Read the post before yours. PQ passed away earlier this year, so don't think any of this stuff will be available

Hey guys/gals
Have been doing alot of reading into this and am a bit undecided on a startup method for my engine.
Most of the reading says you want to avoid idling on a new engine as this does nothing to bed the rings. All well and good. So needs load to bed them.
As the car isnt able to be driven ...

This is the one (or very similar) that i have used. Auction has measuremenst on it
http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/car-par ... 964338.htm

I used an aftermarket evo 4-6 bar and plate one, that just needed custom brackets welding on but fits nice between the frame rails.
Sorry dont have any better pics of the actual mounting

How much for one of these shipped to postcode 1026 in New Zealand, including the bushing for the pedal?
Thanks

Hey all
Im interested to see how others have made a gearbox crossmember/modified the starion one to mount the B2600 box into a staz.
If anyone has pics of what they did etc id appreciate if you'd post them up.
Cheers

Any chance of measurements for your pedal mount?

Right another crisis averted.
I pulled the clutch and FW off the motor this morning, then attached them together and slid them onto the input shaft. It went on to the same position it had when the FW and clutch was on the engine, but i could see the in put shaft was barely inside the spigot bearing ...

Hey all
Have struck a problem - cant manage to get the b2200 gearbox i bought off a mates twincam starion bolted up to my engine.
Have a starion block with vr4 crank in it, fidanza alloy flywheel and spec stage 3 clutch.
I can get the input shaft splines lined up with the clutch disc fine and the ...

Are you using a 1g fuel rail?

Here it is
http://www.ebay.com/itm/6-Fuel-Rail-ada ... 519c7511a6

Looks good but as with anything fuel related dont cut corners. You can buy mitsi specific adaptors that convert the fuel rail to 6an fitting.
Most hose shops should sell them. Il try and find a pic later, they aren't expensive iirc

Very true mate, couldn't remember his torque reading when i posted Thats bloody impressive mate!

Rad have you spoken to JAS about it? I know he's used the ute box but same principle i guess. His box seems to be holding up fine with nearly 400hp.

Man would buy this in a heartbeat if overseas shipping wasn't so bloody expensive!
Nice car glws man

Kane, box was out of an unknown year b2600 ute, thats why im wondering as some of the later ones had an unusable input shaft from what ive read.

Bill, the input shaft splines were hitting on the bearing itself, the part which was supposed to sit in the bearing was fine, but seems that either the FW ...

Well i trial fitted my b2600 box onto the engine without the clutch and FW on and had no problems, it all bolted up fine.
However once the clutch and FW were on, i kept ending up with around a 10mm gap between the bellhousing and the block.
I found out that it was the splined part of the input shaft ...

Hey guys
Just bought a new clutch slave cylinder for the b2600 box im using, but it didnt come with the rod which pushes the clutch fork.
Ive got a miata one which is similar, but too short.
Anyone know the length of the b2600 one i need so i can get the miata one extended, because i cant find a ...

man you dont want a r154 then. my cut off wheel and bfh are real good friends of my conquest :oops:

Haha cant afford a R154, they go for between $2-2500NZD over here 2nd hand! :shock: Thats $1500-$1800USD for u guys! Wasn't an option, but then again we'll see how the mazda box holds up - may have ...

Everyone I've seen with this swap has used the good ole BFH to make room or just left it off. Dunno what I'm gonna do yet.

Kane

Cheers mate, not really keen to take a hammer to the trans tunnel. JAS left his off and just put a bolt in there but im pretty sure you need reverse lights to be ...

Love your work Bill its stuff like this that keeps me motivated to think outside the square

No one has had this issue but me?

Hey guys
Just bolted my tranny in and have found that the reverse switch is pressed hard up against the transmission tunnel, rubbing the 2 wires badly and pressing the gear lever over to the drivers side (rhd car) by about just over an inch.
Has anyone else had this problem, and if so found a ...

Theres not really anything that "bolts up" to an evo block, that will handle any abuse whatsoever.
If you intend keeping the car it'd be well worth buying a custom bellhousing off Bill here, and running a R154 or if you don't have that budget, a w55 box or similar. Will handle alot more that the ...

Hey man. When you redid your CAS wiring, did you cut away the black plastic surrounding where the wiring goes in? im doing mine but struggling to figure out another way of getting to the terminals inside the CAS.

Kane they go for over $2000NZD here, but i guess are a lil less common

Ok so went thru the DSM loom today and identified most of the wires there.
Now just really need to find out what the wires are in the male Starion dash plug.
Heres the updated pic of the colours of the DSM plugs and what they are:

Legend thanks mate would appreciate that

Ok ive read the electrical topic and the how to splice the 2 together, only problem is my plugs are different :?
This is the plug from the dash:

I'd like to see more proof on this car, since first of all, it looks like that car is far from running. If that is supposed to be a running car, it would have to be a track only car, in which case running something such as methonal would result in no need for coolant, therefore no need for coolant ...

Anyone?

Hey guys
Looking for a b2600 bellhousing from 87-88 model that will bolt up to my 4g63 wideblock trans.
Anyone got one willing to sell pls let me know.
Cheers
