Hey primers,
In case you have not heard the word, my ctsc motor blew up. It still has not yet been diagnosed yet but I am planning for the worst. Motor out, forced induction bottom end build, more boost, etc. I have compiled a check list of things to replace when the motor gets pulled out. I have already replaced several maintenance type parts at the time the supercharger was installed exactly two years prior to today. Please add to the list or quote what I should add to the build. Plus, it needs to happen soon before I change my mind and buy an ugly GT-R. :biggrin: Please see the list below. I am open to all recommendations please.
Thank you, AJ
Parts which are on the list:
1) Low compression pistons.
2) Arp head studs.
3) Cometic head gaskets.
4) New timing belt and water pump.
5) Ti Dave's harmonic balancer plate- bought already, collecting dust.
6) New oil pan gasket and welded oil pan baffle.
7) New fuel pump.
8) New injectors.
9) New exhaust manifold gaskets and studs.
10) New clutch/exedy twin organic with throw out bearings.
11) DA intercooler with heat exchanger.
12) New lost motion assemblies.
13) Upgraded rear beam bushings.
14) Aem fic. May go full stand alone but it is very hard to do in the Bay Area due to smoggyness.Please don't turn this into a engine management thread....
15) Ten psi ctsc pulley.
Things already done/replaced at ctsc install two years ago:
1) New valve cover gaskets and valve adjustment.
