hey flashman i want your 4af! , looks crazy. i would like to hear the details about the project and what is need to make the project, parts etc. i can't find the post of where you got the side drafts from. cuz i was thinking of doing that to my 4af also. since it looks chaeper than a 20 valve. and probably sounds also louder, also some power rating cuz, my ae92 is automatic cuz i don't wanna blow out the tranny.

He replaced his stock carb with side draft carbs.

Nice work man, how does it run?

Flashmn · 09-15-2003, 10:22 PM

Runs pretty wickedly, theres about 5cm of gaspedal travel so launching smoothly is difficult. The response is quite something, and it really picks up speed.

is it still carburated or is it converted to fuel injection now?

edit: n/m sidedraft carbs.....im blind

Plus he's got the full custom mandrel-bent exhaust on the other side of things... shit Flashm put some DRs on that thing and take it to the 1/4 mile track!

PS why do you only have 5cm of gas-pedal travel??
Something to do with hooking up the throttle cable to the four-carb set-up I suppose, but couldn't you get a longer cable?

No its not the length, its the linkage on the keihins is designed for a motorcycle grip throttle. Soooo, the movement of that is smaller than the stock movement of the pedal, so thats the problem.
