hey mate we are using a modified ally 4 core radiator for a eh holden

Hey guys after all these years its finally getting some colour. :blinks: All the inside of the doors are painted engine bay and the rest of the inside of the car is next. The motor is ready for the cylinder head which is heavily ported with some amazing flow figures for a 1jz head it's all coming together more photo's to come :P

It's been a while so here's a few pic's... things have been coming along nicely the bottom end is built ready to for the head which is in its final stages of porting its gonna be the best 1j head out there

Its been a while since ive done an update on the rolla so here's where we are at the moment We finally have all the body work done and all the repairs are in primer ready for the rest of the car to be rubbed down and put in primer ready for paint while the car was getting the rest of the body work finished off neil and I started having a closer look at the motor. We pulled the rocker covers off and didn't like what was hiding underneath was it was full of black sludge so it was time to rip it apart and see how bad everything really is After stripping the motor down the bottom end was in good condition bore and bearing wise so after a lot of discussions we are now building a new motor with a heap of goodies The cylinder head was drop out to my good friend Frank Intini from Race Engineering which he is doing all new Ferrea stainless valves 1mm oversized exhaust and massive amount of porting to make it really flow plus all new retainers , valve locks and valve springs to suit the new camshafts The bottom end hasn't been for gotten about either its getting hot tanked , bored & honed decked and receiving new 1mm oversized forged pistons and a set of I beam rods full ARP stud kit for the bottom end and the crank and rods flywheel and harmonic balancer are all being balanced so stay tuned there's more to come

Its been a few weeks since I last did an update on the rolla. Things are still progressing along we now have some new sparco race seats and the heavy duty tail shaft is made. We now have a panel beater and spray painter on board to help finish the rest of the body and paint work.

Heres some of the goodies to go into the new dash there's a GTECH egs tacho with the wideband sensor and a 8 channel module to plug up to everything we need to data log speed, boost, temp, fuel mixture, fuel pressure and anything else we can come up with there's a couple autometer gauges for fuel level oil pressure oil temp water temp and a speedo

there is 3 044 fuel pumps one to supply the surge pot then the other 2 supply the motor there is a twin inlet single return fuel rail with 890cc injectors its all plumbed up with 8an (1/2") aeroflow fittings and braided hose should be good for about 800hp worth of fuel :lol:

Thanks mate yeah that's one thing I'm glad I don't know how to do!! especially with the amount of aftermarket stuff going into this car

;)

Well the auto elec is organised and has started making the new loom the whole car is been rewired from scratch Now I just have to organise the ANDRA tech inspector to sign off an the cage and chassis work before I paint the inside and boot The rear quarter are just about done

I might be interested in helping you out down the track once I've finished doing neils rolla I'm in woodcroft

Thanks mate I spent a few more hours welding up the quarter panel and fixed the last spot of rust in bottom of the panel now just a little bit of shrinking to go then it will be ready for some primer :yes:
