Default ///-The Side Build-\\\

So here is something me and my buddies have been working on. The car is my roommates but honestly, we all share anyway and we all put our time in on the projects, who ever needs the most attention at the time haha. Not DC5 or EP3 related but this is the forum I hang out in and I just thought you guys might like to see what's up. I'm sure you guys have your side deals too. I am actually selling my personal side car today, my '87 AE86 GTS coupe Anyway, here is the info...

This will all be going on a '93 EG hatch...

B20B Block w/p72 GSR Head
Golden Eagle VTEC Kit
Wiseco 12.5:1 CR pistons (the head brings CR up to about 12.9:1)
Stock Shot Peened Rods
Micro Polished Crank
Cometic Head Gasket
Type-R Oil Pump
GSR 22 Tooth Water Pump
Innovative Mounts
RMF Replica Header
Omni Power Valves, Springs, and Retainers
Jun Auto Stg. 3 Cams
Blox Intake Manifold w/ Hondata IM Gasket
Competition Stg. 2 Clutch
Competition 8.5lb Flywheel
S4C B16 Transmission
Omni Power F-12k R-10k Suspension
etc...

Then of course all the cute little dress up stuff haha. Here's a couple pics too, I honly have a few. It's getting set up for break in and tune as I type this. We're hoping for 240+whp and about 175-180ish wtq. People with similar set ups are making 250+whp so I don't see why we won't be close. Oh and this will be daily driven Let me know what you guys think and maybe some power estimates would be fun too...

P.S. I know the valve cover looks like crap, it's just getting worked on, still needs some work, only threw it on for pics haha...

Lol ^ hey... hey, calm down buddy lol...

This is the only recent pic I have, but I'll be taking some tomorrow at the HT meet here in Seattle, and actually get some good shots... Numbers are 244whp 170wtq with vtec at 5700 and redline at 8700. It was making power to 9k though ) just wanted to keep it a little safe, seeing how we have stock sleeves. The thing is fast too, tied with a 450whp GSR-T Del Sol, spanked a Dinan supercharged M3 twice, spanked a 2.0L GSR twice, etc... (all closed course racing I'll have a dyno sheet up in a couple hours...

Hey guys, random bump and update but... if you would like to see this bad boy in action, search "kent street races 10.23" and you will see a video of my buddy driving against some of the locals. Some good runs in the vid. It was a fun build and it was definitely worth it.

Disclaimer: All scenes took place on a closed course with proffesional drivers

Oh and we have another project that we just finished up ready to sell. This one is just for a quick sale...

LS Turbo
Nissan T-25
Drag Cast Iron Manifold
Custom Charge Piping
Turbo XS BOV
Completely Tucked Engine Bay
ETC...

Got the shell from a friend of ours and it used to have a 560whp turbo B18C5. Kinda cool, so we thought we would continue the trend of boost in this one. From shell to complete only took 1 week to finish

Oh yeah, the all motor one is the fastest car we've built. Out of over 30+ cars, including boosted, german, and other all motor set ups... that's sayin a lot haha. Pretty soon we hope to get a nice LSD in it, ITB's and a little more head work. I have a buddy with a similar set up that's running low 11's. The boosted LS is prolly only making about 250whp or so. The turbo is pretty small and it's only on 7lbs. The turbo spools super duper loud though haha, and makes full boost at 2500rpms
