I've been working on it!! Parts from last summer have been getting installed, and I've driven it around the driveway. I'll try to post a video when I get a chance.

Congrats! my forever project runs too! It's a good feeling.

You're lucky you weren't called out by the old project police! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Those "old project police" can get a bit concerned about their jack stands. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Right now I"m running into charging issues. I have the 02 Stratus RT / 02 Mitsubishi Eclipse GT 3.0 V6 engine, and the ECU/PCM used to control the alternator.

Does anyone have enough knowledge about these alternators to know what to do with the 4 wires in the clip? It has 4 little wires.
It has the BIG wire; it's pretty ***** obvious where it goes... to the positive terminal on the starter, right?? (actually, it does, because I have a 0 guage battery cable going from there to the battery)





also: What pictures, updates, etc would you like to see? I've done a ton of tinkering, and can take pics. =-) I just don't know what would be of interest. requests?

Wiring in some more parts my dad gave me. Coil on plug setup from an engine swap he did. They came off of 3.5v6 from 300M special. :-)

The turbo from the 2.5 turbo setup is such a tease... at least when I get to that point again where I can afford parts, it will be easy to plumb.

Charging issues resolved. I pulled the alternator and regulator from the 2.5 turbo engine and mounted it on the 3.0 in the car. It's almost done, just needs the field wire connected.

Next is the stereo... j/k. I'll drive it first. ;-)

I drove it...

I had to pull the COPS. MSIII extra didn't want to run the high current coil on plug setup, so Im back to running the dizzy with the single coil... and looking for honda COPS. they are the 3 wire style, and then I'll be going full sequential with coil on plugs.

for now, I *am* playing with the stereo design, because I have almost all of the parts gathered for that.

I'm waiting on the 3 wire cops; I think I fried my igniter in my coil again. I need to pull it apart and take a DVOM to it; or buy the 3 wire cops and wire them in and be done with the dizzy.

Yeah, for sure on Route 66. :-) maybe even RRC-14.

Snow...

Seems all of my build pictures have disappeared from the external server.. I'll upload them to the thread here over the next couple of years.

so...

in the time since I posted last, a few things changed.

I've gone through 30 ish hospital trips, just as many doctor trips, multiple visits to Huntsman's infusion clinic...

also have changed my skillset and tooling. 6 different cnc machine setups, 4 different 3d printers, and 3 different 3d scanner setups.

this car has sat, started getting parted out, found some surface rust and leaves... and is currently on the hoist in my dad's shop.

I had the privilege of 3d scanning a flared car at PMB to get some measurements and am currently selling of some parts to fund building a set of custom parts for this car.

mostly interior parts, and the stuff for running cars. I can't drive much right now anyway, so I'm just using the car as therapy and something to keep my mind off the hospital trips.
