    Re: Shyboy's 89 Coupe

    haha alright ill pm you right now

    Lil Update:
    i cleaned up little pieces of trash from the old gasket in the cynlinder walls then i installed the head back in.

    i just gotta put everything back together and work on the transmission swap and she will be ready to go. should be ready in a couple months and ill snap some pics of it in the road and rolling shots when i meet up with Mike and see his se-i. oh and Shyboy is getting another coupe very soon so no more Sedan . even though it hurts me to sell my first car but my uncle is gonna buy it so it will remain with the family haha.

    Re: Shyboy's 89 Coupe

    Putting everything back together well mainly the motor cause i dont want to get parts or screws messed up. having trouble getting that hose on top of the VC back in place dont really want to remove the head again just for that so im gonna bust my ass off to get it back underneath the intake mani. almost done getting that done.


    this is when you got nothing better else to do lol i ordered white LED bulbs but turns out out with the tint or what ever you call it is blue so it gave like a purplish blue look which doesn't look to bad. for the record my favorite color is purple lol.


    ive been thinking since i have no header or exhaust im just gonna turbo the bitch and get it done with. but i dont think turbo will go with a 102k motor since its still a baby itself. so ill wait till i get it up to 110k. Gonna be in the market for a turbo header and will need help when i start with the build. i dont plan on pushing big numbers like most guys do on here for 2 reasons. one cause its a weekend driver and 2 cause i dont wanna be having to put alot of money for parts since its really hard to find anything in the market for these cars. so my range for HP would be 200 or 210hp. first is to push as much from the motor and the rest turbo. Also how do i get the timing belt back in place i never done that before but i have done the timing for it. do i need a special tool for it?

    Re: Shyboy's 89 Coupe

    as far as the t-belt goes, i just made sure my marks lined up, got a super small flathead screwdriver slid it under the belt and just over the edge of the gear, and got it on the cam gear like 3/5ths of the way then had a buddy turn the motor via crank pully and just pushed it on. it takes like 10-20 min to do it with alot of cursing but it works(if u didnt take the whole belt off)

    and as far as turboing the car goes, its gonna cost u well into the ranges of 3-4k fyi.

    Re: Shyboy's 89 Coupe

    I will try that and also tdurr um my tbelt goes off to the side and rubs against the cover any idea where I can find the guidence for it?

    3 or 4k huh? Well never said it was gonna be cheap but its worth it for this car. I just gotta get another job to see any more improvement for this project. Thanks for the info.
