๐Ÿ˜€ Some of you may know, i bought Rudeboy, now we are in the process of giving him back his original heart!

Were done, other than some wiring glitches. Will be replacing the fire damaged stuff sometime, think its working for now though, so if i can just get it running ill be happy.

Looking good, that was a very fast car when Elroy had it.

That wiring has made me dizzy just lookin at it ๐Ÿ˜ฎ ๐Ÿ˜‚ , Awesome work Dialate ,I cant wait for the kill stories and videos ๐Ÿ˜‰

Give the motor the results it deserves i did not get the chance to take full advantage of 2 bar RB25 madness ๐Ÿ˜‚

lookin real good

p.s the silicon pipe on the wastegate should be on the bottom port, top one stays open, and make sure you get the flow direction through the T-piece right.

uh huh! We were wondering about that!! Thx!!!

Care to enlighten me on the wiring?

Car cranks, got fuel, no spark though?! Very frustrating.

The dis4 has a flashing red light, which I assume is power, and we have matched the old and new wires, pin for pin...

HELP PLEASE!!!!

Must thank my mate and mechanic Fernando - i do all the menial stupid things, he does all the important stuff ๐Ÿ˜‰ THX DUDE! respect!!

Tidying up a little.. starting to look a lot nicer.

I hate seeing excess wires! but dont have the time / knowledge / patience to wire the fusebox into the glovebox. The fusebox is loose currently, it will be secured just in front of the radiator bottle (metal box).. very happy with the wiring from the coils and dis4 unit - they will be pretty much invisible in the next day or so. The big plug sitting under the dis 4 is un-taped and loose as the dis4 is just in a test fitted position, not secure yet.

The red and black wires need to be attached to ground a perm power - next on the list ๐Ÿ˜‰

Im getting pretty happy with it!

ddialate10 Jun 2010, 11:24

IT LIVES! need to put water and start cleaning up / making neat / etc etc
Thanks Fernando - you rock dude!

Awesome, its looking pretty good hey? There's a weird high pitched noise if you listen to the video.. any ideas what it is? could be the clutch? or the exhaust, which is hanging loose..?

You can counter to counter the package from the post office.. my closest post office is Cresta in JHB. Just send me a tracking number? Id appreciate it TONS!

NICE BAKKIE BTW!
