To get everyone up to date on the rally car project:
I have received my EJ20t from a supplier in California, came pretty
complete. Intercooler, turbo (my choice of 3 different) and alot of other
bits. I have a shipment leaving today from New Zealand to Canada of the
remaining bits (Thanks Daniel!) computer, wiring harness, all sensors,
intercooloer radiator, intercooler pump, igniters, air flow meter, air box,
and all other associated hoses.
Remember, this is going into a left hand drive North American car.
Well, I removed the old sick engine, leaving the transmission in place.
Also the Radiator and all other hoses were removed. I dropped the new,
larger motor in place (quad cam is much bigger!). I had the transmission
jacked up a bit to allow clearance of the engine mounts and WOW, it bolted
right in!
My exhaust bolts right on to the 2.0t, engine mounts, transmission
everything lined up. I have to trim a bracket off the back of the
intercooler that held the overflow (will be re-located) to allow clearance
of the clutch cylinder but everything else so far fits.
So the parts arrive in a few days (Fed-Ex 2 day service, about $300 cdn)
and will let everyone know how the rest goes. I better not have anymore
problems cuz I have 2.5 weeks till my next race.
I am fortunate to be gaining this experience and lucky I can do it in my
garage my self.
