Beau Yates - Toyota 86 Monster Build

[R&D Mechanical]

Not too sure this setup will be as reliable as the AE86

[Matt]

Kinda reminds me a little of the castle hill turbo kit, being one of the first in Aus , it hit some issues. Give him time, I'm sure he will have a very reliable engine / car.

I bet the motor doesn't last..
Both beau's 4a and 3s we're build by reputable engine builders.
West end performance for the 4a and Neil bates workshop built the 3sg. (From memory)

2 motors had zero issues mechanically ever!
Now we have CV performance and a snapped crank shaft..
Bet if the motor was stock it wouldn't snap a new crank..

Poor machine work and incorrect clearances and assembly I bet.

Could be something simple that's been overlooked, although I have seen a "full house port & polish" smallport that was built there and every port was different... I'm sure there will be an explanation at some point anyway.

[Matt]

Snapping a subaru crank is not an easy feat.

Free shit is not alway good shit

[johl]

this motor is a new beast though, a 4a/3s you can literally google a troublefree and proven way to make power. someone has to push the boundaries and test what this motor is capable/incapable of.

unless of course you personally know of this workshop not being up to scratch

[lolwat]

Apparent oil issues where had

[Matt]

Odds are beau will be driving his ae86 this weekend

[ae8zn6]

always nice to have a mental back up car...
