Re: Rev Heads beast * new pics*

well its time for a long overdue update. Ive been in Thailand for a few weeks hence no progress or posting but i HAVE made progress on the ITB setup!

i have stripped the gen 2 GE head bare so thats ready for some love from the die grinder.

i hadnt done much to the TB's because i hadnt setup up the manifold yet so for spacing and positioning and what not it wasnt worth finishing them. how ever i have no essentially finished cutting down and shaping the manifold. heres some piczzzzzzzzzzz





Heres a close up of the manifold, getting it right has taken me quite a while making sure the faces are flush


How the TB's will essentially sit


This is why i went with these TB's. The ID matches the gen 2 intake almost perfectly!


Im kind of broke at the moment so sadly wont be any more progress till after christmas i guess

 

Mafix: nope not even close. believe it or not it barely comes out further then the stock manifold.
Kev: yer will be giving it a port and polish. thats what i meant by love with the die grinder

 

kev you and me both!

Mafix, The plan is to eventually run just velocity stacks and uni socks however funding has been considerably cut for this project lol. so in the mean time i am looking at making an airbox so that i can run the AFM and use the stock ecu. just gotta work out the TPS issue

 

well yesterday was far from a good day as some of you will already know.
some other cars decided to spit roast my 162. a car stopped infront of me. I stopped and the car behind me stopped. The car behind that one however didnt and pushed us all into eachother.
The result:







In all honesty its alot worse then it looks. IMO to do it properly it will require:
new tails
new back panel
new beaver panel
new floor pan
new left hand 1/4 panel
new front bar
new number plate surround
new rear bar
new rear bar reinforcement
and then of coarse alot of bog and alot of paint

soooooooooo i havent had it quoted yet but i have a feeling it will be a rite off if this is the case tho you can all bet your ass i will buy another shell and build a cleaner and tougher car!
