So long story short I bought this Type R of who many of you will know as Dal. I have now owned this car since June 2011, and well lots has happened to the car since.. but I will start this thread fresh starting with when I torn it down..

Oct 2011 it was a complete teardown and rebuilding this car with what I want and with my standards, no more short cuts.

This is how it looked when I drove it home for the first time

UPDATES ON LAST PAGE USUALLY - APRIL 19th, 2012

just thought I'd give you guys a comparison shot of my OEM K20 Harness beside the new Rywire K20 Mil Spec Harness

http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7144/6747165539_0d47ac5b43_b.jpg

Thought I'd post some updates on the motor itself..

Nothing special going on, but started to pull some stuff off such as the powersteering pump, alternator, waterpump, coolant housings, PRC manifold, TB, etc... have LOTS of cleaning to do.. and gotta start figuring out a list of parts to order.

I went to Wekfest SF in Feb to meet up with cousin Anh his crew ATS Garage and meet Ryan@Rywire, John@1033mm, Matt@ICB, Projectonethirty and E90post Members that I have become friends with when I was in the E92 game.

Got there just in time for roll in!

BACK HOME with motivation and inspiration from wekfest!

Well I am back from Wekfest SF and boy was it a experience! Coming from where I am from I have never seen a event soo big for a car show!

It was nice meeting all you guys (You know who you are!) and I have gotten much motivation to get going and finishing my build so I can enjoy my car this summer instead of always fixing and changing things throughout the summer!

So to start on the latest update,

I called Rywire and David got me my Brake Line Tuck Kit sent out to me before I left for SF and seeing them in person I am just excited to have gone through with tucking my brake lines and already imagining the clean firewall!

I also contacted Frank at Downstarinc and got all my chassis, Engine and Tranny Bolts ordered up just so I can pick them up from him at Wekfest which worked out nicely!

Less then 12 hours later of being back home I got a phone call from the body shop saying they just got my car painted and that I should come down and check how things turned out. I was super happy with the job then done!

Here are some pics!

I am currently waiting for all my OEM parts to get here for refreshing the motor such as seals, gaskets, timing chains, guides, tensioners, RBC manifold, etc. and hopefully the motor will be in the car in no time!

The black headliner I got a professional to wrap the headliner with a black material used in BMW's. and then I scotched padded, primed and painted the plastic pillars and small pieces all semi-gloss black so it looks "OEM black plastic"

soo got my some of my goodies from Mike@K-Tuned!

K-Tuned Billet TPS Version 2
K-Tuned Billet RBC TB Adapter
K-Tuned Upper Coolant Housing with Filler Cap & -16AN Fitting
K-Tuned Lower Swivel Coolant Housing with -16AN fitting
K-Tuned Billet Throttle Cable Bracket with K series DC2 length cable
K-Tuned Coolant Recirculation Hose

Other things I've done was I got all the seals, chain, guides, tensioner and some of the gaskets.

I had my valve cover powder coated Project Mu Teal as well as my Circuit Hero K-swap intake pipe. Also had -10AN bungs welded to the back of the valve cover for my oil catch set up.

The motor and transmission has been dressed up in hardware by Frank@Downstarinc!

Well here are how things are looking for now! still some things to change such as the coil cover, and the valve cover hardware.

As you can see in the following photo there is a big difference from the OEM 62mm bore of the manifold opening to the 74mm Bore of the Skunk2 TB. Can't wait to get it back all port matched =P

Got Trillion Industries to Port my RBC manifold and K-Tuned Adapter.

OEM RBC Bore is 62mm, and I had a 74mm Skunk2 TB and the K-Tuned RBC/RRC TB adapter was a 70mm bore...

So I had Derek@Trillion Bored my RBC to 70mm since thats the biggest that you should be going before you get to close to the IACV port. Then he taper bored the K-Tuned Plate from 70mm to 74mm to port match the Skunk2 TB!

as of right now motor and everything has been taking out again as I decided that the subframe was gross... and i sent that to powder coating as well! along with some other things.

And now you guys after scrolling through everything are caught up with how things stand as of March 27th, 2012

With that said here are some quick shots of the Circuit Hero / ASC metal shop Custom 3-Point Strut Bar for DC2, these are veryyyy limited and I am the first in Canada to have one of these done for me! Thanks Gil!

It is currently raw in these photos so you can see all the welds and such, but it is currently at Calgary Powder Coatings also with the other parts I am getting coated

'Mil-spec harness and plug plate'

in aviation this is s.o.p, we use plastic/metal cannon plugs through bulkheads (firewall in your case) always, very smart of you sir.

all cars should have this if you rip apart your engine frequently, takes 3 seconds to disconnect.

^ THIS!!

Having worked with avionics type harness and cannon plugs, I can't wait till the day when automotive start to use this type of connectors.

For the OP, why did you had to grind off all the spot welds?

So I have been not thinking about the car much lately. and havent done anything to it for about 3 weeks, but I finally got some parts back from powder coating!

The valve cover was already on the motor so I left it out of this photo.

Hey guys,

sorry for the lack of updates for the past month..

if you guys are following me on instagram (reggieatfourplusone) some of you, you would see every update for my car to date since I take iphone photos of literally every part i get and what i do on the car.

so for the time being, i will upload all the pics of my phone since my last update.

I will start taking photos with my camera when the car is back together... i have a June 8th deadline to make a local car show... so fingers crossed everything will arrive before then!

Hopefully these photos will be self explanatory =D

After waiting for 2 months and a bit it finally arrived. The ASC/Circuit Hero Roll Bar. Many of you have probably already seen this roll bar in Circuit Heros EG build as well as in ATS*ANH's Black ITR! I am super happy with the construction of this bar. the Connecting points are interlocking and super clean :)

So spend a day and a bit prepping and painting the cage then 3 hours of trimming the interior panelling, and fitting the cage in here is how things turned out.

Also painting my J's C-Pillar bar "Mag Blue" as well while we were at it!

Sorry for the lack of updates...

been very busy as I am moving to a different city at the end of summer and I have been having clutch problems... my Exedy Hyper Single was slipping, so I replaced it with a Comp Clutch Stage 2... (HUGE DOWN GRADE but i needed something within 24hrs since I have a dyno time booked.. and had to reschedule twice because of clutch problems...)

The Comp Clutch took a shit within 20 days... and the springs all broke out of the clutch disc.... COMP CLUTCH FTL!

Thanks to Hugh @ Evasive I now got a ORC Hyper Single which I am excited to put in hopefully tomorrow... I will get a full shoot done on the car soon, maybe even a video feature and a up-to-date mod list for you guys

for now enjoy these dyno videos =P

It's quite a pain.... traffic is terrible here... and the roads are horrible as well.. you guys have it good in calgary in the sense calgary repairs roads atleast.. vancouver is full of dips and potholes everywhere.

Then theres the crazy amounts of rainfall

but lucky me.. the skytrain or my own feet take me to all the the places i need to go so car only comes out ever so often.
