My Series 6 money pit
 

finally got my self an FD, which after a few mods proceeded to split the rear housing on the dyno and destroy itself

this was one of those " its been rebuilt" motors , ha ha should have known better, the rear housing was dowelled in the wrong place making it weak and splitting, inside was not much better, munted endplates and stuffed housings, I felt sorry for the dude I bought it off as he had evidence of lots of money spent on said motor and was none the wiser

so a few thousands later brand new Mazda sourced 13B , stripped down and cnc bridgeported with fancy seals, link G4 ecu and a nice big turbo, also fixed all the shite wiring other hacks had done

just finishing off my TR6060 conversion which I have cut and welded my self , I have all the dxf drawings if anyone is keen , im just in the middle of doing the shifter and drive shaft so its almost ready to go
the pic with the big turbo was a massive fail, the turbo caused to much back pressure bending the seals, a refresh fresh and a Borg warner later made for good dyno results

I have managed low 11s on the quarter being nice to the stock gearbox, with the TR6060 im hoping for 10s because ill be able to thrash it harder

Welcome to forum

Welcome!! Very sweet FD! Glad to hear its been rebuilt correctly
it should be much more reliable now that you've corrected all of the precious owner's mistakes.

and i thought the video was going to show this. how may pulls did u get in before the destruction?

I wish I had recorded it, was on a different rolling road at a different backyard tuner, I think it was a combo of a "mouth and trousers tuner", terrible map and a tired badly doweled engine

next step is maybe the ford exploder rear end mod, I've braced everything including the diff hat mod but with the gearbox and twin plate I think the axles and diff might suffer

if the box is good it was a really cheap upgrade, $1500 for the TR6060 and about $200 bucks worth of 6mm plate to cut out all the patterns to adapt it, even retains the factory starter location just like the $6500 kit I seen online that I used the pictures to copy off the cut out for the starter clearance

Welcome!
