My new Pineapple rebuild pics
 

I just got this in the mail today! Here are some pics; not too exiting- but maybe someone is interested?

It is a Pineapple Racing 5 year spec rebuild (cryo treated bearings, more new parts, etc) w/ 89+ TII housings, 87-88 TII rotors, stage 2 street port, 3mm seals, and stage 3 oiling mods

I think it looks fine how it is, but want to protect it from corrosion and lower the surface porosity so it is easier to keep clean. This has led me to consider spraying it w/ the VHT 1500 deg clear coat that Summit sells as I can paint over both Alum. and iron parts and it should look OK. Anyone have experience w/ this product?

OK, some pics...

looks good.. let us know how it runs! :)

Of course you guys will get a full review of how it runs! But, I am slow so you will have to wait a while...

Another pic, passenger side

And this proves its Rob's work and I bought it :-)

Shot of an end housing port- can't actually see much, of course...

Intermediate housing ports...

-edit- oooh, that is a crummy pic! I guess I zoomed too much and even auto focus couldn't save me. Sorry :-(

Nice engine!!! Hey it looks like mine!!! Congrats.

Hey! I'm planning on going with Pineapple when I get a rebuild for my TII. Looks beautiful and you can't beat that 5 year warranty!

If you don't mind me asking, how much did that cost you? I'm looking for something quite similar to that but with the stock 89-91 rotors for better revability (I don't plan on going insane on the boost). I suppose I could just call Rob up and ask him... :D

Mine was 2495 + 306 shipping (core and new engine)

Not to exciting my arse! :D

looks good!

$2800 is pretty cheap considering i spent $6000 on my FD engine but everything except rotors and eshaft are new on that. if i keep my TII probably gonna have judge ito build a new engine for it :)

i got a 86 without turbo and i'm running 13's you guys need more time on the track may engine is ported and some other sh## no NOS and i'm running 13.6

edloverofmd:

what mods do you have to run a 13.6?!? That's crazy... Maybe there is hope for my 91...

and still don't have it!!!:D

And Soul's car is coming to the states via:
OVERLAND YAK!

Timeslip?

Also, point to this post? A ported motor running 13.6 isn't all that impressive. After all, one of the member's posted a 8. something via a ported 13B motor, no power adder.

Performance rebuild based on 5yr. core $2400
Stage 2 porting $ 250
Stage 3 oil mods $ 325
Machining of apex grooves to 3mm $ 295
HD apex seals $ 495

That is the run down on price of my rebuild. Also I payed the $400 core charge since I decided to keep my old engine (want to learn to rebuild a rotary :-)

edloverofmd what mods do you have because i have a 86 too

what do i hear???? the same thing you hear.... the sound of NOTHING LOL. atleast my car is in the US. its even 15miles away LOL

I hear the sound of YAKS, dragging their ass through the siberian plains!

atleast i drove mine for 3 years! :D

bah :doh:

Now I truly understand "Credit that knows no end"

That's about the same price I paid for my car.

OK, so the $2400 is the price of the engine itself? I always got the impression that the $2400 was the base cost plus the cost of whatever housings had to be replaced. Since my front housing is probably a mess, I was petrified at the cost of a new engine for my car. Now that I'm looking at spending $2400+ whatever options I want, I'm much happier.
