Pineapplegti Posted September 23, 2010 Report Share Posted September 23, 2010 3sg toyota. square motor .=great motor.... This thing really rips with the tech 3.:blink:. Quote Link to comment
Pineapplegti Posted September 23, 2010 Report Share Posted September 23, 2010 waaaayyy waaayyy to much expensive go fast shit on that motor to break or adjust! I can be done.. it looks a mess because its bolted to the engine dyno.. Once everything is in the car it works just fine... the 2jz was a bit more of a shoehorn in the car but everything still fits ;) The car can run 4 classes in one day.. with a motor change.

Pineapplegti Posted September 24, 2010 Report Share Posted September 24, 2010 Shit, Pineapple you are a LSR guy? I love land speed stuff, one of the most innovative and free thinking forms of racing. I grew up immersed in motorsport..My grandfater ( basically my dad) has been thinkng out of the box since the 40s.. He was among the first to go to El Mirage to see how fast his ole flathead would run. He had the worlds fastest 4cyl dragster in the 60s.. Was the first to enter a turbocharged engine (doge colt motor / eg..mitsubishi) in offroad racing which was of course banned the next season lol. He was playing with electronic fuel injection when everyone tore it off and threw carbs on to go fast. I wish i knew half of what he has forgotten but i know enough to get me into trouble... I have pictures of me running around the lake in a diaper and flip flops lol ..The car pictured is a "modified roadster" :) Quote Link to comment

That's rebiulding the motor and su"s with a nice cam? well what else are you planning on doing to the motor? head choice? cam specs? pistons? bore? ect..... Quote Link to comment
Gumby 10y9 Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 some dudes saying that he can rebuild my l18 and can garranty at least 180 hp? Should be just using stock parts and a specific cam, wich i need to find out. So is that sound true? Quote Link to comment
Skib Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 your stock L18 is prob making half that right now. I think hes blowin smoke. and deff not going to happen with just the stock stuff. heres a excerpt from some L series dyno readings I have. Long rod L20B (RWD) 125hp @ 6500rpm 119ft-lbs The car has a L20B bottom end with 6 inch rods built by Troy Ermish. U67 Cylinder head prepped and ported by Rebello, valve job since redone by a local machine shop, large valves. The cam is unknown. It's some sort of cal cams camshaft that has a lot of overlap, I believe the lift to be under a half inch with a duration under 300. I do not know. It is running 44mm mikunis with the short intake manifold, and a comp header with 2 inch exhaust. The distributor is a Nissan black box unit which was just installed. At 5 degrees initial and about 27 degrees total we got 125 horse at 6500rpm and 119 of torque. These are all at the wheel numbers which are corrected for altitude and temperature. this long rod L20 is running mikunis, a pretty gnarly cam, and a head built by Rebello and is only making 125hp still think some random guy can get 180hp out of your L18?

Gumby 10y9 Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 just want 250-350hp. That's all. Quote Link to comment
Skib Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 just want 250-350hp. That's all. well your not going to get that out of an L4, or anything N/A that fits. your looking at a built up SR20det if you want that power Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 Stock L18 is around 80hp. SUs and a bit of cam maybe another 15. Depends. No motor should be evaluated solely on hp. A stock KA with 150 hp would be far far easier to live with than an L18 with 180 hp. Quote Link to comment
hang_510 Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 just want 250-350hp. That's all. thats all??? :rolleyes: and what do plan to do with 'all that'??? Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 just want 250-350hp. That's all. From an L18!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That's 4X it's stock output. You won't be able to drive this on the street...... hell you won't be able to afford it anyway. Quote Link to comment
