  1. Unfortunately they simply haven't got The Man power they say thay have 2000 on a list however try triple that with Every phone call made about a protentul person leads anouther line of investigation. With all the budget cuts etc Now they slowly recuriting again but Small numbers. Also it is the home grown ones now that go under the radar till the last minute.
  2. Yer tell Me About it got some used cams arriving 2 moz then go pay the bill and get the car transported home hopefully sat and then get to work Changing the cams over and belt also might have to sorce cam followers depends on If they damaged
  3. Give them Anouther coat of the morse then pressure wash them Should help with taking it off
  4. Ah IHad some Spacers made for my front arb My rear arb and para fitted Custom air intake pipe made for turbo Catch can supplied and fitted Aem wideband supplied and fitted Geo set up. Throttle body stripped down and unblocked some wiring had to be sorted out to. About 2 hours of mapping to set fueling etc. There a lot they did which has made the car better. Atill Got to have it mapped once I done to cam issues I Also Have to do some routing of some pipe work away from manifold as they will melt through eventually There workshop labour rate is 90 a hour there Mapping is 135 its mainly la
  5. Perfect I managed To get a set local to me so b getting them At the weekend then got to get car back to mine from Lakeside then fit the new cams and seals etc More bloody expensive. Don't help having 3k tuning bill lol but should b able to sort that
  6. I no this old post but u got these ?
  7. As title Says I need to replace My cams due to My aftermarket high lift ones are damaged
  8. So Update from the checks the clearances are fine how ever my cam followers are wrong for the type of cams I have fitted which is causing the lobe of the cam catching on the Followers and trying to push the shims out.! So the cams in there are now ruined so need to sorce a new set of cams or a good second hand Set. My question is what power can the stock cams take ?
  9. all that has been done before the maping started all came bk spot on just the shims I need to do now
  10. No they being checked ATM down at The mappers to see how many are out. They just want to give me the best map possible Looks like it is just a lose connection on my braided clutch line
  11. Strange one. Have u change size of the pipe of the inlet atall ? I just trying to think what could be causing the weak vacume
  12. The mapper recommend that they b checked due to it hard to hear the det prop through the det cans and it was bloody loud tapping from The head. It better to get them sorted then carry on mapping to be on safe side at end of day it what a extra 59-100 quid if I need a few shims from Toyota
  13. Shit sorry I forgot they have a pipe off the Inlet Hose not got small hole in it ? But i still check the servo
  14. Yer looksLike it was a pipe has popped from Phone call I got and they checking to valve clearances for me then I will order the shims and fit them my self. I Got to decide if I calling it a Day ATM and bring it home and save some money to finish the map as current bill is 2700 but they have done a lot of work on the car in other Areas most of it is labour tbh but that what u get by a good tuning company a high labour rate lol
  15. Ok I awaiting the clearance check from my tuner once I have the specs I need to change then I will look At what u got in the pic Which ones The inlet and exhaust Or I might have the remaing lot off you depends on How many have gone ?
  16. Exactly clutch is brand new tho and bearing unless it come off the shaft. Prob the master cylinder gone tits up not to much of a expensive fix
  17. It seems bad by what the mapper said through the det cans. Yer was running fine then just lost the pedal I just hope it not internal fault but got to get car bk to colchester now from the place then work out what's gone wrong
  18. So I got a phone call today from The mapper giving me bad news my clutch pedal decided to give up the ghost during the map don't no what's caused it yet poss slave but was new or it is my clutch master cylinder so that's one thing Anouther is that they noticed a fair amount of tapping on my head which is making listing for deternation hard. Think it is valve shims anouther set back I so far spent 2700 at the place for various things I wanted to be done including the partial map. So now I got to bring the car home find out why the pedal gone hopefully it fluid related and not clutch but
  19. U checked the brake Servo ? And mc ? Could B a weak diapham
  20. Cheers I been looking at rotas grids then get them painted a nice gold colour Or these Rota MSR in Steel Grey 15x6.5" 4x100/114.3mm ET40
