Hello all,
Starting a project here as I will soon be a fairly regular member due to the nature of my setup. I have an unconventional build layout that is using 2 x Honda J35Z2 V6's transversely mounted in a mid engined car. For the last few years I have been thrashing out the mechanical detail (the build log is here - https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/top ... 827105&i=0) and am now at the point of applying for a 4B build authority from the LVVTA here in NZ.
Over the next few years I will be constructing an engine testbed (not a dyno unfortunately) and getting the J35 running without load. Initially the exoframe testmule will use 2 speeduinos - each controlling its own standard production engine - but that drivable test mule is still a couple of years away due to paycheck limitations! So gives me plenty of time to get my head around the electronics side.
I have not seen anyone setup the J35 yet, so will be posting all my learnings here.
Longterm goal is to pick up enough tuning skills to regrind the base circle of the stock cams and increase the rev limit and push the top end on these wheezy motors - short term is to just get the test motor up and running clean and revving happily. Off to RTFM a few times before asking any FAQ's.
Cheers,
Marcus.
