AND THE DB1...it's the daily and still a work in progress




STOCK LS FOR NOW...THIS WILL BE A BOOSTED DD WITH A/C


HIS AND HERS...

and every piece of plastic out of the car. 919-331-4106 dustin

 

Very nice...

 

i love it I wana get a four door for a daily

 

Guys there is a good friend who is going to be parting out a 93 GSR, since he was/still is selling the shell but looks like no1 wants the whole car, so if you guys need anything from it, Ill leave ya the link here with the info and pics...

PS: I think Im going to be keeping the tail lights...

 

Oh and the pass side electric seat belt too for the wife´s car, since I went to the local Honda dealer here and they pretty much laugh when I told them they needed to fix that, since there is not safety regulations here, going to the Honda dealer here is pretty much a waste of time...

So I think I just going to buy that one and just have that thing working on the car here...

 

Wow. Jump to conclusions much? I never said I was against these products, just that I wouldn't use them in an engine build.

I don't live my life through the internet. I have seen FIRST HAND the flaws with some of Skunk2's products, whether it be their springs (breaking), bushings (cracking), cam gears (poorly machined for cam key), etc. These are mass produced parts, so there are obviously going to be some flaws. I'm not trashing the products, but I would rather go with another company that I've never seen problems with, even if I were to spend more.

Quality control?

 

well I am going to be at about 12.7:1 and I was guna go with the blox stage 3's... I believe my comp will be high enough to run them... if not I will get some stage 2's


okay I haven't been in here in a few days... I didnt know posting my setup would cause such a problem lol...

any way so Albert got kinda busy and couldnt finish my bottom end so I am still waiting for it... Oh well at least I dont have a deadline... I just cant wait to get it

 

Sorry didn't mean to jump to a conclusion, I have seen so many threads lately of people trashing products for the worst reasons. There was a guy in the FI thread that had a S2 cam snap on him and have since talked badly about S2 just for that reason. Things happen..................

From my personal interactions I have never had (Knock on wood) issues with S2 or blox products, hell even my OBX LSD is holding up and works fine. Thats another products ppl rag on. That diff has seen soooo many track passes..

I guess we all have our own interactions with things and draw our own conclusions...........

You did hit the nail on the head with quality control though.

You said LS block with stock HG and CTR pistons right?
I'm not sure your compression will not be that high, how did you perform your calculations?
With those parts it will maybe be around 11.6 - 11.8 or so.....

just trying to help you out I have been there and those cams are not right for that setup.

 

obx lsd is so hard.

went through 2 whole seasons on my buddys racecar, now the tranny in a 670hp crx...

old school

 

Yup!
The only reason I bought one was because several of the local 600 - 800 Hp guys were running them. I figured if they hold up for them they can hold up for me.
Just need to take it apart and put it back together!

 

81.5mm pistons
emailed endyn they estimate 12.7:1 + or - .2 for human error
plus every calculator I have used says 12.5:1

 

LoL 81.5 mm pistons yes, but what pistons??

 

there you go... I figured you had already read that lol

 

Ok I just wanted to make sure.
Yea I don't see that high compression out of that configuration, especially with a stock thickness head gasket.
I could be wrong.......

 

go to c-speedracing.com and go to the how to's
but the CTR(PCT) pistons have the highest dome out of any b series piston plus with the stroke and bore of my bottom end...
JDM ITR pistons would give me 11.5 or so
check my build thread I got pics of the pistons

 

orly?

just don't put CTR pistons into a b18c bottom end with a P72 head unless you dont want to keep it for real long.

 

really? are those pistons too big for the "enclosed" chambers on the P72 head?

 

 

^^Chillin at the Holiday INN^^^
come on guys... you need to read it is an ls/vtec
b18b bottom end b16 head lol
no gsr here and yes it all clears... second time I have done this set up only the first time was with 81mm pistons now I am bumping it to 81.5's

 

Well I am saying those pistons in a LS block, B16 head and stock HG, your compression will not be that high, but what do I know..
Maybe somewhere between 11.5 - 12 cmp

Also bumping it up from 81mm to 81.5 isn't going to do anything really.

Good luck let us know how it comes out!

 

bumping it by .5mm will raise the compression by .2:1...
compression ratio isn't just in the pistons, there are a lot of factors to take in
bore, stroke, piston dome height, combustion chamber volume and a bunch of other factors... an oem b series head gasket is .029 in. thick so with that and my piston dome height and the b16 cylinder heads cumbustion chamber and the 89mm stroke gives roughly 12.45-12.55:1 on every calculator I have used and when I talked to endyn they told me 12.7:1... anyone I have ever talked to said that the CTR pistons will net the highest comp ratio out of any OEM piston and that they are perfect for an all motor build.

The JDM b16a pistons on the other hand are slightly smaller and will net about 11.8-11.9:1... So I think you have your pistons confused

 

oh yes the only thing I forgot to mention is I am using an 81mm headgasket which changes the comp ratio by about .005

 

LoL oohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh k.

 

dear tom, most of us have been doing this for a long time. explaining it to us like we are 11 year olds only makes you look dumb. just tell us what you do and then take pics, we don't care about anything else.
