That would be nice! Next house I get will have one!

The UPS thing is no go.. I put in a 50 mile radius for the job search and....



St. Joe is quite a hike.

Awesome custom rig for holding up the sensor bracket^



Previous owner of the intake painted it black but it had gotten all scratched up in places. I was thinking about sanding it down to a "brushed steel" look, but went with re-coating it instead.



I took out the corner markers because I plan on matching them like I did with the SXT.


Aaaand the last pic:



The bumper is just sticking in place, not actually re-attached because I'm not done working I just wanted to see how my grill looked

WTF. Needs bottom teef! Sweet solenoid bracket holder majig!

Here's the new badge I got from GreeNeons03




BOV and everything is on, but the damn shrink tubing and stuff fell off during the 2nd test drive and I threw a CEL for IAT sensor. Also there is a high pitched whining sound intermittently that I am thinking is a belt but I can't pinpoint it.

Video: -uploading now... give it 5 min-

I was also working on getting all the crappy red powdercoating off my ne-used catch can, it's coming along nicely.



I forgot to take some underhood shots, and a shot of the front end, but those will be coming soon. Keep checking back for those of you out there who still follow this!

Yeah UPS isn't hiring now. They usually always are, but not now. They layed off 23 drivers, so those drivers are now working in the building... You do not want to work at the Jamestreet location that close to you. Hear bad things about that place.

Would be a good idea to get a checkvalve with the catch can. Glad you got the BOV up and running.

VIDEO is up: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lyPNBgRFgBQ

I marked the times when it squeals most obvious but I don't have the greatest hearing so I might have missed some times. Sound familiar to anyone?

I don't hear nothing squealing. I just hear the BOV and the engine running.

Maybe this video will help. This is part 2, where it is squealing basically the entire time on and off.

The third one finally uploaded. Short and sweet. You can hear it around 16-21 seconds.

Haha this vid reminds me I need to do something more... permanent about keeping my short ram intake from touching my battery's terminal.

I had a feeling it was going on the SRT.

Don't hear any squealing at all. When you gave the car throttle in the firt vid, it squealed but that was just the HKS BOV. *shrugs*

Bah. It sounds like a goddamn turkey, it's just louder at some times than others. I'll try to coax the sound some more today for ya. What's a good place to buy shrink tubing?

Looks at chat box...

Harbor Freight.

Hmm not a fan of the extra lettering on the SRT, but to each their own I suppose

Yep, I'm trying to make it my own and not just another cookie cutter SRT-4.

Thanks Stephen. I ended up going to Radio Shack and picked up a grab bag of assorted lengths and diameters of shrink tubing, as well as some butt connectors. I figured I'd cancel out the good deal of a low price by driving 40 miles round trip to HF.

I still haven't had time to track down exactly what is squealing- I should probably do that tomorrow. If you can't hear it in this video, GTFO of the thread- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kZJNSLQ5Llk

New pics:


Corner markers are out for painting.


My temporary fix for the battery terminal touching the SRI


Pic I took while re-wiring IAT sensor


I'll probably cap off the plug on the SRI and make this just an atmospheric vent. It's not doing ANY good as it is.

And some chomper pics:

Hear it in that video. Get a BOP dude. Quit running the surge valve with it.

Front bumper needs chompers on the lower section

And that fuel line going to the intake... Not a good idea if its a Z like that. Just cap off that nipple on the intake and put a breather filter on the end of the valve cover.

Coming up in the near future I will be doing a battery relocation to the trunk, then the next thing will be the swap and MegaSquirt install.

When I get some extra money I'm getting that crash bar.

On the side today and yesterday I've been working on painting the corner markers and I decided to match the center console bezel. Pics coming soon.

Aforementioned pics:







Also, I took care of THIS:




with THIS:

Very nice!!! Love it all!

Lol I love the teeth. But you need to make your car klook more agressive with eyelids!

Block off plate installed finger tight, gotta wait a few hrs then I'm going back to torque it down.

Thanks for the comments guys. I considered eyelids but for now I'm leaving it without.

What RTV did you end up using?

Love your avatar You should resize it though makes the screen long and you have to scroll left to right!

Let me know how it works out for you. The RED RTV that is...

I just noticed something. Fog bezels need to be colormatched IMO. Will look real slick!

The weather was fantastic yesterday so I cleaned up both Neons. Only problem is now I am home by myself and have no way to get both cars to a decent place to take some pictures. Oh well, here's some garage shots.














And save the best for last:

i like the last one....

Thanks

Awesome shots even in a tight garage.

I like the last one also

Possible life mod: potential job tomorrow. Interview at 11! Wish me luck guys!

so does the red one run or what i am still so confused to this day
