Diesel piston. Chamber creates a swirl increasing the dispersion of the fuel through the air. It also controls the flame front alot more. I will try and find a pictures of this s2000 crank that snapped. Think 5" crank nose snapped clean.

that shit is awesome i want to be there when it happens (protected from rouge bits of gearbox though)

man proabably would have been like 11000rpm thats one tough little engine they build though

drove it off a cliff!?! and then was escorted to the movies, all a happy ending cept for the poor civic stuck in the tree i guess..

.

but it is his truck, owner driver.. haha shell be right just put diff oil init to balance the viscocity up... i have heard of an apprentice @ another workshop near us who filled a diff with grease mind u the diffs in the crap we work on are like the size of an engine & take 22l of oil....

i was refering to the guy i work with

Pretty sure its design is refered to as a HERON head

you are correct

Funny looking pistons

Like Beemae30 said it helps swirl & controls the burn better. if u look clseley i kno the pix are crap quality but u can see the pattern ontop of the piston of how it fires from inside, out.... similar to a petrol with hemispherical head but obviously with no spark plug.

had some more eventfull jobs in the last few days lol it must be engine failure season as i have heard lots of other workshops are getting blown engines in a fair bit aswell as us

this boys and girls is when happens when a 4l 4cyl diesel which is limited to 2800rpm runs off oil & revs to about 6000rpm.... BANG

the two missing vavles were stuck in the piston, managed to get one out but other one is sorta disintigrated haha

post-76142-0-75463500-1316683960_thumb.jpg

this is the cyl that destroyed the above valves if u look closely u can see the one valve head i managed to get out..

in these two pics u can see where the valves have made contact with the piston but not quite enough to smash them although they are very bent.. almost looks like they are ment to be there but trust me they are not haha

next 2 are another engine 9 (one a 5 litre 4 cyl diesel) that come in on a hook, customer says the oil light came on and then the motor locked up... when we drained the sump we got bout 200ml of oil out of it, still a mystery where it went.....

thing that amazed me the most bout this enigne is that there is absolutely no sign of any oil in the cylinder/on the piston, the metal is super clean but just all broken up obviously from the force of the crank trying to push it up the bore as it grabbed the liner

post-76142-0-36490300-1316684004_thumb.jpg

this one one is just a pic of that spray pattern i spoke about in another post.. pretty interesting to see the spray pattern of the injector & how the cobustion takes place in this stye of enging (one again heron type piston) i dont kno why it is so dry obviously from no oil but there is not much signs of new fuel either so i think it maybe had a leaning out problem as well which could have helped cause its destruction...

post-76142-0-62045900-1316684911_thumb.jpg

last one is just a Bloody AWESOME effort for stance made bout one of our good ol' portable oil pumps... is pretty mexican but has MAD camber haha, just needs some flares and "Moar" low with some tuck

Hope you enjoy my friends... nyaanyaa.gif

also thought id post up a pic of my toolbox working on my mrs car... i think at that time it was installing her sound system... either that or it was sixing a wiring issue which kept causing the intrument lights fuse to blow...

thing is a 1985 corona rt142... Sooooo much fun to work on & drive, very slow but just a comfly cruiser... trying to convince my mrs to get some coils & then some stance going... although this is not going too well lol...

will be painting it black soon i might post some pics & stuff i kno its not a skyline or even a nissan but its still fun

it does have a 22re in it... and a little exhaust sounds cute for a girls car haha

has some cool wheels on it too has watanabes on the back 15 x 7 +0 & SSR 2 piece meshies on the front 15 x 7 + 13... just needs more Lowwwwww...

this thread delivers. :cheers:

hope its alright lol just figured it was a waste to not show ppl how real this stuff is & how common.... & maybe be able to teach someone something new & also learn new stuff myself

enjoy . . .they are a good car and good engine to work on. . .( similar in some ways to a RB30E) i rebuilt the 22re in my (now) ex wifes car,ran it on BP100,advanced the base ignition timing, threw on a set of extractors and it was right for another 200,000ks :thumbsup: a nimble and economical car

    • Pete knows these cars well, he does my car too, if he was concerned about the traction arm length for your use he would have said so. Do you have adjustable bushes in that arm, maybe he got enough adjustment there (or maybe the bump steer was not material for your use of the car)
    • Hmm. Yes. I should have been clearer. 1000s for Haltech, for extra headroom. 725s for Nistune. You might even be OK with 640s, but if the possible power ends up much more than 300 rwkW you will run out of headroom on the 640s. That would probably be OK and a signal to not push it to that sort of power with Nistune anyway. At that level you probably do want to be thinking about engine protection functions. Oh, and all of that presumes 98 only, not E85. Well....the 1000s would allow you to run E85 at ~300rwkW territory, again, maybe sort of running out of headroom. Hard to tell with E85 - depends on the tuner as to how rich they like to set it up.
    • Yes.  The only scenario I can imagine when the answer isn't yes, is if you drive like there is highway patrol behind you at all times.  If your car currently runs, enjoy it and keep saving. Better costs more, keep saving until you can budget the better ECU. It's worth it.  Nope. Plenty of us making >300kw on unopened motors. Mine is unopened and makes about 350kw if I turn everything up, its fine (lots of caveats here, how the car will be used/abused, how long you expect the engine to last between rebuilds, how has the engine been maintained prior to coming into your ownership, etc etc).   
    • Sorry just wanting to clarify, at this power goal, which should I be going? Also, More info regarding suspension, the rear upper camber arms were used to get the camber back to i believe around -0.5 ~ -1 degree (@ Road and Race in Rydalmere), I forgot the exact figure, but ALOT less camber than what it came originally which was like -2.5degrees. Are the traction arms still recommended? The bilsteins from SydneyKid, they've got 400lb/in fronts & 275/in in the rear, revalved to his specs. Intercooler, I'm just having a look at some on Rakuten.jp and some other japanese sites. Might get something from back there, GReddy, Blitz or HPI, all crossflow. Looking at roughly $450-$500 AUD + shipping... Theres not many choices except that chinese branded Justjap unless you go for blitz return flow. Yeah, only downside with Haltech is the price ahhaha, so expensive, and with all the sensors if I go that route... $$$$$ yeesh. Are headstuds/gaskets needed for <300akw?
