It was 197 on ct9 and yeah tuner had a few more bhp left to squeeze out but he left it at that as it was a safe figure and not straining anything can't remember exact set up think it was

Rrfpr

Hks fcd

Apexi safc

Apexi avcr

Decat

Japspeed exhaust

zisco manifold externally gated

Hks mushroom filter

Think that was it

Completely depends on the tuner/tune it gives you a lot more settings to play with. You can only trim fuel down on it if I remember rightly.

So you have you rr fpr set a little higher than usual. ( the tuner would set it so it runs slightly rich through out rev range ) then they trim the fuel back down to the right mixture through out the rev range to get it spot on and squeeze every last bit of power/efficiency

It's to fine tune your fueling through the rev range on a dyno

It's like a piggy back ecu

 

In all honesty I think that was all down to poor parts and budget builds and driven very hard on daily basis.

Cus that happened all before the setup down engine tuner.

Unfortunatly it went pop for 3rd time just after i brought it.

But touch wood holding up sinse I've had it done :-D

 

Ull have to let us know what ak are like. 

Cus im looking for a session in next month or so...

Would love to go td or race tech but its the effort and cost  going up there.

All the parts were from Toyota also ... :s pistons rings gasket sets bearings etc :s

Yeh was never machined on the rebuilds kept blowing same piston.

 When stripped it bore was quite worn.

So had new pistons and all the block machined to match and head skimmed and cleaned.

And i aint had prob sinse...

So i wouldnt put it down to the map..

 

Might give ak a ring soon and get a price

Was machined on each build I had done. Bottom end skimmed as well as head each time and bores done.

Jammy cunt

How much u pay a month for that

Beauty yeah I'll be in process of kitting it out main thing is as long as I can fit my glanza and my Vxr in ill b happy anything else will b a bonus

Yeah cool I've got a pritty good idea of how I want it just looking for other ideas tho and just curious to see how everyone else manages with there working on there motors

Well I did a search and didn't find any threads already open.

I'm going to be building my own garage over the next couple months and I know what I've got planned out its 5m wide by 7m long. Should be just enough room for my astra vxr to park in and the glanza in there to work on also.

I've bought a shell and engine and plan on building a forged glanza over the next 12/16months

So yeah basically just wondering

If you guys have any pics of your garage set ups at home or what ever

I had to notch my sandwich plate when I fitted it. And your right it did look gash

If you need the housing from the one I got I'll change it over with ya if it helps

Haha I like it I anticipate from now to getting motor back on road to take a year I'm in no hurry and have lots planned

Right then everyone I have rebuilt an engine before myself with a bit of help from a mate well actually rebuilt it twice but anyway.

I used to have a glanza and regret selling it. Anyway been and got hold of a rolling shell and an engine and I'm gonna take my time over it and build a forged engine and few other goodies etc I'll start a progress thread once some proper movement on the project takes place.

In the mean time has anyone got any tips or advice for the build that you'd like to share with me ?

160 on dials gps stated 147 and chap with flashy lights in a skoda said he was doing 145 and I was still pulling away.

Water pump and oil pump won't be a lot. I've priced mine all up and it's comming to less than that

Pistons rods gasket and head bolts 1100 machining block won't be a lot. I say save a couple hundred quid and forge it my man.

I'm only winding ya up bud. I know how loud it is *sigh*

How I miss it swap for my vxr ?

Why doesn't it do it justice Lewis?

I'm located in North Devon so obviously cars in like Newcastle etc will be too far but all things considered.

Looking for a glanza rolling shell any colour but red. So yeah what you got

u removed power steering?

haha thats my mate vince who made them videos he said that theres not alot in it between his k20 civic and missys nsx

ive got one andyeah there brilliant especially 4 the money

used to b on every other month up there really miss that now was good used to go everytime it was on pritty much

id love somthing like that actuator for his exhaust i think thats shit hot would sound good i recon. might look into getting somthing like that fabricated.
