Well this is not exactly a for sale post so that is why i post it here since it has to do with FI and NA.

Someone posted a while ago about a Bottom end kit for Forced induction that was selling on ebay and im just wondering if you guys might be interested in getting something like that. I am planning on putting a kit together for Boost and NA and was just wondering if you guys are interested. This would be a more complete kit rather than just getting your Vitara pistons through me.

The kit will come with:

boosted applications:
Vitara pistons(with wrist pins and clips)
Hastings or NPR rings
Metal Head Gasket
Main Bearings(Crank bearings)--->KING Bearings
Rod Bearings--> KING Bearings

For NA Applications:
P29(dome) or PM6 Pistons( Nipon pistons)
Hastings or NPR rings
Metal Head Gasket
Main Bearings
Rod Bearings

Moderators if its not in the right place go ahead and move it.. I will make a Sale post in the right section IF there is a good feedback/interest on all this stuff. For now i just want to see if members want it or not.

You should add a set of TT rods to the boost kit.

Got Vtec?

Yeah i guess i can work something out for those who already have the pistons.

I almost have a price

Well i have a price..

Everything (Pistons[Vitaras or PM6 or P29],rings,wrist pins, Head gasket, Main bearings, rod bearings) will be $240. That includes Shipping and handling and Paypal fee.This price is to the USA only(Hawaii and P.R included).

The only problem i see is that the rod bearings are not listed for the Z6 engine(92-95 civic). I dunno if the 96-00 or 88-91 bearings will fit the Z6.

For the ones that already bought pistons and just need the HG, rod bearings and main bearings i will have a price later.

When using the Suzuki pistons, do you have to modify anything for them to fit?? or will they go in with ease...

Depends on what rods you use..

D series rods + vitaras = Modification

TT rods + Vitaras = small modification (ask Tunner Toys about it)

Eagle rods + vitaras = Plug and play, perfect fit, no modification

I may be interested if you could include the TT rods with it.

fjt
08-01-2006, 01:29 PM
I hardly doubt i can include the TT rods.. I am not a business and i would have to buy the rods in quantities to get a good deal + i'd have to go through the process of getting a re sellers permit (you have to pay for that)just to be able to purchase the rods from the manufacturer.

There are good places out there that sells the rods for a good deal..

You could have a great bottom end for 500 bucks or less

what will these vitara pistons do in a d16a9, i mean what compression numbers should i be looking at?
The d16a9 has a combustion chamber of 42 cc's, stock compression is 9.5:1.

well i need to see then how many are interested...so that i can go ahead and post it in the classified section. Maybe we can do a group buy.

For the ones that already have the Pistons and rings:
Metal HG, Rod Bearings, Main bearings--->$125 shipped and includes paypal fee.

Never mind, figured it out allready.
It would set it down to abot 8.1:1.
What kind of boost could i run with this compression using ron 95?
And when using ron 98 when i feel like flying?

hectorcuper
08-02-2006, 05:50 AM
FJT, i'm from the netherlands and i have no paypal account because i have no creditcard.
Would there be some other kind of method to be able to pay you (if i decide on buying this kit) ?

On 93 pump gas you can run like 20 PSIs w/o problems

I ran 18PSI daily on 8.5:1 CR with no signs of detonations.


FJT, i'm from the netherlands and i have no paypal account because i have no creditcard.

Sure..you can send me a Money Order(postal MO prefered) or a Western Union transfer or check.

Nevermind, i allready setup a paypal account, and i thought i needed a creditcard :P

oke, next question.
The kit you sell comes with a headgasket right, but i have a zc, that gasket ain't gonna fit (i think).
So i'm gonna need to buy one myself.
What other parts in this kit won't fit the zc?

fjt
08-02-2006, 06:35 AM
is it a DOHC ZC or a Sohc ZC

hectorcuper
08-02-2006, 07:11 AM
It's a euro d16a9 dohc.

fjt
08-02-2006, 07:52 AM
Then it should be the same as a d16a6

hectorcuper
08-02-2006, 07:57 AM
:) i think you can count me in for a kit then (not 100% sure yet though, more like 89% )

SOHC

Won't fit... :mad:

Hector if youre in i will need your address so i can recalculate shipping..since youre not in the USA the price goes up due to shipping.


have you set a date yet for the payment

Well this would be special ordered, so i will have to pre order everything. Im thinking of giving a 2 week period for everyone interested to sign up, then get everyone's payment and order the stuff and then ship it out.

that way i wont have to be doing 2-3 trips a week for parts.

fjt
08-02-2006, 08:15 AM
DOHC

SOHC

Won't fit... :mad:
hmm i missed that... I didnt knew there were DOHC d16 (xcept for the Dohc ZC but that is labeled as ZC and not d16)

In that case Hector i can just take the Head gasket out of the kit and just re calculate the price..It would be cheaper..That way you can get your own Head gasket.

hectorcuper
08-02-2006, 08:24 AM
Yeah i think i'm in.

So it would be a kit without headgasket send out to this address:
Grindweg 98 (adress)
8485 JD (zip code)
Munnekeburen (city)
Friesland (state)
The netherlands.

08-02-2006, 08:27 AM
well i will do a post on the classified section later this afternoon with all the details for the ppl to sign up.

fjt

Hector i got good news.. The Head gasket will fit.. I have a friend with a DOHC ZC turbo and he uses the CRX d16a6 HG.


What do you guys think if i also add a Timing Belt to the kit for a lil bit more?

hectorcuper
08-02-2006, 10:20 AM
only if you also deliver the kit without one, or with a dohc one.

Soulless
08-03-2006, 01:27 AM
I like the kit as is. Depends on how much the belt adds!

fjt
08-03-2006, 04:54 AM
it will be $15 more with the belt.

Man, seems like a good deal, but I don't have the money/time/whatever else at the moment.

Any chance you'll be doing another group buy in a month or two?
