Would be hard taking them out with the crank. Just take the head off. Dont know if its the correct procedure but iv done it twice now on T2 engines. Inside outwards. Then the same when sticking it back on but do them all up to 20ft/lb first then on to 42ft/lb Cant remember what the rods are done up ...

Its already ridiculously long stroke, I wouldn't think you would want to hurt the redline any more. Even at 25 psi boost with the stock, very low CR of 7.6:1, I would be extremely surprised if you were being limited by detonation, rather than piston / rod strength, especially with the very high oct...

upload them to a image host.
Most will give you the links to post on the forum.

T2 love.

Thats quite spot on. For testing with D series SOHC, 1 degrees moves the power band around 1800rpms. So there wouldnt be much point retarding it since the head's dont flow well enough to make any power up there anyway. But advancing might make it a lot nicer to drive around town with more low torque.

Will need a custom dizzy. Need to ditch the CVCC (mate up a non-cvcc head and manifolds) The OBD0/1 Map/ECT/IAT/ICV/Speedo sensors. Along with the obvious wiring changes. For all the effort you could just drop in a D series which will make more power in stock + turbo form then a worked city turbo en...

1.6L is slightly taller which shouldn't be a problem with the T2 bonnets.
You can get cable to hydro conversion kits for EF and DA's, I imagine these will work on the city perfectly fine.

Buy a wreacked EG8. Can get them for around $600-$1000 quite often.

Few of the D series boxs come factory LSD, And aftermarket ones cost around $700-800 depending on strength of NZD. Iv been measuring everything up today and it should just fit with out having to modify the firewall if you get the intake manifold shortened and use a custom exhaust turbo manifold so y...

Iv got a spare block in my garage already if your after one.
This engine will most likely be going into a boat once its pulled out.
Would be good to replace the 100kg 90hp escort engine that it currently has it in.

I would be attempting to use the EG hubs so I can get the larger brakes as well which would make the cert a bit easier, but if I cant get them to work Iv got no problem getting some custom axels made up for apx $180 each from a mate.

Iv already got that book marked.

Id be mounting the engine back a bit more on a slight backwards lean because id have a much shorter intake manifold.
Also I wont have massive 4-1 exhaust headers lol.

Thanks for the reply tho.

Does any one have any links to info that would be relivent to swapping a D series such as a d15b in to a city T2? Im sick of killing turbos on the stock engine from over boosting them and I know that you can get 200-250HP out of a stock d15b with a turbo very easily. Id be swapping all the parts fro...

Looking for a cheap T2 ecu so I can continue my reverse engineering.
Some things stuffed out on my chipped one and now it gives you a small zap when you turn the key. I dont really want to have to use my stock spare T2 ecu since then if it happens again Ill be left with out a working ecu.

How would you check the fuel gauge wire signal with out the fuel gauge. My fuel gauge has stopped reading again and last time it was the sender unit. How can I check with a multi-meter if its still giving a signal so then I know if its the cluster/wire/sender thats broken. Its the yellow/white wire ...
