well i finally got the RE motor into the fc tonight with little trouble but i do have some conserns with the mounts that im going to take up again with builder of the mounts. but let me know what you think. also have added an old motor shot as a before and well now current.

couldnt get all pics in one post.

lookin good, when you figure on starting it up?

i hope to have it runnin by 2 weeks time, im waiting on the kg rails and a set of coils from micro tech then i still have to wire up the new wolf 4.0 hahah ya i got alot to do yet but i hope to start breakin it in before i boost. hopin on 550 plus at the wheels, the motor is built good for it, hell the apex seals im runnin have been tested at 43 psi consistant with out failure.

good god that turbo looks hudge what size is it. and if your ever in mn you'll have to give me a ride. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

NICE...

lol the turbo , well to make a rather long story short it started life as a garrett t64 and i had majestic make it to what it is now a garrett/holset t64 1.00a/r hot side and a holset hx51 cold side full bearing. kinda cool ey. anyways spool is at 3200 rpm and responce is quite well and the ****** pull is top notch. and i am in mn now and then also.

wow, cool.

a few more shots, note no more coils on the body of the car, i got plans for 4 coils to go in but waiting on them to get here and will be motor mounted so the engine bay will be much cleaner . also wow with the wireing hahaha. and yes there is alot more to do before i call it finished.

Nice setup, can't wait to see you done. Keep us updated.

off topic: would that be the easiest way to install the engine?

yeah its alot easier than wrestling it back together on the hoist............

Looks good man... I would keep small children away from your car, they may get sucked into that huge turbo!

LOL ya man that is sweet ! how much boost you thinking ?

ahhh nice now i gotta go clean under my desk !!!

boost, well 18psi on 93 octain and may go more if i run c16. but untill the motor is broken in i wont boost at all the rev limit will be set to 5k and straight waist gate spring presure wich is 12 pound spring.

85)drove the car at night finally and well due to the highly untuned ecu the turbo was so ****** hot it was orange, also oil temps where reaching 240deg under boost. not good



86)thought what i could do with my time in the winter. lets freashin up the t2 motor with a port. and new seals.

105) still waiting on rails and coils

106) started wiring.



now in the meain time some where near the frount mount i moved the battery to the inside of the car and did alot of ****** around with radio stuff and decided that i like no radio or just something simple. and yes im still waiting for the coils and rails. there have been other things i have done like port the s5 intake manifolds and what not but i didnt want to list that. so i hope this enlightens all of you on what i have been up to with this car and for anyone who personaly knows me this is why i have no social life haahahah and where all my money goes. so hopfully i can say i am done with this thing this year and just mainly drive it, assuming i get them damn coils and rails!

so whats the horsepower goal at 18 psi? and exactly what turbo is that? still the hx51/t64?



kevin.

yes its the hx51/t64 and ill be happy with 550 at the wheels

I also have an hx51 I believe thats what I have in my rx7. The motor has an Ito port and I am going with a 3.5 inch downpipe. This was the combo in my rx2, but my rx7 is almost complete. I guess the rx2 will just have to settle with a 20b. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683785.gif

i want that car, can i have it? https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683785.gif

hahahahahahaha i have turned down fucks from smoken hot chicks for that same question. so the answer is hell no

well got my coils and rails finally. and i am now working on the wiring. ill post pics tonight of my hack job wireing.



up next will be pluming and ill probly have to ream out the kg rails as the fuel openings are just a bit small, no biggy. but other then the plumming and wiring i just need to design and make the new tb adapter and tb side of the intercooler piping. so soon soon soon this beast will fire up. crossing fingers as i type.

Are you going to be running P/S?

yes i am still running power steering. i need to repaint the braket as it is not the same color red. its fun trying to run a 3 inch ic pipe around the ps pump.

props for running i/c pipes with p/s still installed.



seems like we're bothing shooting for the same power realm, good luck.



kevin.

you got a pm fc3sboy

well im almost done, with the wireing that is

well finally got everything laid out in the engine bay, unfortunatly i could not motor mount the coils due to the iac but atleast the frount of the engine bay will be cleaned up better. note i need to finish the wiring to the ignitor and coils then loom all the harnesses. so if anyonestill reads this thread here are some freash pics. exuse the mess.

yet more pics

ok its been a few weeks since i started on this project. here is where its at today.

the motor is in and bolted in the trans and shifter is in but im goin to need to take the trans out to find out why i cannot bolt up the slave. the wolf is 97% wired just need to run the 12v switch wires to the relays and yes i do run alot of relays, seams to work for me. i got the rails in and started the pluming and started to finish the ports on the intake manifold.



things i have to do yet,

finish the plumming, i bought the fittings but the ones i got wont work as well as i need so its back to pegusis racing for more fittings



i ordered the lm-1 auto box to go along with the lm-1 wide band as a full data logging system, i like info and the dyno shops around here SUCK!



i still need a tb adapter so i can finish up the ic piping so if anyone has a spare for a re motor that is 3"id hit me up



i also need to rewire some of the guages



and weld a new rear muffler as i am trying to quiet this beast down, with 3.5" piping from the turbo all the way back its quiet loud.



and lastly with the amount of hp the last set up had and not breaking in the diff properly i need to rework the rear end as the pinion back lash is far too great and i will burn up a ring and pinion if i do not give a lil attention to it.





things i am also lookin at doin is making a steal hood(because i have a spare) lighten it up and copy the opening of the panspeed hood but make it alittle more agressive at the same time remove all extra weight from the heavy bitch.



one last thing if anyone still reads this does anyone know what the max width of tire i can run on a 8"wide rim? i was thinkin 225/45r17 frount and 255/40r17 rear, there is only 1/16" differance in overall diam so would a 255 if and look right?

quiet loud?!!... https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/blink.png

whoops typo, i see atleast one person is still reading this lol, i ment ****** too god damn loud! is that better.
