maddox710 Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Socks spoilt it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Socks Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Socks spoilt it Someone else would have! Left it wide open there! Tbh tho, if this was a conversion I would be doing. Id run it up N/A first, get all the kinks ironed out, run it, test the balance of the car, see how it behaves before boosting it! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Socks spoilt itThere was no spoilers really, you can clearly see the rocker cover and theres not that many engines which require a modified mount on that side. Ie gearbox being in the wrong way.Really interesting build Rob Although you shoulda just told us ages ago Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Amjad Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Now that it's been revealed, I can say that I've been thinking about this swap for a while for my GT haha Hope all goes well mate, will need to get details off you for the people who are doing the conversion!

Glanza Mac Posted April 15, 2014 Author Share Posted April 15, 2014 Few more :-) Very tight to the point a few altercations had to be madeBit of room for a turbo :-D Rob. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Great work dude similar amount of work as a 4age swap from the looks of things You going to run it n/a first or go straight in boosted? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Glanza Mac Posted April 15, 2014 Author Share Posted April 15, 2014 Unsure yet dude, need to pick my turbo and I'm picking up a forged and sleeved engine from a friend who has changed his plans hopefully :-) Rob. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Glanza Mac Posted April 15, 2014 Author Share Posted April 15, 2014 (edited) High Engine mount on passenger side and low engine mount on drivers side...Meaning the engine is on the passenger side and the box is on the drivers side...Only one engine I know of that's like that...B Series Vtec Engines...Also, bit of playing with the URL's of those pictures, its not hard to see the entire album with pics of the engine bay You knew what it was anyway.. I told youI put those pictures up with a few hints to see who would pick up on them :-) I don't have to keep this a secret no more as I am no longer classed as some randomer claiming a engine conversion as it's in the progress and it's nearly done, I didn't want to be one of these who bang on and be a shoulda woulda coulda but never kinda guys :-P So get hating fuckers because this Honda powered starlet is soon to be ripping the streets, tracks and strips up with hopefully some big power :-D Keep following the marmite build hahaRob.

Socks Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 You knew what it was anyway.. I told you I know. Still think 2ZZ-GE turbo would have been nicer Keep it in the family haha Gonna be interesting build! Run it up NA first tho, see what you think! Potential Monster in the making tho!

Glanza Mac Posted April 15, 2014 Author Share Posted April 15, 2014 I know too many people with b series engines and would be stupid not too because we are all tuning them up so we all have parts etc and the same interests for each other :-) I would of liked to keep it Toyota but it's different and they are reliable and tunable so what the hell haha :-P I will keep it n/a for a bit because I'm sorry to say it morgey but I want that n/a power title haha, have a bit of competition :-D Rob.Yes sure lew :-) as soon as it's done, we will arrange a cleethorpes/Lincolnshire meet? :-) Rob.

Liam_D Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Keeping an eye on this! Very very interesting build! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Glanza Mac Posted April 15, 2014 Author Share Posted April 15, 2014 I reckon with some integra or skunk2 cams and Inlet, I could see the same :-P To make this fair, we need to get our results from the seats dyno :-) Rob. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 haha there was a b18c4 with them mods and some more on at the same dyno as me the previous time i went when i made 175ish that was in the 18*'s (i think it was 182ish) would be interesting to see on a run, however the extra few lbft from the 1800 would help yours along in the real world ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
