made some block off plates for various parts of teh engine that needed blocking off

 

Got some "turboboost!!11!" goodies

 

are you going to tear the motor down? if has lots miles ild highly recomend it.

 

It is a pretty fresh engine, was rebuilt not too long ago

 

whats the plan stock ecu or standalone?
hp goals stock turbo? how much power do u need ?

good progress so far this will be fun to watch..


cheers

Id love to go standalone but im a pooor student who has aquired all this through good deals with my friends, I cant afford it. So stock ecu and wiring for now.

Im pretty sure its an s5 turbo on it(s4 engine) nothing crazy in terms of power, I will be running the fmic, free flowing intake, and a 3 inch exhaust with a muffler, and maybe a resonator if I can fit it under my car, Im looking for a FCD becasue Ive heard alot about boost creep problems. I plan on porting the crap out of the wastegate, and If I can afford it buy an SAFC and a wideband and upgrade secondary injectors.

IM thinking that I should be running close to 250hp maybe?


ive been told people runnign around 250 with an sr20 corolla can break azenis rt615's loose in 3rd with no clutch. Eventually I would like to run around 300hp.

 

So I got the engine in for good now, Ported the wastegate and installed/sealed all block off plates, Installed RCA\'s, modded the oil pan for clearance and welded teh rad support back in. Then towed it back from the shop I was using back home so now I dont have limited hours I can work on it, it just sucks because I was in an awesome shop, but theres no room for my car.

 

awsome project!

Too bad there are no AE86's on the east coast...

 

got some new fancy things

walbro pump, fuel cell, sunpro 10k tach, and an FD koyorad, I think I pretty much have everything I absolutely need now.

 

might be a good thing lol ;P


there a trap

 

sweet get to work i wanna see drifting lol

 

pretty boring stuff lately. Ive been waiting for stuff lots/ tightening bolts etc..

so heres a bit of an update:

Shortening my friends old Driveshaft.


fender flare trimming:


but yea, just have to finish mounting the FD rad, intercooler piping, finish up building my fuel cell enclosure, and tranny tunnel, exhaust and then wire it.

 

MORE MORE MORE MORE!!!! Good luck bro **** looks like its coming along

Mad props. This seems like a drug dealers hobby, that or no girl friend. I can't even imagine how much of a money pit this project is coming out to be.

 

you'd be surprised actually im a 19yr old student who barely works, im so poor haha and yea i do have a lovely girlfriend who i live with who puts up with my cars lol. i actually havent spent too much after i sold my old drivetrain set up. i guess you could say im pretty good at finding good deals and stuff i can make profits from and wheeling and dealing lol!

it does save a lot of money when you do every little piece of work yourself too

p.s. its nice to see people are interested in my build

 

any videos of the car running or is she not there yet? sweet that you did this as well one of a kind. i want to do it to my 240

 

I have a shitty video of it before when it had a gutless 4age, and not the best run. but yea shes not running with the 13b yet tho.

big open tracks with long corners are hard with no power...

I finished shortening the driveshaft

 

os giiiiiken twin plate, needs a new housing, which are about 250 bucks, (maybe I can afford a housing in the summer). somehow I manage to get alot of stuff free/cheap

 

getting a bit closer everyday

 

well cut some metal to fill in firewall hole and made prototype pieces for tranny tunnel, need to weld in rear spare tire hole cover.

probably gonna shorten it down a bit





a bit better pic of engine bay

 

Hey Mot Bot great job with the swap!

 

thanks^




ordering new wheels asap...

 

hey what series os giken clutch is that i have one ive been trying to sell. maybe we could work something out.

 

I have no idea what series it is, Also im in no situation to be buying anything right now, I dont have much money. I'm not too worried about the clutch the only reason i have it is because I got it for free, Maybe Ill buy the replacement housing sometime in the summer and install it next winter.
