- MSP 1145
I think i'm going to put a build thread together for 935.
Looking forward to working on it!
Looking forward to working on it!
For adjustable seat brackets.So,I'm nearing the end of my MSP forged engine rebuild and starting to turn my attention the interior ie the seats to start with.My factory ones are tearing and hard to find factory replacements.
I've seen the MS3 seats on ebay for about $400 a pair and even some ppl using the WRX seats.Both seem like a viable option and color matching is pleasing enough.
Any advise from you guys on wither i should go with something like that or a different route like the Sparco/Recaro and just do the driver seat since nearly 100% of the time i'm the only person in the car.
Cost effective wise and possible hassles with fabricating,adding in that its a daily driver so comfort is still high on the needs.Thanks
(forgot to add i'm 5'10 and 34" waist)
my oil return O ring is failing again. noticed a small puddle of oil where i parked at work yesterday. i'm running the stock turbo for those that don't know. the o ring was replaced about 2 years ago. is there a better solution? a quality gasket? rtv? gasket with rtv? gasket with o ring and rtv? lol
I had the same problem with oring failures, switch to a gasket and you won't have anymore issues.
For anyone building, a spare motor is the way to go.Looks like I'm getting my engine back from the machine shop this week.Then back off to the builder where he will be putting on all the new forged internals,Pope eng stuff,MFactory LSD,Doc B treatment,and AWR/Whiteline bushings for the engine mount and control arms,etc...
never ending list but this is kinda major compared to the rest of the list.Mostly cosmetic.
Just bought new rear Hawk pads so i fig when the fronts (which are at about 1/2 way now)go bad ill do the MS6 or Evo 8/9 Brembo conversion then.
Need to do the tinting and get a touch-up pen to hit the small shop dings.
Never thought it would be a 5 month ordeal to have the engine machined and rebuilt.I miss my car something fierce.
To anyone else rebuilding an engine plan ahead and get ready to wait unless you can do a lot of it yourself.
Finding a top notch machine shop/engine builder,even close to NASCAR country was hard with wait lists from 2-5 months on average plus a few weeks for the job.
