Pod gauge i finish and all sprayed put the gauges in and ive now wired two of them up power only sensors to do when new engine is installed ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() update on the engine is all parts on bottom end now installed apart from pistons and the oil cooler as i need a new oring which i got today ill get pics for ppl tomorrow problems ive hit is a water pump bolt sheared so ill use easy out kit on that and replace also i have lost one of the locating spigots that locate the head so going to have to get one of them on order Jimbobs Lexus IS200 Turbo! - Sparkystav - 07-11-2020 Looking good mate. The scraping will almost certainly be the dust cover behind the disc. Jimbobs Lexus IS200 Turbo! - Jimbob-T-Lex - 07-11-2020 Thanks mate really ok mate a little bit of metal bending will happen tomorrow then lol Jimbobs Lexus IS200 Turbo! - Jimbob-T-Lex - 11-11-2020 Just a little update new oring delivered today for the oil cooler so installed that all onto the block so its ready for the oil cooler and oil sensors for my gauges ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Next is installing my walbro fuel pump as long as i can find my soldering iron! The news on the pistons rings is they are going to arrive till the new year which is very frustrating but hey such as life The other problem is the head locating bush that i need to get as one has gone poof!! lol
Jimbobs Lexus IS200 Turbo! - Sparkystav - 11-11-2020 good update mate, any reason your not removing the cooler? Jimbobs Lexus IS200 Turbo! - Jimbob-T-Lex - 11-11-2020 just because the other connections on the cooler not 100% what they are so i juust thought no harm in leaving on, only problem there might be is the distance it comes out. Im sure i read somewhere that it is abit of a squeeze. Do you know what the other connections on the cooler are mate? Jimbobs Lexus IS200 Turbo! - Sparkystav - 11-11-2020 Just coolant mate, its just a compact cooler, problem is finding a double ended piece to replace the cooler one. ie one end into the block other into the new take off. Jimbobs Lexus IS200 Turbo! - Jimbob-T-Lex - 11-11-2020 So for ease best to keep the original oil cooler on aswell then? Jimbobs Lexus IS200 Turbo! - Sparkystav - 11-11-2020 at the moment, but im looking for them connectors, if i find them ill let you know Jimbobs Lexus IS200 Turbo! - Jimbob-T-Lex - 11-11-2020 Thats brill mate cheers for that much appreciated |
