  1. Fk that . Id swap heads . Trade down . Tbh u wont notice the difference between some ej20r heads anyway .
  2. The diff gears dont give 2 ****s it one alloy bit of swarf goes for a lap . Hold the vacuum cleaner next to it as u tap it . Do it all the time on bikes
  3. http://clubsub.org.nz/forum/archive/index.php/t-210-p-19.html
  4. Photo bucket is pretty easy . Failing that jus use face book lol . What did you do for cams ?
  5. Yea one idiot put gtr t25s on one and rapidly worked out they were too small
  6. bigger tmic is not really achieving anything . unless your stock one is causing a pressure drop ( restriction) due to physical size . if its bigger it can absorb more heat from the charge air but then it has stored more heat it has to dissipate. i really doubt a v7sti cooler is physically restrictive so my answer is no
  7. 100 % of people with any idea what they are on about would say buy the 97 .
  8. Buy this http://clubsub.org.nz/forum/showthread.php?47895-FS-1997-Legacy-GTB-V5-STi
  9. Lol yea and short shifters wear out gearboxes and no bov will cause compressor surge and wreck a turbo
  10. Gunna compound my foot up your ass shortly
  11. Im gunna open it and make sure nothin is rattly . Lathe the hump off the pistons myself and do head gaskets . Thats it . If im feeling particularly rough in gunna use the big router to mill the piston tops in situ ...
  12. Yea your onto it marky . All that has been pondered . Yea prolly flip manifold . Might go single throttle body . But try keep it so it diesnt effect the iris . Twin low mounts us fibe for a boat or an offriader but it will never package nice enough for me in a car . I cant stand silicon elbows as a solution to a problem that shouldn't exist
  13. Itll fit . Seen plenty of photos . Odd about the cooling . The water pump is the same fitment as a ej motor so dont know what they fkd up to cause it to cav . Mayby its higher flow so turns to an egg beater at high rpm . Also lol at the guy in that thread who thought a bigger oil filter would help with oil surg on the track
  14. Cooling ? Seems to be plenty of plus t builds with rx7 radiators . Whats the theory ?too much engine for the water pump and hose size ?
  15. Ha ha . Doing it wasnt up for discussion . They actually fit not too bad . Rx7 radiator under the rad support . Can get rid of half the length of the crank pulley . After that I need a 6 speed . Then a car to put it in lol
  16. Got half a mind to get an eg33 and mill the top off the pistons down to 9:1 compression and shove a big twin scroll on it and run upto a bar on 98 . In all the time ive been on here I havent cone across any eg33 builds . 100kw per litre would be satisfactory I know v3 and 4 sti lifters ect fit . Does anyone know if shim over buckets etc would drop in ?coz id jus go to nick a part and find all the ones I need . Apparently a few people rev stock internaled turbo ones to 8.3k . Given its same engine geometry as ej22 I dont see why not . Twin tdo4s appeals in theory but fk itd be a mess of an engine bay Any other discussion welcome
  17. There is no need for a compound setup on a petrol . Ever . You can run 60 psi plus out of a single stage . Diesels however love compound setups . 120 psi out of 3 stages
  18. some photos and carry on as fas ac i can tell the diameter of the 27 vs 14 wheel is within .3 of a mm . from the ass . but end . 27 wheels in a 27 rear housing and a vf14 rear . but which is which dun dun dun vf 26 exhaust wheel in a 26 27 and 14 rear housing and some things i did with a router
  19. Looks the same ... it spins and doesnt scrape when pushed and pulled on . Appears to have the same clearance around it . If the inducer diameter and the radius on the edge of the blades is the same then it will work wont it ? I have a 26 wheel and shaft spare . Ill poke it in and post photos
  20. Yea in reality the entire engine has to breath through the puny ill fitting p14 housing except for the 1 %of the time you drive it on both turbos . I figure it will be more econimic and nicer to drive off boost aswell as better on boost . I rekon even just tapering the inlet of the p14 would have a noticable effect Really needa compare on a car that is already running vf 26 27 combo . Quite interested in exhaust back pressure throughout the rev range also . I rekon I could max these grays and green before I got high enough boost for it to be higher than egbp .
  21. Both sides are ball bearing vf27 with p18 rear housings . And a lot of port matching on the primary side seeing as all the turbo inlets are atleast 10mm smaller than the uppipe
  22. Tru . Either way its far too nice to be the crank doin it
  23. oh come on dummies . its a 3rd position thrust engine . is that not hint enough also do you think if a crank was grinding on a alloy block it would machine it perfectly smooth ? no it would be all galled up to fk
