formby · 11-03-2006, 10:54 AM

for real?

klyph · 11-03-2006, 03:43 PM

Nice spray job man

Andrew · 11-03-2006, 03:45 PM

Thanks!

Andrew · 11-03-2006, 08:00 PM

I got the entire engine harness cleaned up and simplified for the tuck. It's gotta look awsome!

And check out my engine swap thread for pics of the latest stuff going on in the garage!

peace

Got the injectors split up so I can quickly plug them up under the IM!

And I also finished tapping everything up. I'm ready to rock and roll! the lengths on everything look fine.
If anything, a little too long.

eg6sir · 11-06-2006, 11:09 AM

there one thing you're missing now..

a motor

Andrew · 11-06-2006, 11:11 AM

sucks dont it?
I'm so ready for the damn thing..

Taco15 · 11-06-2006, 06:10 PM

nice man. I'll be at your place tomm. i'm gonna try to go to the meeting if nothing else comes up. Cant wait to see you engine bay.

whats up the motor?

Andrew · 11-06-2006, 08:13 PM

KMS was out of town today. I tried to call, but then remembered him saying he wouldnt be around.

I'll be calling him first thing in the morning to see whats up. He told me originally supposed to be done late October. Now I'm two weeks into Nov, and no motor.

I'll update tomorrow. See ya around!

jschnatter · 12-26-2006, 12:33 AM

Awsome write-up bro.... your car looks great. I started readin b/c i was interested in doing this myself and now i am doing it! Did you ever find out where the water came from??? hows your weather seals on your passenger door? just curious... I'm buying a rex b4 the new year, I'm actually looking at a white one right now! 88 HF... 1800lbs.........

well, good luck with everything and keep us posted!!

-Jamie

Andrew · 12-26-2006, 11:56 AM

Thanks Jamie. The water is/was coming from the sunroof drain tubes being clogged. I just need to blow them out.
GL on getting into the EF world!

TurboMirage · 12-26-2006, 12:58 PM

where the fuck is your motor? i would ask for compensation.

edit: i would DEMAND compensation

Andrew · 12-27-2006, 11:50 AM

I'm getting $400 taken off the final price.
That means I will only end up paying about $500 TOTAL for this fully built z6. (sold my truck, kinda like free money

)

Should be here this week. They are finishing up the flywheel(lighten/surface) today, so they should ship this week.

Calesta · 12-27-2006, 12:57 PM

Sweeeeeet

Matts96HB · 12-30-2006, 01:49 PM

KMS has taken forever with that build.. been following the thread for awhile.
It should rip when you get it back though, nice work man!

Andrew · 12-30-2006, 03:46 PM

Thanks, and yeah, they have taken WAYY too long.

4 months for a stupid 1.6l motor. BS. plus he's been lying to me...
Stay away from KMS.

After he sends my motor, I'll lay into him and tell him whats on my mind. I don't wanna get him fired up until I've got the motor on the way.

Matts96HB · 12-30-2006, 05:43 PM

I'd be so pissed.
But yeah probably a good idea to wait on giving him a piece of your mind lol. Don't want that z6 to come back with stock internals in a box or something.
When do they claim they are going to ship it?

Andrew · 12-30-2006, 08:48 PM

2-8 weeks AGO.
(hopefully this week)

Matts96HB · 12-30-2006, 08:57 PM

Yeah hopefully, I want to see the rest of the engine swap thread completed.
Its going to look really nice with the wire tuck. I'm thinking of doing one when I swap the LS into my EK hatch.. I'm just not sure yet.

Andrew · 12-30-2006, 10:41 PM

The tuck's arent that bad... just take your time and make sure youve read plenty of info on it.

goldHB94 · 12-31-2006, 05:58 PM

it looks really good! me and my friend did a tuck on his crx gsr swaped and in the end all the headachs and time was worth it!! and i am doingmy eghatch now.

eg6sir · 12-31-2006, 06:08 PM

goldHB94 · 12-31-2006, 06:34 PM
