Im gonna wait to do the stroker kit(I wanna see what "they" can do with the new L92). So Im just gonna buy a low mile complete 5.3 off ebay, they usually go for $800-$1500. I still plan to turbo charge it. after the I sell the 84 that money will be used for my tranny build. was gonna order up some A-arms this week but mom got a new bike and that motivated me to get the busa done. everything is ordered for it even a couple mods. should be back on the road week after next(minus exhaust, thats 4 weeks out)

moms 06 kawasaki ZX6R Limited A.K.A. ZX636


had to lower it 2.5"

 

git 'r done.

nice lookin' bike.

there was a guy at the shop last week that was feelin' your '84, don't ask me why.
he asked how much you'd sell it for, and i was like uh, i dunno, 1G? haha.

 

thats what Im selling it for. I think the 84 is bad *** even if it is brown. I wanna keep it, but I need to focus on one project......The Iroc

 

 

Your mom rocks

 

Nice bike for momma wow!

Needs an undertail kit though, like most any sportbike IMO.

That'll definitely look nice with the LE.

Plans sound good bro best of luck to you and I hope to actually one day see your IROC screamin' down the street.

 

Iroc-Z: ordered some Spohn Tubular Lower A-Arms(black) w/delrin style bushings from ThunderRacing $463.26 shipped(took advantage of their 10% off sale, saved $47). I'll post pics in 7-10 business days


'BUSA: got most of it apart, just waiting on the new billet stator cover and frame plugs.

 

I got my Control arms for 450 shipped. and it wasnt even a special deal thingy.

 

regular price is $395 I added the delrin bushings which adds another $75, $470 total. Basically I got free shipping and a combo meal

 

Same here.
the spherical bushing things.
I'm just trying to rub salt in the wound.

 

now lets just see who get theirs first!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

 

Iroc-Z: Anticipating the arrival of my control arms. after puting the busa back together I really wanna work on the Iroc. maybe a couple hours after work a couple days a week. parts permitting of course.

'BUSA: found out the fairing stay is bent so I will order one after the holidays. still need to put the new tank on I been lazy the last couple days. also my exhaust needs some adjusting to be just right. I've added an HMF dual high mount slip on exhaust, billet stator cover and a clear alternatives intergrated tail light. I have a couple more mods in mind.



Moms Ninja: un-like me shes starting off small with her mods . no more passenger pegs

 

"I been lazy the last couple days"
Story of your life ^_^

Nice bikes, I hope my iroc will outrun them someday.

 

surprise!!!!! surprise!!!!!!!! still waiting for the conrtol arms

picked up a BMR adjustable panhard bar used $100

 

Is this for your bike?

 

no mike its for the Iroc. I ordered some spohn tubular lower control arms about 2 weeks ago.

heres the BMR adustable panhard bar/rod whatever



got if off norcalls1-lt1 classifieds

the busa is basically done. I have some very little minor mods I wont to do but other than that its finished. time to start buying parts for the Iroc, and maybe even install some of them. the 84 is gone and the nissan only gets gas and oil changes so I don't really have anything that will take funds away from the Iroc project. if I push my self and not do some of the things I wanted to I may be able to get it up and running for Santa Cruz "MAY"

 

Thank GOd. I was really looking hard for a motorcycle forum for you and just not having any luck.



Your IROC is white, right?

 

yes its white for now.

Im on 2 motorcycle forums

www.gixxer.com

and

www.hayabusa.org

 

It was white, it's probably under 2" of dust by now.

 

Who did you order you lca's from? I got mine straight from Spohn and had them in about 4 days. That's the same panhard I have.

 

The bike looks sweet. Nice to see it back together. Ride safe. Not a good time to be out riding. Pavement is cold and not much traction!

 

its the front control arms. ordered from thunder racing but their coming straight from spohn

 

I will be posting pic's of the control arms tomarrow . UPS tried to deliver them today but no one was here to sign

 

You know whats cool about Placerville, if no ones here, one of my four neighbors will sign for me, or they will just leave it at the door.

no worries

 

sweet lookin bikes

 

put the wonderbar in there for the hell of it

how's that feel

also ordered something else, but I post when it gets here

 

yeah, used to be able to do that. was an old lady that lived next door to me, if no one was home the ups guy would leave it with her and she would bring it to the persons house when someone was there. the UPS guy is cool he usually come by my house a second time(about 5pm) if no one is home the first time around

 

I got ripped off, my equipment isn't coming

lol

 

well its not here yet due to the holidays but I let you guys know what it is anyway

4.8L genIII

dont let the size fool you stock #'s are 285hp/290tq. W2W added one of their turbo kits, 42lb injectors, AFPR, and a W2W tune to a stock 4.8L and made 542hp/603tq @ 8psi. I hope to make some thing close to that on mine

 

That's not a bad deal for the 4.8.

I know where two L92 cores are (both dropped one valve each, one has slight piston damage, the other needs a new head due to carnage) and I think I can get them cheap. I might just buy them and tuck them away in my garage for a rainy day.

 

you should buy atleast one of them

I gonna built an low compression L92 for the Iroc in the future, maybe start late next year. can't really beat the performance of the heads or the price

 

I think my gen 1 will make some good numbers but once I run out of things to do on the iroc, a super gen 3 engine will be its next transplant, and im talking 1000+hp.

But thats many years away from now.

 

pick'd up some spohn SFC from koolctk Thanks!!

this is kinda what the under side of my car will look like. I also plan to get a bmr track pak witch comes with its own crossbrace that I will have to fit in some where

 

and thank you for the cash and no shipping BS to deal with.

 

Kairles,

Not exactly sure but what is the deal with the one SFC on the right. It looks as if it is stepped down at the top of the picture where the pipe lays across the top. Can you get me a close up of that? I have not seen that before and was wondering why they do that?

P.S. How is the busa?

 

I think it's for the cat, but not positive.

 

well I ordered some sportlines today from jegs. I also took advantage of the UMI group purchase and ordered some rear lower control arms that should be here on the feb. 14. think im gonna do some cleaning in the garage, and work on the Iroc this weekend. finally gonna take the seats out and front a-arms maybe even the K-member. I also need to get the stock TPI harness out so I can sale it and free up some shelf space.

the busa is doing good I road it last saturday and sunday and had a blast. fairing stay is on also added some carbon fiber stock style mirrors, carbon barends and some billet spools, also have some carbon levers on the way. tank still has a dent, Im gonna call dent pros to see if they can fix it if not Im gonna have to buy another one(the one I bought was slighty different). Im gonna order some Race Railz in a week or to.

 

I would be interested to see them on your bike. From the looks of them I think they would hit my legs. Maybe once you have them on your bike and if we meet up I could sit on you bike to see if they would fit me. I like the idea. They look like they would help out a bunch if the bike was to go down.

 

once I get the tank back in I'll re-assemble the rear suspension.



also have a Harness and ECM out of on 01 SS 6-speed on the why

 

Awesome, glad to see some new pics

I remember when that tranny was just sliding around in my truckbed heh, is that still going to t56rebuilds online thing?

 

how much did you get for?

 

panhard bar? $100

 

I did get a little done today. installed the fuel pump and needed to do some wiring so I could use the plug that came with the edelbrock pump. getting the tank in was a lot easier than on the 84, took about 2 minutes. Then I put the rest of the rear suspension on. was a pain to get the lcarb in because of the e-brake cable bracket I had to bend one end back to fit them. Im gonna just cut the end off and have everthing welded later. Rear springs(sportlines), adj. panhard and LCA are all on and ready for action.

 

Sweet, I'm glad to see it coming together. When was the last time you drove it?

 

pulled it out of the garage and did a couple donuts back in March 2005

 

Good, very good.

Keep workin' on that sucker.

I got a chance to check out your Formy for a minute at Bennie's.

A shame that one is going away.

 

its not going any where I've decided to keep it

 

well okay then.

i thought it was kinda odd those nice new edelbrock headers/exhaust were going on just to be sold with the car.

 

sweet i am glad to see some progress...
