Interior is all done, final-freaking-ly! It came out really nice, well, to us at least :)
Here are some pictures from after the install. I actually put the driver's seat, roll bar, parking brake, steering wheel, and a few more things last night but do not have pictures of those yet (besides iPhone pics). http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v7...DSC_0186-1.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v7...d/DSC_0188.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v7...d/DSC_0189.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v7...d/DSC_0193.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v7...d/DSC_0195.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v7...d/DSC_0196.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v7...d/DSC_0190.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v7...d/DSC_0192.jpg |
Looks awesome! Can't wait to see a picture of the cockpit with the seats installed. Nice color choice.

I dont believe Ive ever seen the battery mounted like that before.

I got it going again this afternoon! What a noise. I hope now that with my extra grounding straps, fuse box, and all the little tweaks I have done, that I won't fry anymore boxes...
I got to fix a little fuel leak at one of the injectors now, always something :JEKYLHYDE |
That's some nice thread work!
|
Love the interior. The leather used to break up the carpet is a neat touch.

Wow, that is really looking sharp!
Unfortunately, that color interior is screaming for a BRG paint scheme. Yes or are you keeping the brushed finish? |
Thanks guys!
Mark, keeping it brushed, so now. |
where are the
rest of the pics with the seats etc...i really like the interior color you picked

Here are some crappy pics of the interior. I have been trying to chase down a problem with the EFI, and it has been taking a lot of time (relatively). I'm getting a "MAP ERROR" message from the EFI system. I tried to troubleshoot it as much as I can but haven't found the solution so far (I'm hoping it will be just having to change a $50 sensor and nothing more...).
I have not put the passenger seat in yet because it is a whole lot easier to work under the dash without the seat in. I actually took it out (rolled it out) of the garage this weekend, for the first time since it arrived here. It was awesome to see it shine outside :) Since these pictures, the doors are on. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v7...d/IMG_0454.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v7...d/IMG_0439.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v7...d/IMG_0438.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v7...d/IMG_0437.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v7...d/IMG_0456.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v7...d/IMG_0457.jpghttp://img.photobucket.com/albums/v7...d/IMG_0458.jpg |
great looking car....wait until you get it sorted!....i was out in mine today for 1 hour....its intoxicating going up through the gears....the downside is the attention it gets
|
Maiden voyage accomplished!! :3DSMILE: I took it out today for the first time. It was pretty surreal driving the car after spending all this time crawling over it. It was a beautiful day here, and all it took was to swap out the MAP sensor. I'm still having some problems down low, runs very rough, but I found out that the system thinks it is at 94% load, all the time. That comes from the vacuum. So hopefully I can fix that soon/easily. It runs well at higher rpms.
I had the pleasure of having the cops show up at my place about 30 mins after my drive. A lovely neighbor tracked me down, and then called the cops to say I was driving "very fast and recklessly through the neighborhood"... The village cops came and they were very cool, no worries at all. I freaking hate spineless people who, instead of coming to see you, just call the cops. You can see in the vids I was going slow. I hit it once towards the end, but it was very short. The loudness of the car doesn't help either :LOL: Cobra first drive - YouTube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g_XzWUuXS-4 |
AWESOME.... I don't think your speedometer is hooked up, I bet you could have used that as your excuse for driving fast in the neighborhood, soooo cooool, good job, great looking and sounding car.;)
|
Thanks Pete. I'm not sure why the speedo doesn't work...
I just found the MAP vacuum line not hooked to the MAP sensor.. haha. That will explain my rough running down low! I need to take another ride now :) |
Hey "Frenchy",
Very well done! Congrats, & hopefully its only a matter of a couple of tweaks before you have all the EFI bugs ironed out. I had a poke around on youtube & watched a few other AVM production video clips... So with that in mind I'm looking forward to the next few installments of 647 on the road :) Funny story is I grew up running around on motocross bikes as a kid. Some of my favourite memories ever, include trying to teach my mum how to launch off the line without killing herself when I was about 9yrs old. Funny story, she kept freaking out every time the clutch would bite & just kept crushing my bike into the bushes... I obviously wasn't a good teacher. The Triumphs in the clip is not a half bad ride either, mine's a CBR rr & a blast to ride :) |
Interior looks incredible!!! That carpet looks a thousand times better than the wool.
|
Conratulations! What great feeling that is!
|
Arnaud, The best part of that video is that big ol' grin you can see in the rear view mirror! Congrats, man! A big milestone for sure.
The lack of MAP vacuum plus the associated vacuum leak is exactly why your engine sounds so rough. I'll bet it purrs like a kitten and then growls like a tiger now. |
