Yes, but it is the camshaft BCD and lifter shim surface area i'm interested in.

as for getting you the head, thats not a problem.....i will be stripping it soon, to start the prep for the install of the 2.2 stroker parts

the other generations are all the iron block 3s-ge, and gte as fitted to mr2 ,celica and avensis...plus other models
however the Altezza and Caldina are the only cars fitted with the alloy blocks,
the altezza also has the Yamaha developed head, with the titanium valves

to disable it, is a simple case of fitting a head gasket that blocks the oil drilling in the block

If the VVT is disabled mechanically (head gasket) then it can't be re-enabled without pulling the head, so its worth us looking to see if we can't find a way of doing it another way so that its fully controllable at a later stage. Its worth a few hours investigation with the head, a car battery and a VEMS

DriftLexus · 20-10-2005, 17:25

so we wish to go with keeping the vvti.....i shall order a "normal" headgasket then.

i have the option of these 2 turbos, but have to decide quick which one.....

HKS GT2540R good for 370hp, and also a GT2835 good for around 400hp

both have internal wastegates, its obviously not a case well one is able to run more hp, which is prolly better for this application, the gt2835 is the more modern of the 2 , the 2540r is now discontinued by HKS

Hold off on ordering the Head Gasket 'till we've got the head at Bens and I've had a look at it.

Rob

excellent.....matchams is next weekend

was thinking of passing the head over, unless there is someone coming from over that way who could pass it on.

Which will be the weekend before the delivery date, so I may be working it

Surely you'd be best to bring the bits over in one go when you bring the shell for its cage fitting? Then we can impress you with our charm and banter

Rob

DriftLexus · 20-10-2005, 17:59

hmm true..gotta experiance the banter....better be a good pub near you

but
i just thought it would give you time to prod and look over the vvti set up,

regarding the cage we need to see what direction these D1 regulations are gonna go!

need Ben to let me know on the 2 turbos.......

HKS GT2540R good for 370hp, or a GT2835 good for around 400hp

suppose i want to know which he thinks is better for power delivery

saying that i have 2 GT2835's on my other car and they spool up from pretty low down

BenR · 20-10-2005, 20:45

pubs round here are for local people only...............lol

Ben ?

BenR · 20-10-2005, 23:02

if your going 2.2 i'd go with the GT28, if you design everything properly to work as a system then you will have no problem spooling, or even making power on very little boost.

However, i'm not a fan of toda stuff, and always opt for something else better, and in most cases cheaper.

DriftLexus · 21-10-2005, 12:50

im getting the TODA pistons and crank cheap enough, $2000,(direct from japan) the Eagle Rods cost £500

Ben ive sent rob the compressor and turbine maps for the 2 possible turbos, maybe you will wanna have a quick look......i need to decide which im gonna run with in the next 24 hrs

there are 2 gt2835.

one with internal wastgate, other requires an external.....

2835
0.73AR /56 T
T3 flange
external wastgate required
will Bolt on RB20det / RB25det so that gives idea of use

2835
52T
T25 flange
internal wastegate
will bolt on SR20det / CA18det , S13 S14 S15 180sx RNN14

DriftLexus · 22-10-2005, 14:25

got the turbo......

a nice GT2835, should be here in a couple of weeks...now, what else do i need

PhatBob · 22-10-2005, 15:07

An external wastegate for starters, have you seen the manifolds that Full-Race do for Toyotas? I dont know much about the dimentions of the ports etc so they may not fit your engine:

DriftLexus · 22-10-2005, 19:34

erm, nope not external wastegate, the picture was the other for sale....posted by accident

there is no room for external wastegates, and i only found one manifold in japan that would fit, with external.

internal will save a bit on instalation headaches, fitting a 2835 will be bad enough as it is.

the 3s-gte manifolds do not fit the sxe-10 altezza

Joe · 22-10-2005, 19:51

Look up Tom's Racing in Japan.They do a T280 Altezza,which is the Beams engine turbochaged.These are 280bhp stock.

There might be some info there that might help your build.

DriftLexus · 22-10-2005, 20:02

thanks.

i know the TOMS cars very well.......good as they are, there not quite in the same dimension...

if you can ever get one in good nick though there worth keeping in storage as there worth a few bob now

DriftLexus · 24-10-2005, 19:08

ok...im looking at injectors,....
which size would best suit the application....and can you recomend a GOOD fuel pressure regulator

PhatBob · 24-10-2005, 21:30

RC injectors seem to be popular in the US with the Honda tuners.

They provide an injector sizing page here.
