Did your flex joints fail, jw. Also any plans for ITB?

 

They kept getting ripped open scraping on speed bumps. We moved them back after the Y to a single flex.

No ITB. I hope I am done.

 

 

That is why I said hope.


lol

 

itb would be the next step, and an AWESOME one at that!

 

awesome build, people don't realize that the car is making monster torque - we are talking 330 at the wheels, like 360+ torque at the crank

to put this in perspective the e92 m3 makes 295 lb·ft at the crank.

Honestly I can only imagine how fun this is for a daily driver, monster torque on tap - this is making more then the basic stg1 vortex kits

 

Cylinder 2 was viewed through a scope and appears to have lost a piece of the top. The crank is ok, the rod is ok.

I will have a picture from the scope later.

 

Are you still selling it then? Or rebuilding it

 

Motor is for sale. Thread is waiting approval.

Car is for sale I have the new stock junkyard motor but it came with the solenoid mounting point on the front cam guide broken so I am waiting for a replacement from slidegood.

 

Sorry to hear about your trouble and the part out. What made you decide on this?

 

The car has become like a sexy high maintenance girlfriend that lies & cheats. I have had enough.

Thanks

 

Ouch.

 

Getting out of sporty cars or have plans to jump back in?

 

I am driving my Land Cruiser.

Whatever I get it will not be a Nisan.

 

I feel your pain! I dislike how overly complicated VQ's were

 

Detonation?

 

That is the prevailing opinion.

 

It is sad to see someone go through so much work and anguish to have is money go up in a spun bearing... then ultimately giving up... for cheap thrills I have found refuge in a B13 and I hate to say it but I love it more than my old Z because it is easy to work on compared to a Z...
