Re: little hulk

I still think a non mivec 6a12 with aftermarket cams, GT2871r with crossover pipe, PS1000 running a eflex sensor would hall ass. 10psi on 98 and 20psi on e85. Boost at 3krpm & 250+kw.

I know crank case ventilation is important but maby not that much. :lol:

PS Do you have any pics on the process of fitting the rear flairs? Eg Joining the inner arch to the 1/4 panel once you had cut it.

Its up on jack stands getting a w57 gearbox fitted ready for the new years racing. I've got some new Dunlop semi's ready to go and with luck will be ready to race post xmas.

Fingers crossed to hydrolic clutch change over is a smooth one. :roll:

Re: recently picked up 4g63t NEW PROJECT

In the end its your car but stroking the motor is a waste of money IMO. Even with stock rods and crank a 4g63t can make 250kw+ with almost no lag. My car will light up the rears (Dunlop semi's) in 3rd gear if you don't feed the power on smoothly and it only has 200rwkw. Look up some of the power the...

If your going to effort of a coilover rear end you would really need to go a full 5 link rear end. A lot of work involved.

Bit of a pain the whole thing is back together. My money is on the flywheel dia being different. The 4g6x 6 bolt flywheel come in 3 size's. RWD, FWD and AWD. Each one is different.

Update. Made it to the dyno at long last. Now running 17psi and pump e85 for safety. Was smooth sailing other than the dump pipe restricting flow so that was a nice change. Tuner was Rob at Sabbadin automotive who did an amazing job. My cheap ass cars can be PITA to work on so im glad he didn't kill...
