[mookers]

Only 600? I am dissapoint.

My bad...

The engine is still being run in. only at 400ish kms so far.
then next weekend Ill be putting the adjustable cam gears on and giving the engine bay a tidy up.

then Carl needs to tidy up his methanol injection kit and put the nozzles in properly etc and re-do the Coil per plug setup. after all of that its off to the dyno for a propper tune

Sweeeet, so about 2 weeks for my cam gear innards then

 

[Smurph]

That sounds awesome

How many kms to run the motor in?

 

[6A13TT TYPE S]

around 1000, could get away with less probably but just wanna be safe before we really start to wind it up.

 

[AKKO]

You'll get that done tonight/today right, who needs sleep... ;-)

Sorry to pester dude, but do you have a drawing of the torque plate at all? Even a rough hand drawn one will do. I can draw it up at home and try and ge a few quotes over here for the guys wanting big builds.

 

[6A13TT TYPE S]

no worries dude. I keep forgetting.
will try and suss it next week. will be too busy sinking beers on sunday for bathurst

There should be photos of it in his other thread. Did you consider billet or stocker cranks for the build or not feasible?

 

[6A13TT TYPE S]

aftermarket cranks were out of the budget for this build. although I am still looking very seriously into making one at some point for my personal engine. thing is I've never made a crank before, Think Ill start by making something easy like a toyota 2K or 3K crank, nice and small and not expensive if it all goes wrong, just hours and hours of labour down the drain. only one way to learn hey!

Yes there are pics of the torque plate in my other thread but they are of no use to anyone as they don't include dimensions

 

[Smurph]

Well I can imagine you will let us know if you do

Keen to read your personal engine build when the time comes

 

[6A13TT TYPE S]

Yeah will do. wont be attempting to make a crank for some time yet though but will definatly post here if/when I do

I have a build thread here
http://www.ozvr4.com/threads/adams-99-facelift-legnum-mivec.13822/page-3
which I update with anything to do with my car. mostly engine stuff recently.

 

[Smurph]

I will read that thread many times throughout

 

[jungle]

So how the km's going?

 

[6A13TT TYPE S]

not sure haven't caught up with Carl recently. but being his only car they will be ticking along

 

[AKKO]

Bump

Run in KM's done, fingers crossed putting the cam gears in and dialing them up this weekend.
then it time to dial some boost and timing into it.
