Talking

Hi all,
The bug has bitten me and i have handed my car over to RC Developments to get the WORX. At the moment it looks like ile be going for a complete rebuild, turbo, diffs, suspension etc etc.
The car is pretty std appart from LINK ecu, HKS SQV and a Fujitsubo exhaust system.
Clive @ RC has advised on certain parts BUT i want to hear your recommendations guys on pistons, rods, cranks, headers, manifolds, turbos, diffs, induction etc etc etc.
Come on guys, i want to build a monster to be proud of.

Cheers

Gez

for engine internals go to www.lateralperformance.co.uk and get on the phone to Mark there, he has quality gear at good prices, backed up with knowledge and experience.

He can also sort you out with the right turbo for the job, or adapt your existing one.

Have to agree to talking to Mark at Lateral. IMHO he will give you the best advice on what to do. When it comes to monster engine builds he HAS been there!

Oh nothing like what you've got planned, but if funds were permitting i wouldnt hesitate to do the same!
Reg plate is XXX and so far mods are: Leda B, Brembo 4 pots, 18" prodrive wheels, Decat scoobysport exhaust system, HKS mushroom, Knocklink and TT. Fitted to an STi 5 type R.
Next mod is a TEK 3 to keep things running cushdy.
Anyway good luck with it, and i will keep an eye out for updates.
