134149, Project Interceptor: 2.4 Build Posted by streetlightning, May-16-11 08:18 AM
Thought Id start a Project log.. I like to thank in advance 2GNT, for the enormous amount of help I’ve received.. Thanks guys! My goals, are a nice, clean, streetable torque monster.
Engine: 99 EDZ block Forged Veniola Pistons, and Rods with total seal conventional Rings with a CR of ~ 9.0:1 The short block assembly is balanced, main and rod bearings are clevites. SRT4 timing tensioner, with 10 mm bolt mod, SRT 4 oil pump and SRT water Pump The oil pan is a steel pan fabricated from scratch (by STT). The oil filter is setup for a remote filter bracket and line set. the Oil pan has -8 AN fittings for pump outlet and inlet. I plan n mounting the remote oil filter on the pass frame rail.
AMM intake manifold with MP 60mm TB Hahn 3” down pipe, ans 3” all the way to the rear with no cat
Head: Used ARP hard ware (pieced together by STT), Mopar MLS HG with hot glue to hold it together… SBR stg 3 Head: PnP SS Valves +1mm on the exhaust side Crane Springs and retainers Crower Stg 2 (6446-2) cams Bronze valve guides Crane Adj cam gears PT lifters and 2.7 Rockers Turbo/Fuel/EMS: S20g with ceramic coating Log Mani with ceramic coating Hahn FMIC Turbo XS RFL 2.5” IC piping PTE 1000cc Low Z injectors MSnSE running as stand alone with sequential injection Wally 255 High flow 6AN SS feed from pump to rail STT aluminum fuel rail Aeromotive 1:1 FPR with 6 an SS return line
Trans/brakes: 3.55 Neon trans Quaife LSD DSS stg 5 axles (off Hahns car) Soutbend OFE clutch GSX front caliper conversion Things to come: New rims ( something deep dish and 5 spoke) Rear gsx conversion aka drum to disk New tubeular exhaust mani, and all new 3” v-banded all the way back GT30R upgrade or something simalar
I Started by removing my built 2.0, getting the body ready for paint. Decided on a nice gloss black. Enjoy the pix: )

Looks good. Now you can put all your 2.4 questions in here instead of creating an individual thread every time, heh. I think now I will merge all your shit here.

Well, after a short season, i washed my walls.. im special.. I was to rich, so it was a tuning problem. But it was a blessing in disguise.. I noticed while putting everything back together, that the infamous crane/findanza cam gears were starting to crack! good thing i caught it! i got me some Unorthodox gam gears now. I also manualized my rack, and had IJ build me a custom scraper and trap doors for my pan.. came out amazing!

What paint code did you use? Can you explain those aerocatch latches on your bumper. Take some close up pictures for a small write up. Great job.
|
135548, RE: Project Interceptor: 2.4 Build Posted by streetlightning, Nov-25-11 08:21 PM
They are for my quick release setup that im devolping.. We should have the final setup sometime soon and up on our site once it built lol.. of course 2gnt ppl get a deal on em ; P
as for paint code, i wanted jet black.. painter did the rest..

Nice. There's guy on tuner with a silver 2gb awd did samething to his front bumper with anodized latches.

135550, RE: Project Interceptor: 2.4 Build Posted by streetlightning, Nov-26-11 01:13 AM
yea, i think hes using the dzus latches.. imo they dont look good and they back out under driving contions, thus what prompted me to create a system using the aerocatches

I'm glad your cat is trained!! I left ONE Sparco Torino seat in my girlfriends living room for about 5 minutes, came back and her cat had just started trying to use it as a scratch pole!!
Anyway, are there more videos I missed of the engine running here? super stoked on this build, I am also a NO rain driver.

Well a lil update. so last year i washed my walls trying to tune MS. this sucked, but was a godsend.. as my sweet (sarcasm) findanza gears were starting to crack! the neon guys warned me. they were right. got it before they could damage anything.. talk bout lucky.. replaced them with a set of 2.4 Unorthodox gears and PC'd them to match

Super clean man. Good attention to detail and that manifold is killer.

136455, RE: Project Interceptor: 2.4 Build Posted by xcasbonx, Apr-16-12 05:57 AM
Everything looks pretty good man, especially clean.
One of these days I'll get around to installing all the poly suspension bushings I've had sitting around.

+1 for a clean build. Looks great.

137288, RE: Project Interceptor: 2.4 Build Posted by optimistic420a, Aug-25-12 07:59 PM
This may be a dumb question( But i'm asking anyways :) ), How come your t-belt tensioner has what looks like a bolt, instead of a nut like mine did?
|
137291, RE: Project Interceptor: 2.4 Build Posted by streetlightning, Aug-25-12 09:45 PM
Because ot does. Its the "bolt" mod. Its an in between mod for those with cams, but cams that are not quite big enough to require a billet tensioner. Its pretty popilar in the srt world.
