I forget what it was called, but there used to be a site that had pics of an engine bay (both 1G and 2G) that
showed you where parts were located on the engine. The site shut down and (to my knowledge) is still shut down. Regardless,
I would like to make something like this here at Eat Sleep DSM.
This is how I want it to work. First, get an engine bay shot of each car. We will use a 1G turbo DSM as the
example. Then we make 4 quadrants in this engine bay pic. Top left, bottom left, top right, bottom right. Click the area in
which the part you are looking for is located.
The next page will come up. This will have a close up picture of the area you selected on the previous page.
From here, there will be a dot on every single part that is shown in this picture. Say you click on the dot
that is on the Cam Angle Sensor. Next page comes up, gives you a picture of the CAS, tells you what it does,
how to diagnose problems with the CAS, how to remove/replace it, etc.
This will be the same for every single part. This will become very useful for any member. The point of this
on the other site was to help locate a certain part and/or if you didn't know what something was, you find it on the picture and click on it. But, it was very basic. We plan to make a little more advanced version of this.
When something is created, there is a name given. I want to come up with a name for this that will stick. Maybe make it into a really easy to remember acronym.
I plan to do this for a 1G turbo, 1G NA, 1G 1.8L, 2G turbo, 2G 420A, 2G 4G64, Evo IV through IX 4G63, and whatever other DSM we can. We will need people to chime in and help. If you want to use your DSM as the donor for the pics, you must have a clean, lightly modified engine bay, a good camera, and able to follow directions.
Let me know what you guys thing about this. Also if you want to use your car as a canidate, let me know as well.
