April 15, 201016 yr comment_429883 So this isn't a daily then? You know I love rotors but I'd never have a J-port for anything but a track or weekend only fun car. Think of it as a road car with a MASSIVE cam shaft in it. You do know what a J port is? There's other issues about them that make them nearly a race only motor..... like blocking up and grinding out water jackets. Report

Yeah it's not really a daily mate, my work is only 5 minutes away and i use an old sv21 to get to work. I was looking at bridgeys and that but i this one is smack on the dollar and its a fresh motor, i know they are a fairly aggressive port and are pretty much the biggest you can go before a PP and yeah i understand about the water jackets etc, i have to find out who built the motor etc first...

April 17, 201016 yr Author comment_430466 Gave the J-port a miss, above reasons were alot to do with it, mate talked alot of sense into me the next purchase with be either a fc or fd front cut, will save alot of time finding all the parts i need and i can sell off the extra bits i won't use, next thing after that is finding a suitable diff most likley hilux don't want a r31 they are ratshit, and 9" might be over kill for a car that will probably do 11's Report
April 17, 201016 yr comment_430468 Go the luxxy diff. More than enough for Ryan's 13BT Ke20. 9in would be something i'd expect if you were running something like a 20B/T or 8cyl's. Report

April 17, 201016 yr comment_430483 Have a search on the auto discussion page, there'll be something there about the diff widths etc. My opinion of the 9" that its also over-rated Report
April 19, 201016 yr comment_430821 Good choice RE J-port and front cut. ;) Get it sussed with the stocko setup/turbo and then you've got plenty of upgrades down the track. Stock diff would just hold up to the 13bt on standard boost and sedate driving so maybe get the motor fitted and running, then upgrade the diff...... then go for 200+KW. :lolcry: Report
