    We've looked at the numbers but there is still a bit of trial and error involved

    Got mine through a few weeks ago too. We gonna park next to each other?
  10. Decided to make a new thread to gauge some interest for these specialist parts separately. All parts are BRAND NEW in their boxes. I've literally broken the seal on the boxes tonight in order to get pictures for this advert. Capacity Upgrade Kit developed by taking advantage of knowledge and experience acquired through D1 drift and time attack at Tsukuba Circuit. This kit was designed exclusively for the FA20 engine by meticulous analysis and experiment. HKS delivers this kit with “Made in Japan” quality. High performance specifications withstanding 550(ps)-50(kgfm)! Piston Kit: • Carefully selected specially forged raw materials used • A choice of gasket thickness enables both NA and turbo-charged engine users to use this kit. (Gaskets available seperately) • In order to cope with the demands of high outputs, strength analysis and tests have allowed optimisation of compression ratio for flexibility of setup and high boost use. • Piston crown had 3D design in consideration of stock direct injection system. • Stock pistons skirts overhang from the block during bottom of travel. Short height pistons have revised potential issues in this area.• Friction, weight and other design properties to suit the needs of short height pistons. • Stock Bore Compatible 86.0mm • In order to maintain the engine block strength, the stock bore size is maintained meaning there is no need for cylinder liners • Reduces the cost of installation as liners, bore & hone and block facing processes are unnecessary. Connecting Rods: • Specific connecting rods have been designed to suit the longer stroke. • With no engine modifications, a special size crank pin has been set requiring new bearings. • Note: The con rod bearings are sized to use Nissan RB26 & SR and must be purchased separately. • High strength I beam design and revised connecting rod bolt size. Crankshaft • Stroke 90.0mm • Made from HKS special forged material • Perfect pin journal size was selected by merticulous analysis and experiment for extended stroke. • Carefully designed weights balance the engine for maximum efficiency. RRP brand new is now £2,760 since HKS's recent price drop. I am asking just £2,000 delivered for brand new parts

  15. Speedo is done from ABS sensor Gearbox has 2 connections on it. 1 for reverse switch and I assume the 2nd is for the gear change indicator on the dash?

    Beefy new driveshafts/rear axles (whatever you want to call them) have arrived. Capable of handling 600bhp so should do the job nicely

    2JZ is a lot of money for the engine and a 6 speed box, and that's if you can even find the 6 speed box! It's a heavy lump too as the block is made from iron. The 1UZ is pretty much the same weight as the FA20 with it being aluminium 2JZ is what all the dragsters do for epic power, but I'm just not a fan for a weekend/track car

    Meh, got the v3's at a good price so I'm happy
  23. smudge

    Smudge's supercharged V8 build

    Exactly. When you weigh up cost, reliability, tunability etc...the 1UZ is the obvious choice for me
