  1. the thing is if you do fork out the extra few quid for the coilovers ul

    a) sell them far easier if you decide to break the car

    B ) better in every shape and form performance wise

    c) springs will be shocking if you decide to serious mod the car

    d) coilovers will be easier to fit rather than getting springs fitted to shocks etc.

  2. not standard he runs around 200-205bhp he reckons

    gt spec hybrid ct9 ...fmic...fuel pump....piggy bak i think ?

    wat ya think?

    ha no i doubt it very much on that spec.although i have tapped 225kph before having to slow down with about another 2k left in 5th gear.converts to 142mph but i had 260bhp td04

  3. <br><br>High compression 5e helps. So does nitrous. :D I wouldnt call my new turbo that big though.<br><br><br><br>Coil pack wasnt an issue. I run an autronic cdi uni so it was piss. I did it when I first built the engine so I cant say if there were gains. I just saw two other GTs blow the dizzy apart at 220hp atw and thought i better be safe.

    savage.is it timed via crank sensors?are they hard wire in?i loved the idea of installing coil packs but never got around to it.ha id say i had more than 220atw in my car when it was built.no probs with the dizzy cap thank god.dyno sheet makes the turbo look very laggy.id say your greatful for them nitrous bottles:)

  4. really nice car mate loving the spec! but how do you get these big turbos your using to spool up fast?

    one word 5e! its not a problem on 5e and his posted and polished head and intake plenum helps alot. this car is gorgeous.is setting up the coil pack hard?is it worth the gains?over here we all still use the distributor:(

  5. i have one.i have a grex oil filter relocation kit and now an oil cooler and thermostat.i dont understand how you mean they kink?im running my pipe off the td04l so that could be the differnce.are you on ct9?i cant see how they would kink.what relocation kit you have?

  6. or i can get a 1.2 from speedvision for around 125 with express delivery :) would this mean i still need to map ?

    yes as it would raise CR.if you got your hands on a cruise 1.4 one you wont need a map.perhaps get it express delivered from rhdjapan.com?...or even shop around the manufacturing companys in england for a 1.4 gasket?

  7. hi guys,

    i recently bought a 94gtt the temp gauge was reading cold all the time and smoking a little, so i flushed an bled the rad and replaced the thermostat with a standard starlet one and the gauge is now dead centre and the idle revs have dropped 400rpm, however the car now uses more fuel rather than less has variable performance and has a rougher idle!

    i'm well confused, can anyone help?? :)

    maybe the engine needs to be retimed to deal with your new and working thermostat.it could have been adjusted and timed according to the old thermostat causing the engine to be cold and idle high.mine had to be readjusted after the new thermostat went in and head gasket done 2 days after the work was done.nothing major

  8. ha funny shit. no i couldn get a spanner wrapped around the bolt and wz afraid of roundin it.cuda been trouble then :lol:

    since this is my thread ye no anyone lookin for Forged pauter rods and forged wiseco 74mm pistons.

    brand new in boxs.goin fairly cheap considerin wat der on sale from n d net.

    pm if interested

  9. ha believe it or not there is actually a special tool for it.its like the top of a ratchet and the steel is really thin with a bit missin up the side of it to allow the wire space.brought it to a garage top get removed.two second job:)

  10. Any device that messes with the ECU circuit should be removed when using a JAM racing ECU. The guidelines from JAM state this and specifically mentions the Boost Cut Controller by name. I would remove the BCC as it may lead to problems.

    I researched the JAM ECU a while back and am quite impressed by them. They certainly make a difference to performance - Good choice!

    Hope that helps man.

    thanks a million.your a saint
