Turbo Turtle festiva

[tls_zx3]

re-built b3


yeah that is a 3.5" touch screen dvd player. walmart has them for 100 with speakers


and civic shifter with my knob off my ratchet shifter in the focus... also got some door hing brass bushings in the front

[festyfreak39]

that is one crazy focus, yikes.

[tls_zx3]

bunch of festiva parts. 165/65-13's, new clutch, timing, rings, rod and main bearing, full gasket kit, new radio and speakers, etc.



also ordered one of those 88 civic short shifters for 10 bucks

i decided just to polish the crank i have. turned out ok. i think it will work fine. i would like to have had a perfect one but im sure this one will hold oil pressure just fine and i doubt 60-100hp wont be a problem of it lol

after


before. almost all the scaring is gone. didnt want to take the large gooves out b/c that would take to much material. i just got them smooth and as small as possible

[tls_zx3]

what is the difference between the large and small nose cranks in the b3. are the journals on the crank the same size. will they interchange in blocks. what makes them different? is it just the nose?

would i need like the oil pump, timing gear, and crank pulley to make a small one fit in my block?

i am going to montgomory thursday to get a b3 crank.

right now i have a large nose.

the reason i ask is because if i get there and the only crank that is good happens to be a small nose, do i need to get the whole short block or can i make just the crank work on my car...

also do aspires come in both small and large nose options

let me know if you need any help with it or a built engine. i build and sell forged zetecs and have plenty of experience with turbo focus. what parts/turbo you using

[eurotiva]

Sweet car. I have a zx5 I have been wanting to build. I have all the parts to turbo it, just have 2 other turbo toys already.

[tls_zx3]

yeah that is my car. they wanted pics of the focus so i put them up.

it is a 5.3 (soon to be built 6.0)
t76 turbo (probably change to s475 or pt88 later)
th400 trans manual valve body 2500 stall
8.8 rear end qa1 coil overs
nitto tires
mazda3 5 lug/brake conversion on the front
custom subframe, custom floor pan, customer pretty much every thing... steering, tunnel, etc.

i built it all my self so all i have in it is parts. no krugel kit used. shooting for a high 8 sec 1/4 when it is finished.

no trades unless you have a c6 z06 or a enough cash that i can buy one.

[Hot_Wheels]

so you put up pics of a ls rwd focus but no other info???? come on man dont hold out, is that yours? whats the list done to it? how much you got into it? i want willing to trade for some turbo festivas?

[tls_zx3]

[tls_zx3]

here are some pics of the festiva. the prob with the rings were the 2nd compression ring and all oil rings are stuck on every piston.







you can see the scaring on the crank journals. this is the best crank. the other is destroyed

[chrisofna]

Sorry for topic change but I and everyone else require pictures of your Focus you are building.

[gestiva]

^B3's are in aspires! lol, There are 2 in montgomery Pull a part....

[villageidiot]

my head kit said b3 and b6 mazda

[tls_zx3]

im guessing my head gasket that i bought will not work on a b6. it says aspire on the box. but idk if they but a b3 in the aspire or not... no idea. i guess im going to pull a part to look at that b6 sun and see if it is any good or not
