Hippocampus 3 Racing

The team spent a huge human and material resources, but also the K20A engine located Familia frame, why you must use K20A engine? Believe also in Hong Kong and Macao for K20A visibility was almost hundred percent, modified maintenance technology is mature, rich reserves of temporary replacement of parts can be considered a very good reason; the addition, the emphasis is on endurance who laughs last, three hours match, stability is very critical, and Honda's high-revving engine red top, output of more than shocking, through stability testing depot for 3 hours of intense operation, as long as keep up the cooling, lubrication, excluding driver error external operations, basically does not appear too serious failure. Although K20A engine may not have the highest potential for conversion, but the original state already has a quite high combat weapons. Renault megane turbocharger

Under the red roof temptation, the team the headache of how to successfully move the K20A engine nacelle 3 a. Engine pin must remake, originally K20A engine has four feet, are fixed in Honda's two main frame rails, and front and rear sub-frame; hippocampus steel sub-frame 3 is an open form, quadrilateral missing one side, so the four engine K20A foot also missing one connection point. Compared to a few years ago, and now Chinese car modification techniques, both in terms of engineering design capability or homemade parts, have made great progress, design and production of engine feet, is a very basic technology of. A lot of domestic international racing group race example, allows you to modify the engine in under foot, the team has a center of gravity of the position of the car and rearrange engine placement. Win or relevant experience of the team, also used the same approach, the K20A engine first into the engine compartment, roughly estimated that a good direction, drive shaft, vacuum booster pump and other parts of the original frame that comes with the position, and then calculate the engine as a whole by force and stress on the frame, to design the engine feet.

In general, the engine into the engine compartment is not difficult, audi s3 1.8 turbocharger the difficulty is "pass." Not just power transmission, as well as the direction of the transmission oil, coolant cooling circuit, transfer engine control signal, the original vehicle electronic systems heritage and so on. To begin with it from the drive shaft drive shaft's role is to deliver the power transmission to the wheels Hub, relies on the splined shaft ends to transmit torque. The depot will be different in different spline design, diameter, number of keys flowers, spline-sectional shape, etc., so that the drive shaft between the different depots, universal possibility is very low. In addition, different transmission, different wheelbase also makes the length of the drive axle, almost belongs to the "car only" virtually no commonality at all. Therefore, the need to re-create the drive shaft, spline parameters according to the transmission end and the wheel-side spline parameters, re-produced a special drive axle. Honda Civic Type R and the hippocampus 3 are based on hydraulic power and hydraulic booster pump K20A happens, the oil coincides with the hippocampus 3 extremely consistent. Therefore, this part of the transmission in the direction of the oil, not because of oil, the oil does not match the steering system to replace the entire group, as long as the oil pump in accordance with the direction of the position, redesigned tubing to walk, customized tubing connected to the oil pump and hydraulic machine on it.
