Right, what engine oil does everyone use?
shorty replied to Starlet-Matt's topic in MOT & Maintenance
Mobil super 2000 semi syth 10w-40 ran my forged on it for 7odd years for over 10k miles. Any time the engine is apart i check it all through and its uber mint inside!! Best oil to use imo. fully is to thin for these old engines imo. -
Haha thats what i thought when i read your post
-
Lol 10th pic down i thought u had three spoilers! Looks tidy mate love it in red!!
-
Needs a turbo soon me thinks ;) just a basic td04 set up or ct9 hybrid maybe and tbh agree about them handeling better grants donkey gives my levin a damn good run for its money tbh!
-
Fussy much lol good luck with the hunt dude is a few tidy stock ish examples still floating about tbf
-
Cheers lads and is indeed jays old inlet. have an mr2 tb that goes with it too. tbh the inlet,tb,cams, and port polished and port matched head with the bb turbo and short ratio box should all make for a very quick car i hope! Its all in the aid of a good track weapon as opose to a fast road starlet. time will tell i guess. Big thanks to ollie454 too as i picked up my pair of trd 4points off him tonight too
-
I agree with foggy hands down!! The internet is an easy way to pick out a car worth having with ease. and again fb and the like dont help with peoole posting when where and what they are up to all the time. as for ireland i feel sorry for you lads but its nowhere near as bad over here tbh. car crime isnt a big thing in england realy compared to other crimes that happen here. id say drugs and tax evasion lol english are to lazy to comit a crime envolving physical effort most of the time lol
-
Should be fine mate, bell housing is the same as a gt on the box. solong as you do fly and clutch cant see an issue tbh.
-
Sod that my last gf was the on off on type. to much stress!! Bin her off plenty more fishe in the sea etc etc. Uksc logo ftmfw!!!!!
-
Cheers guys another lil update. saw grant last night and collected my inlet. his mate welded a stock sensor in for me so i can run it off the oem ecu to get her running. Now im back on track so will get it fitted n arse about with a few other bits to get the bay finished off.
-
Niiiiiice jake! Pic you sent me eirlier looks tidy as!
-
Looks tidy. just a lil heads up your uknown alloys are very rare volk two piece alloys and vey very light!! I jave them in 15" on my ep85. Off the top of my head i cant remeber the name of em but its in the first few pages of my build some where if you want the name. if you ever damage them (hope you dont) ill buy em off ya as id like a spare set of the bolts for if i refurb mine again lol.
-
Well finaly had 15mins of dry weather. funily enough the revese scoop just doest suit the jam bonnet imo so back to oem lol need painting some when but its a track car so i dont care to much as its last on the list. Soooooo jam anyone???
-
Fairplay dude!!! Let us know what its like with boost when shes driving ;)
-
I am not a face booker but feel some one must start a boycot grimshaws first breakfast show thingy! realy hacked off tbh! Breakfast show is a primetime slot the ONLY dj's that could do it is greg james, scott mills, or the legendary coxy fact!
-
Nick grimshaw is a moany prick! I hate him.and he winds me up to f**k. im gutted and i for one wont be listening to radio one breakfast anymore! Its great that thay want to target a younger audience but if its the older people up early driving to work that tune in exactly what young audience are they expecting to target???? Radio 1 have just made the most epic fail EVER!!!!!!!
-
Only looking for around 300 mark tbh as the current car its in is for track so want spool and response. once its running though will guage from there if a bigger turbo and more power is still usable for track.
-
Yep same shell different floor pan ;)
-
Yep same doors. ep82 skin will have holes in the lower third for the body kit panels to bolt to but is an easy fill over tbh.
-
4e dude but with huge pistons so its 1386cc lol and devon thats exactly what it was for. the rods where custom made too and the previous owner revved to near 9k! I honestly couldnt say for crank costs but to have a full rebuild with je forged pistons, crank work and custom rods cost the last owner just over 5k 8years ago. we have added greatly to the spec in the time I've had the engine and its bomb proof!! Lol

JAE 7-8-9 September 2012 Payment Deadline 2 days and counting 11/7/12
shorty replied to ro55ifumi's topic in Show Archives
Ahhh man cant pay till friday soooo should of paid earlier!! Any chance i can pay for two tickets a day late? Cheeky i know but after a wage screw up and fest 2 im super skint! failing that is there likly to be any drop outs nearer the time? -
Matters not dude. cant realy see it that well im just anal about it because i LOVE the grey garnish looks miles better imo. and the replacement cost 30quid so no biggy bud. Well as I've barley touched the car (no shock there) i have howevr been playing with the gt loom. i know have it all mapped out as to what i need to swap about and splice into for both my jdm rev/speed hud unit and also to get the mr2 tb and tps working off the oem ecu ;) also next dry day the jam bonnet will be swapped onto the car. it will stay matt black for a while before it goes matt white and gets the uksc web address on the rear raised vents
-
Marc my mate said 350? Is 96k miles never skipped a beat. drop me a txt if its any good to you. hes on the island so will envolve a short boat trip or pallet delivery ;)
-
Currently 0 lol im still sorting the car out atm. i bought it from a lad 6yrs ago who ran 325 with stock head and no arp main bolts then i ran 2 different ct9 hybrid set ups then a td04 set up then rebuilt the engine and added more parts and vf24 set up and im sticking it in my 4wd ep85 with the vf24 again. should see arond 300ish when its done this time.
-
Realy?? Says who? If its treated with the corect processes after knife edging it should be as strong if not stronger! Mine has had alot of abuse for over 10k miles and that pic is around 6weeks old. is not a mark on it and as i say its had alot of heavy heavy abuse lol
