The New Guy From NewZealand

[delcowizzid]

its reground on a stock roller cam so that would of dictated its split ide say.its custom ground (as much as he can on a stock cam) to suit the setup from the pipe size and length of the headers all the way down to our available diff ratios and while keeping rpm band down in the revs while we run a stock N/A bottomend thats done 300000km LOL. it sims up pretty good max power at 6000-6500 with better head flow numbers punched in the sim it goes further in the revs 7500 or more no way the stock block will go there for long LOL. we could of just used the same cam as in the green car but it seems pretty tame and we need it to sound the part

Well that makes sense. The fact that you're planning on reving it that high means it should have a pretty good amount of power compared to stock.

picks of gts getting its new brakes and the new link pins and bushes

more work on the starlet today fitted up a modified sump thats all ready to go bar the buldge on the base to hold oil.scored a proper TCI trans blanket this week (thanks GUY) it fits great saves making a scattersheild

[delcowizzid]

Glad to see you back and updating the thread. What's the conversion from Nm to Ft/lbs though?

[delcowizzid]

[delcowizzid]

update time and its pretty big and full of awesome win

so the starlet goes to get its cage this week so we had to get it ready 1 night and 2 guys with a 1mm cutoff wheel later and its ready for its cage and 4 link rearend to be fitted

i didnt get the before shots but here it is on our first workbench after picking it up and cutting out the rear while we could get under it

now offloaded onto the shed floor with shortened BW diff in place.some new 10" wheels and used ET STREETS that ive borrowed for mock up on also more inner gaurds removed

rims and tyres for level blocks LOL

 

[delcowizzid]

front on the ground body leveled engine and trans is in allready

28" needed some more space out with the trusty 1 mill again

my mate whos shed its in is a chev nutter and had to mock up the 8 trumpet meth setup just so we could see what it would look like with a chev in it

all in all a good couple of days work

 

[charlief1]

That things gonna fly. Looks like the American chevette from the side though. Is it a holden or import?

 

[delcowizzid]

toyota starlet jap import.came out the factory weighing under 1000kg its much lighter now LOL

 

[charlief1]

[delcowizzid]

[delcowizzid]

some 4link mounts still undecided if ill use these ones or not i have a 2nd set being cut that are a bit different

 

[delcowizzid]

no real updates on the starlet its still away getting its cage fitted.so while its been away we finished another cars intake manifold and today tried to dial in the cam.i say tried as the cam card doesnt match the cam turns out what was meant to be another 222@0.050 cam is actually wait for it a bloody huge 284/290 @ 0.050 sims up at good for 650-700Hp seat to seat is 310/310 degrees. finished inlet manifold pic below

[charlief1]

Looking good so far. Have you decided on the spring height yet?

 

[delcowizzid]

its all been built with both front and rear lower arm bolt holes at 180mm off the ground.ive got coil overs for front and rear with unknown spring rates were to suit honda off ebay and only 100 dollars NZ.i can get pairs of springs at any spring rate needed for 120 a pair so once its all mounted up ill be able to test out what i have now and see if i need softer.at the moment i can lift the backend off the ground with the 2 rear cage bars shes light

 

[delcowizzid]

more parts RCA adjusters for the lower arms to straighten the stearing arm geometry to avoid bumpsteer
