not sure what getting parts for something like that will be like, try find something that wont be too hard to get bits for cos you WILL break something
-
Rock crawlers, boats, planes, helicopters, whatever! :) If it's remote controlled & you play with it, put it up. :y:
Anything you don't customise Paul? :laff:
na not really, can't help myself, just got to feck with shit

hi guys, been a while since ive posted, or had any progress sadly, bought a dirt bike so that's been taking alot of my time
Christmas holidays came up and i thought it would be a great time to start doing some much needed work
made a bracket to mount the ls2 coils on
so i thought it might be good time to replace the starter motor as is been dicking up something fierce, like starting to get really hard to start because of it, not to mention embarrassing
considering the manifold had to come off to get the starter out, may as well get the quads on to aye
top of manifold off
bottom half off
and quads on, shit yeah
sorry havent got that many pics at the moment, will try to get some tomorrow
just about all the looms done, just needs some tidying up, didnt want to finish it all off before i knew it ran
first tried to start it late last week, had some issues, one had the fuel lines hooked up the wrong way, sadly took a while to figure out that one :bash:
then when got the fuel lines worked out, the fuel rail leaked around where i welded the an fitting in the end, i didnt realise it was leaking until i tried to star the the car and it back fired, causing the leaking fuel to catch fire F#@k!!!!!!
jumped out the car in massive panic, trying to figure out where the closest fire extinguisher was while trying to blow the fire out like a candle, lucky enough commitment with the blowing and it went out
pulled that off and re welded the leaking bit, installed, no leaks, still no start
left it for a while, broke my foot, left it longer
did a fair bit of playing with settings and stuff in the haltech of the last couple of days and finally got it running today
it only starts and idles at the moment, working on getting it to rev, there no good base maps for this thing so ive had to make my own maps, not easy, and
there is a vid, I'm uploading as I'm typing this, will post it as soon as it come up

i should be in for this havent missed one yet, and need some old skoolers there lol
-
alright, little later than promised, but here it is
this is the vacuum canister, there is a line from every intake runner, one to the booster and there will be one for the ecu, the silver thing in the end is the idle control valve, its off a n14 pulsar, nice a simple and small, two idle up valves and an idle adjust screw
the two idle valves should be good cos i have three different combos to try to get my idle up right, (one on, the other on, or both on)
speedflow fittings again hahah
on another note, been nominated for rcoty, awesome :dance:
-
took me a while but found it, obviously not going to be exactly the same as the ke70, but will give you enough to go off

edit, maybe thats not it, but found another site that said the new resister should be around 10k ohms

-
yeah ill have a hunt for it
some have a big enough trim pot in them, mine didnt
-
i had the same issue when i did the 7mgte conversion in my bundera
basically the tacho in the ke70 is set up for high voltage/output pulse signal, coming directly from the coil
the tacho signal coming from the v6 comes from the ecu, is lower voltage/output which means the signal isn't powerful enough to be read by your tacho
there is a way around it, there is a resister inside the tacho that has quite high resistance, you need to replace this with a lower resistance one, the resister is not hard to find, its the first one in the board coming from the signal wire
i can't remember the ohms of the resister i put in, ill see if i can dig up the info
theres also the issue of the tacho will be reading wrong, it will be getting 3 pulses for every rpm now instead of two, this means the rpms will read higher than actually are
this can be fixed by putting a potentiometer between the two wires that come out of the board to the needle, the +ve and -ve, you will then be able to adjust it to give the right reading
i hope this has made sense, ill try dig up the link, it has pics and stuff, it was for a hilux but should be similar

only small update for tonight, hit the piss way too hard last night, today was written off sadly (i hate wasted days)
made a trip to speedpro on Friday night and bought a shite load of speed flow fittings and weld on's so i was able finish off the fuel rail and started working on the the vacuum reservoir,will get pics of it up when its done
fuel rail done
i love speed flow fittings
paul

hahaha cheers guys, yeah ma can't wait, will be putting the quads on the new motor first, need to get a base tune sorted before in can run the cams in
running a new motor in and trying to tune it at the same time would be disastrous

yeah looking at computers now stu, got to suss something out soon
got a few things done on the weekend (was long weekend and finally wasnt working all of it lol)
got my new second hand tyres fitted, stretched like a bitch, not very confident in there grip yet but maybe they'll run in a bit
been working on ideas with this engine and its over efficient oil pump, they have a habit of filling the head with oil and running the bottom end dry if held in high revs, not good for me considering it have no mercy and will be 8500rpm limiter
so my idea was instead of stuffing around with restrictors like the RB's (there doesn't seem to be any for the CA, and I'm not about to test something out) is making the oil drain faster
so there's this hole in the back of the head which had a welsh plug in there, it opens up into the valve spring cavity
in which ive grinded down a 1/2 brass fitting to fit in there
and all glued in there, if i had a lathe or was patient i would have done it so it was a press fit sort of thing, but I'm not, so epoxy will do
this way if the head starts to over fill with oil, i.e. the original drain holes aren't flowing enough, then opil should rise up and drain out this fitting, which will have a hose to a return in the sump
fuel rain also needed some work, the original mounts just weren't going to work any more, and the feed line fouled on the #1 throttle body
so i removed all the ugly old mounts and feed line and made these mounts, I'm going to run a speed flow fitting in the front end for supply fuel, i just need to make the trip to get them
happy with the way it will turn out, needs a coat of paint yet tho
started making the new wiring loom, just working on the bits i can without being in the car, so all the injector and cas and temp senors stuff
-
Saw this stuff yesterday, looks the goods!!
The redneck knows his s$&t hey! Spewin about Mick's alloy setup though. He does a good job too.
Stu.
yeah micks work is always top notch, was really happy with rednecks tho :cool:
-
Can't wait to see this all together!
hahah yeah can't wait to have it together properly, every thing is just sitting there atm, have to heck valve to piston clearence and then take the block in to the engine bloke
-
And after a few days working on the manifold, match porting all 8 runners to the head, and matching the round port of the throttle bodies to the once oval manifold, knife edged the split in the port i was finally able to bolt the quads on and the trumpets on and smash it on the motor for some, what i would say are some what horny photos :dance:
-
finally a decent update
mate that i was getting the welding done by's welder died, so had to find some one else to do it
have a friend a the local 4wd custom shop (4b fab) and he did the welding on the manifold for me, they did a top job, and only cost a cool hungy
welded around the inside too
grinding it out to make it all pretty again (i have since smoother all this out, just don't have photo ATM)I've done a lot of port work, and has taken some serious time, i will never ever wonder again on why porting is so expensive, because with the hours i put in it sounds cheap lol
heres a pic of the work that was done in the head
i also got the head back finally, had it shaved down by about 35 thou, which will give me a healthy 12:1 compression ratio, cams and cam gears are in
-
Just measured it up. Ain't going to fit with what I wanted
Thanks anyways
