7FOUR7

G'day, I can pick up a ca18et single cam out of an s12 gazelle for around 300bux with turbo, dump, inlet, injectors and loom. Wondering what peoples thoughts are on dropping it into a keto??

Yeah I have the old zoom mag with the WI setup in it

yeah daz ill take that reg mate just pm me how much you want for it and your details. brad

I've had a few quick cars, manual rb25 vl Calais 320rwkw.. This thing was obscenely fast, could not grab traction first 3 gears even at 120kmph it would blaze the rears for as long as you could hold it. I also had an rb30 vl Calais making 290rwkw through a full manual transbraked auto, this thing was faster than the manual but nowhere near as scary as it would actually hook up and I had an r32 gtr with full forged engine, power fc, n1 turbos, twin plate and bilstein adj all round... If I couldn't win races on the hiway with my manual Calais because of traction issues I'd race home - grab the gtr and go blaze everyone there with 9000rpm launches. Now look at me, looking at getting a ke and turboing the 4k haha

Very good idea mate, my old setup didn't use a pump at all. Have a look at www.riceracing.com

I'll give it a shot, after all it's only a stock 4k so I'll just use an eBay water/meth kit. I had a very good system that was pressurized with boost in order to pump it etc made by riceracing on my vlt. Darren uses the same kit on his r31.

Here's my old ride. I hate myself, read the thread and you'll know why. http://calaisturbo.com.au/showthread.php?t...ighlight=7four7 Ps can someone upload the pics as I'm on my iphone

Cheers daz did u get my pm on Calais turbo regarding your old setup?

Cool as long as it's q bit of fun, I've had a few quick vls, one with 320rwkw manual and another 290rwkw transbraked auto so I know what 4th gear 100kmph+ burnouts are like :P

What sort of performance could I expect from a ke70 with 100rwkw? 14s and a bit of a skatey ride when I want to pop the clutch?

Nah dude just a bit of daily fun and the experience of doing it myself

I'll be using a 4k with cam regrind, jetted carby, frontmount, t28 or similar and maybe water meth inj

So I'm not really familiar with carbied engines but how do you guys tune these things? Do you just change jet sizes until it doesn't flood or ping? What if I wanted to up the boost from say 8 to 12psi, would I have to change jets again? I'm guessing I'd only have to change the secondary?

Also has anyone run water/ meth injection on thief boosted k setups?

Wastegates don't flutter man, that's compressor surge. Can anybody answer my carby question?

Was just wondering for symetry and neatness sake, something different to the others you know. Also how big should the secondries be drilled out in the stocko carby? Sorry if it's a noob question but I'm not very familiar with cabies I come from a vl turbo background

Would it be possible to run the j pipe under the engine so you wan mount the turbo on the opposite side?

No problems, thanks for the straight answer dude

Could you just weld a length of 60mm rectangle tube to the x member so it's closer? How much clearance should there be? Also does the bonnet close with it sitting high?
