  1. andys thery is right tbf, id plug it in amd see if the car is a tad more agressive or if the rpm raises atal, you will kick your self otherwise lol. chances are its totaly stock but it could well be flashed from the factory as apose to using a slave unit to "trick" the ecu
  2. haha looks savage love the wheels always have, not sure they look better than the new actions though tbh will wait to see it in person. and the brakes are still sat here sweetness lol just never get time to go to a machine shop anymore. work is waaaay to hectic. as i said a year ago you can take em as they are and get the discs milled local xx
  3. could be a crack in the head maybe? but im clutching at strwas a tad
  4. well the ep8* jdm 100ps engines run 4efte style manifolds. and my ep85 na engine was nippy as fook! the later spec jdm na engines ran the corrola inlets but i dont belive they where the 100ps versions of the engine.
  5. arp head bolts should be ok but alot off 2bar pluss lads eun arp studs as they are 10mm as apose to 8mm and studs are claimed to be better in engines than bolts. head gasket depends on compression ratio and boost levels, the cr can be altered many ways depending on what you are doing to the head. cams, billet cams are the only one that will drop straight in with minimal fuse but prices can be around 700-900 for a set depending on supplier. as for ratio of cam profile it will vary depending on boost and rev limits etc
  6. Bout bloody time!! Haha, hopefuly catch ya at a few shows this year bud, always good to see your gt on track ;)
  7. Sometimes being paranoid pays off, good job you caught it so early dude. Also pic of the month right there with the two gt's in the workshop
  8. Tempted by the turbo kit, what sort of boost where you making at what rpm?
  9. Pmsl stuggled to sell my mint as fook ae101 levin gt apex, let it go for 1200 in the end and now everyones after one haha.
  10. I dont need to justifiey the construction o my "mop handle" as you call it, its structual benifits are both proven throughout themodding scene and from its effectiveness on the car. As for tech discussions use the search, the disscusions on shim clearenve, valve spring base pressures, polished cranks, 4paw gear ratios and final drive alterations, retro fitting of phantom grip lsd units, etc etc go back to the uksc days. But hey you think what ya like bud. You seem to be the tech orical of ukso
  11. Lmao!!! We have many tech chats on this forum, your talking about a hollow vs solid strut while others are talking about ingnition timing, port polishing and camless engines!! But to name a few of the recent topics.
  12. Idealy yep. Any form of fueling/ignition or mapping should be done with as much equipment as posable to aid the process
  13. Never realy works though, do you leave feed back on ebay?? I dont tbh. And when it came in on tgtt every one just repped the shit out of thier mates and then couldnt be arsed to show appreciation for the helpful bunch. Rep point is what made me leave tgtt back in the day (among other things) as it gives the wrong impression to newer members imo.
  14. Yes bud i am, i have cruise valve springs, 265 billet cams and a custom intake the same as the wepr demo car uses. My head was all done profesionaly by a head speacialist.
  15. Lol yea my head is maxed out realy, I've alot of supporting mods to run with such a maxed head though.
  16. Sorry just noticed you said your going for no cast marks and mild smooth, in which case the port should feel nice and smooth with no lumps or rough burs left, so id say yours is almost there realy
  17. No where near to be fair bud and is best left to the very experienced or a specialist tbh, as the chambers should be balenced to give even flow. to give you an idea Exhuast (not a great pic but gives an idea) Inlet
  18. i dont want to see whats gonna happen with this situattion. councils/housing assosiations are bastards!
  19. so my tein brace isnt as good as a gt one because it has pivot ends? damn if only tein knew about handaling they could of designed it better
  20. hope your right bud be gutted if this goes wrong for ya!!
  21. lol im aware of the concept i just ment there has been camless engines for donkies years im an F1 whoare!!! and engines make my balls twitch, i love engineering tech.
  22. like wankle engines then?
  23. id complain then tbh, and iddy, clamping is now illigal but towing isnt! so dont get the wrong idea bud, you are now tickwted for being in the wrong place i.e private parking zones but if you are in violation of council restrictions or double yellows or oublic zones you will be towed. I've sevral mates who work for recovery agents and the tow on a regular basis for the police/council etc
  24. well they shouldnt realy but its their car park owned by their company so they arnt going to be stopped by anyone. id move em quick though as a mate had a simlar issue in an unsed carpark and his cars got towed before the deadline and crushed!
