SleeperZ Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Are there no women in Finland? Do you guys not work?! Or are you just stuck in the shop half the year? Seriously I've seen some great builds come out of the Nordic regions and this is yet another. Great work, a real inspiration. No doubt. I'm still trying to get Megasquirt going, for two years now. Kids, wife, work, home, never ends. Sorry, yes, nice build, love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeemuM Posted April 30, 2015 Author Share Posted April 30, 2015 Well its long and dark winter in here, so theres much time to spend in garage. Got car back to the road again. I dropped engine and transmission off, because it seemed almost impossible to remove transmission with engine in place, because it is placed so close to fire wall. Changed new gasket to transmission and put everything back together. And after small test drive there was no oil leak. So hopefully I can now book new dyno time and get this thing tuned.

TeemuM Posted May 12, 2015 Author Share Posted May 12, 2015 I took car to dyno today. 273hp, 334nm. That high compression + E85 really helps! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rturbo 930 Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 (edited) 273HP? That can't be right. I would think a stock M50 might make 173hp at the wheels, but nowhere near 273. The car is looking fantastic though - I didn't recognize it at first, but I think I remember seeing that one on CL around summer 2013 - you've done a great job with it. Kinda wish I'd bought it in hindsight, lol. Edited May 12, 2015 by rturbo 930 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeemuM Posted May 12, 2015 Author Share Posted May 12, 2015 That is converted engine power and this is not stock engine. Compression is 12.8:1 instead 10:1, cams, ported head, manifold, and MS3. And because I use E85 there could be used high spark advance without knocking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rturbo 930 Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Gotcha - didn't see any mention of mods so I assumed it was stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeemuM Posted September 6, 2015 Author Share Posted September 6, 2015 Found original front valance and replaced that MSA front spoiler. Like this look much better. Engine bay is quite a mess, so need to weld all those extra holes and get it painted again. Also need to hide those electric wires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeemuM Posted October 5, 2015 Author Share Posted October 5, 2015 Driving season is soon to be over so needed to figure some new project for winter. So I designed ITB´s for my car. Going to use ready made manifold, RB26 throttles, and rest of the parts needs to be manufactured. Also those RB26 ITB:s are too wide so they need to be modified. What air filters have you used with ITB´s? In that design I used largest oval K&N filter element. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V-Fib Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 That is a real nice rear differential forward-mount. You wouldn't happen to have any schematics or drawings for it that you would be willing to share? I'm working on an R200 short nose swap myself.

1969honda Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 (edited) TeemuM would you be willing to share who made your CV shaft adapters or a CAD drawing by chance? You're car looks really nice by the way! Edited October 8, 2015 by 1969honda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeemuM Posted October 8, 2015 Author Share Posted October 8, 2015 (edited) Im afraid I have only 3D model of that mount. I can email that if it helps? I remembered that some of those parts needed to be modified and I added extra support but those parts were good starting point. And I also needed to bend that right side sheet. And for that new companion flange I dont have drawing. They did it by themselves is machine shop. My first idea was to make it by using original companion flange and weld adapter to that. As that seems to be what most people are doing. But they said in machine shop that they can do me a whole new flange so I think that was better. Here is drawing of that welded adapter that I first was going to use. Idea was to make original flange round with lathe so it can easily be centered to that adapter before welding. That white part is original flange after lathe work. Hope those helps. Edited October 8, 2015 by TeemuM 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zetsaz Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 273 on a modern N/A L6? That's awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeemuM Posted October 8, 2015 Author Share Posted October 8, 2015 (edited) Well I think that dyno is quite optimistic because that torque is maybe too much from 2.8 litre engine. That´s almost 120nm/l, which is at Ferrari territory. However 1/4 mile final speed was 175kmh which is quite in line with hp and weight. I have already gathered parts for 3 litre 13:1CR engine so going to build that in next winter. Going to use aluminium block which is about 20kg lighter than that iron block.

1969honda Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 The drawing you posted is great, thank you. If you are willing to share your solid model of the diff that would be very helpful as well, my e-mail is jeremyw63d@gmail.com and I have solidworks 2014. Thanks again for the part data and sharing your build! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeemuM Posted October 9, 2015 Author Share Posted October 9, 2015 I send you .stp file and also found .dxf files that were used to cut those sheetmetals. Be aware that this mount puts differential quite high. I needed modify floor panels to make enough room for it. Also that beam that is behind diff needed to be modified. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1969honda Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 Thank you for the files and the details on mounting height. These should give me a great starting point when I get to the rear suspension and drive train of my build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeemuM Posted October 17, 2015 Author Share Posted October 17, 2015 (edited) Velocity stacks are done. Took quite a few practice runs, but finally managed to get 6 somehow good. https://instagram.com/p/8725GEDVDX/?taken-by=teemume Edited October 17, 2015 by TeemuM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeemuM Posted January 23, 2016 Author Share Posted January 23, 2016 (edited) My new engine is now assembled. It is stroked to 3.0 litres and compression is 10:1. Head is rebuild and slightly ported. I changed plans and decided to supercharge it because I found used Rotrex C38-71. That means I need to upgrade also clutch, fuel pump and injectors.
