Baby got a new pair of shoes today.

With my frustration level at a all time high, I took a few days off this week to decompress.


I still have electrical issues, but these are due to removing a few to many items on the original wiring. I need to wire in some resistors where the emissions control valves used to be so my air pump will work and I need to add piggyback relays to the after market fan setup so signals can be sent to the ECU so it knows at what level the fans are running.


I also have pretty major fuel leaks. Looks as thought the primary pulsation dampener gave up the ghost and my custom primary rail fitting had a hair line crack at the weld. Probably caused by a moment from the fuel line to the pressure regulator. At least it happened during buildup and test and not after I had completed the car and see it go up in flames a few days later. Redid the fitting and Spyder's getting me a new fuel dampener.


The passenger rear fender well has a plastic liner in place now to get rid of the aero drag pocket the Re street diffuser would have caused. The liner came from an old driver side front fender liner.

Fixed some fuel leaks still have others.


Wiring diagram for the fan setup done, waiting for the Spal temp sensor to come in.

Finally fixed all the pinhole fuel leaks, had to abandon some fittings and weld on permanent AN fittings on both the primary and secondary fuel rails. The last pin hole leak was so small that I was getting ~1 mm bubbles every 2 seconds.


Anyways, got the fan setup done, with all the ecu integration and I got my 5.2 inch fan for the oil cooler. Need to figure out a clever mounting arrangement for it.


Still have an issue with the air pump not turning on, even with all emissions sensors connected. So I need to figure out what wrong or figure out an alternative control, maybe something connected to the 9 volt resistor for the fuel pump.

Nice build!
