Just wanted to know what everyone thinks of my engine so far

Also included pictures of the heads being ported and polished and to show just how extreme we've gone I've included a picture showing the sound deadening being removed from the floor, hope you lot like

The turbo's in the picture were the ones we first wanted to use but ended up going for the hks instead, as for the fuel rail, i'll be honest I not to sure what they've done, I'll have to look into that, if it means more money so be it, Ive spent to much already to quit now

Amazing work buddy, well done. Looks like alot of love and attention has gone into that :D :bow:

If you have to change the fuel rail then you might have to change the injectors to suit?

 

Looking really good mate :)

Many thanks, Its taken a year so far and still got loads of work to go

Looking really good mate :)

 

Ive been looking at z1 motorsport and thinking of ordering there fuel rail with 555cc injectors, what do you think? any suggestions?

I think you'll be needing bigger injectors than that with the power you're aiming for.

Just checked and the 850cc set is actually on sale at the moment cheaper than the 555's anyway.

Looked on z1 and ordered 850cc, cheers for the advice

looks great mate , keep us updated :D

did the sound deadaning weigh much?

 

Worth while doing?

The sound deadening weighed around 20kgs, thats with every last bit removed, takes a long time with a heat gun but I think it will be well worth it as we're going for as light as possible

wonder if it will make it un bearable to live with as a daily car. sound wise that is.

To be honest I dont think I'll be using it as a daily drive as Ive just about to buy another 300 for that

wow i didnt realise the sound deadening weighed that much, looks like thats next on my list. We talking bout the bits under the carpets and interior right?

Are the hks 2530 basicly the same as the GT28RS??

yeh there like the replacement for them, slightly bigger and newer technology so they boost a little quicker and make more power but the 2530 is a great turbo and one of the most reliable around :)

Cheers Kirbz hopefully i can get my head round in how to fit them :headvswal

I have a lwb, the sound deadening took about 3 days to get it all up, I removed everything, boot, under the carpets and rear seats, its bloody suprising just how much there is!!!

Any updates on this?

Rip all that abs out aswell, you wont be needing that going up the drag strip...plus you'l lose some weight!

Wow! Good work bud!

did the same on my s14 shell. it takes ages

 

how does the z32 manage to weigh so much. its about 300kg heavyer than the s14
