  1. I've pretty much just made exactly that shroud on the cnc machine at work. Havent run it as yet but from all the reading I've done they're of more benefit than not running one as they help draw from the full surface of the radiator.
  2. Looking good guys, real tidy
  3. It's more with the tune than anything. I have run rx7 550's in the past (which are hose pipes essentially) and have had no problems with idle. Sure if the injectors were in the inlet rather than in the head you might have a problem. 440cc mitsi vr4 injectors are good, they have a very good spray pattern and mist well.
  4. Got a multimeter with a connectivity beeper in it? Its not too hard to trace them. Sorry not sure on diagrams
  5. What plugs do you have left over on the turbo loom? It'll be wires for the tacho, guages and warning lights so wont be hard to cut and solder onto the na plug.
  6. Take the cover off and see if the front housing has been machined to fit a bigger wheel. Might be a previa ct9?
  7. Try and find some 560cc evo injectors, better spray pattern than the rx7 550's
  8. Whats the symptoms? Pretty unusual for them to crap out
  9. Already got some white 15's aswell, just thinking about changing these to white too
  10. Hey hey, Anyone any good at photoshop and reckon they could change the colour of the wheels below to white? Just to get an idea. Cheers Stu
  11. The tacho runs off the negative side of the coil. There should be a wire on the plug for the dash on the engine loom that has a black wire with orange dashes - from memory thats the wire to use for the tacho
  12. If your swapping everything over from a EP71 Turbo S donor then the conversion is pretty easy. Rear brakes are the same so (drums) so leave them, front brakes are easy to swap over (1e ones are smaller), swap the fuel tank over and the fuel lines (TURBO S tank has a swirl pot inbuilt, your stock carb one doesn't, and the fuel lines are different), you'll need to put a high pressure filter on the firewall too. Wiring wise just swap everything over (engine, chassis and dash looms. If your converting from a EP82/91 GT Turbo then the job is a bit trickier. The fuel tank wont fit and you'll ha
  13. Love the colour, almost the same as mine!
  14. Ah right - cool. Have you got the 5efhe 4-2-1 extractors on it? They make a big difference. You should also weasle a 5efhe ACIS inlet onto it.

    Greetings

    Thanks guys. The old setup was basically a standard AW11 4agze engine with a TO4e turbo, Linkplus ecu etc and made 196kw at the wheels on 16psi. This time around its a bit more serious with a built bottom end, extensively worked on blacktop head, custom inlet, plus a heap of other changes. Going to really lean on this setup and try to produce some reasonable numbers. Will post up photos and full spec when its finished in a month or twos time.

    Greetings

    Haha dunno about insane but I'll appreciate any feedback Just about to put the new engine in which should produce a fair bit more power.
  17. Loving the dash conversion - can you tell me what was involved? I've had a EP82 dash dummied up in my EP71 but I couldn't get it to sit back to the screen enough - did you cut a whole heap out? What heater setup did you use? The EP71 or EP82? Cheers
  18. Looks awesome! I built a 5efhe one similar to yours but red a few years ago - they go really well
  19. Sounds alot like my EP71! Mine is blue with white wheels too. Get those photos up!
  20. Hey all, Just remembered about this forum (havent posted since 06) so thought I'd say hi. I'm from New Zealand and have a EP71 Cheers Stu
