Andy's 'IPRA' Coupe

[charged]

jeez those quad trumpets have some length, very similar to the throttles on the brother 3s engine, we arent sure if the will fit under the Ke20 bonnet though



or the pipes, when the engine gets fitted, we may have some extractors to sell

[Andy San]

it's a frazer sump pan, I bought it off one of the other ip guys on another forum. The only thing that doesn't line up too good is at the front where the oil pump is, can I use an earlier 3s pump without all the oil galleries in it that the beams has for the oil filter at the bottom?

What pump/tank did you buy?

[Andy San]

haha I just sat some weber trumpets in the throttles so it looked the part, will probably run shorter trumpets when I actually get some.

Peterson 3 stage pump and a canton tank
not sure if an earlier stock oil pump housing would fit yours I don't see why it wouldn't.. I would have an old one I'm not using that you could possibly have if it hasn't been thrown out

What times did you get down to today mate ? I was going to come over again today but ran out of time when packing up the car

[Andy San]

Didn't go any faster, stuffed up my hot lap in the first session, then the power wire for the car fell off and it cut out. And then I lost another roll pin for the selector fork so I didn't have first or second gear, then we push started it in 3rd down the pit lane for the last session, I got half a warmup lap in and they canned it because some dude in an evo hit the wall, but they did give us one session right at the end of the day which was good.

So all in all I had a pretty crap weekend reliability wise, broke 2 gearboxes. Pumped about 10 liters of oil out of the motor and didn't really string enough laps together to go any faster. But the track is awesome to drive, would like to go back with some more power to keep up with stuff down the front straight.

thats got to suck dude, but the car looks and sounds tough on track dude, and atleast you didn't finish last haha

[joeschmo_57]

It may have been said before, but what are you going to do with the 4a once the Beams is in?

[s14seriesII]

Bit of bad luck there !
Hopefully next year I'll drive my 86 up aswell should nearly be finished by then lol
