I saw the myspace bulletin before I saw the update in this thread... Cant wait to see some kill vid's C...

Finally man! You're almost there!

 

I ahve missed so much hahaha. So the car is almost done????

 

...and that make's me jealous

here's some more pictures:




that day i have put on some mods on my car too, and i happen to have a camera with me, so, i took some pix of your car too.

you need better high performance axle and BTW we test fit my s/c fit's like glove but i think turbo will be fine

 

this thing should move, i hope all of your motor/tranny mounts are polyurethane. what size exaust are you going with? i wouldnt go less than 2.5" all the way back considering the shorter length of your car and assuming you will run a single exhaust. ever think about a custom y-pipe like the 2nd gen CL/TL. I guess these are all after thoughts, you probably just want to hear the motor turn over. THe worst part is when they start the motor, but you still can't drive it yet... or have you started it already? ;]

 

FUCK that thing looks monstrous. Kudos.

custom intake pipe anyone? I can see the filter (i think) but thats about it. How's that gonna work out G?

 

nice nice...we're getting there guys.

 

wow looking good

 

Lookin good, can't wait to see it fire up

 

WOW, man this is gonna be huge. As for a Dallas meet with Cocoa there and the chance to see the 3.5CL in action... Man, just name it I am so down for a Texas meet. I'll drive there no problem.

 

So... CoCo... What's it gonna be done?





I saw that you're not telling us, so I thought I'd be a smartass.

 

Yeah look sick, seems you gonna need to fabricate a CAi. What about pulleys and is that still juiced?

 

This pic is not the updated pic of my car. That pic doesnt show the radiator and fans in place. More has been done after those pics. I am still using the UR pullies. I took out the AC pully and lines. I took out the cruise control lines. I have polyurethane mounts in the rear and for the tranny mount. And yes, this will still be running on 125 shot of nitrous. I have NGK spark plugs with a heat range of 7 to do the work (same plugs as an Evo).

 

Once it's back in my hands, expect to see the moonroof cut out, and stripped some more.

 

I'll be back in Dallas 3 weeks after the car is done. I'm having it tuned out here, and want to run it for awhile out here to make sure everything is fine.

 

Chris you gotta bring that beast back to Texas, we got OK people wanting to drive down here and i bet everybody in Texas would drive to Dallas for the meet. i'm thinking BBQ at the Grapevine Lake.

 

[QUOTE=Cocoa] I have polyurethane mounts in the rear and for the tranny mount.QUOTE]

So only 2 of the mounts are poly? Where / what are the mounts from? Custom?

 

How does June 24th sound?

 

Can't wait to see it running. We will have a meet once its done. I want to check it out.

 

COCOA's Commin outta the shop meet!!!
any due date??

 

yup SoCal meet first lol!

 

im down for a meet.

 

cocoa - anyone who asks after it's done, just say, "it bolts right in."

 

Too early. I don't expect to be in Dallas till late July.

 

so it'll be pretty soon. remember that i'm to be first in line for that race, bro. or should i say, get my ass handed to me.

 

So this means another mega meet! Theme of this one will be "All About Cocoa"!

 

So only the tranny & rear mount are poly? Where/what are the mounts from? Custom made?

Shift linkage & shift box from a 5spd AC or CL F-motor?

Good fuck'n work

 

So in the end how much has all of this cost$$$$$$$$

 

done????

wow, sorry if you've addressed this earlier, but i dont have much time to access AZ, damn leadership school.

 

Shift linkage is from the CLS, the clutch pedal was modded from both the CL and the accord's, and the shifter we're switching over to the accord's for better clearance for the hand brake.

 

Almost.

 

And yes, the rear and tranny mount were custom made. The side mount is stock, and as for the front, they found a mount laying around the shop that happen to fit perfectly.

 

Late July sounds awesome.

 

wow, bet the light at the end of the tunnel is looking a little brighter now.

 

so what kind of engine is this? J something? what car is that engine from?

 

ok nvm, its the cls engine...just wondering...

1. of all the cl, isn't the best one the 2003 cls 6 spd? are those RARE?

2. The 6 spd that it uses...is it the same one on the RSX type 2, OR the current accord ex v6 6spd?

thanks

 

1. CLS engine stroked to a 3.5 liter. All CLS engines are the same. Just that 03 had an option for a 6 speed LSD tranny, which I have. About 3500 of them were made.

2. There are some differences between the CLS 6 speed, and the accord's. The LSD being one of them, the accord doesnt have it. Not sure about anything else like gear ratios, bolt patterns, or sensors.

 

Hell yes. So much more weight off my back.

 

so how much are you going to sell the Z3 for when you get the beast back?

 

I'm leaving to Button Willow tonight for the race tracks. My friend is running his Evo up at the "Big Willow". The races are from 7am-5pm with 30min intervals. (This is circuit btw, not drag). I will not have any updates until we get back on Monday.

And to answer your question asianspec, I don't plan on selling it.

 

so ur shipping both cars to texas? How far is the drive to button willow
