Zetsaz Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Every time I see your car and those ITBs I want to sell all my car stuff and just start with a super clean earlier model and go ITBs. Speed be damned. It's looking real good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the average Z guy thinks I am nuts doing these mods to my low miles series 1:) So far not a single hole or permanent thing has been done to my car though. Thanks!

tioga Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 (edited) I got a reply today from Jenvey on the additional air ports. They said they sent me the “wrong ones” a few hours later a package arrived from jenvey with a new longer set that looks like it might do the trick. Now had they sent me 6 instead of 4 we would be in business. Which one do you have? Note the barb I turned off of the short one. They both had a barb originally.

DuffyMahoney Posted September 16, 2019 Author Share Posted September 16, 2019 I am going to leave that port stock. I just tapped my intake to NPT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tioga Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 I was just curious which one you had. Something else I did was to get the light weight return springs for the throttles. They have two weights. They normally come with the heavy. When three are connected as triples it is rather stiff. The light version is perfect.

DuffyMahoney Posted September 16, 2019 Author Share Posted September 16, 2019 Mine seem fine, but driving will tell, I have a few adjustments on each section of the intake linkage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DuffyMahoney Posted September 18, 2019 Author Share Posted September 18, 2019 Built a passenger kick plate out of aluminum. I will powder coat it to match my stock one (sort of darker matchbox )This ecu location is about the best location I can find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuffyMahoney Posted September 28, 2019 Author Share Posted September 28, 2019 dampener doctors rebuild my stock Dual v crank pulley (keeping AC) . Then this is a 60-2 trigger from Hoke. I had to lathe off the back slightly. The trigger ring was not made for my pulley. Works awesome. It’s a great kit. I will have it professionally epoxy painted black. They must of rattle canned it.

tioga Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 I would want my ring attached to the center hub not the rubber mounted outer portion. There is movement in the outer ring depending on load of the alternator, a/c compressor and motor acceleration. It should definitely be mounted to the center hub. No car manufacturer Ever mounts the trigger wheel to the outer hub of a harmonic balancer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tioga Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 Here is a 36-1 I made on a Rabello damper. Here is the sensor watching it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tioga Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 I did a kick plate just like that for my fuse box. My ECU is mounted to another plate where the stock ignition box was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuffyMahoney Posted September 28, 2019 Author Share Posted September 28, 2019 Tioga. That looks great. the balancer on the outer ring isn’t perfect. But it will work fine. Lots of high end motors/ builds use his kit. It’s super well designed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tioga Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 Is there not enough room to use a wheel like mine? I had to turn mine down some on a lathe for clearance but it fits fine after thinning. I have a second one in 60-2 I meant to do the same mods to and swap out but never got around to it.

tioga Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 (edited) the 1981 zx turbo’s have a trigger wheel made onto them stock damper. Edited September 28, 2019 by tioga Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DuffyMahoney Posted September 30, 2019 Author Share Posted September 30, 2019 Well I found a 2nd hole I didn’t know I had. I tested it and I should be able to fit all wiring with zero new holes in the car. So that’s a full efi install with zero holes or Permanent mods! Stoked. 02 sensors go through the shifter hole. Tps, air temp, coolant temp, home signal and injectors through the choke hole. R35 coils, crank trigger, oil pressure, fuel pressure, dual positives and ground will go through the hole below the stereo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuffyMahoney Posted October 2, 2019 Author Share Posted October 2, 2019 I got way further on my ITB install. My kick panel mount worked perfectly and I have about 2 spare inches on the wiring harness. I successfully installed it all with zero cutting of my stock harness and zero new holes which I’m pretty happy with. Now the hard part. Making all the shrink wrap and loom look clean.

DuffyMahoney Posted October 2, 2019 Author Share Posted October 2, 2019 I think this is how I will run my injector wires. Then y off at every runner. It would take some time. But look reallynice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
