kingkarl 136 Report post Posted April 18, 2010 That is so insane. You should be proud of what you have built. Say what you like, but nothing sounds nearly as good as a high performance N/A engine. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hybrid 1039 Report post Posted April 18, 2010 Sweet, the ones on the car in the video are the other set I have.. which will be used for track days. The tarted up ones are for playing nice Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hybrid 1039 Report post Posted April 18, 2010 That is so insane. You should be proud of what you have built. Say what you like, but nothing sounds nearly as good as a high performance N/A engine. thanks I have had A LOT of help from my friends on this. I'll write up a big thank you thread later this week and whos been helping out on this. Lots of free time and effort to make this happen. The problem with putting this type of engine into one of these shells with all the trimmings is pretty much everything need to me modified or rebuilt to fit.

Forrest 35 Report post Posted April 18, 2010 Awesome job Josh and co. really given me something to aspire to one day, credit to you all. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hybrid 1039 Report post Posted April 18, 2010 hehe .. yeah, bit of a dream come true really for me. I must add, we didnt want to risk driving it with no bumper on around the main roads so it was small bursts up and down the small road. Also I should add its running horride 8 month old 98 in the tank ... might as well be running it on 91 :/ lol Should run a lot better on a fresh tank.

westy 614 Report post Posted April 18, 2010 Cool bananas. So ya sorted the little charging issue? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hybrid 1039 Report post Posted April 18, 2010 Yeah opened the altinator up and sorted out one of the coils which had started to earth itself. the altinator was from the first engine so wasn't really in a known state. Managed to suss it and get the majic 13.5 volts from the battery took a lot of the day however. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hybrid 1039 Report post Posted April 20, 2010 Back home now after some final prep at rays. 2 Now its home we will work on the tidy up tasks and interior bits and pieces. Also some final bracket fabrication. The whole thing hasn't quite sunk in yet haha .. The drive home was pretty interesting .. third gear pull to above 200 was pretty much a mouse fart for this engine. Its left brendon driving the 330 1/2 a K back in no time. no question .. F**k it moves. I must say im really enjoying the e30 smell again in my garage .. with added extra of other burning sh*t. Something I dont miss, the smell of e30's haha.
