Spartan GL's Build Thread: (09-21-14) New photos!

Re: Spartan GL's Build Thread: (6-12-2012) PG 42 Fuel Rails/everything bolted up

That's FL for ya. We're about the same up here, just lots of rain.

^ That...Good old florida weather... Either hot a hell, or a tropical storm.

We've had 13" locally, and I had to go park the Eclipse up on higher ground so it wouldn't get flooded..No tornadoes though.

Though you shoulda gotten a picture of you wrenching on the GTP with the twister in the background, woulda made for a hell of a calendar picture.
 
I don't think any of those are his. I saw the gator pic on FB from another friend.

Thankfully we don't get many tornadoes here since we have so many hills and it doesn't really flood thanks to all the rivers that flow out of here. Panhandle FTW.

I know he was scheduled for a class that's why he could not mail out my calipers I am guessing he's at a stage where other than breathing all his spare time is taken up

The Front Calipers are taken off, The rear ones are still on the car. I am using my buddies shop for the build and he doesnt want to "Open a new can of worms" with taking the rear calipers off and worrying about it till the engine is finished.


here is everyone elses UPDATE

Coolant Lines and System is all buttioned up and on. We installed the Northstar TB today and starting plugging in sensors and lines and such. the Coil bracket is back on after messing with that over and over again.


LEFT TO DO ON MONDAY:
Mount FMHE (Run the Lines and attach the Pump)
Vac lines
Plug a few sensors in
CRANK

Once she starts I am taking the rear brakes off and sending them that day to Logan. (sorry for the wait bro)

Then once i have the new rear brakes on i am taking it to get Dyno tuned. Then ill finish resintalled the door panels (had to take em off to get painted.)

extensive detail and then the motherload of final pictures.!

His main excuse was he wants it to be a rolling chasis until the engine work is done in case he gets a big job come in and doesnt want it to tie up one of his lifts if the rear brakes are off.

A few photos of areas of concern we are dealing with

bd9cbbe1.jpg

This plug came with ZZP's N* kit i'm not sure what the white plug goes to.

851e3cc8.jpg

No idea what this plug attaches to. Also that hole on the GEN V I'm not sure if i am missing something or not that is supposed to bolt onto there.

11dbaa12.jpg

A Vac line is supposed to go on that nipple but i'm not 100% sure where that connects to.

b90e4448.jpg

ABS Plug underneath the pulleys/battery area that i think i need a harness for my old one is MIA

c1a8c17a.jpg

I still have this sensor and i'm not 100% sure what it plugs into/mounts on.


Also i could use a Diagram of the Vac lines/ Sensors if anyone has one.

Also the correct fireing order for the spark plugs (Front is 2,4,6 rear is 1,3,5) if i recall correctlly.

and if anyone knows a decent Cold Air intake kit that will mount on the Northstar TB I am in the market for a new one my old one fits but I'd rather spend the cash and get a nicer looking one.
 
Re: Spartan GL's Build Thread: (6-30-2012) PG 44 Finishing Touches could use some in

Epic build glad you got rid of all the red you use to have.
 


Re: Spartan GL's Build Thread: (6-30-2012) PG 44 Finishing Touches could use some in

You still using those MSD coil packs? I was kinda surprised to see them on there

never had an issue with them. i may someday switch back to stock to see how it feels.

The first pic the two plugs are one goes to the iat one goes to the maf plug. The second pic of the harness, looks like your map sensor plug.
 
Re: Spartan GL's Build Thread: (6-30-2012) PG 44 Finishing Touches could use some in

I found out what im missing. Its this bracket that bolts on to the rear valvecover/stock fuel system that connects to the EGR and a few vac tubes (Sensor/bracket thing on the left side of the photo)
