uprate the oil pump and the best mod ever..................lighten and balance the bottom end :D

1.2-1.4mm :wink: you can go for the 2mm when you get the big turbo,forged pistons and the big boost :twisted:

you get uprated gears for the pump,believe their from a skyline or some such mickey mouse car :wink:

if the engine is coming out anyway,sell your wife,children and/or mother to get the money,but get the money :wink: :twisted:

you have to split the engine to get at the crank,rods,pistons and flywheel.
don't know exact prices but,i'd budget on at least £2-300 (pure guess).

if the engine is coming out of the car anyway,all you'll be paying extra for is:-the cost of removing the bits from the engine(couple of hours),the actual balancing/machining costs and a few extra hours to put it all back in :wink:

if you're doing all that,you might as well finish the job with a nice set of forged pistons :twisted:
