What are you going to do for SD?

 

It might be late and brains not working lol , but what do u mean by SD?

 

In for a fun build

 

ill just put this out there you will not be able to tune SD with a stock 3g ecu.

 

Stock gt or just stock 3g in general?

 

I know SD ment speed density. I'm asking how are you going to go about setting up your car for speed density when it hasn't been done on the v6 yet

 

Thats why i said "if possible"

 

It has, just not in a 3g

 

Montero ecu, pajero evo rom. Lots of wiring.

 

You'll never make enough power on a stock 75 to need SD.

 

Picked up my 6g75 today. Super clean. 79k miles. Will be doing a car fax on the vin and get the info. Happy day for sure.

 

Nice man. Progress is always great to have

 

Hell yeah Joe, not a bad motor that you picked up! Love seeing all these MIVEC swaps for this year ^_^

 

Got the motor stripped and unnecessary 6g75 parts off. Test fit the 74 parts before i get them painted. Almost ready for new parts to go on. The top front timeing cover doesn't fit. And the motor was missing that cover. So ill be getting one.

 

Another big step today. Got a wavetrac LSD!!!!

 

Nice deff the best upgrade for your drive train. I have one on both my cars and I gota say it's the best investment I've ever done

 

Yeah just ordering parts now. Got everything ordered for the lsd amd ordering a clutch this weekend.

 

Curious to what clutch are you going with? I currently have an action clutch 1ms with Fidanza flywheel and honestly it's been a great combo for daily. not too harsh and has alot of bite

 

Im going to go with a competition stage 2 or 3, on there web site its listed $450 for stage 2, $467 for stage 3. So if i can find it cheaper i will be looking.

 

You won't find a comp for much cheaper than that , but from what I hear they are worth every penny.

Tunersports has them for $339.84

 

What kind of dyno #s are you shooting for?

 

Nothing to big yet, the motor will be untouched, just some supporting mods. So anything close to 260whp will be fine with me. Once i move to va ill be lookking at more motor work.

 

What part of VA you moving to?

 

Norfolk/newport news

 

Just an update. Im collecting parts. And waiting for the day to swap. Still have to go with my 74 TB or maybe pick up an s90. Still need to mod the intake some. The value covers are going powder coated. Got the clutch ordered,thinking i might pick up a light flyweight. Got everything for the LSD swap.

 

Got them back today

 

Bad news....


Welp found out that the motor is bad

Bent values and broke guide

 

Hope you can get your money back. Nothing from the other motors cross over, the mivec 75 uses unique valves and guides currently only available through the dealer making it about as expensive to repair as a new motor. I know this because I repaired a set this winter and the only way to justify it was getting a good deal on a donor head and a hookup on the machinework.

 

Yeah i called them today before I actually knew for sure it was dead in water and told them, ill be calling tomorrow and demanding my money back, yeah i have a shop that can do the work. So lets hope its not a very costly thing. Just sucks, the motor looked sound but once i ran into the timing problem it was a work stoppage...guess the only good out come is i wanted to do the maintenance while the motor was out or it would have been a bigger problem later down the road. Ill be asking the 4g guys what internal upgrades they go woth if there are any. Take this time and get the motor work on some.

 

Kept the motor, going to the shop today, or well brandon and i i going to the shop to tear it apart, mike (the shop owner) found everything from his parts guy, looking at upgrading the pistons to wiseco.

 

Well on the right track. Got the heads tore all the way down along with the block, hot tanked it. And got it read for dallas to rebuild, port and polish.

Before and after cleaning of the heads

And the valves that where bent.

Cant wait. Most likely bumping the CR to 11:1 with the new pistons and set up. So now hope to see around 300.

 

Even with stock pistons/compression and the right configuration 300 WHP is very realistic on the MIVEC setup. Increasing the compression will certainly add to the power potential, but it will also place a higher demand on the rest of your setup to make even more efficient HP numbers. This thing will run nicely at the lower elevations as well :agreed:

 

After clean

 

Can't wait to see it after Dallas is done
