-Harry- Posted November 20, 2015 Author Share Posted November 20, 2015 (edited) Got off the dyno after a little check. Pinged coming on boost and was the same up top. Pretty reflective of slightly more CR. 192hp on 11psi. Actuator pressure brings the boost on pretty gradually. Given the stock engine, might be for the best. 7200rpm limit, stock 5efe Edited November 20, 2015 by -Harry- Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AdamB Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 Love that torque curve Harry! Great thing those 5E's. What's your CR at now? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
-Harry- Posted December 17, 2015 Author Share Posted December 17, 2015 Well it was an eventful end to the year. A very wet track was no good for PB's but I managed to be at least 3 seconds a lap quicker than zuboo and miles ahead of the rest. Another First in Class and First outright for the day. This being the 6th and final round I also received 2 first trophies for the Season. The Zuboo boys cleaned up. There is another 2 trophies from the street series too. Multiple excursions off the track, including getting beached in the rocks after turn 1. After the final session the engine started to get a be hot. Could be head gasket or could be some damage from the rocks into the radiator. All in all the engine felt brilliant. Couldn't be happy with the $200 block. Now we rebuild for next year Quote Link to post Share on other sites

-Harry- Posted May 19, 2016 Author Share Posted May 19, 2016 (edited) Thanks Guys, I was after something a little different after my last engine gave up. It's a K20Z4 and gearbox. Plan A was a Kawasaki zx14 engine/gearbox + turbo. Was deemed too hard/not reliable enough. Enter Honda power. I've got a heap more pictures and details I'll update later. It's actually pretty involved getting one of these in there. Especially when you ram it this far back to improve the weight distribution. Will also have a 125hp shot of nos to get it moving on the drag strip for Jamboree this year, Edited May 19, 2016 by -Harry- Quote Link to post Share on other sites

-Harry- Posted October 16, 2016 Author Share Posted October 16, 2016 (edited) Alright it's been a while since I last updated. First up I got it tuned and it currently has 173 extremely linear hp at the wheels. Overlaying it against my 280 hp graph is disappointing. Polished the inlet manifold and added some color. If it's slow at least it can look pretty. Anyway, took it out to QR for a shakedown. Initial feel and throttle response is great. Lost the bolt which stops the throttle body over extending so that ended the day prematurely. Next up was Jamboree. I wanted to run the gas but couldnt justify the cost of a new clutch just to run it for 1 day. Threw some old slicks on and straightened the wheels. Ran consistant 12.3's all day with a 12.2 @ 108mph at the end of the day All Motor. Very happy with that considering the hp. The 6speed gearbox feels amazing compared to the starlet box. 4th gear burnouts along with 8500rpm limiter and dump the clutch all day long. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ra_vTIr9lio I then went back to QR with my issues solved. Also trialled a new light weight splitter. Car is feeling very strong and balanced. Ran consistently all day without backing off. A little bit of understeer in the low speed corners though. Ended up cracking the 300mm rotors on both sides so went home early. After that I headed to lakeside where momentum is rewarded much more than outright hp. Took some getting used to as I havnt been back there in 5 years. Got stuck in traffic most of the day. Just when I got a clear run, I hit some debris entering Hungry and went wide off the track. Splitter is destroyed (underneath too) front bar is also heavily damaged. So I need to do some repairs and the plan is to get back to lakeside for the end of august. I've bought a 70mm billet TB and some 440cc injectors. Thinking about some cams too. After that maybe a rotrex or a turbo. 450hp on std engine sounds pretty good to me.
