As promised here are some pics of my Summit that I purchased a while back from pma1123.

Some changes I have made since I bought the car are:

Stock Turbo DSM fual system w/ wally 190
Stock Turbo DSM piping system w/sidemount
Stock Turbo Cams
1g exhaust mani
14b w/evo 3 o2 housing.
Rebuilt f5m33 w/awd 5th
Fidanza Lightweight Flywheel
ACT 2100 pp stock disc
2.5" exhaust fabbed by pma.
elantra rotors and early 1g calipers.

I'll throw some pics up of the downpipe once I finish that.

Damn, that car was a lot cleaner when Paul owned it. :lol:

Looks good though, nice 1g as well. I went ahead and embedded all your images to make life easier for everyone else.

Post subject:  Update:
New gas tank installed with a new walbro 190 and sending unit with 3/8" lines. Also wired up the resistor pack on Saturday.

Whats Left:
wiring knock sensor and 7th maf to ecu
welding up my ss downpipe
installing some arps headstuds

Any one got any tips as far as how I go about breaking in my rebuilt tranny?

Drive it like you stole it. I would just make sure the clutch disengages completely is all.

I plan on that, I was kind of wondering about how soon the first, second and if necessary third fluid change should be done though.

Got my downpipe welded up finally. Took me 5 hours total of cutting, measuring and "farmer welding" it all together. I used 2.5" ss pipe with .035" ss wire on the wire feed. My welds look awful but I know there won't be any leaks.

Also got my arp headstuds on today too for a little extra security.

Your welds don't look too awful man don't be so hard on yourself...I've seen some really ghetto welds in my day... :lol:

Thanks, crx. Prior to this I haven't touched a welder in 3 years. I was making adjustments on the welder all the way through this project and didn't really have it dialed in until the last weld. I even forgot to turn on the gas a couple of times. I wanted to make a nice even "pretty" bead but really didn't have a steady enough hand to do so. I think .035" wire is just a little on the heavy side and next time I think I'm gonna use .030".

Update: Everything should be ready to turn the key and go now but the starter will not crank. I had the starter tested to see if it was faulty and it passed.

Some info on my conversion:

1.6l NA engine harness. 1.6l MPI under the dash.
The car used to run on in NA mode on 91NT 2.0l ecu.
Now equipped with the 92 turbo 5-speed ecu from my GSX.
Both non eprom.
I extended the pos battery terminal and moved the battery to the trunk.
Wired in a turbo maf sensor. All wire colors matched and 7th wire installed on
the active filter reset terminal on the ecu.
Knock sensor wired in to the ecu also.
Wired in turbo IRP according to this guide: http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/article ... rsion.html

Basicly the starter is not being triggered to run.
Anyone got any experience or ideas on what the problem is?
Can a starter relay go bad?

Dang how'd I miss this? That's my old summit that I sold to Pma, prior to that my uncle owned it. There's the last 10 years of ownership for ya.

I think Harvey and Paul did the wiring for 2.0l NT swap then right?

Yeah, it was still a 4g15 when it left my driveway. Not sure if Harvey had anything to do with it though, it was Paul's daily for a couple years afaik.

What starter harness is used? I had to use the dsm starter harness and just put a push button start on. The 89 and 90-92 csm starting wiring are different. You could also find the 12v source on the ignition switch and run the wiring from it to the starter switch.

It's a '91 Summit with 1.6l NA starter harness. Not at all complicated to move the batery to the trunk because one POS+ went to the fuse box on the passenger side and the other went directly to the starter. I'm leaning on the starter push button idea myself to if the relay is bad. I can mount it in an unseen location for a little security too.

the reason a relay is used in most applications is to isolate high current or high voltage circuit from a actuating circuit. in this case the voltage is the same but there is alot of current going through the starting circuit. the actuating circuit being the start button and wires, make sure the wires are of the same gauge as the starting circuit and the button can handle the 200-300 amps a regular passenger car needs to start with. Ignore these physics and you may cause a fire or burn your finger. also make sure to run both positive and negative wires because just running a ground and a positive with that much current may cause transient spikes on other grounds(not good). most 150+ amp switches at my work have a relay built in.
