TrisK's TOMS MK1 GT - Wheel-y big update

meh, is all part of moulding the car to your tastes. id have to agree that non externaly gated screamers are very irritating off boost as it just basicaly blows like a knackered gasket. -
your just plain mean! lol
-
glad shes all back to form dude! and yea a bit of slap is common on a forged engine, mine does it and its been abused to shit for 10k miles
-
haha is exactly what i thought when i read the title of the thread. wondered when it would stray off topic.
-
go to an rr get em to check the afr's while bringing the boost up a little is only about 60quid for a fuel check. may get away with some more boost then and wont need to worry about if your damaging anything ;)
-

Hell yea!! Love hardcore with you!! And the garage isnt to close to the buildings so can make loads of noise too!!

Head gasket gone, urgent advice needed
shorty replied to Arnold's topic in 4E-FTE Engine Discussions
Lager brearings are for cranks that have been reground due to scoring you dont run them as an upgrade as such, it just makes a reground crank sit as it should. As for rods etc its all personal choice, i have custom rods from an american hotrod builder, others use lesser known brands to great effect and the masses use popular tried and known brands but in essance its what you are happy to use. Athena are shit hot! I've only read one thread on issues with them and im fairly sure its a warped block or head not the gasket. As they manufacture gaskets for ferrari and moto gp super bikes id say they know their stuff, i rate them highly. Pistons again personal, i use ridiculosly sized pistons but commonly 74.5 is a sensible option as its only mildly bigger than stock so gives plenty of bore thikness. All that said a blown head is a bit extreem a reason for a full forge build if you have shows to attend, id just bung oem bolts and gasket in and forge after show season imo. -
Fuckin savage man!! What tint did you use for the rear lenses etc? Looks awesome like that! Insanely evil looking GT!!!!!
