Yup. That's what they came with and an M10 wouldn't fit through the holes.

Darton MID Wet Sleeves & JapSpeed Adjustable Rear Toe Arms

Post by NafemanNathan » Wed Mar 04, 2015 11:32 pm

Of course I only have newly acquired parts to report, but you already knew that :lol: ...

First off, JapSpeed Adjustable Rear Toe Arms. I'm not normally a fan of JapSpeed stuff, but these are well made...

I stumbled on a guy selling several H22a parts on Pistonheads, so picked up a brand new Valve Cover Seal Kit, including the Plug Seals...

Image

And a brand new Kaizenspeed Manual Tensioner...

And now one of the components that's going to allow me to eventually build myself an NA monster (Hopefully)...

Well I certainly can't find the time! That's why I have so many piles of wasted quality car parts! :lol:

Meh, they're rusty.
I think you should refuse to pay for them and give them away to someone more deserving...

Custom CP Pistons. At the minute I'm looking at 26.5mm comp height (Standard are 31mm) with a 10cc dome (Same as Mahle 11.5:1 pistons). That's with no skim/decking, so I'll have to check and configure that, but I can probably make up whatever discrepancies with the head gasket. I haven't decided on the bore yet (Going to consult with the oracle at some point) but 87.0 to 90.0 combined with the 100mm stroke crank I've got coming will see me between 13.5:1 and 14.25:1 (2378cc and 2545cc) 8)
