Short story...
I bought that EG3 (D13B2) for bargain 80 pounds - the engine was damaged (timing belt snap..), radiator and a few other bits and bobs was missing...
I should mention that I’m not a car mechanic, and all I know at the moment learned on that EG. Also.. all I have done I did on my one (except head skimming – later about that..) So… the beginning was quite tough, didn't have a clue what I'm doing, and where to start...
Any way.. after many hours I managed to replace timing belt, install new radiator and fire up for the first time. That the tired but proud and happy mong face:
Then went try it, weigh it, run on dyno, and there comes suprise... My D13 (120000miles on the clock) push the stock power!!
Power: 74,2bhp @ 6015rpm
Torque: 68,8lbft @ 4941rpm
Weight: 965kg (with full petrol tank) 0-60mph – 12,8sec
0-100mph – 39,0sec
I'll skip few month’s of work, thousand’s pics lot’s of swearing during the process… And there we are:
Modifications: ENGINE (d13b2)
- VMS (10,2mm) blue ignition
- NGK irydium spark plugs
- a bit more aggressive camshaft (from D14A1)
- vernier pulley - blue
- head skimming 0,9mm
- thin (compare with standard D13) head gasket – D16Y8
- head porting
- oil filter adapter plate
- oil filter hamp
- oil temp sensor
- water temp sensor
- fully synthetic oil - motul 8100
- custom made fly wheel (4,1kg)
- modified dual carb (from D14A1)
- cold air duct
- manifold 4-2-1, double wrapped with black heat warp tape
- free flow 2,25’’ exhaust wrapped with black heat warp tape
SUSPENSION / TRACTION:
- rims - 15’’ rota grid
- tires – toyo T1R 195/50
- lowering springs (-30 to –40mm)
- VTI spec shockers
- 18mm front anti-roll bar
- 15mm rear anti-roll bar
- silver skunk2 lower arms
- front upper strut bar
- front lower strut bar
- rear upper strut bar
- lower tie bar
BRAKES:
- just swap from EG4 – a bit biger discs, calipers and servo
INTERIOR:
- bucket seats cobra moonaco
- schroth 3 point harness with some kind of locking mechanism
- modified speedo
- OMP steering wheel
- the shortest NRG boss kit
- oil temp digital gauge
- water temp digital gauge
- stripped out and painted in black matt (inc. dashboard)
- battery moved to the boot
EXTERIOR:
- smoke Angel Eyes
- smoke flat side indicators
- modified front bumper
- modified rear bumper
- carbon bonnet
- sunroof replaced with aluminium plate
- mudflaps and rear wiper removed
All that change the poor D13 a little bit New spec:
Power: 101,3bhp @ 7146rpm
Torque: 82,1lbft @ 4588rpm
Weight: 860kg (with full petrol tank) 0-60mph – 7sec
0-100mph - 19sec
