I Aint Scared!

I dont mind the lope either. I plan on using the 2.0 but i dont plan on reving it up to 9k. hopefully 7or so.

blue_crush

a price, location, and preferably pictures would be nice to add. Because you know that everyone who looks at this add is gunna ask the same thing.

blue_crush

my hp goal is 500 or so. its a 2.0 setup. im not concerned about drivablility, but i dont want it undrivable either.

blue_crush

I heard that the HKS cams are pretty much a straight install. If you go with a different brand, you should get a set of adjustable cam gears.
I have also heard of people making some good setups with the offset cams.
I guess i will go check out tuners for some more info

blue_crush

Which cams are more recomendable? hks 272 or Brain Crowers?
Pros and cons on both would be helpful. and wheres a good place to order them?

blue_crush

i thought the conquest had a rear sump. i could be wrong, prolly am.

blue_crush

is running the the stock pan on a 4g63 gunna work? as far as acceleration?
I made my own motor mounts, so i have the clearance.
Or do i need to make my own pan with a rear sump?

blue_crush

cage is done!

blue_crush

blue_crush

IPT just made one for a buddy of mine, for a little more than buschurs, but its a much better product.

blue_crush

the intake was alittle over 500 and the TB was 140. I talked to JMFab. directly and had it modified through them for the RWD. They can also shorten the runners if thats what you need to clear the brake booster.

Im going to pollish the intake myself. Also, i just got the rear section of my roll cage ...

blue_crush

got my intake today!

New throttle body has arrived!

blue_crush

I got the Tranny X member painted the rest of the way and bolted in place. I also got the mounting plates in for the cage, and tacked the main hoop in place

.

blue_crush

guess not. I ordered my JMF intake, bought a roll cage, and fabbed up my tranny crossmember. just an update. I will say that with the TH-400 you cant reuse the stock trans Xmember, because of the shape of the pan. However you can reuse it with some modification, if you are using the TH-350.
I will ...

blue_crush

i was gunna lean twords that. but i think i slid the motor far enough forward to clear the booster. their isnt alot to doin manual brakes is their? as far as setting them up. hows the pedal feel? do you have to pump them?

blue_crush

yeh he used the set up out of a 02 Cobra. or close to that year, i remember reading up on it. My old Buick T-type had hydroboost brakes. Might be worth lookin at.

http://hydratechbraking.com/products/universal/

Lots of good info on here. universal kits for 495.

blue_crush

how much for the q45 TB?

blue_crush

i have no daily plans for this car, and the point of me asking is so i can hopefully save some time and money and not buy the same part twice. I know i need to mach it well with my turbo, but I dont know what size is gunna get the job done. Im not affraid of going big, i just dont wana go too big ...

blue_crush

Im not sure on what size is the right size to go with for my app.
I was lookin at 35-38mm and it seemed nice, then i found alot of 46mm sizes. That seemed like overkill, but i really dont know.
I am looking to run mid to low 10s in the quarter, not sure on how much horsepower thats gunna require ...

blue_crush

I think that if you added Topics like Pictures. where people could go to see alot of pictures of peoples rides for reference of just to show would be cool.
Also maybe you could add a Meets and Gatherings Topic. I know starquest has one, but im on here more than their.
Maybe a suspension Topic that ...

blue_crush

cool, you got some pics of it?

blue_crush

I agree, if it does start to leak, weld it shut, or JB weld. not sure JB would hold up though.

blue_crush

im gunna have to pass.

blue_crush

Well I ended up scapping the old motor mounts that everyone else uses because of height issues on the cam gears and the angle of the trans, plus intake issues with the brake booster. So i fabbed up my own solid mounts. Works out great. heres pics.

blue_crush

I checked it out, their is alot of info on that site. thanks for the info. The only real problem i see is finding one close by, or cheap, or in good shape. As far as the swap it looks to be alot easier then what im doin now, so i will put this idea on the backburner for now. Unless.. :roll: i happen ...

blue_crush

why the 90 tranny? whats different about it compared to other years? and im not worried about torque steer and ruff rides. My nissans the same way.
How much for the 90 tranny DJ? 5sp. right?

blue_crush

I think i saw that RX-7 at the Shootout.

blue_crush

I Saw 2 at the DSM shootout last year, with the 4G6X and I thought that was bad ass! So Im looking for links or comments on the pros and cons, as far as the build is concerned. Like....
will the motor just drop right in?
with the stock DSM tranny 5sp. work (fit) in it?
will the stock axles spile up ...

blue_crush

I have a 95 240. and if you want to part ways with the motor let me know.

blue_crush

whats wrong with the KA-T thats in it?

blue_crush

thanx for the info. i think i found one.

blue_crush

that manifold looks good. nobody knows of any i can cut and flip?
or a good web site that i can get all the bends to make my own.

blue_crush

looking for a top mount, stainless steel header. Or a good suggestion on a bottom mount that i can cut the head mount flange off and flip, then reweld.

blue_crush

i never had a problem with them until i made the mistake of calling for some information. I got absolutly no help. kinda pissed me off

ohh yeh and the shipping time.........dont get me started.

blue_crush

They dont show it on their web site anymore. whats up with that? wonder if they stoped selling it? I was just on their the other day looking at the dates of this years DSM shootout and happened to notice that they dont offer anything for the conquest anymore.

blue_crush

will do.

blue_crush

i havent got to try mine out yet. Was the streetability on yours decent or was the converter slippin too much?

blue_crush

i used the one of the 2.6 mounts and then found another one. but as for the rubber portion on the mount, the mighty max was 3/8" taller then the quest mounts. thats the only difference i saw.
I am currently making a one piece solid mount that sits alittle lower then stock.

blue_crush

Anyone watch any of those? by Teckademics. Well the newest video assault isn't to bad. but i did get to see the cady that was at indy bash. and Matt Martin is also in their. Very nice stuff matt

. Makes me wanna turbo my KA or do the swap in my 95.

blue_crush

well i just bought new alternators for my 94 GMC Jimmy and for my 82 Chevy Malibu, cost for jimmy was 116, cost for malibu 42.
the mini alternator for chevys im not sure of, look up camaros, vettes, firebirds, and check summit.

blue_crush

nope, i remember asking you what mounts i should get, so i got the mm. if you read up farther, the mm is a half inch taller than the conquest. I guess its gunna be a hit or miss deal. I will keep trying and keep you guys posted.
Because i would rather not hack the tunnel.

blue_crush

the tranny is all the way in and bolted on, but in order for it to reach its final point of alignment with the rearend i will have to cut out alot of the tunnel. DJ does your motor sit level with the car or atleast close to it? even though it barely hits the hood?
I am thinking about removing the ...

blue_crush

I pulled my motor and tranny back out, to tie up some loose ends and i noticed before i pulled it out and after i put it back in, that it seated itself at an ocward angle. or for a better example the cam gears are gunna hit the hood! that shouldnt be like that.

On another note, the TH-400 tranny ...

blue_crush

this is true, thats why i was just curious. Im going with the front thermasat option.

blue_crush

Motor has found its new home.

heres some pics, will keep updates, making the cross member for the tranny now.

http://s47.photobucket.com/albums/f187/ ... h=imgAnch3

blue_crush

the hold up was apparently i misunderstood which mount off of the conquest i needed two of. also their is a height difference of a half inch, between the mighty max mounts (rubber) and the conquest.
I cut a different mount down and rewelded the angle to match the mount i needed.
ohh yeh and i got a ...

blue_crush

i got the motor in!! the day i posted the trouble i got it installed.

blue_crush

heres pics of the mounts.
