    So oils can start to smell after awhile. Rich conditions would start to show on the plugs straight away, the only way to be sure it's fuel is to send a sample off to be tested. Do a blink code read out. Ring lands can be a bugger to pick up on. The best tests would be a crank case pressure test using an old school monometer at higher rpm, or cylinder hydrolic test this will definitely show up piston seal issuse.

    Some really enjoyable builds taken place. Great idea on the stacks. I think 1 saw some 1 Cut the standard manifold just after the 90deg upturn angle faceing the itb upwards giving more Room for stacks and itg filters. Keep them updates coming. If you fancy a 4efte inlet cam I've got lots here.

    Just found this now. Was stunning looking and truly great gt. Jaws still hanging here.

    Great work guys. G6r another underated toyota, keep us all posted on progress.

    Filter looks great. Abit of colour in the bay as well.

    After talking to the caribbean starlet owners. This is what is know over there and used for many years this helps stop the small plenium chamber not restrict the topend power.

    Nice bay. think I'll have to do this when I'm back. Great work.

    Haha fantastic. The mighty BMW M3 engine 300hp capable n/a the first and only 4cylinder natural asperated engine to keep up with the ford costhworth turbo and Nissan's insane RB, as seen in btcc of the early 90s. 4efe and 5efe suitable platinum plugs these help the dizzy system and low coil kv maintain spark duration and dwell (procise spark advance) as well a good earth return system. Always check plug treads diameter and pitch and plug reach against the old set. These come gapped. https://www.ebay.co.uk/p/250706036 Looking on your bay pictures yours h

    Guys I love this. Great advise, and on the fuel pressure reg put up a pic of what unit it is, there are some cheap units that are, urmm in a word bad and not stable. After looking into the normally asperated tune the most I've seen was a 91hp green na in Sheffield that ran the 4efe gen1 full setup (turbo inlet and throttle, 4,2,1 corrola exhaust) with the brown corrolla injectors and what looked like a sard regulator. From what I could see he was using the tps off the early system (also turbo) on the UK ep91 4efe ems ECU this leaned off the fueling threw the rev range and better at peak

    I have just watch it a video using the 5ehfe cam good watch. The itb setup with an ECU like the det master3 should see you to some very nice figures and times. Welcome to the rare 6speed club. I'll get the lift difference off the turbo cam compared to the na cam, I know it's not 1mm as quoted on the 5ehfe, it's also better to measure cams using a micrometer rather than verniers. Keep the progress coming.

    I'll get on that thanks for that. That's a very capable setup already but I'm sure you've found that out. If you get it dynoed do a third and fourth gear run. On most 6speeds 4th gear is the gear. Congratulations.
  12. Sam44
    Nice aprouch. I'll follow your build. I can't find many ep91 running the cam so should be very interesting to see. Are you running the gearbox yet.
  13. Sam44
    Looking good. MK3 supra very nice and getting rare car that. How are you liking the cam, they pull alot better uptop end of the rpm range.
  14. Sam44
    It's definitely worth it. These are about to take a price jump up soon, getting less and less of them.

    Not sure why it did this, link above. I could not delete. Yeh I think the later 4efe engines are a mix up of parts. The only thing I can think of is that Toyota cut down factory space producing some of the other parts. The later 4efe engines seem to struggle to make hp like the earlier units do. Not sure my self on the cranks, it's just what people have told me. I've also come across some 98 spec 4efte engines running the 4efe inlet cam that when they have used a td04 they achieve better hp figures. Again Toyota cutting down parts I am thinking. I know these cams exist because I've got ar

    I could imagine there shock not having the battery motor's to send them on there way into the turbo zone. At the same time I bet they would love not having to worry about battery life and having the lift and coast in there technique. Alot to do in the shortest possible lap time threw a 70 lap race. Especially when you have driver's the likes of Hamilton, vettle, verstapen and leclerc. + Other with mind blowing abilities to make it look easy. They all know if the battery management can't match the others around them it heel and toe time\time to start driving threw the mirrors (the p

    Nice find I didn't know about the sway bar.

    There are afew different springs used I've heard of Yaris springs, VW polo springs and nissan rb springs. But I've not used any of these so hopefully others can add alittle information here. I'm running a set of cat camshaft springs in the 4efe I have which I got already installed.

    Hello. The 4efte has stronger valve springs due to its lighter pistons giving it a higher capable redline rev limmit, but these do improve proformance, gives much better valve seal. Na valve springs start to dance (wobble) around 6krpm. The 4efte also has a higher lift inlet cam giving better higher end torque output. (Increased valve overlap and lift). Hope this helps. Another great mod is to clean up the valve bowl, port cleaning up the tooling marks and lips left from the production line process. These tooling marks are like ridges really bad and just behind th

    Great work. She will be back on the road soon and with a new hart. From what I've been told as well tunning developments are the best around in the UK by agood margin.

    PpInteresting yeh I've looked them up thy are big. I'd be interested in seeing a list of parts needed. I'll message Brad for info on his MK1 see what he has done. Thanks guys for all and any input/information, I'm starting to get to grips with these little machine's.
  22. Sam44
    Yeh second This advice, if it's before the turbo it's very important if it's after it's cat related.
  23. Sam44
    Amazing the extras that came on these for there age.
  24. Sam44
    Waw I wasn't aware the standard ems had a egt sensor. Very interested in this topic. Is the egt sensor placed before or after the turbo in relation to the exhaust system.

    Here is some informative links and videos that help explaine some of the things I talk about. Braking bias, allowing the rear brakes to be used in a corner helping the chassis sit flat, balanced for a smoother, fast corner.
