Hi. I´m about to do a complete overhaul on my 3. gen 3sge. Bearings, toothbelt, seals, gaskets, and pistonrings. And while I´m at it I thought, hey why not have
some fun at the same time. So now I got St205 brakes and a s54-06d gearbox waiting for installation too. It´s making 188 hp on 95 octane (we have 98 in this country) with a decat and KN panel filter + an alu lightweight crankpulley. I ´ve done a lot of research on this engine and I think I have a pretty good Picture of what I want. I´m going for re-shaped cams, a good maschinist shop will make them into 264*. I´m going to up the compression by shaving off the head, install a Fidanza flywheel, make a cai into the oe box along with supporting mods like Magnecor leads a wideband lambda sensor and perhaps an adjustable fpr or high capacity fuelpump. No piggyback or standalone at the moment, but it is on the list for future mods. My thoughts are: 1. how much can I shave off the head? I once read somewhere (can´t find it anymore) that 1mm is ok. My concerns here are mainly detonation, but also piston/valve contact (but I don´t think so as this engine is a non interference engine), and cambelt slack. 2. will the oe green injectors be able to deliver enough fuel? I don´t know how much they are rated at. Thank you for reading ![]() |

Well not much news here. Had my injectors cleaned and tested and they are fine for the job with the addition of an adjustable fpr. Also bought a new clutch. New lightweight flywheel and engine Work are Next.
Yeah a proper racing seat and 6 belt harness is good when racing. Had Corbeau and Trw when I used to race a couple of years ago. But this car is also a dd so won´t be getting those toys for it. Which also Means I have the Money for a proper adjustable suspension. Oh why do I need new brakes? cos the oe ones are **** and will never survive a track day. Nor will the car or I ![]() |
