this 3yr old gas.. It was nasty to say the least.. and I had like 7gallons of it..
Before we stated we wanted to reroute the fuel lines better.. So more fittings were ordered..
And this cute little filter
Oh **** we have pressure.. We def bumpped this up with my FPR... But man over 3yrs its good to see some pressure.. lol
PCM is talking so lets do this..
Okay what all you guys have been waiting for.. Now I post everything on this build the good and the bad.. So with that being said I think this is Bad...LOL my idle is all jacked up so we are working on the issue as we speak and I should have a better idle vid for you soon.. But Like I promised we have a heart beat.. So stoked right now..
Now I got to hear this thing in person and man is it loud and rowdy, just how I wanted it to be.. can't wait to rip in this thing

haha I wish.. Still have to run brake lines, get alignment, tune, and wrap the car..
I guess its not really a timing thing, my idle is really rough but I think that is due to my cam of choice and just need a tune. Having someone come over to take a look at it first though.

Man great progress, loving your build.
Just wanted to share my experience with those tiny fuel filters. They filter very well but do get clogged up quickly due to their small size. You can simply clean them out and re-use. So make sure to check before any dyno or drift days!

Yeah I love the sound.. reminds me of that evil looking Carbon Fiber S14.5 with the LS motor..

Thanks for the heads up.. Yeah we were talking about that also when we got it in.. Def will have to clean it often.

Sooooo the ChaseBays BS continues... Figuring out why it sounds like **** and wont hold a idle..
BAM!!! Pins were not locked in,, Like come on... So we did not have all eight ignition signals more like 6.. We have a rough tune but need to get a wide band on it. Also my TPS sensor reads backwards.. 100 at idle and 0% at WOT (guessing chasebays is to blame for this) So going to buy a new TPS just to be safe since mine was used.
But as of right now I have another vid with a better idle that I will post up (question how do you embed Vimeo vids?)
So for now I am going to bring her home, run my brake lines, lower car and get alignment and then head back to Dallas to get tuned and fix any issues we come up with..

Okay so here is another vid (yes vid is shitty, I will get a better one later)
So we got the car to idle better, still need to jump on the dyno so we can iron out a few things but hey you get the ideal..
