STock 4cyl mod's

[Kapp00]

Hey all,
OK, first off i'm not realling thinking of doing a swap as i don't really care about the power any longer just want the appearence. First off i'm going to be rebuilding my engine adding some new parts to it. WOndering what kind of pistons might be or could be used, or if any of you have modified your fuel rails and or ported your headers and ****..?
any help would be great thanked.
just adding more air, little things to push a few more hp out of the engine then add a turbo to the stock 4cyl. but thanks
later

if your pay to get a rebuild just get a bp in
it;s a huge diff and be about the same price

[Kapp00]

same price as what though, much harder to find those engine and what kinda of HP do they have?
bp... ?such as a b6t?

[Marlon]

u can get a j-spec bp for 500 - 1200 and it comes with 130 hp
it will drop right in with your stock tranny u just need an ecu(75) and a harness (150)<p>i'll be selling my ecu and harness in a couple months when i get my haltech

[torpedan]

or you can get one from a local junkyard for half theprice... Only real diffrence is milage and if you get a tranny i belive the jspec has lsd.<p>i got a front end clip from a protege lx for 7550 usd.

[Kapp00]

where the hell you guys talking Jspec? isn't it
A-Spec in Toronto? or is Jspec iknow is a japanese importer but is it a store as well?

[mx3TT]

Torpedan, you want to sell your tranny to me? If its 5 speed of course. Hit me on AIM, mx3TT is the name.

[mx3TT]

J-Spec means japanese spec meaning parts that came from Japan.

if you get a engine from a junkyard around here it's gonna have 180km and cost like 1000
(for what i've seen and i searched alot)

[Kapp00]

i know what jspec is, but is there a japanese auto store in toronto somewhere?
i know of a-spec but i heard there was a jspec store somewhere?
anyone know?

[ltjrunner]

dosome checks online.......a j-spec bp is up on ebay currently for 700 i think<p>or go to your mechanic and ask them to get you a used motor under lets say 40,000 miles...should be able to get you one or just ask him for a price of one and you got a good estimate. oh and the lsd can be obtaind i know from corksport so not much of a bother there. other than that arent the engines realativly similar?<p>oh and about j-spec being better not always the case!! doesnt japan have a hp limit?

[dewthis]

They have a "reportable" hp limit, the Skyline R34 is only suposed to have 290 hp but it is well over 300hp.

i got my engine from here
http://www.japanautoparts.com/
but i really hate them
they wanted my stock engine when it only had 130,000 km on it so they could rebuild it
i told them to fuc off and i was keeping it
