But thats the thing, What problem i had in my Build ? According to Wossner that piston was deffective and thats why it failed, Have you seen anything else causing problems ? Ive bought what i should and what was available people are going another route in here and start talking s*** for no reason is not about is my car and money, what gets me mad is if my build is so badly done why all of them almost have what i have you get my point if you know and is easy to build an engine like this or make it better why none of them have once again i wonder why..
When i first started this thread and posted pictures and info everything was awesome, good, well done, now that one deffective piston fail everything ive done is s*** and not done correctly and im being cheap, s*** give me a break
Iam not an ass or arrogant but they are forcing me to be one.
NO! no one is going to give your cheap ass a break! Get back to work on that car. (wrc)
Obviously im kidding about the cheap ass comment.
Well you know me man, You think what have been said about my build is fair ? You think im being cheap ???? I still want to see any of those people to do anything better than what i have done and achieved Period !!!!!!!!!
try reading the bottom part to that post and calm down buddy.(friday)
You dont need to be sorry man, what i said was not towards you, but is pretty damn easy to come here and bash you know, if is so easy to build a race car why they still have the same s*** and not done it the way they are telling me to ? I wonder why.
internet like i said none of them pays my bills or hobbies so they can all say what ever they want...
best mentality you can have to keep cool...
yes i remember when you first started on your car i had gotten mine.. you were one of the first with rx8 wheels and i was close after..(east coast) (2thumbs) feel same way about the wheels.. altho mine was primarly used as a daily.. at least i can tell you i built my own personal pride and joy pro street 1980 corolla (700hp 48 psi).. i kno exactly how hard it is to spend alot of money in to a car with all of the best..And i do my own work.. once you have a reliable motor you can start adding the psi and tuning.. to get to your desired amount.. safely..
and do this be for you close your motor: http://www.c-speedracing.com/howto/claymotor/clay.php atleast it will tell you if your valve is touching your piston..
...I know i still need to fix and upgrade some stuff to make those 600 HP I want reliable...
Again, you need to realize that this IS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN
600HP is nowhere near reliable on the FS engine. The sooner you realize that, and change your goal to build an actual reliable 400HP or so, you will be MUCH happier with the car.
I feel your pain with all this. I run into some of the most basic things turning into the biggest pain in the ass. You buy something cheap or expensive from a company, thats used by other members with out any problems, and yet there you are stuck with having to figure it out why its failing. I think any of us turbo guys running over 12psi respectively, and wanting to go more have encountered this at some point.
My reason for chiming in is in hopes to help you by saying even the guys offering advice are doing so out of experience. Some may offer advice with a stronger way of wording it, but they are usually the ones a bit more passionate about what they do.
I wish you the best of luck. I have approached my final build with this car and would like to do it right. All my supporting mods are 500hp plus capable, yet my intentions are to never exceed 450hp. I will most likely want to keep it at 400, just in hopes that it will be enjoyed longer than what it took to build it.
Good luck bro. I am in the background cheering you on!(2thumbs)
What did you make power wise? I think the 505zoom mani will get you there without much more work.
cams shouldn't have that much of an effect on emissions... I'd at least go with a stage 2 integral or something... honestly you're choking off your engine on just a JDM cam.
i know guys here have passed emissions with em... do they actually use a sniffer on you, or do they just read codes off the OBDII?
