looking to have about 600hp at the wheels hopefully, dont know how much power loss ill have to the ground with an all wheel drive, anyone care to shed some light?

the t04z is rated to about 700+hp, but i dont want it to be too laggy, im after a balance of power and response maybe leaning a bit towards the power side, if it doesnt work out ill change to setup

As the TO4z is supposed to perform similar to a pair of GTRS's, it would be fairly safe to say it will start making boost below 2000 rpm, have a good .4 bar by 2500 and achieve full boost by 3800-4000. The right cams and head porting + tune will make this even more responsive.

Hi Guys

I know its been like a year since ive posted anything... just wanted to let you know that things are still going ahead but just shitloads slower than i thought it would, ive been busy working and the engine builder has also had other commitments and hasnt quite finished it yet, he assures me it will be done within the next few months and i dont really want anyone else building this motor so all i can do is wait. I Spoke to him a week ago and he said the block and head is at the machine shop.

Ive boaght a set of TE37 SL among other things a week ago so i thought i would post that up

still waiting on engine builder, he has been so busy with other stuff its annoying, spoke to him yesterday and he said all the machining was done and the head is complete, he basically has to put it all together and take it all apart again then put it all together again.

he builds these engines in his spare time, he basically told me he used to do it for a living but there's no money in it so he does it on the side, and he also looks after drag cars so if they break or need attention that goes to the top of his list

THAT is why this is taking so long ><

I have everything i need except for this motor so as soon as it arrives...

No money in it :mellow:

My mates engine builder (I thought you may have been getting him to do it, that's why I asked earlier) is absolutely rolling in it haha. Very very very busy though. Anyway, I understand how frustrating it is waiting on other people! Looking forward to seeing progress though :thumbsup:

Well either way he puts these engines together at his house, he still relies on his friends in the industry as he doesnt have the machines to do the jobs a workshop can, so they take time but also gets the work done at a very good price and still very proffesional

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
