Mr 33's Engine Build

[MR 33]

Hey all, thought i'd chuck this up for anyone who is interested in a 25 build chasing 500 plus rwkw. Car used to have stock motor putting out 296rwkw with the old faithful 3076r and not much else. Now with my current licence issues (ie lack of) i will be building the motor fiiinally with parts i got thru NYTSKY an Raw Brokerage several years ago. So the list so far consists of;

CP pistons 20 thou over 9 to 1 comp

Eagle H Beam rods with ARP 2000 bolts

ARP head and main studs

Nitto oil pump

Full fuel system (sard surge tank with two AEM pumps inside and pierburg lift pump)

Custom low mount t3 manifold with Turbosmart 45mm Hyper gate

Custom plenum on stock runners with stock throttle body

Now i am just waiting on my custom turbo the boys at JEM have ordered which is something like a Garrett GT3794r with t3 rear. Still working out cam ideas an also injectors which may be ID2000's. Haltech Platinum Pro will be going in along with maybe a Profec B ebc. Hopefully with all this on e-flex it should pump out over 500rwkw fingers crossed. Will whack some photos on once stuff gets serious, we all know what the parts look like Also, all my old parts will be for sale Will chuck them in the for sale section soon enough...

Cheers!

Ahhhhh that is the turbo I was eyeing off on FB looks like a tough combo, with the boys at JEM it sounds like its going to be a good thing

[MR 33]

Hehe been alot of discussion about this turbo! Can't wait to see what numbers it puts out Thanks mate

[MR 33]

Another shot of custom turbo, check the spacer out

Difference in wheel size GT3076 on left, custom GT37 on right!

Well plan has changed a little bit. Ended up selling my old turbo set up including manifold and gate, so I will now be going with a high mount set up. Should be easier to work on, not too mention look better

Motor miiight be back tomorrow, if not week next from machining. Will put up some more photos as the build progresses

[MR 33]

Build is moving along nicely! Have decided on going solid lifter conversion. Cams will be 260in/270ex. Fuel system is nearly complete, went with Xspurt 2000cc injectors and twin inlet top feed rail. Just waiting on motor then everything should flow along nicely

Boot install just about done

Engine bay with twin filters and Turbosmart FPR

The bad girl chillin out lol

[NYTSKY]

Nice combo, should make for an interesting driving experience

[MR 33]

LOL! Interesting would be one word for it! If its anything near yours I will be happy

[MR 33]

Little update, cams have been decided on along with solid lifter conversion. Have decided to drop the VCT in order to get the cams we want. Have gone with Tomei Procams 270 inlet and exhaust with 10.25mm lift. Should sound grumpy! Got Supertech solid lifter kit with oversize valves and all the good bits that come with it as well. Tomei cam gears on the front. All that arrived during the week and has been sent away to machine shop. Changed from my custom plenum (which is for sale) to a Greddy style one, which we painted in wrinkle black. Along with my black fuel rail, reg, lines and fittings it should look very sexy I think. Getting ever closer to hearing this thing fire up!

Plenum and rail lookin nice

Cam gears. Don't know why I didn't take photos of Supertech kit, soo many goodies lol

Engine bay all cleaned up ready for the beast to be dropped in (lots of wd40 and sore fingers)
