Little update. Adjustable cam gear arrived from Germany finally. Ordered this one because it was the only one I could find in black. Working on building the wiring harness tonight

Also, you should get one of the ignition coil covers from a factory K04 car. They don't have the opening for the N75 and DV wires. I pulled the terminals out of the plugs and relocated them so they're not coming out on that side of the valve cover.
Edit: found the pic. You can see the red one doesn't have the nipple for the wires to come out of. Pretty sure you can get a black one like it.
Bonus cam gear photo, ignore the intake manifold :lol:

Good to know. I'll have to look up the part number for an ED30 coil cover. Your car almost done finally?

Kinda, it's in the same state it's been for the past month or two. It just needs tuning and some piping to be made, then it's pretty much done.

So I found that the red cover is easy to get (8E0971824S), the black one however is no longer made (part number 06F971824A) so its harder to get. I only found one on ebay but it wasnt in the US and came with the wiring so it was too $$

Finished routing the wiring harness. Going to sleeve it soon, it's pretty well tucked all around. Need to add in wiring for the front coolant temp and alternator but they won't be seen under the manifold. Also ordered plugs and pins to make wiring for the aux injectors.

No oil in engine, cam gear bolt needs torqued. Just notes so I don't forget
