Craig's Project JDM FD3S UK Style

Prodigy · 07-15-2012, 02:07 AM

now take that huge air filter and make it so it can draw fresh cool air (from beside the intercooler) and your car will run even better/faster!!!!

Great job so far mate... excited to see the whole thing completed running well etc...

Hi sorry for the delay in updates

The RA 2 stroke is working very well, the old tank I made did around 400 miles before I had to top up this was around 500ml

I've now had to make a bigger tank as I have fitted a new upper and lower 13b-RE manifold, the new tank holds 1 ltr

As for her running she feels great at the moment I'm running 6psi at the moment, when I'm back from Italy next week I'm going to start doing some more boost logs and getting that boost up

Anyway here's what I've been doing most would of seen at rotor stock

Cold intake ( I hope to be mounting the pee turbo water kit in this pipe)

Brand new RW throttle body

13b-re lower and KG parts rail using the new Bosch 1680s

All on just still see the old omp tank

New tank on and shit loads of heat treatment products

Cheers

Craig

veryyyyyyyyyyy nice build mate!

What is the gold carbon fiber looking stuff? i know you said heat protective but more details? it looks super interesting...

More info can be found here

Also I've now sold on the T04R and ordered myself a BWS366 turbo on a 0.91a/r

I'm also looking at getting

725 Id injectors
And
2000 Id injectors

Or should I go

Id1000cc

And

Id2000cc

???

Update time

I've now sold my T04R and gone with the Borg Warner S300sx Aka the S366 , this was the turbo I was really after before I went single last year.

WOW she's a bigone lucky for me the turbo fitted my TGS manifold so I don't have to re-make that.

Here are a few test fit photos

It was clear I would have to move my Intercooler to the o/s a little and it would need to come closer to the front panel.

Well this made me move the rest of the wiring in the bay out and tucked so now there isn't a single body loom wire in the bay

And after

More to come

muibubbles · 12-17-2012, 04:21 AM

awesome! i have the same turbo (old version) and i love it. that thing singsssss. Its a great turbo. I only wish i got the 362 low end woulda been better for me...

RICE RACING · 12-17-2012, 05:34 AM

(click on one page, and just kept looking through all your posts on the build!) You have put in some work here! I take me pants off to you

Excellent fabrication and do everything style.

If ever you need a hand or want someone to bounce ideas off feel free to pm me.

Best Regards

Peter

p.s. sorry if I forgot you Craig? I get jizzillions of e-mails and contact form kuuunts all over the world and I see I recommend you find this site, I just can't remember talking to you over e-mail? maybe when I was on fduk? anyway.......... def keep in touch dude, you have some abilities! and its sick as fuck to see more kunnnnts like you building stuff like this.

Topgear · 12-20-2012, 05:50 AM

Cheers peter I've followed your build for a long time now and what you have done is amazing. My wife is moving out to Perth in jan to see it we can make a living out there. When I was there in jan the heat was crazy.

If you still have your link ecu in a few months I might get her to buy for me

Next on the list is a bigger intercooler, pre tubs water and lots of boost

One day I might get chance to come over an pay you a visit

Topgear · 12-20-2012, 05:53 AM

New cross bar for the Intercooler made tonight and cooler mounted

Cooler in place orange hose is just for mock up

I also managed to get the oil drain line made up and fitted and also the oil feed

One more of the tubs

Perth is a sweat box!

Keep in touch and keep up the great work!

Topgear · 12-20-2012, 04:27 PM

Quick first start up video

http://youtu.be/Uw4NHcRoATs

Still have a long list of things to do

Fit ID2000 injectors
Wire in the Power steering pump to a switch inside the car
Wrap downpipe
Finish intercooler setup or go for a bigger core just waiting on prices for a bigger core
Water/meth
Then mapping which this time I'm going to do all on my own eeeekk lol

There is prob loads more lol

Topgear · 12-31-2012, 10:16 AM

Ok update

Not much really has happened lol just loads of small bits like wiring

I have the exhaust system fully sorted so now she is a true 3.5" twin box system meaning I'm at a sub 90db at idle not tested higher up yet

True TGS Dolphin 4" tail

Here is a few arty photos

Topgear · 01-09-2013, 06:54 PM

Well I might have a little update

My ID2000 injectors came just after newyear I'm a happy chappy

The Cosmo lim and upper was removed as I wanted to re pant them black the red was just to much for me

While it was off I port matched the plenum block to the upper and RW throttle body and also have it all a good polish

This was on Instagram got a shit load of likes

And the best part is my MWI-Systems kits turned up

No real pics of the kit as its mostly installed as I couldn't wait but I can show you my tank

The tank will hold just over 3.5ltrs will also have level controll built into the tank

Here are a few from early this morning before work I will get better photos at weekend

My tank design mounts where the Aircon pump would normally sit , with long reach neck for easy fills

More to come
