Well reliability is overrated...

The guy had made an address change and never received the title. Turns out it was returned to the secretary of state, but I was able to get it sent to me after I had a power of attorney signed by the guy, so I could request title and sign the title over to myself... Took a while to get everything worked out as we believed it would be arriving any day, and then it needed to be resent...

Well so far it's been running good and have no complaints! Picked up a nice double din to fill the gap from the missing stereo, and will be installing as soon as I can find my soldering iron... Recently beat a Focus ST during some roll racing in Mexico, so far the sleeper is undefeated lol no big fish yet though desperately need dsmlink so I can run a better tune...

Love it! Glad to see you fixing it up

Well was able to drive the Galant again after 2 months of being at school!! Really missed it, and was able to take advantage of some boost season! Still needs a lot of work, but it is 24yrs old and a 1/3000 car... Hopefully next summer I can raise enough funds for my 400whp setup goals...

Well picked up DSMlink a few weeks back so it'll finally be getting a much needed tune whenever I get back in town... That brings me to the next dilemma, tune/work on my car or TX2K for spring break....Also picked up a speed density sensor and gm IAT, should be buying an electronic boost control solenoid in the next few weeks!

TX2K

Well getting pretty excited after many months of not getting to be with my car, I'll be back home end of next week!!

The parts stash is pretty decent:

Aeromotive A1000 AFPR
Fuel Injector Clinic Blue Max 1450cc Injectors
Omni 4 Bar MAP sensor
GM IAT
Parking Brake cables
and potentially a bumper fix...

Haven't driven it in about 8 months... so hopefully all these installs go easy and quick, and I should be able to start tuning!!!

Well injectors made it in the car, and put on the valve cover I painted back in the fall, so now it has a wrinkle black w/polished letters mitusbishi valve cover! Much cleaner looking than the previous peeling blue shaved letters... Pics will be posted soon....

Mitsu family...another VR-4!!

 

[Gamble]

I like it

 

[Lights Out Chitown]

Well engine bay still makes me cringe from all the wire that the previous owner mangled, but at least the center of attention won't be a peeling blue valve cover, think the wrinkle black w/polished letters turned out pretty nice!!

 

[Mook]

looks good

Well slowly getting it tuned, first time tuning anything that wasn't carbureted, so it's definitely been a slower process, but seems to be getting there...It idles fairly well on the new 1450's, but would like to fine tune it some more before I start on my cruise/wot tuning... Thinking it's debut show will be the fiesta days car show, but I'm taking it slow tuning as it is a little above my realm of knowledge...

 

[Lights Out Chitown]

Well it's been a very interesting couple days... I've been a part of tuning many things, but never been by myself on it, tuning the gvr4 has been a stressful challenge as this is a little different than anything I've helped tune, I've been learning a ton on my first solo efi tune!! Not finished yet, but I'm definitely on my way to getting #313 set on kill!

Was ready to call it quits for tonight and insure it to do some cruise/wot tuning... got out of the car and there was a puddle of fuel, seems like the return line(Factory hardline) called it quits...

 

[Lights Out Chitown]

Well the gvr4 is now getting a 20Gal Fuel Cell, AEM 380lph Fuel Pump(Inline), New braided return line, Russell Fuel Filter(pre-pump), and Glowshift fuel level gauge... At least now I'll know my fuel system is solid now!

 

[Lights Out Chitown]

Well here's a much overdue update with the fuel cell that I installed. As you can tell it's streetcar sized but it fit well and still left a little room in the trunk for my detailing supplies along with a little space for groceries!! Still need to hook up the fuel gauge I bought but for now I'm just checking visually every once in awhile... Next step fixing a nasty bit of idle surge...

Also a photo of the new pump and filter that was installed...

I apologize for the deterioration of the thread, I'll try to resubmit photos that were lost due to PB failure...

 

[Lights Out Chitown]

Well delayed update, but car was tuned by R & D Performance, but has now been sold... Sad to see it go, but it was time for another v8 chapter in my life again

How did you like working with John? He did all the work on my old evo.

 

[Lights Out Chitown]

I only communicated with him on the phone, but his pricing was more than fair, and he got it done quick, so no complaints from me. I'm told it drove well on the tune, but I've been out of state doing an internship with Chrysler so the car sold before I had the chance to drive it myself
[MENTION=5]Mook[/MENTION] Honestly you're part of the reason why I chose him.
