AE92 Blacktop Conversion

[Mr Revhead]

ignoring arguments between ST & BT... surely the price of an ae101 ST ftw... pretty cheap these days.... especially if you are still at uni! ae101s ST's make ok runabouts but I guess at the sacrifice of power...

Plenty of good ones around still. This would be my preffered option

I put a silvertop in my ae92 and think it's well worth doing. It's alot
more fun to drive and fuel economy is better than the 4af. For my insurance I just rang and told them Id put a fuel injected
motor in of the same displacement and it didn't change my insurance
at all.

they say that until you claim!

All calls are recorded by the companies, and that recording should be as good as having written down on paper.

Yeah but you're talkingabout insurance companies...when it comes to paying out, if its not written in triplicate, signed by 8 JP's, a Dr and 3 imported shamen, then they'll weasel out of paying.

But they have the recording.... Not you. So I bet it "doesn't exsist" if the contents will be in your favour

My sister works for Ami so she makes sure everything is legit.

I'm planning a 6 month or so engine build as i'm at uni at the moment, don't have too much spare time, a GZE may be on the cards, however, sourcing a reasonable condition GZE motor maybe a little more trickier than a low km blacktop.

If your going to be rebuilding it then just rebuild your stock engine with gze pistons

I want to drive the car while I build an engine.

Dont waste your money on a silvertop, been there done that, didnt go any better than the stock bigport till i got it all re-wired with the blacktop ecu/map sensor etc.

I'm slowly building a fresh blacktop motor with minor mods (silvertop rods, port matching/smoothing etc) to go in there in place of the silvertop.

Bin the p/s and a/c while you have everything out, good way to shed some weight (and tone the arm muscles )

As much as I want it to be fast, I also want it to be comfortable
