B6t

Shaggy · 11-05-2005, 08:46 AM

Hi All,

Can anyone tell me if the B6T will fit in a 98 BA? Im sure I have seen pics somewhere of a B6T in a BA?

Cheers guys

Ben

Yeah a think a guy in Holland did it, check out the forced induction thread, it's not that far back...

OMG dont do it nightmare conversion. please dont!

Nate · 11-05-2005, 12:18 PM

the BPT is a dircet bolt in ... DIRECT ... no mods needed to fit the bugger (cept getting the intercooler out the front ... have to do that with a b6t anyway) it is newer and makes more power than a B6T ... so why?

pr1mo · 11-05-2005, 12:54 PM

nothing off a b6t is compatible with the BA enginebay they put out about the same as the 1.8na anyway dont they???

chicaboo · 11-05-2005, 01:04 PM

100kW stock vs 92kW

skippy · 11-05-2005, 01:14 PM

Is a BPT 100KW stock?

pr1mo · 11-05-2005, 01:18 PM

nah a B6T. your be better off bolting an exaust system onto your NA 1.8

And another drawback with the b6T is the crankshaft keyway problem,id be going with the BPT aswell mate,less hassel!

B6T is just old and nasty. They have heaps of wires and hoses and don't run nearly as nice and smooth as the BPT....also they lack the torque. Having said that I have a BPT in my car which had a b6t in it before. Mounting was almost exactly the same so its can't be that hard (still not as easy as the BPT).

Do yourslef a favour (for the long run) and stick with BPT.

cheers guys. Im not doing the B6T, a friend might be able to get a good deal on one. I got my BPT coming over on the boat from Japan :d Be here in 5 weeks

Just to let you know BPT's get the cranknose keyway problem too.
Happened to me had to buy a new crank & pulley and have the
bottom end rebuilt thats why the engine has been out of my car
for the last month.

Rupewrecht · 11-05-2005, 08:15 PM

what exactly is the "cranknose keyway problem" and what causes it?

BigMal · 11-05-2005, 08:34 PM

On the end of the crank at the pulley end there is a raised section that makes
the end of the crank look at little like a key. The pulley slides onto this so that
it doesn't spin around. This keyway is not strong/large enough and sometimes
it will break allowing the pulley to stay stationary whilst the crank spins. Obviously
as the crank spins the leftover keyway and pulley grinds into it making that end
of the crank useless as pulleys dont come oversized so you can mill the crank down.
A stationary pulley means no alternator, no cams which means no dizzy which all
up means no go

Toyboy · 11-05-2005, 09:25 PM

Yeah i heard that too mal but its more common with the B6T motor.
