Idaho Tuner's 240/|SR Build thread

[solow240]

Very nice build thread man! I am gonna be running almost the exact same set-up but on a built bottom end, and i will have alittle head work done, but anyways just wandering how the enpathy tuned ecu worked out for you?? Have you had any problems with the a/f ratio?? And does it run smooth???

[idahotuner]

the car runs great but the afr was off. because i picked up on zilvia that was suppose ably tuned for my set up and it ran great off of it. but now i am sending in fora retune. and will re dyno.

if i had a built bottem end i wouldnt do a gt2871 if i hada built bottem end. lol i would top mount twinscroll gt3071r

[solow240]

I probably will in the future, after i get it running, i really don't have enough money to go twinscroll with just building the complete motor...

[idahotuner]

yeah i understand that lol. i spent alot of money on my suspension and getting my car to be ablelto handle the power. so my next deal might be built bottem end and twin scroll.

[RCCC_DRiFteR]

next i will do maybe a stero finally and some other stuff

LMAO!!!!!!

[idahotuner]

i know funny. but its about time to get some tunes lol. and carpet. and possible some racing seats later to replace mine.

[urcaptnspeaking]

you should get the delete rear seat stuff to give it the look of a full interior and make your car a show and track car.

When you get your deck, please just make sure it plays either MP3 input or at least more importantly MP3 CD's. Best decision you'll ever make!! instaed havin like 18 CD's you can fit it all onto 1!!!!!!!!

[idahotuner]

lol i got a deck alll ready. the one i pulled out of it. lol.

so you guys want a little hint to my next build set up? once i am through with this one.

A cage tall enough that even if all 5 box shell turtles managed to climb on each others backs they still couldn't get out!?!? or does it involve your Bee R rev limiter??

[idahotuner]

[Kalypso]

[idahotuner]

That is just completely uncalled for and will destroy everything in the street!! Jeeze!! but the turtle cage would be really nice...I miss my turtle that escaped

[idahotuner]

lol yeha. i would be happt witha roll cage. but i am going to enjoy my car how it is for now. and just chill with it. doing some stuff this week for updates i think every one will enjoy.!

[RCCC_DRiFteR]

I know alil off topic, but I tihnk I'm starting to feel how you did a few months ago. I'm finally gettting everything organized and ready to drop my SR in. Yeah pretty much stock but I just ffel like tryin to get everything done asap and just chaos!!!! it feels great lol

[idahotuner]

nice that is awesome. i bought my car withthe swap done so i dodnt know much about the excitement of going form na to turbo except for the fact that i was use to driving my accord then i jumped in my 240 with the sr lol.

[RCCC_DRiFteR]

well that and my car has been sitting in my driveway for about 4-5 months now and its finally gonna be on the street again!! and I've had 4 ppl offer to buy my car as is and also a sheriif was talking to me about what I was doing with it. LoL oh you know that gay Volvo I posted like 10 posts up..... that's my DD!!! bought from a russian kid lol

[idahotuner]

never but a car fro ma russian lol. yeha i have had the sherif looking at my car a little to much lately. so i have had it parked for a while though. and i had one check out the vin number so i made sure the hood was down for that inspection lol.

[datsun2401972]

Wow, we have it good here in Oklahoma, no inspections! Unless a police officer feels like it needs one.

Basically you can drive anything you want as long as a cop won't stop you.

Why was he checkin your vin anyways?

[idahotuner]

only reason he checked was because i bought the car outta state other wise there wouldnt have been any inspection cause we have nothing else. no emissions or anything.

[RCCC_DRiFteR]

Speaking of VINs I throw away my old dash but I kept my VIN plate off the dash but the new dash I bought still has the old VIN and I'm tryin to figure out if I should take out the vin and put mine or just put like tape over that VIN and just always carry my VIN in the golve compartment?? But I heard that it's illegal and "unsafe" for a non certified person to swap dashes here in Cali. So you think I should go the extra mile Idaho and pop out the old VIN and insert mine??

[Kalypso]

Ben whats the advantage or getting betters springs

I am looking into slowly building my head

[RCCC_DRiFteR]

what exactly you mean by better!?!? isn't all come down to the stiffness and material its made out of that your paying for??

[Kalypso]

BC retainer kit

does it allow for a higher red line?

[RCCC_DRiFteR]

not so much technically that yeah because you have aftermarket springs that suddenly you can run your motor to 8K!! but basicly it does help that its aftermarket and forged and if its made of better quality than OEM its gonna be able to take more stress and where OEM standard valve would crap the aftermarket forged better quailty would stride!! thus is how you'd have a slightly higher redline but I'm not sure if you'd worry bout throwing a rod bearing on the bottom end side.
