BrIaN EG2 Posted November 23, 2010 Author Share Posted November 23, 2010 yea castrol sucks. we took the vc off to replace the head and it smelled horrible and had a ton of sludge buildup. how come your straying from rp? isnt it suppose to be really freakin good? cant wait to see your sol when its turboed. what are your plans after that? maybe brake upgrade? since your gonna be goin faster ya gotta stop faster lol all about money.. RP is too much for just the 1hp it gains after build.. i want a brake kit (wish i could get project mu, or spoon) and ill try and get the EDM garnish, jdm front end, new wheels, bride seats, takata harnesses, roll cage, aaaannnddd PAINT! oh and probally a new steeringwheel with a quick release hub and ill be doing my secret interior stuffz soon hopefully c*nt why so hostile?

airjordan223 Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 jdm front doesnt have the reflectors. i personally dont see the reason for spending all that extra cash for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrIaN EG2 Posted November 26, 2010 Author Share Posted November 26, 2010 lol sorry, only messin. just jealous! Gonna be so sick when u get all the other goodies on ya wish list. But a JDM front end? whats the difference? USDM front has reflectors like colter said but the JDM front has no reflectors, foglights, bumperpole, and the headlights are one piece Lols. Now brian, that is just retarded. Just smooth over where those gash little reflecters are, and find some bumper strips! EK4 side bumper moldings belong on a EK4.. not a del sol.. looks retarded IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrIaN EG2 Posted December 30, 2010 Author Share Posted December 30, 2010 i know i know sebby.. the shop had issues with the machine shop the took my block and head to and he was lolly gagging with the block and was supposed to bore it out a tad bit more but "accidentally" bored it too much (84.5mm) so they made him order new pistons for the build.. they just got the block and everything put together except the turbo.. the turbo and wastegate should be in by monday and it should be broke in and tuned ready to go by wednesday.. and yes sebby 700whp >:] i want mag coverage and if a 700whp daily driven del sol doesnt do it then i have no idea WTF will lol.. of course i know i need a few more things for the car to make it more "pretty" like wheels, some interior work, and a tad bit of body work.. but the engine is DONE! car should be running low 10's high 9's with slicks, a traction bar, and a good driver oh and a little update on the body work.. my insurance is FINALLY fixing my fuccking door and other dents, just have a $200 deductable..

DelSolSweetie Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 all about money.. RP is too much for just the 1hp it gains you should NOT run royal purple for horsepower.. its stupid.. the hp gain shows the lower friction it provides royal purple is a VERY good oil.. better then mobil 1.. mobil 1 isnt 'bad' but its older technology and royal purple beats it in every test for protection and i find it hard to believe you'll put this much money in a motor and NOT buy amsoil (15-20/quart or somthing like that) or at minimum royal purple (~7-8/quart) and what made you choose that size turbo? also why did you choose that intercooler design? What fuel system are you running? how much are you changing the cooling system? and you never said what new wastegate you were going with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lastresort576 Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 buy stock in tires etc. even if you claim to be a good driver homie..Hp etc. can be made on just about any car easily, it's actually getting it to do anything which makes the difference.

BrIaN EG2 Posted January 8, 2011 Author Share Posted January 8, 2011 you should NOT run royal purple for horsepower.. its stupid.. the hp gain shows the lower friction it provides and what made you choose that size turbo? also why did you choose that intercooler design? What fuel system are you running? how much are you changing the cooling system? and you never said what new wastegate you were going with? turbo size; great boost, quick spool for its size, GOBBS of power intercooler; i told them go with the best FMIC for this build, so they went with the blackworks FMIC fuel system; 1000cc bosch injectors, blox fuel rail, and fatty fuel lines, and a FPR cooling system; staying stock.. seeing that when i was boosted before my temp gauge NEVER moved past the C, im not going to change the cooling system much at all.. maybe a fluidyne rad and a thin fan a little later but for now its staying stock any more questions sarah? and heres some pictures for you guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DelSolSweetie Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 any more questions sarah? yes actually so besides what you could have read from reviews of the turbo or were told by the shop did you look at the compressor map? do you have it? you should out it with the build stuff to show you picked that turbo because YOU looked at effiecieny and all that (unless the shop did it for you or was not considered) I just found that design interesting.. i've also never heard of blackworks.. maybe its a honda thing.. link to intercooler? I also didnt see a blox fuel rail (link?).. i did see a blox fuel pressure regulator.. interesting you went with that.. heard their stuff was kinda cheap? Why are you not going with a larger fuel pump? bigger lines and injector are going to need a better pump. ae you sure your temp sensor is not broke? it shold have went past cold.. if it didnt your car wouldnt have been running at optimum temp. ever.. and not to mention if you say it stayed at the bottom 'c' your saying your thermostat never opened? also isnt it a dumb idea NOT to better the cooling system? is it not true that higher octance fuel has its rating because it wont ignite until a higher temperature? so as you can imagine there will be much higher temps for 115 octane (or whatever you said your going to get 700 hp with). you also never said what wastegate you are going with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamEj6 Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 i dont see how exactly she is hating, just asking questions that it seems like he overlooked. and a stock transmission and 700whp isnt gonna work sorry. and you WILL have to make the cooling system better, i can assure you of that. good luck daily driving that thing.

adamEj6 Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 word, i was like 700whp daily, fuuuuuuck lol. its sick thus far though dude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DelSolSweetie Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 I figured you'd end up around ~350 daily if numbers come out as planned.. still kinda sucky for a DD honda IMO lol if temp is there its fine.. sounded like it never went to middle.. i'd still consider upgrading asap to be on the safe side ive seen a lot of people use precision.. i want to keep the twins with the 1j and have no idea what i'm going to.. bf wants one of the new garrets or maybe one of the new borg warners? (i havent had time to look at them much).. its a good idea that you kinda let the shop help pick it though.. too many people just pick a random turbo and dont think about everything that goes into a GOOD turbo setup Are you using an aftermarket ecu?
