As many of you know Andrew was involved in an accident which put his R to rest(The Cone). He recently picked up another R from Dropspeed if i'm not mistaken.
I got a call from him today and he told me he blew his motor on the dyno. I'll let him chime in when he sees this but from what I understand the exhaust cam spun about 15 degrees, thus ruining his motor. For someone who's been through so much already, it was painful to hear.
I got you som JDM ITR pistons, from my motor, which are all yours for free Andrew. Let me know what else I can do for you. I got your back man and good luck.

 

Hope everything turns out well.

S(J)O(D)L(M) - for looking out for your fellow brotheR

 

Damn, sorry to hear.

 

yep spoke to drew last night on aim.. sad so sad.. i didnt even get a chance to see it yet..damn cam gears!!!!

Oh jesus, I thought you meant his new R. Whew!

Anyhow, that sucks *** about the motor. I thought he might make it up to Road America this past weekend, guess not.

What brand cam gears? AEM? Doesn't really matter, sounds like a mistake on the adjuster's part, to slip right there on the Dyno.

Another reason turbo is more reliable than N/A.
(hahahahaha, neither are reliable, just kidding)

hey. Yeah, the exhaust cam gear slipped to full advance. The tuner did, however, torque the bolts to spec with a digital snap-on torque wrench. Go figure? Anyway, I'm in dire need of a head, and probably a block. I'll get pics up in the next couple days. My friend back in MI is going to tow the car back and pull the head tomorrow hopefully. I'm thinking of going a little milder on the build. Maybe Toda Spec A or BC Spec 3+. I guess I learned the hard way that you have to use reliable well known parts from the start. PM me if you have any info or can help in any way...

Good Luck on your endeavors

 

Keep your head up Drew, again it happens to the best of us(me who is going through his second motor rebuild in 8 months) and can only make us stronger....if not a bit more hostile..... . You got my number, call me if you need anything.

You know what, he should be getting a K series anyway. B series is "played out".

 

I've been thinking how nice it would be to have a trackable/race worthy 400+ DC2R, again ... some day.

 

K20 is even 'played out'

Better get a K24a2. Maybe a group bUy, because I know La Polla Diabla would be all up ons that
