so dan has been and fitted the clocks as well as the rear lights here is how she looks.

im just having a sit down read now with a brew. fantastic stuff.

lovely job. the gains here are some of the best. you can cleaerly see now as the valve head lifts off the seat it flows across 80 to 90% of the inlet valve circumference. there is only 1 place/person i know does this to these heads and now you. keep up the great work. this is very similar to the head im running with the exception that my valve guilds have not been ground back. have you port matched the inlet manifold to head?. you can use the gasket as a guild.

I've just finalized the purchase of a mint low milage paseo si. It took awhile to convince the guy to sell his pride and joy. The proud new owner. The plan is to fit my spare zisco original turbo kit externally gated with a tdo4l turbo have here, the 4efte power inlet manifold, high lift 5ehfe cams, fadaza alloy fly wheel 212mm 4efte clutch and my spare c60 none lsd gearbox. On a stand alone ECM, FMIC, 372cc injectors areomotive fuel reg, kemso fuel pump. See what she does at .7bar. my aim is around 160hp higher torque output. I pick it up when I'm back mid June. I'm wa

great read, thanks for sharing the experience, looked great fun. remember to get some videos of the TSS for us all.

Agreed they look fantastic. Really going to make the bay look brand new at this rate. I can see I'm going to have to go on a cleaning spree on mine.

I've got 1 of these coming from a heavy goods vehicle breakers in the UK. Your design led me to it. The filters are changeable. https://www.google.com/search?q=volvo+d8+crank+case+filter&oq=volvo+d8+crank+case+filter&aq

Waw that's a messy shop. Power FC I had 1 of them on my Celica. Great bit of kit.

And the TRD glanza v surround. Ep91 ukdm starlet cd clocks Pink paseo needles. And mixed it up alittle. The orange ep91 needle is just there as reference. The white clocks have purple led back lighting and the black has white led back lighting. Nice and visible. This and the cup holders is the start of bringing the interior as upto date as possible. I'm going to get the seat belts done in red as well as replace the rear bench seat with something alittle more sporty. I'm also after an MR2 spider steering wheel For it. In the e

Decided to go with the lighter easier to read and wire in paseo clocks, it also has the near correct red line for my engine setup, also the gearbox Speedo drive mates with these clocks. Just sat here working out the wiring. Think I have it sorted. Time to swap afew things around. I'm using the perfect paseo screen cover. I'll post on here the pin out conversion for Starlet spotife, cd to paseo, glanza clocks.

I've got afew go pros at home waiting for some videos to be made. Sounds real nice. Very smooth.

Thanks for the information there T-dog Nice mods. Keep it coming.

So many nice white ep91. Got me thinking about changing the colour of mine. Nice glanza fella.

I'm hearing you there, I also work away alot and it will be close to 7 month by the time I get back on with my build = brakes seized on, rusted new discs, covered in all sorts, flat new battery. Can't wait haha.

Just having a read now. Looks smart.

Nice, I think I'll be doing this to my catch can internals. Nice simple and affective. Loving the impreza model.

This gt wins my vote for best styling I've seen so far. Would be good to see if it's still about from what I've read on this it's a 6speed also.

You can port match the inlet manifold to the head ports. Use the gasket as a guild. Do not port match the exhaust side, these need to have a lip to reduce the affect of the back pressure waves. Also the paseo 1.5ltr Toyota e series engine runs a lower temp thermostate targeting engine power against in cab comfort/heat from memory I think it's 78deg. Use this it's a great mod for the 4efte lads. It's stamped on the thermostat. You can use the 68 deg aftermarket unit for more power but you will suffer to deforst the screen in winter. I've also been very surprised with these E3 sp

Nice work.

Your welcome. Here to help if I can. With what you have done and are doing I was thinking it would be best to tell you so you can extract the full potential. The valve head restrictions are the 2nd biggest problem area after the 1st which is the unfinished machine lip of the valve seat, on the port throat (inside the port directly behind the valve). It's real easy to check the valve to piston clearance. Use an old headgasket, head bolts, and some putty on the piston crown them measure the depth of the valve indentation after a few reverlutions of the engine. The lost compres

Now your talking. Looking super sexy lad. Keep it coming

I did find this while over in the states. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32661534632.html .3mm thickness. Whilst the original is dinner plate 1.2mm The thing to remember here is the valve to piston clearance. These gaskets quote 5efe, but if you run the higher lift 5ehfe cams I'd be tempted to check the clearance. From what I can see on you tube videos it will clear ok. Cylinder mixing on the e series engine is poor at best due to the very thick head gasket and combustion chamber shape/design. This gasket will help in afew different ways. Also use the factor

Yep, exactly that, but be carefull on the exhaust bridge in-between the exhaust valves, there's a water jacket around 3-4mm down into the material (were the arrows are in the picture above) its thinnest point is smack bang in-between the exhaust valves so just round off the edges like in the picture above. The additional flow gains are mighty. Sorry about late reply. You can use a slightly thinner aftermarket head gasket to bring back any lost compression ratio. Only work the areas around the valves (all valves) the rest is much needed cylinder squish zones. the area/lip I original

I witnessed a near standard glanza running .5psi under standard boost, hks actuator, a fuel pressure reg ported exhaust manifold and head, a blitz Access ecu, 2.5inch straight threw exhaust system/gutted factory cat hit 168hp. It even had the standard top mount intercooler. Mighty gains. Gives you an idea of the gains a ported head brings.

Yeh I'll do that now and edit/update this reply.
