These 2 cars have something in common.
3000gt came in with no gaskets on the exhaust side, everything sealed up with copper rtv. Cut braided line pushed over the factory steel lines on the return side, no fuel pressure gauge but does have an aeromotive regulator (they come with a gauge though). The intercooler kit, MY GOD!!! The CX racing intercooler both the dual core and single are notoriously easier to install but with a little adjusting, cutting, swearing, and a little RnB music I was able to get it to fit properly. Haltech s3 and we'll be on the dyno soon!!
The Evo, where do I start. Previous engine lost oil pressure. The timing chain broke a link and it carved up the guides which clogged the oil pump. Built, sleeved and o-ring block later it's back. The fuel system on this car was so poorly done it's going through a complete overhaul. With 2150s and a brushless pump the (VE) Fuel table was maxed out with a base pressure of 55psi. Car only made 650. Out with the G30-900 in with the G35-1050. Let's turn it all the way up and see what we get. BUT BUT BUT, idk how this motor was built so I get to deal with oil pressure that's lower than what I would like. HOPEFULLY they built it looser than normal. I will pull it back apart before I send it(extra work 🙄 cause not everyone is good working on EVOs or building engines....... Why y'all gas these places up 🤷🏾♂️).
So that's what I been up to lol, if I'm not posting I'm working....... Sometimes too much!! Fun Dyno day coming up with a few high HP cars and a gang of 3000gts.
As always
