I'm not sure. I'm running the Xcessive fuel rail, which has 14 mm injector bores. I'm using 14mm Treadstone adapters simply to extend the length of my injectors. The Xcessive fuel rail is made for 60mm long Bosch injectors, and my new ID1700x's are about 24mm too short. I also have an OBX fuel rail ...

I purchased my adapters from Treadstone: http://www.treadstoneperformance.com/vi ... +Extenders

I've also purchased o-rings and adapters from rallysportdirect.com.

I forgot to mention. The 5V output from the break-out-board is a voltage regulator. To use it, you have to send 12V to the board on the "12V in" pin. Without this 12V in, the 5V output simply won't work.

Use the 5V output from the break-out-board to power it. I'm running a 3 bar GM MAP sensor and that's what I did.

vicious!!! in a 20+ year old car having to shift with an H-Pattern keeping you boost, similar feature in a review I was just watching regarding the 370z.. its programmed to rev match your RPMs during downshift of course without having to manually rev match yourself.. is this also applying to your &...

Yes, exactly. Without it, my car loses boost between shifts, so there is a small delay before its back at full boost. With it activated, I only lose 6-7 psi during shifts. Several months ago, I raced a friend on here and our cars were very evenly matched (at that time). The big difference was that h...

I finally got flat-shift, aka no-lift-to-shift, aka full-throttle-shift,... working and it is FANTASTIC ! I'm using the cruise control's cancel switch (which normally disables cruise control as soon as you press the clutch pedal). It was already there and it was a switched ground, so all I had to do...

If you don't want to cut into the hood support or use head spacers, your only other option is to lower and/or tilt the engine. The KA already sits crooked, so I wouldn't try and tilt it any more. Xcessive makes lowering engine mounts that bring the motor down 3/4": https://xcessivemanufacturing...

This back and forth is all part of the building process. I'm human, I do dumb things....but most of the time I learn from them. I realize that there are some people that might not feel the same, but I work in my garage for therapy. It's definitely more art than science. Well said. I hope the V2 wor...

I just realized this was his car in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JogesuI56yw
I can't even tell you how many times I have watched that video.

Oh yeah, I do remember his build. Looks like he quit posting here back in 2012.

It's not the prettiest setup, but it's a cool concept that he says worked very well:

The on-board logging can be triggered via RPM, TPS, or Load. I have it set to kick on at 500 rpm, and stop at 0. So it pretty much records anytime the engine is running. There isn't much space though, so it fills up quick. I've only got it set this way because I've been trying to isolate this weird ...

Oh no. What type of wobbling are we talking about here?

Sorry, I was on Ambien and went on a little rant. But I so hate that flange!! After seeing how far away the pickup was from the pan on my setup, along with the piss-poor "baffling" and trap doors, I would never run that setup as-is. ESPECIALLY on a car that would see auto-cross or other tr...

Anyone know who this is? I don't recall seeing it before but it sure is nasty.

BTW, other than that, I love my Xcessive pan :D I actually really like most of my Xcessive products and their customer service is fantastic (when you can get ahold of them!). Rich agreed to fix a flaw in my intake manifold where a port was oversized. I had purchased the intake manifold 6 YEARS AGO. ...

.I haven't had the pan off in a little while, Does anyone know if the KA24de engines have that extra support bracket for the oil pickup tube? I'm thinking if they do, this would need to be modified as well to accommodate the added length from the spacer. I'm pretty sure none of them do, but I know ...

So is your redline always set at 8200 and you just shift earlier? I feel like I'd have trouble doing that with 700+ whp!

I've been chasing my tail with these new pressure sensors and I finally found my culprit today. The signal wire for my oil pressure sensor wasn't seated in the connector properly and had gotten pushed back. If that wasn't bad enough, the wire wasn't crimped correctly. I fixed that and now I'm gettin...

I'm glad to see you changed your focus from the Accusump to the oil pan. Mostly because I went through the same thought process you went through and arrived at the same conclusion! Have they mentioned anything about pan to pickup clearance? I used their suggestion from their website which was 3/8&qu...

I see what you are saying about the flange and overall design versus the others. Thats probably what makes it look thicker. I can't measure mine right now, but I will measure it when I get a chance.

Lol, we'll keep it to ourselves, I promise. It looks really good for being a stamp. Good enough that I wouldn't have guessed it was a stamp until you told me. I'm always interested in how things are made. I saw something online a while back where you can etch circuit boards at home with some chemica...

That is BASA55. I had no idea Canton made this. So jelly... EDIT: It looks pretty thick, which makes me wonder about ground clearance. I'm running the cast aluminum Isis Greddy-knockoff and it's currently the lowest thing on my car. Would you mind measuring the tall end of the sump? I'd like to comp...

It looks to me like it may be off. The only way I know to verify 100% is with a dial indicator and degree wheel. What about counting links on the lower chain between the dot on the lower sprocket (crank) and the one on the upper sprocket?

Yes, you can use a DOHC ECU on a SOHC motor. I think you have to move a few pins around on the main ECU connector.

Your first batch looks really good. Is the front piece with the text on it a big sticker that goes over that section? Or something else?

Yeah, that spools a whole lot quicker than mine. That should be a fun and torquey setup.

What kind of spool and numbers are we talking about here?

My next turbo will probably be a BW. They've got a great rep for making powerful, super-reliable turbos.

Your cam timing looks right, but it's hard to say 100% without seeing more of the lower chain. It might be a good idea to check cam timing again just to be sure. The reason I asked about the plugs, is that a 7 heat range plug will foul a lot quicker if not run hard than a 6 or even 5 heat range woul...

No doubt. One of the things that drew me to the KA, aside from it's power potential, was how plentiful spares were since everybody else considered them "throw away" motors and you could get them for next to nothing. Now I've finally got a decently powerful KA and the spare KA inventory has...
