hi guys, it's time for rebuild my engine, so i would like to share with you my progress. i hope the photos will be fine because i took them with my mobile.
day 1. little progress, not so many things. it is not so easy to take the engine out and strip it
http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t79/mpamphnos/rebuild/2136d8a7.jpg

the engine is already out
http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t79/mpamphnos/rebuild/37556416.jpg

and the car looks like this...

i decide to make it shorter about 60mm and of course porting and polishing

thank you, i hope tomorrow i will have more progress.
good night to all

That's not bad for a day work ;)
Looks like you have plenty of room to work in :)

Looking forward to see this project going forward.

19-01-12, 18:44
The car is at my mechanics garage. We were 3 people so that's why we did a lot of work in one day. I hope everything will go well. In my progress I want to change
Forged pistons
Light flywheel
Clutch
Head gasket
Arp head bolts
And I will remove completely the balance shafts. I have already buy a removal kit

19-01-12, 21:01
how much did it costed and where to buy it?

mpampis_
19-01-12, 21:12
Most parts I bought them from www.scara73.it about what part you mean? I guess about balance shafts removal kit. I bought it 135 euros but the kit didn't include 2 more taps that I made them here in Greece and cost 25 euros. I will post photos tomorrow

it was a long day today
first of all we finished the inlet manifold. after that we will paint it completely
http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t79/mpamphnos/rebuild/035edead.jpg

we take out the pistons and all inside the engine

very good condition in case of 345.000 km
we sent already the block engine for grinding and we start to port and polishing the head

I see health and safety rules haven't reached Greece yet. There are at least 3 in that pic.

Seriously though, looks like you are well on the way with things.

Just a question, what is the reason for shortening the Kappa inlet? Is it just to make it fit a little better?

;)

Safety isn't always the first thing to be thinking of. I am also skipping this a lot..... :blush:

mpampis_
20-01-12, 20:36
Yes you are right about safety rules :) I make the manifold shorter for being quicker in respond. But I think maybe I will loose some torque at low rpm.

21-01-12, 07:26
I also show a damaged Valve rubber but anyway I have a new set to replace. Also some valves needs to be rubbed. That's why some loosen compression in the cylinder.

My head gasket was in good condition too. Now I have a spesso with steel fire rings

Steve Webb
21-01-12, 12:25
Was that an inlet or exhaust valve? Looks like it wasn't seating at all well.

mpampis_
21-01-12, 13:29
This was an exhaust valve. You are right. I had 3 valves that didn't seat well. No everything is ok

21-01-12, 18:10
a little progress today too. the engine block and the head came from griding

it is time to remove the balance shafts, and this is the removal kit
http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t79/mpamphnos/rebuild/65682cc2.jpg

it was a quite easy job i can say
http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t79/mpamphnos/rebuild/db7859e4.jpg
http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t79/mpamphnos/rebuild/57306c17.jpg

first of all we need to tap the oil conductors that drives the oil to the balance shafts
http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t79/mpamphnos/rebuild/1e157577.jpg
http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t79/mpamphnos/rebuild/bc9ead30.jpg
and the second one
http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t79/mpamphnos/rebuild/3da1fa85.jpg

after that i had to tap tha balance shaft's hole

the only thing for finishing the engine rebuild is the camshafts. i wish until summer i can buy a pair of C&B and i will start my next project with the body kit. i imagine it already wider like zagato....!!!! aaawww.....my sweet dreams

Steve Webb

Are the plugs that are used to block off the balance shaft oil-ways thread-locked in?

Looking very nice by the way, how much power are you looking for when its all back together?

The balance shafts removal kit is working. I didn't see more oil pressure but the good point is that the oil pressure is ok. 7 bar in the morning when the oil is cold and 3 bar at idle when the oil is warm. I don't know about the power but I am planing to boost the turbo 1.6 bar and 2,2 bar with methanol on track days. I hope to peak 50kg of torque and 370-380 hp. In full boost I remain more but the dyne will show the truth.

That was because I bought all parts before the rebuild. We were 3 people working on the engine. We spent 1 week and the most difficult was to relocate things like fuel pressure regulator, idle valve and some cables. The result is great by the way. Now I have to drive 1000 km in normal condition with low boost and after that to remap the ecu

Sounds like the oil pressure is pretty good, what I meant was did you use something like this:
http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQmAvTh0SnsWHxa0fA_EavmdRyQw-UsIyPjnCSoeccK29metzhhFA

when you put the plugs in. So there is no chance that they will move. The ones near the crank could cause a lot of damage if they came loose.

mpampis_
04-02-12, 19:54
Yes I did Steve. Even I didn't use there where no problem but I use it for being sure 1000%

Well, now after the first 1500 km of normal driving ready for bigger injectors.
I bought siemens Deka 660

http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t79/mpamphnos/8f275477.jpg
After remmaping with new injectors I boost the turbo to 1.6- 1.7 bar because I was curious. Hehe!!! The results amazing! Now I need a bigger front mount Intercooler and already waiting my order of AEM water- methanol injection system for chemical Intercooler and high octane (130- 135 octane)

Sounds like someone is getting addicted to big power outputs.

mpampis_
07-04-12, 08:19
i never thought that but i think now i am addicted....hahaha, this was for "test" i am running 1.5 bar boost and it is like driving another car... when i tried 1.7 bar i thought the engine it was ready to spin the wheels even in 3rd gear. too much power that i never will learn to drive so fast even in trackday. i just know that i have a powerfull engine when i want it. i had open the exhaust throttle and when i passes a car in front of me, the people of the other car was scary....

Btw...were the front damper's upper bolts long enough to easely mount the Momo strut bar? Tx

Yes. The bar is from Alfa 156 with direct fitting. No modifications. Thank you for nice comment

AlfaJack
09-04-12, 17:59
Where you removed the balance shafts, do you not have the front idler bearing for the cambelt?

mpampis_
09-04-12, 18:32
Yes, the cap from removal kit can handle the bearing that the cam belt passing from there
http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t79/mpamphnos/2e9edef9.jpg
As you can see I place the stock bearing to the new cap

well, the project didn't stop here, i recentrly sent my ecu to RP-LAB company. for those who don't know them they are self-called "marelli specialist" and they upgrade our stock ecu www.rp-lab.com for more info.

also i started a new project for wider body kit like TI-Z. i hope it will be nice

this was the first thought when i had in my hands deltona's front fenders
http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t79/mpamphnos/bc779822.jpg

after that we start working on this project

http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t79/mpamphnos/9eae265b.jpg

That front wing looks great. Are they individually made or are you going to take a mold from them and have them made up in grp?

mpampis_
11-08-12, 08:21
As you see Steve we made a mod here. We put the wide part of deltona to our stock fender and after that we make an one piece of fiber glass full fender. This fender is going to be fitted exactly as the stock one. Same Size just wider

Are you going to be doing the same sort of thing at the rear as well?

How much wider are the fenders?

mpampis_
11-08-12, 13:36
Yes, I will do same thing to the rear door and rear fender. The front fenders are 30mm wider than the stock fender. At the rear will be 15mm wider because I already have the wide body

What kind of car is a deltona?

Is it possible to buy a set of fiberglass fenders from you?

I think he means Delta (integrale).

mpampis_
12-08-12, 08:54
Yes deltona I mean Integrale Evo2. Has a little difference from evo 1. At the back of the fender has a smal air duct. I am not the seller and I don't sell parts but when we finish I will tell the guys who made it to comunicate with Steve and to make a nice offer for berlinasportivo. I don't want to be in the middle because I don't want to make money for these things. Of course it will be the first kit for this car because I search a lot and I didn't find anywhere to buy it. These guys has very good prices and very good quality. Until then you can take a look here if you want www.dukesracing.gr

So when is the rest of the car being sprayed?

Steve Webb
22-08-12, 19:03
You've got widebodied rear wings on already haven't you?

The rear looks a lot more subtle than the front, is the standard rear bumper going to fit?

mpampis_
22-08-12, 19:16
Yes Steve it was the wide body but the conversion kit will fit to all models because the rear parts will be all the rear door and all the rear fender like TI-Z

Steve Webb
22-08-12, 19:26
Ahh, I understand now, it fits the the part of the door and rear fender that is common to both the narrow and wide bodied cars.

Excellent!

Really looking forward to seeing the car when its finished and painted!

24-08-12, 13:57
The rears extensions look much wider once they are on. Are they going to have the small vents at the rear? And is any metal from the rear wing\door going to have to be cut out?

mpampis_
24-08-12, 14:10
The rear Extensions are 30mm wider, at the end it is not a vent, but the point witch the extensions will close to be in the same sitting as the stock. I think we will make some modification for not touching the tyre the metal door and wing.

27-08-12, 20:48
Yes Steve. This is going to be. A complete solution ready to fit. In the rear door the skin is going to be up to the window

Thank you all guys. Today I hope rear wing's molds and trunk's mold will be ready so we will start manufacture the first rear parts. Rear doors are getting ready for a full mold just to exist for later because still it is my daily car. Every door is about 35kg. Very heavy

No mate. We place the oem rear doors and trunk because we dont have the parts yet. When we will finish all car we will Start replacing these parts with the new one. I just was hurry to close the car to drive it and to programme my new ecu with my laptop. As I see until now the doors are very heavy. About 30- 35 kg each ( with glass etc) I hope I will be at least 70kg lighter

Steve Webb
02-12-12, 17:44
I can see why you need the new front bumper. That intercooler is never going to fit behind a standard one.
Did you have to fit the intercooler first so you could make sure the new bumper covers everything?

Loving the work as ever.

mpampis_
02-12-12, 18:08
Yes steve, i didn't want to cut the front part for placing the intercooler higher ( i don't know the word in english) so i place it in front. This doesn't matters because we will build the new bump with the intercooler placed

impressions ?
what about efficiency, and "resistance" for air flow ?
how about lag?,
what kind of Turbo are You using ?
is this something out of the shelf, or it is made on request for You?.

i know a lot of questins :D

mpampis_
04-12-12, 09:12
Haha. Its ok about question. I have a chineese T3/T4 stage 3 wheel .64 ar from xspower. I have no lag in case with my old intercooler but in the same settings in boost controler i have 0.2 bar boost less. Ex at 60% to my dsbc boost controller i had 1.7 bar boost and with this intercooler o have 1.51 bar. I will buy a gt35r now so i will fill this intercooler better. I bought the intercooler from www.toyosports.co.uk for about 100 euros. :)

Steve Webb
04-12-12, 10:20
How thick is the new intercooler? Is it thicker than the old one.

Also did you manage to take any temperature measurements to compare between the old an new intercoolers?

Suzumushi
04-12-12, 10:59

Also did you manage to take any temperature measurements to compare between the old an new intercoolers?

it's really strange that almost no one makes single side (inlet/outlet) IC with downflow design, something similar to daltaparts design,
so there will be not much piping, and a lot less turbo lag...

by the way heve You considered using EVO9 turbo ?
heard much opinions about very very fast spooling, and suitable power ratios.


regards

WS

mpampis_
04-12-12, 11:31
It is 10mm thicker than the old one. The new one is 76mm thick. I hear a lot for evo's turbo but i have to change the exhaust manifold too. The second thing is that with evo's turbo i can't go to 600 or more hp. Steve i can measure the air temperature with my RP-LAB programmable ecu but now here we have 6 degrees celcium and i can't compare with previous measurments. With my old intercooler with 17 degrees celcium at 1.7 bar boost i had 39 degrees inlet air at 7000 rpm so i have to compare with same conditions

22-12-12, 19:49
I will build the second one Steve. We build it with parts from the stock bumper. Piece by piece and it is about 50mm thicker and of course wider so a lot of work. Same filosophie for the rear bumper too. We build bumpers and sideskirts exactly as the second photo you uploaded. 100% replica for the bumpers.

mpampis_
22-12-12, 19:54
I would like to ask you all if you know how to find the gta spoiler. I'm asking that because it is hard to wait to manufacture this from zero.

Xti
23-12-12, 16:31
The GTA bumpers are the best from my side too.

Not sure were to look for a GTA original front bumper as they are so rare, even replicas would be very hard to find and wouldn't be cheap either...

As for the rear one, are you after the one in the 2 pics below ?

PS: Are the bumpers (F/R) you want to build going to fit the 155 WB too or just the ones with GTA kit you already have? Thanks.

Cris

mpampis_
23-12-12, 17:27
Hi Cris, i don't search about bumpers because we produce these right now. I'm searching for the spoiler on the trunk (maybe the correct word is not spoiler) if i don't find we will manufacture this too. The bumpers we are making for my project are about 80mm wider so they will look better with wide fenders

Steve Webb
23-12-12, 18:27
Is it this spoiler you are after:


http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3369/4638865239_42a7de0841.jpg

or this one?


http://img261.imageshack.us/img261/5747/0alfa155tiz.jpg

I think the second one is more subtle, from a Ti-z , I think Subaru used something similar. The first one is the correct GTA spoiler, but looks a little too universal.

23-12-12, 18:37
Yes Steve. The first one with double wings

I have a pair of DTM spoilers you can borrow to make moulds if you want. I can have them back when the kit is being send to denmark :)

peter holst
27-01-13, 15:15
not spoilers - but skirts

english is not my best :)

mpampis_
27-01-13, 16:44
Well good news finally! At the end of the week we are 99% sure that all the parts will be ready for painting. The hole project costs me a lot of time and of course i got tired to wait almost 6 months. You will have the results at the end of the week.
Peter could you send me a photo of the skirts please? Who knows, maybe we could make something more close to the reality because side skirts were very difficult

Steve Webb
27-01-13, 18:24
Thats really great news, looking forward to seeing it all bolted together and painted.

I will take a picture in the week - the skirts are from an DTM alfa form 1993 or 1994 so they a close to the org GTA

Now that is great, it sits so close to the original but at the same time it is such a good and discreet tunning/styling finish . Excelent work you're doing with it!!! I've mixed words preety bad here but you know what I meant...:clap:

Too bad for me it will not work with the widebody. Maybe it will do fine for another 155 Q4 GTA project...:unsure:

Why will not work with WB ?
all the panels, from fenders, (fornt rear, rear doors, bumpers front and rear, boot?) are changed.....
so it should be easy swap.. if the parts will be available :)
i'm also waiting for this project to finish :hyper: and be able to meaby order these parts :D:D:D

mpampis_
31-01-13, 09:58
Thank you mate. As i see with my eyes everything is possible. The only difficult job is the first car that you build it from zero. So it is possible to make these bumper to fit to the stock wide body Q4. It is enough to find a good person with "fine hands" to transform it :)

I don't know yet because i have some other modification to do too. All the parts are ready today and we will make moulds to have them ready for copies. In the next week we will paint them and you will see it ready.

mpampis_
05-02-13, 10:21
We have already moulds of the rear doors Peter. We will make rear doors in fiberglass too. The only parts we don't make moulds are the front doors... That means that we can make a full car in fiber glass :) :) :)

peter holst
05-02-13, 12:05

What jack said

Steve Webb
25-02-13, 10:53
Love the way that bumper changes the way the rear of the car looks. Much less bulky and more meaningful.

I agree though, wait for a sunny day (you've had a bit of rain where you are recently haven't you?) and do a proper photo shoot. Can't wait to see some hi-res pics of the finished car.

dukesracing
25-02-13, 11:09
after many rainy days, we finally finish this project! it was very difficult to make this bodykit only by photos! some details we are finishing today and photoshooting is close. Steve i will make you an offer for the parts just for berlinasportivo.

have a nice day
