Guy's,

As you may know, i have been busy hatching my nefarious plans for world domination. Well, my Championship at least. To this end, i have taken some lessons learnt from last year and moved the game on a bit. Given what i know works on these cars, and what i want her to be, i have started the consruction of the final iteration of the car.
The pictures below show the intake, exhaust and turbo system. Also shown ae a couple of pics of the new block this will all go into.
So her is a breakdown of what will begoing in.
1. new block. O ringed
2. Arrow forged steel rods
3. Woosner forged pistons
4. Ali flywheel
5. AP 6 paddle Cerametallic clutch
6. Pace dry sump sysem
7. 40mm Taper ITB system
8. 8 270cc RC injectors
9. Custom cam, with stock profiles, but greater lift.
10. Fully gas flowed and ported head, with 43mm inlet valves
11. Solid cam followers
12. Garrett GT series Turbo
13. 4 branch exhaust manifold
14. 3:1 Steering rack, with custom pinion gear
15. M&W CDI MultiFire Ignition system.
16. 4.5 bar FPR
17. side exit exhaust

There will probably be more to come, but this is all i can remember at the moment.
I would like to say a massive thank you to those that have helped, guided or inspired me on this project. As the saying goes, there is nothing new in this world!! All of this i have derived from the people and discussions here on this board.
Oh, and sorry about the mess, I'm in the middle of moving out!!

very best regards,

Steve
PS. I lOVE CNC machines!!!!

Extremely nice Steve!

Question: where are you going to take vacuum from now when you installed injectors to original CIS ports?

Hi,

I will be welding -4 JIC ports onto the runners, behind the throttle butterfly. They will go to a seperate vacuum canister.
This will then sit on the rocker cover, just behind the CIS located injectors.
there is still lots to do but this is just a mock up on my working block and head combo.

Steve

You were here this summer and didnt say!!!

You would have been welcome to come along to one of the events with Steve and I and all the guys from the club to see what we do here.....welcome again next year as is Lizard and indeed any of the 924 folk.

Caution though...it may be raining!

Simon, I didnt get much warning as to when I would be there, and you happened to be in Spain.

In fact I think you got back the day I left, and we would have missed each other by a few hours.

This time it would be longer,

And the rain doesnt bother me, infact I like it every now and then.

Very nice! Are the ITB's from the Toyota? What about the nice cast bends going into the ITB's? I notice the exaust manifold is highly fortified. Do you plan to brace the turbo? Anything special about the type of steel used for the exaust?

Ooh, very nice Steve.

Easy to see a lot of work and money has (and is) going into this build. Love your manifold, stainless steel?

Am interested in the details and source of your head studs.

Best of luck with it, but its money and skill really.

Wow Steve, very inspirational

. Good luck with it and keep us all supplied with lots of pics and info as it all progresses. What spec turbo are you using and what kind of boost are you aiming for?

Bruce.

stunned

edit: money sucking project

how much boost will you be running?

What's the advantage of 4 ITB's when you got boost?
