that turbo's not big enough lol

well ladies, i now wont be ready anytime this year :D shrek's just left and there's bad news, the crank's farked (not really a biggie) and the pistons are stockers. so saying that, and knowing i have the spare ported head there, i'm not gonna put the std head back on with forged rods & pistons, i'm gonna wait and do it properly. big cams, springs, valves, finish the port job, and forged rods & pistons.

i hate ground up builds :rolleyes:

f**k shane..........do something and get the ball moving. Your just going to pro long the whole thing a million years into the future.

Tip for ya mate.

Aim for a power figure that you can achieve more easily. Do what you need and get it done, less waiting around. Car gets back on the road and you can start having fun.

well the way i see it michael.

I've gotta get atleast pistons, there ~1200, then machine work, ~1k, then may aswell get rods aswell 890, then whats the point in putting the shitty stock head on with that fully built bottom end (have got all studs, bearings, acl headgasket now) when i have the ported blank head there that will be going on at a later date.

the budget i set aside to get the thing running by december didnt include new pistons or the likes, so this year is now certainly outta the picture. im over it, anyone got a light? sigh

What type of Falkens did you get.

unsure.. check tomorrow morning i will..

sleeping & workon on the car

235/40ZR18

265/35ZR18

285/30ZR18

In a Yokohama Advan A048.

Looking at more so the last 2 size's. However I may not get a 265 on the front with the current offset. I would really like the same profile all around, but it appears they dont make a 265/30

get me a price on the 255/40/R17's as well. But im more interest in the 18's as I want bigger tire then a pussy 255 rear, so 18's it is.

I'm not happy with the current 275 road yoko's, I can't throw the Porsche around hard enough enough. Typical Porsche, motor too far back, go in hot and feel the back come around and then play catch the tail. Just need something grippy and sticky as a mofo most of the Porsche guys seem to be using Advan A048's, guess it seems to be doing teh trick.

I dont care about price as I'm not rushing out to buy a set next week as these tires are new at the moment, that and dad will buy them

    • Bummer...yeah i "need" something to "ease" up the work and for my driving it would be enough.    Iam counting the tune "without" turbo. I do not mean "cheap" like something from Temu around 200 USD, "Cheap" is something around 1000 USD? 
    • Starter motors used to use the weight of metal (magnets) to provide torque. Now they use (more) current instead. This. It's completely normal.
    • So thing that had me stumped, but I think is OK....is that when it was up in the air, in neutral I had it running to bleed to coolant while I put the wheels back on. I noticed the rears were turning (slowly) which I'd never seen before 20250928_163512.mp4     Because there had been an issue with clutch slip due to pedal adjustment on the dyno, I assumed there was still and issue so spent some quality time upside down under the dash adjusting the pedal....but no matter what I did the wheels still turned in neutral. Even disconnected the master cylinder to pedal rod and same. In despair, I even removed the clutch slave so there was no chance of any preload causing it.....still happened. So either: 1. Something is not right in the bellhousing, or 2. Its a thing sometimes with cold, thick gearbox oil Internet says it might be 2, I hope so!
    • OK, few more things sorted and it is ready for a shakedown on 10-Oct, with one weird thing. Changed the run in oil and filter for the good stuff. 8l came out, about 8.5 went in with filter so that looks all good. Changed the starter (again), this time for a brand new one, works good. Interesting that the Taaaarks one is shorter than factory but spins harder, I guess electronics have moved on a little in the last 30 years. Will be nice to have a bit of extra space under there. Put the timing cover back on, and noted where the cam gears were set as a record.  Will need to double check the timing but it is pretty close. Also put the coil pack cover and intake snorkel back on. Exhaust Inlet Changed the water out for coolant, bled up nicely. Removed the rear brake pads (well worn factory sumitomo ones!), gave the hardware a good clean and reassembled. I've put bendix XP on the back again because the price is excellent at $150 a set and they worked well on the V37. Front pads have plenty so no issue there
