Aero uses Rory @ Speed Torque to do machining etc..

i'm sure u would agree ash, a good machinist is critical. that's 50% of the build, right there. they have to get your bores, mains (align hone), cylinder heads, rotating assembly etc spot on. also, with alloy blocks it's difficult as they fluctuate so much with temperature.

one of the best pieces of advice ever!
great post.

having the parts / components arrive back , correctly clearanced , machined etc. If you cannot do it your self, you need a good machinist guy / company in your corner..

 

[BLOWN EA]

the guy i am getting to build my engine was the machanic that put the yellow celica together in perth a few years ago.

he has been doing all the tuning on the car at the moment

the machining we ar going to use Rory @ Speed Torque in perth

saw some pics from motorvation over the weekend, want you that lost a wheel was it??

 

[BLOWN EA]

HEY yeh it was sheared all the wheel stud bolts on the right hand side of the car what a weekend of burnouts and lunches of the trans break was epic

 

[BLOWN EA]

hey guys been a while the car has had the turbos rebuild and a few other bits done to it got id 2000cc injectors in it now. also we will be stepping up to E 85 fuel and new tune 10.5 slicks and then we will hit the track to see what we get out off it.
the new engine is going to get machined next week and to get assembled with the good bits.
