crank sensor is mounted, fitted 6 long bolts to the flywheel as markers. the sensors maximum distance to the markers is 2mm :| all the bolts where within 0.4mm length of each other but its tough to measure exact clearance. during run in ill remove the sensor to see if theres any chunks taken out of it...
following up from a previous photo of the coolant lines under the plenum, now the vac lines and air control ontop of that.
I've made up and fitted the new braided brake and clutch lines in -3AN speedflow teflon. switched to a master cylinder of the same size (15/16") but more 4 ports on it instead of 2. made life easier.
For some reason I had it in my head the MSD 6A was up to the job of driving the CDI coils, having a think about how the wiring was going to work made me realise why theyre a $300 unit and the M&W PRO14 is $1200. So returned the MSD and sourced an Autronic CDI 500R, cheaper than M&W and no hassles receiving inputs/triggers from the SM4. Which leads to my next error: measuring the pencil coils. I was confident they would fit, but turns out they're too long.
Have trimmed some plastics and with shorter spark plugs and making a nylon bush to seal the well it should be good to go.
Lesson learnt: dont bother comparing real life to the CAD drawings, just measure your previous unit.
Removed stereo which was 3kg's + headunit and over 5kgs of dynamat from the 4 doors. i should check to the boot...
Currently working with the auto elec planning ECU mounting and the looms. bulk connectors are a gift from the gods. cant wait to fit it up.
