Your car makes me drool.

I think since you have the red and blue thing going on, you need a little bit of yellow then a nice big red S somewhere on a yellow background! But I love the look of the car.

DarkFireGT · Feb 21, 2008

Looks great. I think I actually like the lighter blue best. But the powder work is outstanding.

Sweet!

im thinking a chrome RAD cover piece would set of the blue nicely..none the less looks great man !

very nice! that blower is beging for a superman logo. do it do it

Looks sweet man! How's about powdering the new blower pulley?
I can't wait for nicer weather so that you and emay can have a kickass photo shoot together

I would've gotten billet caps to match the oil cap instead of powdering them as well.

I've got the PMP kit and Jegs pieces sitting here awaiting install. Going to pick up wiring and such this weekend. Know of any good write-ups for installation?

you are gonna write it, right?

Definitely. I've found bits and pieces places, but not real good write-up yet.

Since I have TWO cars to do it to, I should become a pro by the time I'm done lol.

Also coming soon will be a write-up on the CHE k member brace with torque limiters. I think there's plenty of write-ups on springs/shocks/panhard bars, so I won't do anything on those.

Dark,

Honestly there isn't enough work to have a write up about. The use of solenoids is one of those common sense things.. specially in the PMP kits. They supply you with the instructions on how they mount them. and from there it's a matter of grounding one wire on each solenoid and bringing the other inside the car to your switch..

From there you dig up a switched power source bring that to the toggle, your other lead you already brought in goes to the on side of the toggle.. and your done.

I will tell you all right now, there is massive holding power in running these dual solenoids. I told heavy the other night, when you engage the solenoids, it's an incredibly strong hold on the break pressure.

that could be said for most write ups. for some it is really easy, for others any help to make it easier is greatly appreciated.

Can't argue with you there I guess..

Dark, get your camera and pencil ready.. get to work..

Unfortunately, I didn't receive the instructions with mine. Just braided lines and fittings. So I'm totally in the dark. I try not to do anything the first time without at least a bit of guidance.

Do you run the positive wire from both sides into the car, or do you tie them together and just make one lead coming into the cabin? Do you just ground the solenoid to the body?

I'm sure I could go out and wing it. But with having to do two cars, I don't want to waste an entire day. So I'm just trying to get as much info as possible so when I go out there tomorrow, I don't run into any hiccups.

And I definitely plan on a write-up. I need to get a "write-up" camera, so I'm not lugging my SLR around in the garage. Maybe I'll pick one up tomorrow while the garage is heating up.

That's funny...I got the same thing from PMP yesterday too!!!

DarkFireGT · Feb 23, 2008

I received some instructions from PMP on another board. It covers the stuff I had questions on. If all goes well, I should have a write-up done tonight.
