e30-323ti Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Well I'll be, I had always read the same as nick_m 305mm MAX. firewall setback AND 5% of the wheel base MAX. to No.1 for engine placement One of those things you need to read a few times to sink in The T56 Magnum is a nice option (good price), but the overdriven 5th & 6th means you need to run a +4.55 ratio diff for it to be of any real use on the track (from my investigation anyway), then to start to run into driveshaft RPM issues. The new TKO's come in a 500 & 600 lbs-ft variants IIRC Mikuni: No build thread yet sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikuni Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 no more 2jz?It appears he has started at the end and is now slowly telling us the story to how he got there. Kind of like the starwars prequels or whatever they call them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nothingsfree Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 Haha thats how we build cars in Woolston, removal of firewall/tunnel is mandatory. As is changing your mind about the choice of engine multiple times, only after they have been dropped into the engine bay tho... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truenotch Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 Why is the engine so far back? Are you going to put a 4age and C52 in front of it for extra drive? Saw a shellsport datsun at Manfeild - A12 crammed 200-300mm behind the axle line - tits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheerios Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 What do you do if you have fouling plugs that require cleaning or the likes? haha yes dont worry iv planed this! 25mm hole saw up into the dash apron then put rubber plugs in the holes, a simple solution that will have people in hysterics when ever they ask what the rubber bungs in the dash apron are for!!
