cranny Posted December 4, 2007 Author Share Posted December 4, 2007 i dont get people. im getting one either way , but this was such a good deal. maybe too good. guy selling a whole head package , skunk2stage 2 cams , skunk2 pro series valve springs and titanium retainers , and skunk2 cam gear for the intake cam , he wants 850 shipped. all brand new never used. wow man , i wish i had some more money. ive been reading a bit about IPS cams if you guys have heard of them , pricey but supposedly good.

lceah Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 VERY NICE! wow! amazing job... when it's all done, a vid of it putting American cars to shame! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xeryon Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 yeah, that guy that won't ship until you cross ship is most likely looking for someone to rip-off, which I am sure you are probably already knowing. patience will certainly get you what you want and the price you want to pay.

cranny Posted December 22, 2007 Author Share Posted December 22, 2007 as i was saying in the other thread there before VR shut it down , im gonna be picking up a brand new in box , ZEX wet kit. a buddy tat works there , owes me money , and hes getting it for me instead of paying me. the question at hand was how big a shot am i gonna run? forget who asked , wll im not sure yet. havent done much research on what they can handle. im sure a 50 shot wont hurt it. once i build the engine i want , K24/K20head , forged pistons and rods and block guard the bitch , im sure ill be able to run at least a 150 shot at the track. well see what happens. its funny you mention that ice , the first person i hooke with was an older fellow at work that loves his 04 stang GT. and hes crazy as hell , lol. well , we hooked up 3 times now , twice from a dig , once rolling start from about 35mph , he wont even talk to me anymore cause he got beat 3 times and i teased him , hahaha. crannys K20 - 3 , domestic junk - 0 , hehe.

Ben. Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 If you had actually ran "domestic junk" that was decently fast from the getgo (IE faster than a 1/4 mile time of 14.0ish or MAYBE A high 13 stock..)the outcome would've been different but .. Anyway, good work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cranny Posted December 22, 2007 Author Share Posted December 22, 2007 why would i race someone who i know is faster? my car spits about the same 1/4 as a stock GT stang , 15 flat approx. my car might be good for a 14.5 on a good day and good run. why would i race someone in the 13's? i know you like domestic cars dude , but save the hating on me cause i beat a stang , lol. me and a GT stang of that gen are a good even race. the fact i can beat any sports car with a V8 is pathetic on thier engineering part dont ya think?

Ben. Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 No, the fact that you ran probably the weakest V8 powered car that was put out in that era is what is making me respond. I'm not bashing you for winning at all but like you say, why run a faster car? It's not pathetic engineering, because if Ford wanted to make all of their cars fast they'd have made them all 32v 4.6 modular powered vehicles from the getgo. I'd call it more conservative, especially since GM had quit with the WS6/CamaroZ28/SS for that time period. In any case, I'm not jacking this thread out of respect for you 'cause you've done GREAT with that car. This is not intended to be hating. I was just pointing out the obvious.

TS John Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 Nice nice nice. I love seeing the patience you have when working on your baby. Finding good deals and waiting to put the whole project together almost at once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cranny Posted January 23, 2008 Author Share Posted January 23, 2008 paid for and my cu is shipped to him. i should have Kpro by friday. the injen intake tube fell through , club rsx owners wouldnt sell it to me cause my paypal address isnt confirmed , lol , so that sucks , was a good deal too. i should have cams for it in the not too far future. im pretty dead set on running IPS K2 cams. the good fact about them , is you can run a combo of OEM valvetrain for them. inner springs off a 02 type s only as they were dual springs that year. outer springs from my 04 type s head. and then retainers from my 04 type s head. rsx-s except 02 , has the exact same valvetrain as an S2K. which we all know is good for 9k so. thats good. so more to come boys. K20A2 + EM2 + 75 shot ZEX WET + Kpro tune + IPS K2 cams + slicks = at least high-mid 12 second car all motor. i MAYYY try and pick u some typr r pistons , but well see. i really dont wanna get that balls deep into this engine till summer is over , but well see what deals come my way.

CleanGSR Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 Nice cranny. I'd love to see you boost that thing to about 450whp, but I have a feeling that you'll be content for awhile running mid 12's n/a. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cranny Posted January 25, 2008 Author Share Posted January 25, 2008 i am content. why bother spending a whack and more chance of hurting my investment. motors good for me for now. on spray , theres not alot of turbo cars around here that scare me so , lol.

airjordan223 Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Kranny, i know what you need to do to complete the swap. first you need to take the type-s thing off the rsx, or if it says rsx-s that that off. then go to a junk yard and find a civic ex, take off the ex. put them together, and youve got yourself a Type-Sex, which is what youve made, pure sex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
