Nice parts! The motor looks good, nice work.

What size turbo is that? T3? What rods did you use with those pistons?

T3 50trim. Pistions are sitting on Eagle H-beam rods(LS tegs)

Thx bobafett. hows your build treating you?

Port and polished head
Polished exhust
pacesetter ceramic coated header
UnorthodoxRacing Flywheel (less than 9lbs)
diamondracing pistons (9.2:1 CR)
eagle H-beam rods(LS Integra)
balanced smooth tip grind crank
Coltcam Stage 1 turbo cam
walbro 255lph (need to make a SSbraided quick connect fuel line)
1g DSM 450cc injectors
accel ss coil
Golden Eagle 440 Adjust-tru adjustable cam gear
B&M fuel regulator w./gauge

*OBDI swap & tuning to be finished within a week or so. I was going to go with AEM but right now i'm re-looking at the EMS to see what is better for a cheaper price and give me the gains i want. I don't want to have to pay the big $$$$. I know Bob you were looking at Crome and Turboeditor? This has been a long time in the making but it's all worth it to me.

very nice, lots of good projects popping up lately. Always loved your car man, your suspension looks clean enough to eat off of.

coming slowly and surely. hoping to finish up the engine management before the end of the year, and get it tuned na, then finish up fabbing the rest of the turbo parts by the beginning of race season next spring/summer. :)

This is great how many turbo accords we are starting to get!

watcha hidin there buddy? wheres your intake manifold ;-)

I'm guessing its the dual stage intake with the top part of the plenum removed...

:wave:

BTW... Glad to see your still around Mase... When I make it back to VA hopefully I've have my 3g done and we can finally meet up...

military mase
10-24-2007, 12:25 PM
Yes , that's the top off of the intake. We just had it covered to protect it from dirt & dust. I'm gonna replace it anyway with another intake anyway. Sup jigga, how's it been up north. been doin' any racing, i'm still around. I'd be up for a meet.

Any specs on the pistons or an order number to reference? Since I'll be running the B18 rods also.

My job # was 20809. It may be some confusion on this cuz someone tried to mention the job # and it didn't come up. But if you get them from Diamond Just ask for Ron. Nice guy and very helpful

I just go a msg back from Robt's old AEM tuner and he just told me that if i'm not going over 11-12 psi to just use crome in which i wasn't going over 12 anyway. Told me the P72 can handle 11psi anyway. Why spend more than i have to Huh.

Hey bobafett, just went on the Pgmfi site and also honda-tech. Looks like a new sys is out the is better then crome....and that's coming from the maker of crome

yeah it you are running 12ish or less psi, crome or an equivalent would probably be totally adequate. :)

eCtune seems interesting, since it seems like its just a crome rip off lmao!

Their similar because the creator of Ectune helped make crome what it is now. Ectune looks like it will be a very nice program to tune with, I've been keeping up with it for a while now. Ectune is not currently released to the public but other than through an authorized tuner, but they just released ten copies for individuals to test and if all goes well it may be out by the end of the year. Ectune has lots of options that crome doesn't, I believe it will be worth looking at once its release if your considering buying crome pro.

I don't know where the thread is right now but i thing you have to go up in size on the wrist pins from 19mm to 21mm i believe.

Ectune is not fully out to the public yet but yes neptune is looking good to me right now becuase i was looking at it hard and it still looks comparable to ectune.

yes on the wrist pins, did you have the pistons made to match that? and i would go with chrome free + datalogging until ectune comes out. It would be a much easier transition when you get ectune.

10-26-2007, 11:22 AM
i thought with crome you couldn't do datalogging ....well not for free. I think crome pro which cost around 150 bucks for the program has datalogging but i may have been mistaken.

Oh yeah i made the pistons to match the wrist pins.

Need to go get some more plug wires and a coil. For some reason they fried on me while the guy was working the timing out. Weird??

correct. not sure about the d-series, but B rods need 21mm pins, and an a20 has 20mm pins. :) for sure.

you can run another program, i dont remember where i read it but you could try searching on H-T. just use it in conjunction with crome.

Forget H-T, Just go straight to the source the forums at Pgmfi.org. The program is called freelog.

Been out of town for the past 2 weeks at ft. benning , GA at school. Will be here for another week. The car runs but the guy that is supposr to weld it is now swamped with all his race cars that are coming in for repair. I hope it's done when i get back home. we'll see. The ae86 is on the front burner right now to at least get it drift ready for at least weekend events/practices.
