thats right the vf35 isnt ball bearing like the td04 so the same banjo can be used, it uses devided thrust bearings. they have a reputation of been a strong turbo. he means the td04l is better on a engine with the stock inlet still, but if you have a good inlet the vf28 is better as the race tech inlet on this car helps the turbo spool quicker.

a bit of bad luck there dude. jap coilovers are not for uk roads there just far too stiff.

nice one. have you got one showing boost and arf? when are you getting full boost? my vf 35 is spooling so easily on my 5e

yeah hes got that dirty great let weighing the front end down, that dvd ok for ya mate?

i think my helix paddle is great, not too stiff at all. ive yet to run much power through it yet to put it through its paces.

ive added a few more. theres more to come yet maybe get them done later on. all the vf turbos are a straight swap (except the twin scroll one) for a td04 they just need rotated which its loads easier to do on the vf's instead of the td ones. if you use a roller bearing one you need the banjo bolt with the small oil in to restrict the oil, if its a journal bearing you use a banjo with a big hole in it.

im uploading some of them now, its going to take a while so think im gunna have a kip. not sure if this will work or not theres more to come later!

I will try and get some of the vids uploaded later today guys. Was a good afternoon just a shame the weather couldnt hold out for a bit longer. I think carl and his gt have done great for their first time up the strip. The car was full fat too, had parcel shelf, spare wheel, ect all left in. Plus the big lad him self haha. Im sure theres still room to shave a bit off the times with a little more traction.

borp borp!!! if i hadnt been at work yesterday it would be have all sorted by dinner time no probs! haha

I think your been a bit modest there john! I doubt your time will be broken any time soon by another 4wd.

If you can be arsed theres a place in whitehaven that does powder coating mate. Do a decent job and prices are ok. Prob a bit far for ya tho?

haha, nice weather and that though im sure he will be through early on. yeah gunna have a ratch about see what looks good. gunna try and find something that doesnt need loads of messing about with hopefully, no point making things difficult.

yeah hes got one of those helicoil insert things i seen it last time i was there. i hope he can sort it out finally and there no more messing about for ya. you have been lucky to fit it in at short notice because i bet hes really busy this week with kirkbride been on this weekend! i would get through nice and early for him. you better get your bill paid too lol. im on back shifts until the weekend mate, if i get chance (if i get up at a decent time) im gunna change the oil and filter tomorrow morning so its ready for the next running in. im gunna drop that inlet off with mark soon so he can port and polish it all inside, he can sort me a throttle body out too if i want. he said he can even bore them out and make new brass butterflys if i want. i might go ratch through the scrap yard with a tape measure and see what i can find.

looks like a shed does it! haha its just the bumpers really. Thats shit that mate, dunno how the threads have stripped though maybe been over tightened, only need nipped up on alloy stuff. if you want give me the inlet and i can get mark at work to tap it out and re thread it for ya, wont be a prob for him. need it sorted for sat! peter said your going to jdm tomorrow?? Secret big turbo ehh, its not even ran in and your wanting a bigger turbo on it already! gunna keep the vf35 dude.

just bought it on my way home from work. not a bad little write up and there isnt even any mistakes in it lol. need to get my finger out with getting the gt kit sprayed up and fitted though, it looks poo in the pics. Its got the aero rear spats and gt spoiler on it now.

I think about a year ago i sent them an email asking if they would be interested in putting it in once it was finished, as i was only planning on running the forged 4e at first so i thought the car was only needing mapped, a few bits sprayed, wheels and then it would be about sorted back then. Not much point putting it in till its finished. I will have to go get the mag after work 2nite. Thanks for lettin me know guys. I've got just over a hundred miles on it now and its running great, the turbo spools so easy! Gunna drop the oil again and start clocking the miles up

has it??? dunno how im sure ive not sent anything too them as its no where near finished!

i think porting the wastegate could help. or get a td04l

be good if you could make the sat dude get a few starlets there. Ive got 100 miles put on the car now. I had a nice drive past keswick and back. got pulled in it on the first day of it been all legal too ffs.

no way anyone will have one of these spare! toyota will be your only chance.

not much going on here i had a quick search i think they went bankrupt a few years ago

ahhh no saturday mate!! you havnt got the power to burn ya clutch out! haha yeah no point if its not mapped.

good lad daz!!

im not a pic whore like you sparks lol. last time it was pretty quiet and i easily sneaked 20 runs in lol, could have got loads more too. with it been the first one of the year it should be pretty good!

i would maybe give the racetech a miss though, carls had loads of bother with the tps on his. hopefully get it sorted this week though! yeah get cracking with it!! you have my number dont ya if you wanna give me a ring about it. see if anyone else wants to pop down be cool if a couple of starlets turned up!
