So tempted to break this car back to stock then sell the stock car 🙄👀

Coilovers fitted, I've not gone that low and they're catching on the front arch lining a lot 😂 It's not that low I think it's just because the linings are ruined, tempted to just rip them out?

Tuning developments doing a package for the Emage blue fitting mad mapping for £550

-2 good for a fast road setup. Don't want to chew through tyres 😂 How about caster? Yeah looking at putting money into breaks and more suspension mods this year

Also if anyone has any advice on geometry set ups could you let me know, don't know a massive amount on alignment setups, dampening and tyre pressure so any help appreciated! Currently just got BC's and that's all really, no panhard rod or anything yet

Ah fair enough! Yeah I've seen other people's results, idrees proved that you just don't need a TD04 on stock internals haha! I think it makes pretty good power considering I'm running less boost than everyone else haha. You'll have to let me know what yours makes

Price wise it's the same as the TD04 all the same mods need to be done just with a different turbo. Don't think it's much more for the topmount, worth it though!

Yeah exactly thats what I'm thinking mate. Seems the only way to get fun out of the TD turbos is to be forged. Ah i see i probably have photos of your car on my laptop tbh haha. Well maybe sometime soon we can do some sort of starlet meet it needs to happen feels as though not much happens with this club anymore compared to a couple of years ago. Thanks very much buddy I'm trying to do it right don't want to do the usual and rip the interior to shreds I want to do it tastefully. I can see you're sort of going the same route. Not sure how far lincolnshire is buddy but maybe even a meet half way for a cruise and to chat starlet shit would be good!

I could have gone for a bottom mount turbo kit to further reduce lag but top mount setups look the best haha! That's the way to do it mate, mines still got the interior it's just false floored instead of the rear seats. Send me over a PM mate, sure we could get something organised

Ah I see mate can't believe they were out of stock for so long that's mental! 😂 But like you say it may come in handy in a few years time. I'm definitely interested in the tf035 where was it you got yours from? I don't plan on going forged for a while either so seems perfect if it's suited for stock internals and minimal lag is always a bonus! 😄 Where is it you live mate? Where you at japfest by any chance or do you plan on going next year? Would be nice to see the car and the TF see what it feels like 😊

That's the thing, if your not planning on going forged anytime soon the TF is perfect, then swap it for a bigger TD series turbo when going forged! I was at japfest this year, always seems to be in the middle of my exams 😂 I'm in Lincolnshire mate! Yeah it'd be nice to get a little starlet meet set up. Yours looks super clean mate 👌

Lowering springs put more stress on the shocks so if they're on there way out the extra stress will kill them off

Ah I see mate well for the money I guess it's a toss up between which is built better. I've always had my eyes on the meisters but there roughly the same price so I think I might look into the bc's. Stunning build mate by the way really interested in this tf035 route aswell seems like a good middle ground between ct9 and td04l. Keep up the good work buddy the cars stunning 😊

To be honest I'd planned on going for the miesters but they were out of stock for a few months so went for the BC's. Hopefully the car will be more of a toy in 2/3 years so the BC's being slightly stiffer may come in useful! I can't recommend the TF enough to be honest. All the TD04 boys might get on my back but I think it's the best suited turbo for stock internals. It'll push to 230bhp at 1bar I'd expect so on the edge of the stock engine potential with less lag than the TD04

Lovely looking car dude, and great power for the boost!

What's the serial code on your TF035 out of interest, would you mind checking please?

And what ECU are you running?

Cheers mate! The serial code has been taken off the turbo, not too sure why haha. Just running EMU.

Haha I would do but girlfriend has joint problems so that would be abit rude 😂 Right I see is that the springs that have come on the coilovers? Really interested to know what they're like. How much where they all in by the way buddy out of interest? 😊

Ah that's fair then buddy! I've gone for the 5kg front and 4kg rears, same Spring rate as miesters. £700 all in, ordered mine from ID-works but tuning developments sell them too.

If you want to go as cheap as possible go for some lowering springs mate

Tell the passengers they can walk if it's a bit bumpy 😂 I've gone with slightly softer springs and I'll probably run them fairly soft as its my daily again. I'll let you know what I think to them qhen they're on and all set up 😊

Little delivery came today and they look like impressive bits of kit!

Think it must be the wiring in the EMB and I don't really know what I'm looking at with it. The throttle body sensor has been suggested to be at fault, is it worth getting a new one of them to try Before I get it trailered to tuning developments 🙄

Scrap that last post it's not sorted! I've since changed the MAP sensor with no luck so I'm not sure what else I can do really

Thought it was the drivers side that you needed mate?😂

The plastic that goes around the indicators and ignition barrel. I guess you could class is as column surround. I need the 96spec one (4 spoke). Cheers

Bump

Ya should put this in the how much it's worth Thread with pics mate is the jam ECU for ep91 ? Manual ? All depends on condition as you know man id say

Zisco and turbo 200-250

Jam ECU ? 300 350

Blitz decat 80 -100

That's just going on random prices I seen lol probably a mile off on each but just throwing it out there for ya lol surely someone will know better prices for ya. Did you consider adapter plate and keep your manifold and ECU ?

I'd agree with this really. Maybe £400/£450 for the ECU

Cheers mate 😊

Still after a passenger side wind deflector!

Sent me a price posted mate please! Would have bought them all together if I'd known I needed it
