TBRE donk finally in
-
Got the turbo, wastegate and high mount today, should have the plenum back tomorrow from the powder coaters. engine was supposed to go in yesterday but had to replace the spiggot bearing which got picked up today :/ Slowly getting there
-
Going on
-
Is it a matter "feel' or is there some maths/science behind it?
-
How do you balance the tailshaft yourself?
-
Out with the old
-
This video (@ 2:25) has a R8 vs C63 AMG black series racing on an airstrip over 1300m. Unsurprisingly it gets destroyed
-
Saw LUXJ3T heading north on the m3, looked very sch-mick!
-
So against my better judgement, probably going to replace the GTX with a Precision 6466. Sounds to be a pretty wicked turbo. Will have it on the 6boost high mount with 60mm turbo smart waste gate
-
I was speaking to jamie about it. THe weak point I have now is the clutch in the t56, I think its rated at either 450-500kw so if I got a bigger turbo I'd need to spend x amount o either new gearbox setup or clutch which I'm not looking at doing at all. a t4 with a precision p67 would be great but not really looking to do that
-
Yeah I'm hoping I can get to 500 with the gtx but looking at maybe a 42 or precision to go with the t3 flange on the highmount
-
Yeah that's nxt on the cards. Engine is getting picked up tomorrow I'm gonna do a 6boost high mount setup while I'm putting the new heart in. Just hoping the clutch is upto the task :z
-
His is auto also, standard zf - apparently lights the rears when he accelerates from 4th-5th on ethanol lol
-
The engine should be in by the end of the month. If you're wondering about the cams, I believe Tony has a vidoe on his TBRE FB (november 8th post) of an engine he has done with his stage 1 cams.
-
Valve springs, gtx35, IC/airbox etc. still has factory rims and ride height haha. he took it to Power Play on the wknd. Runs a 400rwkw 98 tune for daily I can't this wknd, I'm working :/
-
Tony just built me an engine haha, I also have stage 1's in it
-
my brother has a fg turbo ute. Done a e854 tune last week on his gtx and is making an easy 450kw on 16psi :(
-
What sort of cam is Tony making up for you?
-
Come say hi nxt time man. When it's all up and running I'll take you and tango for a spin
-
All done :D hopefully have it in and running by the end of the month
-
Almost there Custom TBRE cp pistons, heat treat crank, spool rods and girdle. Full ARP head and main stud kits , Custom tbre porting, a set of tbre stg1 cams. PAC springs. etc.
-
Unsure on the cost of porting alone - probably near the 1k mark I'd imagine. same size valves etc. I'm getting cam put in as well, will be the same as Wayne Campbells if anyone has heard it on youtube.
-
The engine is almost done, just waiting on the head to be ported & polished really. Decided to get all new sensors for new one so I can sell my current f6 engine complete. talk about expensive!
-
have a look at TBRE on facebook, he has built bottoms for these already assembled
-
I wouldn't mind doing the engine bay with braided lines etc when the new motor goes in. Any recommendations on places to get the stuff?
