so, LC-1 mounted.
Now i can set it up better, the original HEGO is a mess.
i tok the white stuff around the ex-manifold away, the manifold and my HEGO nearly burns away.
i did change the power steering tubes it wasnt god!
It´s not easy to get some (performance) parts here in germany!

i´m searching for some silicon Tube for my inlet manifold, but i dont need full meters, this stuff is soo expensinve here!
The one meter 75mm silicon Tube costs me the same i payed for the complette intake manifold, that sucks....

in two weeks i will do some next steps....

Looks good that, nice to see someone doing something different with a MK6 Escort. Should be pretty rapid when done

Jackass1983

it´s fast enough even now.
i want more torque and less fuel

cheers mark

Jackass1983

So, some changes hapend!
With the new Setup with the Lc-1 i messured that i can make it leaner!
Now, it runs up to 3000rpm on AFR 14,7:1 and over it on 13,9:1!
That is a quit nice setup it needes less fuel now and it runs very fast!
in the moment i am building a vacuum system to swith the IMRC in the intake manifold.
i can use it with my ECu, so it would be fine!

here is a pic of the engine in the last month, some selfmade carbonparts are fitted now (not on pic..!)





I also mounted a AFR Meter in the Tachometer that shows me with 3digits behind the point my AFR from 0.500 to 1.500
and you also can see it dosnt need much fuel!



The connecter for the ECu and the Lambda Cable


And here my Garage, it is an Old military Bunker

Hello people.
A lot is done!
I switched to another ECU (now Trijekt T101), and i did some progress on the Inlet Camtiming!
I organised some Datasheed about the VCT movement, so i could set it perfect.
In the past i thought that the car was fast, but now i know what is possible!
In 2weeks it goes back in the winter garage, this year is the first that i can spend the hole winter in making things better!
I dont have to repair any part... so i am realy happy!

so, updates soon!

Cheers Mark ( www.ST2000.de )

Hezz

bond villain garage

Jackass1983

So, Shifter completly overhauled!
I was suprised the bearing for the shifter is aviable as a sparepart!
My dealer said i was the first guy how ordered that part!

i hope i find the time this WE to upload some pics..

Cheers Mark ( www.ST2000.de )

The first Pic shows the Shifter decomposed!to find the finished parts...


The 2nd Pic shows the old and the new part!


After a nice clean and paint everything looks like new!



So, thats it for today!
The next part to work on, is the Steering!

The List for this Winter is long, a lot of pics will come in future!

I didnt think the ST engine would even fit in an mk6 escort.. if i hadn't of seen it wouldn't have believed it could even fit in there... pretty cool project... oh and i love the garage how cools that old bunker lolol ...how big is the bunker in total...

Jackass1983

Hello

The Bunker is about 7*7 meter innersize.. its realy cool...

So and today its time for some updates.. i did alot in the meantime..

The Steering is completly overhaulin now, thats the only thing i did not do on my own!
I found a litle company, they did it for me!

Here the pics..




And i also did some progress on the underfloor!
A few years ago i removed the painting and stoneship stuff from it, just to have a look for rust! (i never found one!)
So now the car has driven a lot, and it was time to have a second look at it all!
Its the best moment now to do this, the Shifter ist out, the exhaust is out, engine axles and gearbox is also out!
So enough space to work on everything without geting gyno practice...

so enough letters, now pictures...

before


work on the edges..


and the end finish





so enough for today, waiting for our motorshow... need new shiny stuff!

Matas Damir

Are you satisfied with DTA ECU???

Jackass1983

no i am not,
i did a swop to Trijekt last winter, DTA wasnt god..
The Software does have some nice features and it looks god, but the hardware is a mess...
The Escort is just a Hobbycar, its not my daily driver, so i have enough time to sort problems out!
But there where a lot of little things you cant control.
The biggest problem was the idle control, in three years using DTA i never got the idle system work.
At the end, i controlled the idle with the butterfly and the ign moment..
Without a Widebandlambda closep loop you are not able to get it run on your destinated AFR..

The new ECU does run with open Lambdacircle after 2-3 hours mapping better than DTA ever did!
The car did run more than 20km/h faster after swapping and it feels much stronger..

and the support is like geting milk by your neighbour!

Matas Damir

Wich ECU are you using now???

marky_g

looks nice mate proper engine

Jackass1983

I am Using now the Trijekt T101 ( www.Trijekt.de )
Its realy nice...

Jackass1983

UPDATETIME....

The underside is finish now... i had to remove two rust areas... AARRRGGGG.....

The Axle is back in again with steering and shifter...

Jackass1983

So, next step is reasemble the wishbones and the coilovers.

Thats it for today...

Jackass1983

So, Wishbones are in, realy nice feeling.... i want to take a ride.....

Getting there


Brian

Jackass1983

i would love to be a bit faster, im running out of time!
In the Garage its f...ing cold (about 3-4°C), and i find only time for maximum two visits a week!
The Garage is so cold because its underneath the earth and in the middle of a forest..

I still have to do the engine and the reasembling, over febr. i am on Holiday, so time is geting less!

mikey p

you have a data sheet for the standard cam timing (with the advance and retard)?
ive been trying to find one for a while.... if you do could you send it my way please?

Jackass1983

hi, i dont know the exactly meaning of "advance and retard!"
But i think its the movement forward and backward..

And yes, i do have a sheet with that on it!

Jackass1983

So,
Gear back in..
Drive shafts back in..
Suspension back in..

and everything painted (parts and mounts)..
All rubbers and sealings are new..
pics are following the next days..

i started to collect the engine parts, i just have to reactivate the vct and make a little resto to all engine parts..

Jackass1983

So, only a short week is left until my Holiday starts!

and today is startet to strip the engine, i dont have to make a complette rebuild.
I just have to reasamble the VCT Unit, and take out the Srew in the oilchanal...

ofcourse, i do the normal stuff, what is need to do on a "old" engine... (43kkm
It gets new seelings, new paint!
And i hope the time is enough to go for some powdercoating...

Its like this now..


HMM, i knew, there a two Versions, but i did not know that i have the choice....
Thats the original Setup...



And i started to do some Carbon fibre parts... (more will come)


maybe the second last update before holiday....

iTrader: (1)

top work.

Jackass1983

so, yesterday i had the last change to do something before i go to holiday!

So here is the last update for the next 3,5weeks...

South Africa is waiting...

The VCT is back in again... new Timing belt etc. is on!


Here is a pic of the TB...old and new...

I have to make little modifications on the inletmanifold to make it proper!
It does fit, but its not very smothy inside...

And the CF stuff is also growing...
The endfinish will also come after holiday..


so thats it for now... i will have a look sometimes... but the next pics wont come before the 23feb.
I am not offline, but nearly 9000km away from home... **jeah..baby...**

Jackass1983

So, Holiday is over...
And i was busy, the Engine is in!
The Radiator is also in, i started the wiring and tubing.
Exhaust is also in.. its fits wonderfull.

More tomorrow..

Jackass1983

so it nearly looks like a car again!
Still some things to do.
its a real strugle to make the new vct cables, i have to open the loom again!

here a little pic, what it looks like now..

Jackass1983

so its running!
I had a first testdrive without any problems, instead a little mistake of me..

Here is a video, from the first run with a little setup, to get it idle better.
