Hi all,
It’s been a slow day as work as the email servers are down, so I thought I’d get on to the forums.
I've been thinking of having my engine rebuilt with forged internals over the next couple of months so am looking up reputable engine builders in Perth. Any suggestions, especially by anyone who’s had an MPS engine rebuilt, would be very welcome.
Many enjoyable hours have been spent reading this forum about member rebuilds, I don't always understand all the technical details but they're still great to read.
As for my car, in in terms of engine work, the following mods are currently installed.
- GTX3071R turbo
- 2XS ceramic coated exhaust manifold
- 3 inch exhaust with CP-E downpipe.
- HTP 3” intake into a modified Corksport cold air box
- Cobb 3 port boost solenoid
- 3 Bar MAP sensor
- ITV22 spark plugs
- Autotech HPFP internals
- Turbosmart BPV
- Coolingmist Water-Meth injection kit
- Street Unit TMIC + SU boost tubes (FMIC on the way)
- JBR oil catch can
- Accessport V3 (Tuning by Ray D)
I’ve gone a bit overboard with the Black Friday sales, this is the list of stuff I have on the way :
- Treadstone TR1035 Intercooler core
- JMF V1 Intake Manifold
- ACT 6 puck clutch with light flywheel
- CPE Stage 3 pistons (90mm overbore, 10.5 : 1 compression)
- K1 forged rods
- CPE injector seals
- JBR BS delete and oil pan baffle kit
- DCR VVT Actuator
- SP63 L19 Head studs
- ARP Main studs
- ARP Cam bolts
- ARP Crank bolt
- ARP Flywheel bolts
There are still bearings and washers and gaskets that have to be bought but what exactly to get i'm not too sure so I figure that I might wait till the rebuild place can provide some advice about what else to get.
But is the EdgeAutosport motor build kit be worth getting? Stage 3 MZR Motor Build Kit MS3/MS6 2006-2013
Is there anything else that is likely to be required?
I'm aiming for a RELIABLE 400hp at the wheels, so if there are any other suggestions or ideas, I would be happy to hear them... Thanks guys!
