Re: 02 gixxer 600

I used a combination of aluminum sheetmetal, aluminum angle iron and fiber glass to make the battery box.

Re: 02 gixxer 600

Made the ecu holders, fuse box holder, and starter relay holder. Still have 1 relay, and the recifier or whatever its called to mount. I used aluminum angle iron for the ecu holder, and some aluminum brackets i had laying around.

alittle progress before the sander broke, and a picture of my hoodie...

Re: 02 gixxer 600

oh yeah, haelo has been helping me read the wiring diagram, so many thanks for all his help. If anyone wants to use the stock heat sensor with the 3915 acewell, you need a 8.2k resistor inline (01-03 GSXR 600). I havnt tested how accurate it is yet. with the 8.2k it might be +/-10 degrees. The tach is really jumpy, havnt figured it out how to calm it down yet. Neutral light must be connected to the blue wire coming from the GPS (02 GSXR 600).

Hey sanitys I don't get any credit for hooking up your Acewell for you?

Just kidding :haelo:

Re: 02 gixxer 600

I decided to go with rubberized undercoating for the sheetmetal piece that holds all the wiring and ecu because its going to be getting bombarded with road debri.

Okay, for anyone with a 01-03 GSXR 600. a 5.1k Resistor will bypass the Tip Over Sensor. just thought Id let you all know.

got my coolant can, and ecu in the mail today. heres a picture of the coolant can next to the 20oz coke bottle. I know its really small, but i doubt ill be having issues with it.

Made a bracket out of angle aluminum for the plate and rear signals. Sprayed it was rubberized undercoating as well.

Re: 02 gixxer 600

thanks shift, heres a quick update. Nothing much visual has changed, can is off for some paint, made a bracket for the overflow tank. Its gonna be mounted on the Rad. Painted the overflow black, gonna wait till tomarrow to install it. Painted and cleared the undertail piece. Justs needs a wetsand and buff. Took the white stripe off the tank, and wetsanded and buffed it. Probably did some other small shit i forgot to mention.

You can sort of see the bracket i made here. Its black attached to the Rad.

Re: 02 gixxer 600

Thanks Haelo. Okay the tail light piece needs alittle more buffing (buffing by hand sucks balls). I was really happy with how it all turned out. Also grabbed a shot of the coolant overflow mounted. Its hard to see, which can be a good thing. Anyways here are some pictures.

Painted the Can/header flat black.

Re: 02 gixxer 600

Got my new tools in. I realized Im missing the axle/wheel spacer for the right side. I also need to get the seat tweaked so it fits up to the tank nice.

Things Im waiting on to come in/order.

1. Axle/Wheel spacer from dealer
2. Clip ons from cdnstreetfighter
3. Rear brake resivour from i havnt found one for a good price yet.

Then it should all be rideable, a few more things need buttoning up, and pictures for you guys.

Ive read that you can mod your subframe to accept the newer tail. by upper are you refering to headlight/fairing, or forks? Watch around ebay for forks, i got mine for 255 shipped, brakes 100. so I got a whole front for 355 from a 06 600, not a bad price if you ask me. not sure what the tails go for.

Re: 02 gixxer 600

Very nice thread and build bro. I have been keeping track the whole time and I really like what you did with your ride. I hope mine comes out half as nice.

Re: 02 gixxer 600

Thanks for all the kind words fella's. My brakes came in today, but I cant put them on untill I get my axle spacer from the dealer, probably sometime next week. I hope to have it rideable by next weekend. I'll try to clean up some of the pictures in here and have it in some sort of order for easier viewing when i have some time. I started surfing more again, and I have family visiting, so I havnt had as much time for computer stuff. I'll also include where I bought the stuff. If it wasnt made myself or a tool it was ebay, but just for anyone doing stuff like ive done.

Re: 02 gixxer 600

So its been awhile since i updated. I took a break from working on it. It seems that last 5% is a killer. I also came up with the idea of mounting all my computer in server cases and making them all rack mount, so money has been going towards that. Here are some updated pictures. All I really have left is as follows:

1. Mount the Calipers (requires 5mm or so spacers)
2. Install throttle side grip
3. Finish mounting up lights
4. Mount the guages
5. Make sure all wire/cable routing is good.
*6. Gotta mod the seat. but it can work for now.
