Ikrana's APR widebody goes K-Swap

[Ikrana]

Ok so here is a small update for my build, I have done quite alot to the car latly but nothing
so big so it is of interest of taking pics of it, but here are some new parts that I am going to use fpr the new setup.

First a Oddessey PC680 battery weight only 7kg  s:) s:)

the a Oilfilter relocater (the filter is to close to the manifold )
and a new oilfilter holder with 4 -AN 10 fittings for engine and oilcooler and the 1 port for oilpress and oiltemp.



Bigger update on the engine as soon as possible  s:D s:D

I was about to ask how on earth the oil filter was close to the manifold ... and then I remembered we're talking about a K20 not 1ZZ. Apparently work has broken my brain  s:lol: :lol: s:lol:

for the ones who wonder, the manifold is fullstainless and TIG welded  s:) s:)

It's a work of art  s:) s:)  Don't suppose you could knock up a nice set of TIG'd equal length headers for a V8?  s;) s;)   s:lol: :lol: s:lol:

[Ikrana]

Haha yup is a K20  s:P s:P  
the manifold is about 3 to 4 cm away from the filter and I don't want it to heat up the oil.
and also by chaging its location it will be easy to changs etc, and also it looks nice  s:D s:D

as far as building another manifold, I think I have to much work with my car for the moment if I want to get it ready for the summer,

Ok so I don't have anything speciall to show as for now but I want to share one more engne pic that I took some days ago, new on this picture is the aftermarket Fuelrail and then made a new right side engine mount! this is not done yet as it needs some sanding and a polish , but the most important thing is that this is far more stable and strong the the first one  s:D s:D

Looks very nice! Who manufactures that back box for your custom exhaust? I have been looking for one similar to that for a custom exhaust I am collecting parts for.

Hi, the Exhaust damper is from Vibrant.

[scottish_turbo]

Thank you.

[Ikrana]

Long time since last update, the last summer was great and this winter I have spent alot of time in the garage changing alot of stuff.
the engine is getting supercharged with a mpx90 charger, did strip the interior and weald in a 6p cage.
here is a pic of the new easy access to the engine interior.

[chris3boro]

What a project. Pics pics pics

[nialllol]

Any more updates?

[Ikrana]

Here you have some of the pics taken this winter, i did start the car 2 days ago, and the things left is complete the new exhaust and refitt the bumpers, i have some pics so will upload them,

Almost forgot about this tread as there is so few comments :/

[scottish_turbo]

This car just gets better and better. The quality of craftmanship looks second to none. You must be very proud of how far you have taken this car.

[nialllol]

Holy crap that is eeeeepic :p. Was the a lot of messing about to fit thw super charger and new engine? Or was it a case of weld in the Honda engine mounts and crack on with it?

[Ikrana]

Well the sc was easy to fit on the engine,
the hardest part was rebuilding a new firewall and make it fit just right, also when i rebuild the firewall i also took the chance to make a easy access port from inside the  scock cock scock pit, so now i can work on the frontside of the engine from inside the car  s:) s:)

[nialllol]

Aahhhh very nice silly question but how did you go about making a new firewall?

[nocoolname]

What material did you use to make the new interior door panels and how are they attached?

[Ikrana]

Aahhhh very nice silly question but how did you go about making a new firewall?

the firewall was just messured and the cut, i after that i had to test fit the engine and supercharger so everything would clear, the i just teameplated the new parts and wealded it all up.

[Ikrana]

What material did you use to make the new interior door panels and how are they attached?

the doorcard are made of 1mm thick aluminum, then wraped in carbon, i might redo them in real carbon after the season.
they are bolted to the door. i will take a better picture of it for you.

[Ikrana]

this will be the rearbrake setup after the season, willwood discs for the rear 290x22 and 4 pot cutrom calipers with integrated handbrake.
custom bells and mounting has to be fabricated.



this is how the car looks now with, bad pic i know, new color on the wheels  s:P s:P





Building a new custom 3" exhaust  s:) s:)



and a quick look at the interior.  carpet has been removed along with a pillars roof trim. ac,heater. ( will install a small racecar heater) wires etc etc.

[nialllol]

The things I would do to own this car would be illegal lol

[shnazzle]

Just caught wind of this thread...wow.
I'm impressed! Hard to imagine the little 2 can handle this much violent and brute power
