Vr4 are better,stronger internal can boost high and without the crankwalk defect that cant be eliminated

Vr4 also have wider engine bearings which made them more durable i suppose...

Btw anybody know how much power and torque can trinity stage 1 organic clutch can hold?? And did i need to do big big valve cover breather??

How come so cheap. Where did you order then from? What brand?

 

[peterj]

From my fren loh motorsport,he took frm semenanjung also ,brand is Eagle as usual

wah. That is some investment there.
Piston? Crank shaft? and other bits??

piston cp 85.5mm cost me 2.1k crank stock with acl bearings, no budget dy, if got extra already direct get the n1 racing 7k deal, custom wiseco 0.040" oversize piston and eagle rod and crank that make 2.3L

I seriously think peterj is a big towkay.....

finally after long waiting the block gone in machine shop to rebore and rehone according to the cp spec sheet is back after 1.5 weeks,even the machine guy say the rebore is bigger then the normal job they had done according to the spec sheet,so prepare for some clock clock sound while cold start

not a perfect job but i think is up to standard, not perfect cause they only use one piston to measure and rebore the block, not like semenanjung so pro using all 4 piston to measure and label later which piston is in which liner.. what to do, me here is little ulu as compare to semenanjung, but we are not live on tree ha...




so the phase 2 of the job,reinstall has begun , hope it can come to phase 3 soon, the running in:rolleyes:

peterj,
My place also ulu + pedalaman + less people.
You need to instruct the machine shop as per your requirement.
Then, you might get it correctly.

After all nice project. Good luck bro...

 

[vr2turbo]

Fuh! they expect the pistons to be perfect

 

[peterj]

I assume the diff is minimal for this kind of expensive and branded piston,just dont too much till eating my oil and smoke coming out from zorst then gud....but mostly ppl doing rebore here all using one piston only lmfao

the progress are really slow, since this is the first time i experience some sort of engine rebuilt with "standard".. previously crankshaft just torque directly with torque wrench and the old mechanic feels it with hands while turning, this time the bearings all fit according to the plastic gauge and studs are torque according to the mitsu 4g63 manual....

start with insert the big end bearings


torque the shiny crankshaft with plastic gauge inserted for bearing fittings,bit complicated process i not really remember since i not there every minutes, heard is torque step by step with small torque then higher torque , then loosen up then tighten again,then spin the crankshaft then open again to check the plastic gauge




opened up and checked clearance cun,all big end bearings share the same clearance (0.05mm) then install back with amsoil assembly lube, still can see the mark of plastic gauge on the 5th photo




lastly torque according to mitsu manual, 20nm +- 2 , then add a 90 degree torque ,seriously this is the 1st time i see ppl use this so called degree torque stuff, lol.. i am to ulu then, do engine all by hands


then there goes the works for today, since the mech wait his degree torque meter to arrive waited 2 hours

will not able to go see see these few days, hopefully when he install the conrod and piston he will remember i ask him to take pictures

i personally think felixia yeap is more sexy

btw the work is real slow, if previous time, the engine i think already in for run in.. lol... lower standard built btw..
