Engine specs? What internals, etc.

18psi 12-04-2015 09:15 AM

wouldn't the nb head also make more power? iirc the euro 1.6 heads are same design as us 1.6 heads right?

regardless, that power is nuts

Nothing too special about the engine. +1.5mm pistons, rods, ARP-all-the-bolts, ATI damper, oversizes valves, stiffer valve springs, Toda cams. Revs to 8300.

This 1.6 NB makes 110hp at the crank.

What's the primary use of the car going to be?

Brake boost supra racing. Pants shitter. Ditch eater.

This is the car who talk about the Reverant

18psi 12-04-2015 11:23 AM

congrats. your car is nuts

Car is nuts indeed. I have no want, but respect.

Have you taken it to the drag strip at all? I think that car would be a hell of a fun time on the street but a nightmare for track or autocross use.

Reverant 12-04-2015 02:11 PM

Guys, this is a drag racing car, and yes, it has been at drag strips multiple times.

90civichhb 12-04-2015 02:31 PM

Care to share the slip? I'd love to see what your MPH trap and 60ft time is. From the drivetrain it looks like you can really let it rip out of the hole.

Because impressive technical achievement :)

The amount of work that went into this car could have been done on any engine, v8, 1.8, 4g63, FE3 etc. they just picked the 1.6.

This car some times I run it in public road for street races and if it is put into a larger engine or swap engine the rules here are very hard and the fine was very big for this or police take the car sometimes

123mph is fast, can't wait to see the trap speed at full boost/power

Me to my friend..! Now the championship stop and start with new season until then wait...

90civichhb 12-04-2015 04:41 PM

If you can get that 60ft time down that car will post a very impressive time. Your trap speed is good for low 11s and possibly high 10s. That is a very fast car. Awesome work man, hope to see you pull a 10 second pass.
