why is the crank on the right better?

Right side crank is a Trust billet one, left side is HKS cast one.

Wow, I gotta ask. What does a beauty of a billet crank like the one above run a guy...

so sexy for a part that will never see the light of day (hopefully) after installation.

Rain · 6th January 2008, 02:05 PM

mmmm i THINK around 2000GBP, just for the crank, but im not 100% sure might be more might be less, but i dont look too much in to the $$ its worth more in to what i gain from it, in the case, a happier engine

Head porting is done

Time to move on!

EndlessR · 7th January 2008, 03:36 AM

Rain · 7th January 2008, 04:43 AM

Rain · 8th January 2008, 06:02 AM

Rain · 8th January 2008, 06:31 AM

These guys work so fast, they are keeping ME on my toes.

Pez301 · 8th January 2008, 01:14 PM

i have a second morning wood looking at this oil pan

Rain · 8th January 2008, 03:37 PM

haha too much info!

Well thanks for the kind words it keep me thinking of new ideas for this car, needless to say, the fun has only just started! wait till you guys see this car put together!

Stage 1 will be Fantastic, Stage 2...will be icing, lots and lots of icing, on this very very yummy cake!

r33 v-spec · 8th January 2008, 09:57 PM

Yep they sure are working v. fast!

I will keeping a keen eye on this thread

Build-up so far is awesome!

Beer Baron · 9th January 2008, 03:57 AM

sump extension looks nice.

good work.

Rain · 10th January 2008, 11:34 PM

Got some new pics, some parts came in for the begining of the engine build

Test fit of the Trust crank, we are waiting on a few little bits before we start (isnt that always the way)

Trust/Greddy bits that will have a new home.

Nice new Fuel Rail, the blue SHOULD go nicely with the end result of the engine-bay

So Got the head back from skimming it to make sure it 100% flat and ready to go, then Sugino san (boss man) went ahead and made some finishing touches. i cant wait to see this head totally finished!

While that was being done, the bearing sets etc came in for the bottom end, which got finished also!

HKS Step 2 Pistons and Rods, coupled to a Trust billet crank (mix and match

) its pretty overkill for the target HP but, eh, why not.

Engine will be done hopefully latest by Monday.

Going to be great!
