My Turbo D Project
 

Im new to this forum, got on cause my cousin is on here

I got a 91 CRX HF

I did a favor for my bro (drove him hella far to get his motor plus taking work off) so he gave me his d16z6 block, and rebuilt z6 head for free. I was going to just get another d16z6 and swap it in right away while i build it, but Im going to save money and just keep my HF motor in and build the free z6 motor I got.

something was wrong with the block, there was knockin or something, we think it was one of the rods. how could I find out if the block is still useable? or what was wrong with it? I was planing to take out the rods and the pistons and put in tuner toy rods and vitara pistons and getting the block honed and probably posted. Would that fix the block?

By the way how much PSI's can the vitara pistons handle?

Besides the piston and rods what other internals would be good to get? and from experience what aftermarket internals in the head are good for turbo?

My goal is to make around 300whp with a t3/t4.

Thanks
I'll be posting pictures of my project as I go along

Was there any point to your post? Looks completely ------- useless to me.

If there is a spun bearing you can still use the block but might need a new crank. I wouldnt suggest having the crank ground if it is bad.

This thread is useless without pics.

You have to tear it apart and check the main/rod journals.
