My Dr30 Coupe And Where It's At

[DeRuX]

Did those RCA work out?? Did you buddy ever get his set?? Car looks good so far can not wait to see it finished.

[V8skylineMAN]

What's going on here then...

Any guesses?

you're going to attempt to make power with undersized carbys. thats my guess

[D-limo]

rego'd yet?

Aiming for compliance within a month.

Hey Derux! Installing them very soon. Am sure they will work great. Thanks. Did you not hear back from ghostrider?

Wrong

C'mon Jason give me some credit. Here's a few hints. Their 41mm, have no chokes and came out of one of these little terrors.

N/A quads on FJ sound insane.... but a turbo FJ has low compression doesnt it?

[D-limo]

Yep turbo motor will eventually make way for FJ20E.

[Socrates]

Will people get angry if you were to go L or RB 6cyl?

[D-limo]

Done both in moderately modified states.. Neither felt as good as a standard FJ.

+ RB's have no soul

Will keep the turbo motor for future project.

[Silent Shadow]

make sure you aim for 10,000 rpm lol

[D-limo]

Why 10k Cam?

8-8.5k should be sufficient.

[D-limo]

Rocked up this morning. Took pics.

Their side draught Keihin FCR flat slide motorcycle racing carbs from an 1150cc Suzuki GSXR engine.

[Silent Shadow]

cause an NA FJ20 at 10k would sound epic.

try not to take me too seriously lol

[D-limo]

lol.. Yes would sound rad, for the short time it stayed together hah.

[V8skylineMAN]

they certainly look the part, i would be interested to see if they can flow enough on idle jet/needle to get enough resolution for a decent idle on something twice the capacity they are designed for.

[D-limo]

I'd like a grumpy idle. From what I've seen their pretty sedate when jetted correctly.

Edit:

Ahh balls.. Pootube messing with me again.

My Honda 1300 Coupe 9 ran quad Keihins; they went and sounded great. Obviously, they were on a 1300cc engine though, so no idea how they'll work out on an FJ.

You'll score a million points for interesting if you do an NA FJ in my book.

[D-limo]

Won't lie, being different is a major factor.

Any pics of the Honda?

Amongst the many fitted to 1.6L 4age's.. Have seen them on 2 SR20's(+ an SR20 kit for sale on YAJ) and one FJ20. As well as two L series running sextuplets.

Mine are the largest model. From what I've seen they cope well with 50-60hp per carb.

[ydr030]

Not wanting to be to negative but to be different and go na ? Itd be a shame 4 a dr30 to get beaten by a corolla

[Socrates]

i dont have any objections to what you're doing

but reading ydr030's post makes me ask:

You have a full FJ20ET there don't you, and it works?

Why not just use it?

[D-limo]

Understand completely. Don't care about beating every v6 commodore at the lights with this car. Anything further than a high flow on this would be kinda silly anyway with the tyres and camber it has.

I think if weight is brought down to -1100kg and 220-240hp with these carbs it will still be fun, sound great and serve it's main purpose, being unique.

Turbo engine will stay until a lighter chassis is acquired and readied for conversion. (really want a 1600).

I have a sinking feeling Honda pics are on my old digi camera that I dropped then hurled into the bin without pulling the memory card... like a spaz. I may have some photos I can scan though - I'll see what I can dig up. There's a decent pic of the quad set up on the wikipedia page though for the meanwhile.
