boosted98gst Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 welp only half the car made it back to ohio lol, this is my spare set up thats going to be built, if anyone needs any imported engines/trannys or full front clips, I can get anything you want, with warrenty cheaper then anyone in ohio, my friend edward owns r&d is california and isthe largest jdm importer in the lower 48, you get video of the car running in japan before being cut, and leak down and compression numbers, this motor is alittle highmile at 102kilo, but leakdown test was 97% across the board. I checked out under the vavle cover and oil looks like honey with no gunk build up ect, very nice motor. http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g127/boosted98gst1998/Picture135.jpg http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g127/boosted98gst1998/Picture152.jpg http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g127/boosted98gst1998/Picture153.jpg http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g127/boosted98gst1998/Picture154.jpg http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g127/boosted98gst1998/Picture134.jpg http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g127/boosted98gst1998/Picture133.jpg started to strip out the clip http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g127/boosted98gst1998/Picture169.jpg http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g127/boosted98gst1998/Picture168.jpg http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g127/boosted98gst1998/Picture167.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boosted98gst Posted April 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 yeah I get the things so cheap I just get the whole front half, its a much better way then putting everything together, that way I knew the engine ran ect, it was able to start right up, before i pulled the harness. plus you get more goodies that you can sell, the brakes, 5 lug, swaybars, cluster, ect I pay less for the clip then people do on motor sets.

Buck531 Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 I feel like I'm watching pictures from F&F Tokyo drift. You're gonna get falcon punched if put that into a Mustang! . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boosted98gst Posted April 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 what are you doing with that? im tired of 4 cly big turbo cars, tired of the lag and lack of tq ect, now I see why supra guys love the inline six, I know this is no v8 but makes more power then alot of them stock for stock, and with simple turbo upgrade and fuel, people in aus and japan have taken these motors 600 hp on stock internals with ease, this one is going to be built, and my other rb is my weekend car, while this engine is going to m&m, its not going to be hard to push a 240 coupe xe base 2600 lbs down the road. guys with this swap are running low 12's just with basic mods. now its time for huge turbo inline 6 in FR light weight car.

Farkas Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 just curious, think they could source me a complete engine harness? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheHaze Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 Buying a front clip is also safer to ship the engine in, rather then a cheap crate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
