forged pistons, uprated rods if going for big power, bigger injectors 740cc, uprated fuel regulator SX, parallel fuel mod, catch can, uprated clutch, better suspension, uprated brakes/pads and above

If he is just sticking with the std block for a road car, then parallel fuel mod, FPR and catch can are irrelevant. The rest depends on the turbo that will be going on it and the power/torque targets. |
i would like to hit 400 really, i bought it from a bloke at motorcity, hes got an evo on a 57 plate running 750bhp with a 2.3 stoker kit, seemed to know what he was talking about. he built it for a friend who wrote there scoob off before he had a chance to fit it. does the standard sti block come with ceramic topped pistons? as i am sure mine has.

Put up a picture of the block and pistons - I am sure people will be able to tll you what they are.
Std STi pistons are cast in the EJ25 block |
will do just got to get dressed first, i will get them on within the next hour or so.
|
looks like they are just cast pistons now i have taken a closer look

looking at doing the same mate:D just waiting on blocks coming from andy forest
my plans are for the same power but dont think my turbo will support that my spec.. vf22 turbo (got) need bigger 660cc injectors? fuel pres reg? 255 pump (got) colder plugs? metal h/gaskets? gates timing belt kit? r/c oil pump (got) r/c stud conversion dont know if needed? lage tmic or fmic? tubular headers (got) full 3" decat system (got) apexi power fc and remap uprated clutch kit brake upgrade! how dose this sound? :rolleyes: tommy |
|
there is a piece of rubber underneath
|
can anyone tell me whether the 2.0 oil pump fits the 2.5 block and if not where can i source a 2.5 one from, thanks in advance tony
|
same pump
|
would you recommend an uprated one or a standard one is there much difference in it if i am not running huge power.
|
Tony,
I don't recognise those pistons. They aren't the same as the normal EJ257 STi, they seem to have a very small dish volume, so they could be from a normally aspirated engine. I would suggest you check the engine a little more, before spending time, and money building it up. Mark. |
