  1. Jus curious....did u go manual to accomodate the air filter?
  2. Do u still have the power steering setup on the engine?
  3. I think boost cut is at 13 psi....somebody correct me if i'm wrong
  4. I dont like 2 spoke steering wheels but i'd go for that one. Mental seats. U goin front mount intercooler with the new turbo setup, right?
  5. She's up & running. Tested her today. Car was actually fitted up back over a week ago but box was dropped back out as a strange sound was heard coming from the gearbox area. Two possible suspects were corrected & everything put back up. Tested her on the rd today & she's smooth as a whistle. Adjusted the Meth "start injection" point from 0.2 Bar (2.94 psi) up to 0.4 Bar (5.8 Psi) as she is tuned for 0.8 Bar (12 psi). This is indicated by the remote LED installed beside the boost gauge. Car never ceases to amaze me how fast the boost gauge needle rises, testament that a 5E with a TD04 is an excellent combination. Next? Road tune the Greddy Blue properly (now that the clutch isnt slipping & i have the correct size Meth nozzle). Next? Either compete at the next drag meet or just go hard & install the next turbo that i have. The exhaust system needs some work (addition of hangers, installation of two V-Bands & re-fabricating the section of the pipe that goes over the rear axle) but if i am to do this, then it makes sense to change the turbo at the same time. Will decide.
  6. nice changes
  7. Love this sooooo much. Think u should have stuck with the green rims tho....meh
  8. fair enough. Also, rotate those darn injectors, re-route the wireloom behind the manifold & get rid of that ugly lookin wireloom housing (plastic piece) that goes between the tappets cover & the fuel rail. Much cleaner look. Jus sayin. That gold tho...
  9. Glad its only that....that o-ring always fails over time
  10. Bet it was the battery being very weak......was it?
  11. Someone once told me to place it above. I questioned why but he couldnt remember diddly............Glad that i got a logical explanation for this now

  14. So the gearbox was taken out leavin this big hole in the engine bay The clutch, flywheel & pressure plate were inspected. No detrimental wear was seen. The old layed out beside the new [shutup], no, the replacements. Toothbrush, degreaser, garden hose led to this.... . Throwout-bearing has already been changed, rear crank seal changed (without taking out the retainer), clutch slave cylinder cleaned & re-greased. rack end boots are to be changed as well as the front rotors and i just need some time now to reinstall the gearbox......
