Gen 3 Ecotecs are the direct injection blocks; A20NFT etc.

 

(Who bought that bare Gen3? From the US??)

well as my thread almost made it onto the next page... it was probably wise i updated the thread.

As most probably know a piston sadly left the family at snetterton on a stupidly hot day a couple months ago and had to leave it alone until after the house move.

but didnt stop me buying parts for the build. So.. when a darton sleeved k20z4 block come up for sale with minimum miles on it i snapped that up.

The new engine will be 2.2 with oversized pistons rather than stroker kit. Complete bottom end will be balanced and the crank knife edged, along with the head ported. I plan on re-using the original head i have as i have +1mm valves, valve springs and plan to keep the jdm cams for now... hopefully the valves arent badly damaged but we will see, when rich pulls his finger out


Also im changing the FD in the gearbox (thank you vocky )

a few other minor mods aswell, i will also need to fit an additional silencer for the national

Also managed to snap up a pair of reverie carbon seats






Here is a photo of the gearbox and engine out and a bit of a light clean...

Yeah I was more hurt by the cost of the reverie mounts to be honest!!! Better bloody fit

[pete-r]

Have you sat in them there seats? AGONY unless you have no spine or shoulders.

Ps I know of an even zanier spec car coming up for sale early 2019 which would save you a load of effort.

300bhp NA Honda S1.

Form a queue

Lol I like the seats, I find them comfy

The welsh must be delicate

[pete-r]

They'll be a bargain in the summer when you sell 'em

[The Batman]

I will suffer with chronic back pains just to prove you wrong

I conclude that Batman has no spine. Kinda what you'd expect from a southerner.

[The Batman]

You say that but the positions your mum gets in I think northerners don’t have one either!!
