The 510 Realm

So I have a update... the block went to a machine shop to be honed and it turned out great. They also took a look at the pistons to make sure all the clearences were correct, removed the old rings etc. Unfortunately #4 has a broken 3rd ring land. The good news is its a Nissan piston. It measures apr...

No unfortunately this transmission is no good. Its the one I pulled from my car last year because was staring to make a lot of noise. This transmission was great for the highway and I prefer it over the other zx that is in my car now ... if you would like I can grab numbers and pictures so you can m...

I have the one with the taller 5th in my garage... I could go look for some numbers for you if you would like

nothing is special about them.. its just about $800 for new custom pistons? although $800 isn't a whole lot considering how much everything else costs so ... and I'm not too sure about how much more the block can be bored over. I was hoping to get this motor together and installed soon but I guess i...

So I decided to just drop the engine off to be honed by my mechanic .. anyways it cleaned up good except for a few small pits (I will get pictures later) so it seems like it cant be used :( . He says it would be fine for a na motor but a turbo he isn't so sure. So now I assume my options are 1.have ...

I wish somone had put a link on the other page to let people know this discussion had been moved :evil: :oops: anyways took care of it so no one else embarasses themselves. You guys left me hanging there .. I thought 510 guys are supposed to stick together :D. Anyways glad to see everything has been...

not realy an expert here .. just a few ideas.. could be wrong so dont shoot me.. I do have a air brake course and grade 11 & 12 physics under my belt Anyways I would look at the system as more like a couple air tanks with a pump filling them. The front brakes would be a big air tank, the back a ...

I would be interested in one .. maybe 2. My poor windshield has a white haze that makes it foggy when light hits it .. not good at night especialy with all these bright unajusted lights

I bought a cut din because I didnt want to cut my nice orginal one ... I also used the original radio mounting brackets and screws by drilling some new holes in the brackets. On my other car I bent some up out of scrap dont use those two wire clip on things as they lead to future problems, the end u...

So I haven't bought the drill or hone yet but I managed to clean the front cover, I think it turned out good. After 15 min of chiseling with a dull flat headed screwdriver and a green scrubbie it looked like this

Hey just thought I'd put this out there for everyone Anyways yesterday I was sorting through my harness and found someone had broke a pin off the plug that goes into the fuesbox DSC00182.JPG they jammed the wire (which fell out) into the hole to make it work and this is for the brake lights and horn...

ok so its off to buy a hone and a corded variable speed drill (I needed a corded drill anyways)... I'll keep everyone posted .. I got my fingers crossed

Andy gave me the fluids (redline) with gm diff additive :? but I remember spilling oil as I was tightening ...

yesterday I reaized my brothers car was coming back from the mechanic so when he was coming by to drop it off I had him look at the block. Anyways he said its hard to tell but it might need a rebore :( He suggested to first buy a 3 stone medium hone and run it through the worst cylinder #4 at 200rpm...
