  1. Looks smart, but your steering wheel is on the wrong side?. Welcome to the site. if you need any advice on parts needed to fit a turbo and run boost on the 4efe there are a few people on here that are active and going threw the process now.

    I'll try and find you 1. Its the full roof pannel but it's nice and square.
  3. Looking now. Always good to expand the know how. Yeh I'm running 2x90deg bends into to core so definitely needs improving. Thanks for the information.
  4. I've got a C63 or c64 out of the lotus 2zz. I've started to strip the box today and have found some differences that are going to course me some problems. the main difference is the final drive differential drive shaft diameter is larger that just at present I'm stuck on, and these will not take the starlet drive shaft cups. If any one knows of any starlets running this box, or a cup to fit the box and the starlet shaft or CVJ otherwise I will have to get a final drive diff gear made at work to house the starlet lsd unit. The lotus and Toyota C63 & c64 boxes have much better lsd units
  5. The standard 5e caps they are thicker across the bridge like people have informed me.

    Coming now. Hope these help, if you need any other just ask. Its has been hard to get good pictures from a distance with the sun position and it's a white car. I'll get you some more tonight when the sun's lower.
  7. Good to hear some feed back on the coil overs. I was recently in a ep82 that had BC coilover fitted. I found the ride to harsh for the road, For me. Looking good.
  8. Waw stunner. Fair play to you. On this GT MK3 I'm saying. (I'm still getting not known my GT models)

    I've been out at my mum's most of the day helping out. I'll get you these pics first thing in the morning. What angles and pannel do you need pics of?
  10. I was wondering about the fitment of the caps. it's hard to buy caps separately from the block as there normally inline honed together alot of the engines I work on have snapped off crank caps being produced as part of the block. I'm going to hold onto the 5e. This might be the engine for me to push I've just bought another starlet shell last week also. Let's build some little rocket ships.
  11. We might have to start another topic here on this subject sorry Gavin. Yeh I believe the 5e has better stronger caps out of factory than on the 4e I believe these break on the bridge heel is thinner. Just from the information people have shared with me. I do have a 5e block here and I'm waiting for a 4e engine to turn up so I can start to see the differences. If you have had this happen to you on a 4e feel free to message me. But send me any links you have and people to talk to running big power levels. Definitely room to gauge more information. Before I embark on a 5e or 4e forged
  12. I'm also very interested in this topic?. I've tried messaging afew people ho ran these tfo35 turbos but I didn't get any replys. As I got the manifold fit ments wrong on a recent ct9 hyb thread I'll see what I can find first. I've run the 14412aa100 49377-04000 tdo4l standard turbo at 8psi, on a 5efe ep91 inlet manifold and a zisco ram's horn exhaust manifold external gated on a electronic boost controller 4efe ep91 engine cams. Pressure build was around 3krpm and came on full boost by 4250rpm. The only reason for this turbo was to check my hyb against a stock turbo, I picked it up for 3

    Yeh mines a uk cd sunroof model. 5door. I will be back home tonight I'll put some up.
  14. Welcome get a build thread up. It's always good to see other people's work.
  15. What colour are the wires on the three pin plug. Spoiler looks smart. Really nicely styled
  16. Yeh as said it's only 1 persons advice that can be helpful to another. I have spoken to around 30 people at present which have warned me about running around 300hp due to all types of failures, not just cracked main caps. It does seem to be a upper level limiting factor. Saying this as a percentage of these people more than 25% have had caps fail. Just saying you can make up your own mind as to how high or low this figure is. All in the UK, which is very interesting. It would be good for me to hear from people out side of the UK.
  17. Nice. Great location to show it off. Mine is the tail air cooled but at present it's under my radiator where it can't be seen at the end of a long pipe. I'm going to relocate this to a better position very soon where it can be seen.
  18. I'm definitely interested Rob send me a copy of the warranty if possible. And good points from akyakapotter all of which I also take into consideration
  19. Sorry Gavin about this game of ukso tennis on your build thread. There will always be difference of opinion on even how to research your build. Rob you asked me for evidence and I have given it you. I'd suggest to Gavin to get you to build him an engine with a full warranty for 300+hp if you can do this I will have 1 as well.
  20. Near every other pro starlet tunner I've spoken with Rob has warned me. So why you don't know I'm not sure. All I can say is phone some high up starlet engine builders and ask there advice on engine spec for target hp. http://www.tuningdevelopments.uk/product_info.php?products_id=3314 As stated 250ftlds on a 4efte is around 300hp. as stated in my previous comment. These are regarded along side racetech and fensport as the best starlet tunners in the UK. And let me not forget zissco hos work on the quarter mile strip is legendary around these cars and yet to be repeated.
  21. You tube how to are the best option. Running an external waste gate on a electronic boost control for the best results again use good equipment for reliability and power. The cheap eBay equipment does not last.
  22. Yep either of these turbos are a better road option you can build your own tdo4l hyb. get a 13t billet 7+7 compressor wheel and a 11blade exhaust turbine. You will have to use a super back seal kit £30 and get it balanced £50 to £100. Then port out the exhaust housing from the manifold mount down to the exhaust turbine shell. (You can get up to a 20t billet compressor wheel and housing but after looking at Dyno graphs the spool lost and back pressure are not worth going any bigger than a 17t compressor but again because of the compressor size and weight difference it affect spool up)
  23. Yep chase that's a better angle you can now see how the center of the front wing is designed to feed the rear diffuser. Just like in the tap video above this increases volume and speed.
  24. No i got to 6psi then the surge in power/spool was to much for the 4efe I was worried about bending a rod. Very agresive, and because of the late turbo spool up requires to be aggressively driven. All the things you don't want for reliability on toyota e series engine. The c160 box does suit the bigger turbo better on the roads. For good quarter miles times you want no less than a td05 20g hyb I was reading animal GT used a td06 on noss to get his times. Around 11sec
  25. Yep another option and a td04l is a much better turbo running lowwer charge temps safer also producing more torque. Run a large external waste gate reducing exhaust back pressure and temps ive found the zisco ram's horn to spool the tdo4l really well, plus you can get these quite cheap. This with the tail waste gate and jap speed exhaust with a high flow cat make a great combo for great full rpm range power. You can stay with the starlet inlet manifold also or with the tdo4l go with the better tubular corrola inlet producing an even cylinder power balance and fantastic low rpm torque an
