A few updates:

I drove her for about a week and couldn't stand the 4k + RPM's on the freeway (due to the 4 speed and 165 45 15's) added with the unwillingness to start in the morning.... Carbs!!! Dave said since I helped him on his car he would assemble my car with some turbo goodies I had been saving (Thanks Rob!!!!) if I brought them to him. Carter also gave me a 5 speed and driveline! So Dave has installed almost everything, I just need to get over there and wire it. O and he also put a subi diff in it for me, yeah!

Tell Dave to put the blanking plugs back into the open fuel hoses on the fuel injectors before some slow-spiders crawl in the and give that thing a bad case of slow. :cry:

You should work faster - your hot-rod output is almost as high as the production line capacity of both Toyota and Honda put together, so hurry up and exceed them, but only with 1968 2 doors, right?

ALL YOUR TURBO MANIFOLDS ARE BELONG TO US!

YOU HAVE NO MANIFOLDS TO SURVIVE; MAKE YOUR TIME.

Jason- Thanks :)

Byron - Megasquirt of corse :)

Rob - Yeah we should have put the caps back on, I was worried about stuff going in them, hopefully it goes back to the tank instead, if there is anything in there. I used the factory 5/16" fuel line to! I used it as the return though :) haha, damn I'm smart :) It was actually clogged but we got it figured out. This way the return fuel will clean it then get it will get filtered on the way back to the power house!!!

James - I can't afford a mani of that caliber :)

Me and a good buddy from work on installing S13 rear suspension into are 510's. We decided to model everything first, that way we could find the roll center, how much we needed to narrow the crossmemeber ect. We've been working on it for a long time and still need to finish designing the sub frame but this is a quick sneak peek at what we have been up to. The 510 body besides the bottom is just a quick and rough drawing the underside is dead on. We still need to model a s13 R200 the one is the photo is a rough R160 just to get an idea.

Very cool Jeff! I have one of those S13 rears too. When you get it all dialled in, I'll invite you up and we can chop it and install into that abandoned red car in my shop. :D
