I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

pictures are cool! (56k watch out)

Post by phan » April 17, 2004

after about a year, my friends' MR2 motor is DONE. don't ask why, it's a long story. :P either way, we went to the shop last night and i snapped some pics... Image Image Image Image the motor was done by SP ENGINEERING initially, but our friend david re-did the entire motor. block = resleeved, rods (forget which), cp pistons. head = "pan's port + polish", hks 272 intake cam, hks 264 exhaust cam (or vise versa, i forget), hks cam-gears, crower(?) valve train...eh, i can't remember everything. the turbo is a ball-bearing gt30, though. :nod: after tuning, we're hoping for 400whp.

ok, time for some fun. let's see who can guess what rims these are: Image eh, here's a closer picture: Image hint: panasport? hmmmm, nope! :P

ohhhhhhh and another thing, i ditched the b20 for a new project...here, i'll give you another hint: Image Image *and i'm still going boost. :)

ki'mdonethxbye.

WHY?

I like long stories...

seems to be a very nice buildup! get figures as soon as it's broken in aaaaight...

and you're going gsrT? cool... I'm still thinking what to do with my next VT... it used to be boosted, so all alterations needed are allready on the car, besides the turbo / fm systems... but I'd go for other parts anyways...

So basically, whatever I do, it'll be aaaaall good...

The CRX and the motor are hot. The motor looks scary.. I love the HKS cam gears, looks hot with the Tial BOV.

Wheels are MUGEN MF8s or Rota Circuit 8s?

Can't wait for the GSR-T to be done man! 400 hp ought to be easy with both motors.
