Hahaha I look for one ;)
On other news. Just bought a single injector. I think cylinder one injector was shot long before it cracked. I Chased all my vacuum lines by ear, by misting and hosing down my motor. I unplugged the injector on cylinder one and there was no change to my motor. I unplugged # 4 and it was almost dieing. Unplug 2 or 3 and the rpms just drop. Going to try to get my rims on tonight and check the brakes:)
On other news I found what I believe to be the only pic of my favorite childhood car. My dads olds 442. I use to take for sale signs out of the window after school and tell him he is not selling that car on me.

^Sorry about the crappy pic quality but its a photocopy of the pic. and no thats not a crack in the fender, Just crap stuck to the pic that would not come off. Had a T-bar roof, no rust anywhere on the car, motor was strong and painted nicely. won many car shows with it.
MY CAR! ITS FIXED!!!. Redid timing, got pissed off took out the new injector after confirming everything else was working. The new injector was stuck closed, i had pushed on the little piece in the hole and it clicked. I reinstalled it and the car runs damn near perfect! Checked my compression again, now it has been timed right, Cy1 170 Cy2 174ish Cy3 179 Cy4 179. Blowing a bit of smoke but i thinks its just build up in cylinder 1 from it not firing. I plan on sea-foaming the whole damn motor hahaha gonna be pretty bad from running on 3 cylinders this whole time. I also broke something.. or it was already broke. It a little cylindrical piece with a vacuum line coming from the intake and another that i was not in a hurry to chase, It has an electrical connector at the top by the cylinder 1 area of the fuel rail. Try to find a pic or the name in my FSM

Valve stem seals are toast on my ca20, Made it official today. Topped up the oil, started smoking like it was a full on fire, Going to have to run sea foam through my motor after i do the valve stems seals. Going to make this motor pass air care, then i will have 2 years to make my CA!8D run the way i want! but after air care, I am going to run this ca20 hard, I want to pop its cherry and make it bleed all over the asphalt!

Did my front brakes tonight, using parts from my 2 sets my front rotors are like new to, now my car is closer to being great. Going to maybe get new rears calipers tomorrow, all my pads are beefy so now i know i have a full set of spares from the calipers Peppper sent me. I then took my car out for my first drive, i loved it! Damn valve stems lol, they will be in on monday. I think i will do the head gasket while i am at it, also clean the valve seats the best i can. Just needs to pass aircare!
Was a good night.... GO GO GADGET SMOKESCREEN! and everything around my car disappears into the night XD.

Oh and some guy that owns a 200 out in that area cut the motor mounts, all the hoses, all the harness, even the fuel lines on both the top and bottom of the fuel filter...., and pulled the motor. all they did was take the fly wheel and clutch and left the motor on the ground beside the car and picked up and threw the tranny on the power steering rack..... they did much more work and more damage then necessary, I want those parts, but stupid ass kids just dont care about anything, just piss's me off. can back that up to. at least 95% of the people i am friends with are older then me, even girlfriends.
all i really came for was the plate from the tranny and the motor. but took the rest as precaution if any thing was messed. if you wanted me to be more gentle you should have just told me and i would have spent the time.
Feb 23, 2011, 12:54 am · #63
Never scene or herd you cut anything or i would have started taking crap off for you and your friend. I went to grab wires for the tach and speedo cable to see it was all chopped. I can understand about grabbing parts or being rushed, but some stuff the power steering line (i wanted for my friends car) costs $560 new (so i was quoted). Not to mention that there are not many parts left for our cars, but to find out that all the good stuff was destroyed for what seemed like no reason, would have saved time and effort to drop the tranny. If you had taken the motor i wouldn't have said a thing as it is a large hassle to take off all that crap off. but to come back a a few days, and a few weeks after to see the motor still there did not help my thoughts.
I will admit i was a little out of place to say most of it but hey, thats happens when people are pissed, Sorry. I did manage however to find some of that stuff online and at ralphs, but ralphs love to rape you up the ass and not even have the courtesy to dry you off in the end. :P

Bored, Cant sleep.. I was thinking about the turbo set up for my ca18det swap and remembered that i have no place on the manifold for the external wastegate. Came across a little adapter that i was thinking about making, funny how that works.

Now to find out what size i need..... HOPE to get the damn info about this blown turbo i bought from a *Friend*. Kinda pissed that i always help him but i turn around to be stranded. Almost thinking of selling the remains of this crap to buy something better...
Edit* I'm mad very mad, water in oil. Doing a comPression test. Sad thing about the 20e is that it is almost as easy to remove the head as opposed to the intake!!
I am JB welding the the f@*#ing water jackets that are rotted. custom cut gasket for the intake and i am going to put a bit of high temp red gasket maker around the water jackets :) I bought a 12 pack of beer. Now its time to finish pulling the last 2 hoses, head bolts, and belts

My comp just got a fucking Trojan and I can't access any web pages. Can't do my online courses little lone quick easy research. Stuck with my 64 gig iPod for now. :( I need to buy some new software and reformat my comp
And WTF is with all the damn turbo hoods popping up so suddenly and so far away? Makes me want to cry
Mar 31, 2011, 5:44 pm · #93
Using a comp made out of the spare parts and a spare tower from all the crap in the garage lol, works pretty good to since it is so quick. transferring my old hard drive files to this comp later after i try to get rid of the trojan.
My replacement head gasket should be in today, i hope since i it was suppose to be in yesterday :(. If it does not get here i think i am going to pop off my fenders and check for rust and take protective measures. Maybe jack the rear up and play with the rear brakes since i have only serviced the fronts. Also looking for a Quaife diff (I know, good luck). seen my end of the month funds......... I should go send off my tax return soon, getting to low on my bank account for what i like. cant wait till the end of May when i can legally sell my house in Nova Scotia
Mar 31, 2011, 6:55 pm · #94
I was looking at that adapter for the wastegate just now, and I was wondering if that would make it so the turbo didn't clear the steering column.... just something I thought I'd share.
Might be easier to just drill and weld on a flange on the manifold. If you can't do it, a shop prolly can for like 50-75 bux.

Yeah. I was thinking about all the clearances with the fender, steering parts and room for my exhaust to bolt up. Thanks for the input tho, I might just have to take it to one of my friends shops and give them an energy drink or 2 and have them drill and weld it.

Which manifold are you going with? Pics?

I have 2 exhaust manifolds. I have to chop either an weld on a larger flange in order for my turbo to bolt onto it. I am thinking of sticking with the XSPOWER one thats already on there as the pipes all seem to be equal length and it also seems to keep it a bit farther from the steering column.

Yeah I have an XS Power manifold for my KA-DE, and it's legit... they use the better grade stainless, the welds are machine-welded, and they have the additional support parts on the flange welds for added strength. You should stick with that one, I agree.
You can weld the stick of 1" tubing right where the junction is above the flange, and below those hose clamps, as seen on the second to last photo. Just don't go with a BIG external gate, even the smaller ones should be plenty. Any need for something more would mean this tubular manifold would crack and break anyways.

I was was thinking of going and putting the hole right where that little plate is on the first photo. I NEVER thought of using the large exposed area on the backside lol. And the Exturnal waste gate hole is not very big so i think i should be fine, already have the flange for it now that i think of it. Thanks!
*forgot to say i am mad, First head gasket is faulty. now my second one has disappeared of the face of the earth and they can not find my paperwork! was told it would be in Tuesday, Wednesday, THURSDAY! and now i find out that the closest place Napa can get is Ottawa :( My NAPA Rep friend is going to see if the company will just pay for one from the Nissan dealer, FML CA20 CURSE
