Ok, heres the deal. I bought the car April of last year.It was a "Complete" car with an SR swap simply bolted in. not running or wired, drive shaft wasnt even hooked up. I bought it for $4g's so i couldnt complain. When i got it to my house i took off the valve cover and i noticed a rocker arm lying in the head, so i was a little disapointed. At the time i didnt have a licence and didnt really know when i was getting them back, so i got bored and pulled the motor and decided to do a full rebuild. To my suprise i tore it apart and everything looked in tip top shape, and right about this time i got my licence back, i have no money to build a motor. Now about 9 months later its coming together.

-S13 redtop
Weisco pistons 86.5mm
Greddy valve springs
Greddy RAS
Nissan main, rod bearings and seals
Cometic 1mm head gasket
An attempt and port matching the head and polishing it
ARP head studs and rod bolts
Greddy o2 extension on order
Greddy downpipe
RSR GTII exh.
3" test pipe
Precision "750hp" intercooler
custom 2.5" piping by me
Greddy Type RS BOV
Mad Tiiite valve cover with custom carbon plug cover
ACT extreme pressure plate and street disk(plainly has Exedy stamped on the disk)
Heavy Throttle wiring harness

more to come when i remember, and more parts when income tax comes in

This is what it looked like when i bought it

Now the rebuild

Nice little kit I bought and wanted to try out

Drawer full of goodies

Nice work so far. How did the porting kit work out?

bleach8484 · 01-20-2005, 07:23 PM

I just messed around with it for about 30 minutes or so tonight. It worked good so far. I only actually "ported" the intake holes. Im a little scared to get in there and start cuttin on the inside. But the polishing will take time to get really perfect. But so far its totally noticable over stock

Awesome, it's nice to see someone who does thier own work. Nice Snap-On tool box.

Im gonna be running stock turbo and fuel for now, i just need to get it running so I dont have to drive that POS Stanza. Im gonna go ahead and throw a Walbro in the first. But when income tax comes back, i may buy the other 2 Volks i need to make a full set

Or buy some turbo parts.

Im gonna try to keep it at about 350-400hp. Kinda unsure on what componets i wanna go with. I dont want it to be laggy, whichever route i go its gonna be an Enthalpy colaboration
