Anyone know where in the US i can send my block to to get Jun engine liners/sleaves intalled? Somewhere with a torque plate as well.

thanks

I'm sure JWT could to it. Also, Sunbelt over in Georgia could probably do it.... BUT, dunno if they would as they deal a lot with race motors and would have to make time to work on outside stuff. Sunbelt is suppose to be one of the best and they've worked on Nissan's before.

If you have the resources do it your self. have a torqueplate made from a headgasket and bolt as much to the block as possible (oil pan , water pump, etc......) and bore away leaving room to hone (.002") i may attempt this in school where we have all the machinery.

But I'm sure they would have no interest in installing JUN liners. :p

The only reason why i chose Jun liners were the price 40,000 yen for 4 liners....USD$333 at that price you cant not convince yourself to get them! Get them in the 1mm over bore and you have a poor mans "stroker" (i know it increases the bore not stroke). I was looking for someone reputable with a torque plate to do it. Why would JWT have a problem with doing it with Jun liners?

I hate to tell you this now, but you wasted your money. You can bore the SR20 1mm over without resleaving. I had mine done by JWT with their torque plate.

Are you kidding? JUN is a competitor. I highly doubt they would install anything made by JUN. They have more than enough business dealing with their own products.

im not such a newbie to these motors so i know you can over bore it 1mm without the sleaves. My main point in adding the sleaves is to make a bullet proof motor. I know that the stock block and rods can handle what im going to throw at it but what if shit happens? When shit happens shit breaks i am only trying to minimize the shit breaking. BTW Have you seen a pulsars engine bay? Have you seen a GTi-R's motor and transaxle taken out? Then you must know that no one wants to go though this again.

Ohh well the search continues for a place with a torque plate.
