Any decent coilovers, bought the car with some eBay specials on haha want something a little bit better, what you got people?!

Well I'm going to take it to mike at TD but I want to install it all but wipe that map so the car will run the standard map from its ecu

Sorted this but need to know if its possible to reset the emanage ultimate? It has a map already on it for another car so wondering if I can reset it?

Thanks

I'm trying to install the software onto my laptop but I've read that it can't be used on windows vista is this true? Will it work on any later windows or is it only XP and earlier?

Cheers guys

Ct9 at about 0.8 bar

Ok so I have a 225lph fuel pump and APR, on a forged 4e, what sort of pressure should I be running?

Need to know soon don't fuck shit up! Haha

He also need oil and water lines + banjo bolts

A mate needs some TD04 bits

Manifold

Downpipe

Civic half radiator

He wants second hand to keep costs down but no eBay crap

Thanks

The bigger pump should be ok for what I'm looking for as the car will still be my daily and yeah I will send it to TD to get it mapped

Got the car up and running tonight, idle is a bit rough because of the cams but I can live with that for now,

Will be getting fitted tonight hopefully

its personal choice really,

I think that they make these turbos with water and oil lines so they want us to use them for a reason,

least we can do is use them seems a bit crazy not to

I agree, plus it means more shiny bits of pipe under my bonnet ;) haha

Ok cheers pal, ill be adding it to my build thread when I get the parts

I have been looking into a td05 set up as I already have a td05 twin scroll on my civic so could issue bits from that kit, but money is tight at the moment

I have a 225lph fuel pump and adjustable fpr so they would help with running a bigger turbo and a Greddy emanage ultimate to help sort it all out

If I got say a td04 would it just be a case of getting a manifold and exhaust and bolting it on with the current set up I have?

I have a stage 2 fully forged engine built by TD running the standard ct9 turbo, what boost would people recommend running? think it's running about 0.8 bar at the moment

Ok so I picked the knew engine up on Saturday, TD stage 2 forged, with cruise cams. And got it mounted in last night, just needs plumbing in tonight

I also got a few extra goodies to fit,

Adjustable FPR

225lph fuel pump

Bailey bov

Greddy Emanage Ultimate

, I will post some pictures when I'm home from work

Ok so this is my first starlet and I was going to keep it as it was when I bought it..... But I think we all know that never lasts long haha

This is the car when I got it

But pretty soon I got bored of it and was looking into forged engines and td04 kits

And then one fateful evening (8 hours before I set off for USC at Santa pod) the engine decided it didn't want to work any more.

So I got the car towed home by a mate and after we got back from USC we set about finding the problem

Couldn't find anything on the face of things e.g engine was timed, oil was a bit thick but seamed ok ect.

We then decided we would just take the engine out and strip it.

Ok so that was the engine out and then we started to strip it....we didn't have an engine stand at the start haha

This what we found when we took the head off...

Who can see the problem here? Haha

Next we took the sump off to find a lovely mix of things

Little end, most of a con rod and bits of bearings

The rest of a rod and a shattered piston

the crank (the culprit)

We believe that due to an oil leak/ oil pump that there wasn't enough oil pressure to get oil to this end of the crank so it's got dry, expanded and shattered everything around it

There is also a large chuck missing from the bottom of the cylinder, can't really see it in the picture

ok so after finding all this mess I decided to just find an already built engine and go from there

Will update again once I pick the new engine up tomorrow

A few years ago there was a gt turbo near where I live with a Perspex cover over where the bonnet scoop should be

Anybody know if these are available for Glanza V's and if so where can I get one?

Yeah, the block and tack we used were a friends dads (tractor mechanic) so we knew that would hold and then the roof support is a huge steel reinforced girder so we knew it would be strong enough, will use a crane to put the new engine in though

I took mine out the top without a crane, just used long bit of chain and a big RSJ. Haha

Gutted I couldn't make it in my Glanza engine blew up on the Thursday night :'( still got to go down with everyone from Kendal though. Was in front of 3 Glanzas at the gates black white and silver

That's handy I'm in south Cumbria, is the engine run in or anything and what will it come with?

Where abouts are you at hawwy?

Does anybody know how the tuning developement rebuild works? Do I send my engine to them to build it or do they take mine and give me one they have already rebuilt or what?

I'm still shopping round for a forged engine but I'm heading towards TD

Cheers mate
