Re: -89 Piazza Turbo HBL - Kaizen Racing Project 2

:tonqe: great work, I see you’ve been busy. Did you do the battery relocation work yourself? Yes indeed, with a little help from a car electrician collegue! It was not as easy as "on Youtube" but still not so bad. Planning on doing a big effort on a wire tuck, and cosmetic upgrade in the ...

Re: -89 Piazza Turbo HBL - Kaizen Racing Project 2

Let's update a bit around my installation of the stereo and Playstation console in the trunk! Since I'm a real Fast and the Furious nerd I thought it would be cool to have the same setup as the guy in the white Honda playing Gran Turismo before Brians first race. A PS1 console was not hard to find –...

Re: -89 Piazza Turbo HBL - Kaizen Racing Project 2

I take it your car is not stored in your garage over the winter period? Boy, am I slow to answer and write here... I used to spend hours every day at our biggest car forums here in Sweden... :yawinkle: As you understand the car is stored in a garage during winter where I can't work on it as much as...

Re: -89 Piazza Turbo HBL - Kaizen Racing Project 2

I've decided to try and post with some more regularity this upcoming season instead of collecting a lot of images and info and do bulk posts! :P So since I put the car away in november it has been patiently waiting in the winter storage and I have been fidgeting with other stuff for it, such as maki...

Re: Piazza_man project

Nothing specific in mind, just a lot going on everywhere in the engine bay (but I'll guess that's how an 80s turbo engine looked like) :P

I'm thinking about switching some hoses for black nylon covered hoses with better looking clamps, and think that would lift the look as well.

Re: Piazza_man project

Nice one, thank you! :cheers: How about relocation of any hoses, cables and wires, have you done that to tidy up the look and function of anything? I washed my engine just before this years big event JapDays, and it got a lot better for sure, but I could spend an entire weekend just cleaning the eng...

Re: Piazza_man project

Listen, is it possible for you to write down your engine bay mods? Since I'm looking at your pics and realize I really have to do something about my own engine bay with cables and wires going everywhere... :rolleyes: For example, my "Turbo" logo on the top is covered by an ugly wire right ...

Re: -89 Piazza Turbo HBL - Kaizen Racing Project 2

Well winter is slowly passing by and I've been making plans all season long! :supz: During these dark and cold days I have been stocking up on parts and modifications that will begin to take place sooner rather than later... Some stuff I've been loading up: GReddy boost gauge, GReddy oil pressure ga...

Re: -89 Piazza Turbo HBL - Kaizen Racing Project 2

Latest news for the Piazza is that it's started to drive like crap. Significant loss of power, and the engine sounds like a lawnmower, and misfiring or something like that. So that's just great news just as I am gonna put it away for winter. I don't even know where to start looking for the problem.....
