Because it's not too expensive, it will help me accomodate the fuel pressure sender, i have time, i'm pretty sur i'll benefit from it preformance wise, and i'm on it, i'm doing injectors, fuel pump, so why not?
|
Well if you have the money then yea for sure. I was just curious but overbuilding is a good thing so your doing it right at least!

First: Great build. Impressive attention to detail, and you're really really doing it right. Nice job!!
[Minor threadcrap] May I just point out... I've noticed that most people here on MT.net call the walbro pumps 190HP or 255HP. It's actually LPH, or litres per hour. So it's a 255lph pump, not a 255HP pump which would get confusing. [/minor threadcrap] |

Wich, if i'm not mistaken, supposed to be the high pressure version of the 255lph. |

I got the 775 FIC injectors. Besides the fact it took them 3 weeks to get me the adapters, they are great. Mine were really closely matched. Entered the numbers they sent into TS and they idle better than stock.
You need to majorly redo some fuel settings though. |

"Functionning" tought it would be a bit quicker by doing maintenance and format. But it's dangerously slow haha, so i'm looking for a used laptop! |
Try Ubuntu on it. Tunerstudio will run in Linux from what I understand.
If you can install XP, you can figure out Ubuntu. And it will make the laptop MUCH faster. Maybe not fast enough, but hey it's free why not give it a shot. |

If you didn't have to pay Canada-Tax, I'd sell you a cheap ass used IBM T40/41/42/43. I literally dumpster'd 15-20 Dells of that same generation in June of last year. I hate those damn things. |

I'm going to breathe into a paper bag, and then post this link: Meet Ubuntu | Ubuntu
But to be honest, I've started using Linux Mint w/MATE as of late. |

Had a few hours in my hand yesterday, so i messed around a little
I got the boost controller mocked up, but still need some good silicone vaccum hose. https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1359308395 Got rid of the 89576485768 sticker in the windows. https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1359308395 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1359308395 Also, worked on a intercooler plate, so that the air flow would be better, plus it helps the bumper hold together. https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1359308395 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1359308395 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1359308395 It's no exotic material, Mild steel. i will paint it this week, flat black! |

Wow! it's been a while!
So i got all Management, fuel on the car! car went super all summer long! 10-11psi, good tune! Had a few goodies added to the car during summer. A set of quik-latch for quick bumper removal. https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1382308534 A set of Advan A032R https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1382308534 And i got my hand on a super cheap set of Toyota COPs https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1382308534 So this is where the 2014 project comes back to life. Sunday, October 13th, i decided to get a bit more juice, so i got the boost up to 12-13psi, fuel was perfect, timing pretty conservative, car was pulling like never before! So i was going back home aroung 11:30 at night, hard launched, motor grenaded before i even get into second. This is what i got when i got out to inspect damages. https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1382308534 And this is what i discovered on Monday! https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1382308534 Had 2 hole in the block, and oil pan totally screwed! https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1382308534 So i got to work, got the engine out! https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1382308534 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1382308534 And began disassembly this weekend. https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1382308534 And then, i got trought this https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1382308534 And this https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1382308534 And this!!! https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1382308534 So now, my project is'nt locked down! i will rebuild another BP4W(internals are still on the descision bench), probably service transmission, and depower the rack. I am open for any kind of suggestion/advice for the rebuild! |

Damn! Nice carnage shots! Sucks to lose the motor but its impressive none the less.
Any chance there is a log? Post the timing map maybe? |

https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1382485149 |
damn man
that sucks but i gotta say, after going through all the pages...and spending all that money...why didn't you build the motor? it would've been just 1K more...which you now have to spend on getting a block plus internals... or are you going to keep stock bottom end? |
Because everyone thinks their BP is magical and will somehow hold up better then others lol.
Also you see all these threads with some people runnings 15psi+ on their miata's, and people think that's the rule, not the exception. Also boost is addicting. Also I blew my 1st engine doing exactly the same thing: raised boost to 12-13psi after a few months of 7psi and couldn't get enough of the newfound power and torque. We live and we learn :party: |
I was accually planning on a rebuild this winter, but the engine blew up before that, btw, i knew from the begining that bp rods were shit! But a rebuilt around here cost way more than a 1000 bucks, only rods and piston, once duty and taxes paid, cost more than a 1000$! I could of rebuilt the engine this summer, but thats kinda dumb idea knowing i dont use the car november till april...

So i got my hand on a "new" engine, bought the hole engine for just about 350$, it's a BP4W with about 122XXX miles, previous owner claimed a crooked crankshaft!
On first look, it looked oily as hell, but not THAT bad! They had a hard time removing one of the exhaust manifold stud. https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1383180302 So i got it in the shop, witch looked like this :eek4: https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1383180302 And got working on it, removed intake first, looked good. but already i could see that the engine had a hard life then mine use too had! Next, was the valve cover, that where the party started! :ugh: https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1383180302 It was caused by this! https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1383180302 Got deeper https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1383180302 AAAAAAND deeper! https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1383180302 These are connecting rod bearing, 1 to 4. And this is 4! https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1383180302 So, i got to conclusion that this engine had little(or no) maintenance, oil leaks, and oil consumption, and propably oil starvation. So i have to take both crank and block to my machinist so he can tell me if both crank are srap, or good. Also seeing that oil starvation, pushes me to dissasemble part on the head, before selling it, to be sure it's all good! |
that is one toasted engine.
and yes, you better make sure every single rotating part is inspected because oil starvation has a tendency of toasting nearly everything, not just the bearings |

So i got my hand on a 2001 6 speed (with about 41 000m) and a MSM Rack and pinion for depowerering, since ratio is shorter(about 2 1/8 turns lock to lock VS 2 7/8 for the 99-05 non-MSM), i tought that would be the best to depower!
So here the 6speed laying aside with the 5speed https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1383613539 Had a some time off on sunday, so i began the depowering! Here is the rack, this is how i got it, 500 miles, inner tie-roe popped out in accident! https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1383613539 Stripping it! https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1383613539 Stripped https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1383613539 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1383613539 Reassembled and plugged! https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1383613539 I also removed the spool valve, checking for the famous "loose" in the pinion shaft, wich i don't seem to have, so i am going to try it like that! I do have a tight spot about in the middle course, i don't know if this is normal? i followed tightning sequences(43ft/lbs 3 times, slack it off 25 degrees) lock to lock seems find, it's only in the middle! |
Super master n00b fail! 43 in/lbs not 43 ft/lbs -_-

What can i do to enhance the weirdly done BP4W intake? i already removed the flappers(and i'm going to plug hole! but, any thing else? other then porting and polishing(wich i am waiting for the kit to come it)
I don't want to spend on a supa JDMy0 flat top intake! https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1384211737 |
I didn't weld the pinion shaft either, it scares me thinking about it.
|
I'm still hesitant of doing it! one of my buddies have his welded, i'm juste waiting to see the result, i might change my mind.
|
Started a thread on https://www.miataturbo.net/engine-pe...6/#post1076771, because i'm getting kinda confused!

Gnaaaaaaahahaaaaaaaaaaaaa, i'm so exited, i got my hand on a use(almost mint condition) Bride Stradia Carbon/Kevlar! Got only one tho!
https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1385914653 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1385914653 I still need to test fit it in the car, mesurement looks alright! Even got cat approval! https://fbcdn-sphotos-d-a.akamaihd.n...29454949_n.jpg |
This post needs some heavy update!
2014 was quite a year for me, i tried hard to get the car up and running for the summer '14, but personnal and professional change had made it quite difficult! So if i go back from where we left the thread. I did a mild exhaust port polish and intake port clean + gasket match https://scontent-b-ord.xx.fbcdn.net/...8d&oe=54E5438D https://scontent-b-ord.xx.fbcdn.net/...31&oe=54DC40A0 https://scontent-b-ord.xx.fbcdn.net/...5f&oe=54E6B2BC Prepped and painted the block. https://scontent-b-ord.xx.fbcdn.net/...f3&oe=54DAB282 As i was waiting for parts to come in, I got my Rack&Pinion pinion chaft TIG welded! https://fbcdn-sphotos-d-a.akamaihd.n...2cbbb4f43169be |
So as the prepping continues, i got my buddy willing to get me some cam gears while he was in japan for a couple of month, so i got all exited and this happened.
https://scontent-a-ord.xx.fbcdn.net/...43&oe=54E809DB Then got some custom thermostat adapter spacers, blank with ridge for a miata sized thermostat to fit and clocked for kia's neck. This is test fitting on dummy engine/head/bellhousing. https://fbcdn-sphotos-b-a.akamaihd.n...89be423d7de21f |
And then, parts started to come in, wich my wallet was unhappy about!
Radiator + Fan shroud. https://scontent-a-ord.xx.fbcdn.net/...7f&oe=54E19097 Pistons and rod(84mm 8.5:1 wiseco) too pretty to even put into an engine! https://fbcdn-sphotos-e-a.akamaihd.n...ffec23d3fa5bca Manley rod(wich i had to compare with stock ones) https://scontent-a-ord.xx.fbcdn.net/...c5&oe=54D2A9AD And then, a buddy see's the picture, and send me this back(Stock BP rods VS 6XXci truck pull alcohol engine) https://scontent-a-ord.xx.fbcdn.net/...24&oe=54D43E26 The super sexy, excessive deal, free shipping Toda cam gears(intake for cam sensor)**Don't mind the stickers please :D https://fbcdn-sphotos-c-a.akamaihd.n...e05ae080a52484 Supertech HD valve spring(got a set of exhaust valve Standard size but did'nt got them on picture) https://fbcdn-sphotos-f-a.akamaihd.n...c6782d3d1261ce Super miata damper.(To fit with ZM-DE reluctor wheel.) https://fbcdn-sphotos-c-a.akamaihd.n...6da850752d4b36 And non engine related parts, Bride seat rail(for low max) because my custom one i made had me sit a bit high... https://fbcdn-sphotos-h-a.akamaihd.n...112cef5353ef4e |

And there it is, final assembly for 2014, just got in in storage for winter, had barely the time to break it in. Sorry for poor pictures, will get some nice one next spring, since winter around here are pretty bad! Will post future project in a list form. Since the car is running on stock exhaust, 1.6 stock clutch and 4.10 gear with 6 speed, there is going to have some changes!
