# MACKAY : Ehm.. Do you really need a billet block for only 400-600hp, don't get me wrong but you will be throwing the cash away for no reason and I am sure that you won't be going for 1xxxhp's anytime soon or ever, not with that type of Evo'. And my suggestion would be to stay away from all those USA specialists, you are in Japan, the land of your Evo, take a proper look around and you will find decent Evo' tuner in no time, ask Marc' here on forums if you need anything, he is our Evo' guy and I am sure he would help or give you some info on stuff if needed. Well indeed I'm not going for 1000+ HP mark, that's too much lol  Ahh yes, speaking of which, there's a promo going on in Nengun where Tomei has offered limited edition 4G63 block+their stroker kit, but then it's even more expensive over either buying the US block or buying their stroker kit alone. Even buying the billet block (without the crankshaft, conrods and pistons)+Tomei stoker is still cheaper!  Tbh I also had a bit of doubt over the cranks etc offered together with the block, as they don't specifically include the final displacement whenever a part change is performed. They do include the stroke, though. But yeah I should take another look, perhaps there's another Japan tuner that could offer me a block. I'm just afraid my stock block won't hold up the Tomei stroker, and I'm not sure if said stock block can be combined with billet head. Come to Tsukuba Fruits Line touge some time, I'm sure you'll enjoy it a lot!  Ah yes, I don't remember if I linked the billet site, but if I hadn't, here it is EDIT: Damn, it's quite tough to find a proper one. So far all sites that has fresh 4G63 blocks are US sites, and most other sites don't have 4G63S for Evo I-III (if I have to fit ones from Evo IV-IX, I have to modify the subframes, tranny and mounts, which means even more money thrown). Even from the Japanese ones only Tomei that has fresh blocks available, and they're for Evo VIII-IX Here are the ones that I found: -Built Industries, via Built4G63. Starts from V$2500+: *LINK* -Built Industries, via Built Industries/Built EJ. V$1700: *LINK* -Magnus tuned 2.0L block. V$3300: *LINK* -Magnus 2.3L stroker block. V$4900: *LINK* -Modern Auto Performance 2.0L block. V$2600: *LINK* -Modern Auto Performance 2.3L stoker block. V$2600: *LINK* Which one would you guys recommend? Also, wonder why prices at both Built Industries sites can be different This post was edited by BigSmoke (2018-11-17 21:31, ago) |
