Well I got my quote from Hi-Tech for the rebuild they are looking at $5500, really annoys me considering I asked for a quote for them to assemble the engine for me, what I said was how much to get the engine rebuilt with the gze pistons that was all lol. What I am considering is getting a gze bottom end, a mate of mine is using a 7 rib gze block(ae92 isn't it). What I want to do is put my silvertop head onto the gze block and be done with it. I can't see that costing any more then a few grand even with a workshop doing the work? Any ideas?
P.S Shane I may have room in the rolla if ur interested
I am not exactly familiar with W2A intercoolers don't they require alot of other thigns like water pumps etc? I am going in to Hi-Tech after work today to hopefully get my quote, I went in on Friday and he said he will have it ready by today fingers crossed. How much you guys rekon it should cost me for
Rebuild ???
Turbo $1500
Manifold $1000
ECU/Tuning/Wiring $2500
I/C + Piping $1000
Misc. $2000
Labour = ELEVENTY BILLION DOLLARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111oneoneoneeleven!!!
P.S yo Adam/Ancullen(I think thats ur name???) lol you mind if I tag along havn't been to a Motorkhana and havn't been to hughes since forever lol, Shane you better come ur mr2 aint got nothing on the rolla :D
plans are to run around 15psi with a GT28RS, if need be I will get the bigger intercooler but I wouild prefer the small as I don't want to hack the front bar. Pfft sif I can't keep up with you :D
P.S Anyone going to the Motorkhana at hughes this weekend could be a good way to have a small meet and greet etc?????
You gonna be out Friday/Saturday night this week if so I WILL find you lol. Anyone know if the proposed intercooler will be sufficient? So funny on Saturday night some little girly in a 1.5L Lancer tried dragging me like 3-4 times of the lights, so I was like hrrm I bet I can scare her a little if I follow her so she started changing lanes all over the shop but I got bored lol. I have a set of 4x100 ginnies laying aroundthat I might have to dispose of this weekend but I don't know lol. But yeah anyways I will catch up with you Friday/Saturday and also someone tell me if the intercooler will be ok
cheers
yep thats what I want the good ol' disco potato :P I want one of these straight up but I am trying to lower my "How much to turbo the rolla" estimate lol, I should be gettin the disco potato straight up. Secondly, would say a Hybrid GT spec intercooler with dimensions 450x300x80 be sufficient, I don't want the "ZOMG U HAVE AN INTERCOOLER" look (intercooler hanging beneath the front bar or the front bar chopped to pieces) that is why I want the smaller intercooler but it should be able to handle it all right?
one more thing, i am planning on doing a 4agte build, rebuilding my 4age 20V ST with gze pistons etc, I am looking for a turbo T2, initially I would like a T28 preferably from a S15, anyone know of anyone up here willing to let go of one?
spotted shane pretty much hanging out of the window waving to me sat night in town, man I tried to find you so we could have a chat lol but I couldn't find ya
yeah same I'm up for anythin be nice to meet a few more rolla owners.
My plans for turboing the car are coming along nicely, found someone that can help me with the manifold woot. Now where can I get around $7,500 quickly :D
hey all, finally signed up for rollaclub, I will be in the heritage cruise with the rollaclub, already said I would on boost :D when is this rollaclub cruise?
