OSC

fuck me that is the shit. go matty that engine bay i could eat off. makes me wanna go re do mine! so keen to come for a skid in the two tangs. so miss my sev.

so this has s13??? bcs in it??? or s14?? what front hubs is it running? is that all you had to change to get them to fit???. a mate is building one atm. L31e with itbs

reliability of a 4age is so much better then that of a pinto. and as anyone who plays with cars knows cheaper is not usually better.

the sump wont need to be modified unless you want the engine right at the very back of the engine bay. also depending on small or big port will depend on fit. os peeps just be hating on the 4age since ages ago. but in all seriousness just put a 4age in it auh.

put a 4age into it. if your not going turbo it should be easy with no tunnel mods and alot less sump/oil pick up modification. smallport would be the go and even putting in a hydraulic clutch isnt that hard. 4ages go great rev like there's no tomorrow and well 4age inside is where its at. ive got a bluetop sitting in the shed with a rwd intake on it thats up for sale. if you tilt the engine on a ever so slight lean towards the passengers side and redrill and drop the brake master cylinder bracket it will clear everything easy. wiring for them even with the standard ecu isnt that bad and you can pick up easy to wire in looms off trademe for cheap. so many things you can do to get easy extra power out of them and theres always the option of turbocharging later on with ze internals.

actually if he hasnt completed any conversion now if i did my car again id go 12a bridgy no torque so standy diff will hold up. a good one with even a sidey will blow a pinto into the weeds. s1 rx7 boxes are cheap as shit. mounting is easy. no efi to worry about. and just get a shitter engine off tardme. be sweet for a club car that probably wont see huge kms. get it tuned right and the worst it should do is wear out then just take it to rotamax for decent rebuild. meh.

hell yeah ripped it up hard. hows taupo go with stock rad? hotty hotty like when i went? does go well sideways. also get it right car is a gt coupe not gt-r as has no power windows or power steering.

the biggest problem with moving them in is that to combat the exta body roll you need to run harder springs making the car more unstable over bumps etc.

the further inward you run the shocks the less the actual spring rate at the wheel so the more body roll you would have for a given sway bar etc. i would run a watts linkage as then you can adjust you roll centre by moving the linkage centre pivot point. which should enable you to tune the back end of the car to a set up you like. ideally the axle pin point for the shocks/springs should be as far outward as possible.

2.8i vented capri rotors. get from palmside + austin princess calipers + spacer kit (again from palmside) thats fronts all bolt on shit easy as rear i used ae92 fx-gt rear brakes. but that was on my hilux

^^^^ definately the most on to it guy i know recommended both those books. can be had from techbooks.co.nz

so do 4agte's lol its like big ends??? what big ends?

i fucken told gaz that 250hp atw was possible with efi pinto turbo and 248kw atw is more then that still hmmmmm makes me wonder if the 4agte was a good idea after all oh well next time

yay for minilites with mmm dish sweet churbo manifold from when i was gonna do pinto turbo. will use this in later project ..... so then i did some shopping and new seats stripping out more interior as good as the new seats are unfortunately they arent quite noob proof as trial fitting shows

more pics: trusty old engine crane hmmm on a mk1 this sandwhich plate isnt bolted to the gearbox on a mk2 however it appears it is more pics later tonight when i cbf
