demuire Posted July 14, 2004 Report Share Posted July 14, 2004 This is the only photo I seem to be able to find of Craig's Datsun's engine bay (PhatDat): It looks much better than that really. The guy who built all that stuff (and also built my exhaust and strut brace) makes some really nice looking gear. You should see the exhaust on PhatDat, it's really something to drool about. I think it's HPC coated too, where's mine's all rusty already :) Also suspension in PhatDat is... Very very cool. At least mine LOOKS vaguely like the original setup, PhatDat is virtually 100% custom built. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Jamie Posted July 14, 2004 Report Share Posted July 14, 2004 MMM LOOK AT THAT YUMMY i can so see something like that fitting in a corolla engine bay, none of this stupid J pipe under the motor crap. how's your short responsive intake tract :dance: if i was ever going to turbo a K engine, THAT is how i would do it. thanks fook :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pro_ke Posted July 15, 2004 Report Share Posted July 15, 2004 the supercharged 4k is a guy in adelaide, really friendly guy (reminder, i must get in touch with him again!) that datsun setup is very nice and would be ideal on a K motor (forget intercoolers, a good water injection setup is just as good in our type of application), piuty there is no way in the world you could make space to do it in a ke10 (you would have a pipe hitting your strut!)... ke20 or later though... :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Jamie Posted July 15, 2004 Report Share Posted July 15, 2004 surely you could rotate the compressor housing so it points up and have a flex joint to a custom plenum whose opening faces down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demuire Posted July 15, 2004 Report Share Posted July 15, 2004 Well... In PhatDat there really wasn't very much clearance at all between that strut and pipe - but that was fixed with some percussion therapy, right Craig? :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Killswitch Posted January 5, 2006 Report Share Posted January 5, 2006 So what sort of peak power was that fearsome K producing? And where do I sign to get one? I have a spare lung. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
