i had a dyno sheet in my car wen i got it and it was recorded at 380bhp it was in the glove along with the other papers when the car got taxd wen i got it back they were gone along with my back seats i had left in there and my car washing fleece!!! mofo\'s


if wat u guys are saying about the gains etc and 380bhp max out of twins, then it musta been for another cars sheet, cant poss be mine cos it doesnt have those mods just zorst hks, hks induction, hks dv,hks coilovers otherwise i dont really know about the engine cud have been tuned in japan but i dono because its just as quick as my bros supra (well almost) and thats pushing just under 400bhp with a t78??:confused:

So know one has a 20b engine in there shed then?

I have a 20B in my shed spare.

I did a rough summary of this ages ago which I cant for the life of me remember any of the numbers from. Poor mans conversion still probably £10K minimum, £20K+ to do it properly. Depends how silly u want to get really e.g. you could run it with a MT LT12 ecu for £800 or use MoTeC M800 with all the shit about 10 times that+...

did the site just crash or sumthing cos it wudnt load any page on the site all??!:confused:

i had just types this bigass post bout my engine and then clickd submit and sed page not found:reallymad  then tried reloading from home and again pnf!! wateva

neways i aint got any pics of the engine but ill take sum after it stops bloody raining. if u look at the engine though it just looks standard part from the hks induction and dv no big front mount which i know is essential for big power no polishd piping nothing like that so its weird. as for racing the supra i think it might b a weight thing?? (or my bro must just b crap at shifting:p ) i dono sheet musta been from another car...


first thing to do wen i start the car again will be to take it to wgt? in northwich and get a checkup done c if evrything cosher after those f*cks ripd the shit out of my poor new car...how much does it cost btw? cos i can service myself oil change, oil filter, fuel filter, flush radiator and change plugs etc

After owning the twin set up FD for 2 years. I have now decided to embark the single route with a T88 set up. Sure at 20, it will be a pain on insurance.

Ultimately, my reasoning for single was the obvious choice which is increased power gain and a 10 sec 1/4 mile aim by next May

If you\'ve had the FD for long and feel comfortable. Prehaps give the single route a shot or uprated twins is a safer option for increased power.

I\'d definitely recommend starting with a PFC and possibly Commander too if you havent already got one. The safest method to extract more power from your current FD.

*thread hijack* By the way, i\'ve got a spare rebuilt fd engine with a T88 set up going spare

[monkeyboy]

Freddy what a coincidence you have a spare rebuild engine going spare and i have some cash for a new one

Can you give me more details about the eng, mods, miles its done when and where rebuilt and how much you want for it

From an insurance point of view are they bothered its single rather than twin? I know its a daft question but most insurances companies dont have a clue

[Freddy]
