yep should give mini valver chance to stretch the vf28's legs!!

hang on isnt your dad doing it all???...........

years ago i tried to get quaiffe to make a part up and they were crap to deal with. i even sent them the part i wanted modified and i just got the impression unless theres a big market for something there not interested, which is understandable really, so i would be surprised if they would make us a diff up.

i wish i knew all this before i put mine back together! haha oh well maybe sort the box out next winter.

yep thats what i ment, great pic there.

by collar bit do you mean the valve seat that sits in the bottom of the wastegate where the flange is? without that boost will just pass straight through the wastegate and out the screamer.

this isnt going on a subaru though is it. im sure ted in ireland got 312 atf from a 35 and i remember mcloud getting 309bhp 1.5 bar with a vf34 using 265 cams both on a 4e. i have a vf35 my self on my 5e and i did alot of searching and reading up on them before i bought it. i think the garret turbos would be a better platform to use but if you insist on staying with the subaru flanged ones those scooby clinc ones have been getting great results (on subarus though, ive not seen any one a starlet yet.)

ive never seen a vf34 get anywhere near 400bhp! i think around 320 and there maxed out.

i couldnt say tbh. you would be better getting some advice from people who have actually ran these turbos. maybe state what your hoping to get out of the car? engine spec, any head work? the biggest turbo ive ran was the td05h16g from an evo and only at a bar on a stock 4e. ive got a vf35 on a 5e now though but not on the road yet.

yes they are have the same flanges so long as they are single scroll turbos. twin scolls use different housings.

ive never heard of anyone running one. theres better turbos out there though. if you must stick with the subaru flanged ones check out these heard so many great things about them on the scooby forums!!

so are you going to run the vf34 on a stock engine?

the meister coilovers are a duel perch design. so even on their lowest setting it will still maintain the full travel as you are not compressing the springs to lower the car.

will these be made stronger than the originals with all the mountings? ive seen the originals before and there so flimsy and crack easily and dont mount properly.

it was a gay 96 spec too, it doesnt have the bigger brakes, better suspension setup, or revised gear ratios like the 98 specs do. the 86 was all over the place on that last corner!! haha

i got asked if my car had been modified, it had a toms kit doobie back end 4.5 inch exhaust with no boxes! haha i told him they all come from japan like this. luckily he never asked to see under the bonnet haha.

just look like late spec seats to me. the only optional interior was the recaro one.

i would get a filter on it if it was me, i dont like the idea that bits of dirt will get sucked in or anything else

ahhh right thanks john, for some reason i always thought the rear diff ratio needed to be changed if the gears were changed. im gutted now as every things back in my car now and ive just got it running again, i cant be arsed taking the box off now lol.

thanks for that john right so it seems ive got this wrong. if i swapped all the gears from a gt box into my ep85 box would my car do the same speeds in the same gears as a gt? or would the gearing in the rear diff need adjusted to suit?

its maybe worth what it would cost to post it lol

yeah i didnt think the rat catcher is very powerfull really. i thought about upping the power on it abit but as im not using it i haven't bothered

i used to do quite alot of shooting, never really hit much though haha. i lived on a farm years ago and i just had a crappy chinese air rifle but i got a few odd bits like crows if i was really close, got a duck with it once, and a chicken but that was an accident, nearly a dog too lol. i used to like shooting rats at night best but found it really hard as they move so quick and never return to the same place after you kill one somewhere. also had the use of a 16 shot semi auto repeater .22 used to get alot of rabbits with that shooting off the roof of the pickup. i had to use for a shot gun

what i mean is, if your altering the gears will this not effect the final drive going to the rear diff so the front wheels will be turning at a different speed to the rear ones which would probably end up wrecking the viscous coupling as it would be taking up the strain.

my 11 year old brother plays it some times haha!
