Looking good mate. Noticed the custom centre pod I made it for the previous owner or person you got it off

Looking good Jamie will have to pop down and have a look and give u a hand

96 or 98 front lip?

Sent my front pipe of exhaust to Dean at RW-Developments for a custom front pipe to be made due to the hks diameter of pipe is so small at the front and want it to be the same all the way through. Dean received my exhaust and he made a jig up to get the new one same length and position he has made it straight through with a wideband bung welded in place to take my aem gauge. Over the moon with it and a great guy to deal with. Heres pics to show his work.

Thanks again Gee all has been stored in my head to feed back to Rob. you have PM on FB

My engine is not far away from completion people who have been following my build can see bottom end is build up and head work is near finished and would like some advise on what sort of C/R would you advise me to run? thoughts were to use a Athena 1.4 head gasket but its in question at the moment. as want it to be reliable but still spool up and be responsive? looking to run 1.5-1.6 bar full boost car is intended for fast road and doing a fair few track days and looking to enter Toyota sprint series basic spec list Engine 4E-FTE Block Wossner 74.5mm pistons PEC rods ACL main bearing ACL big end bearings ACL thrust bearings ARP head bolts ARP main stud and nut kit Toyota oil pump Toyota water pump Toyota full gasket set Toyota dizzy cap & rotor NGK iridium spark plug Magnacore 8mm HT Leads Light weight crank pully Light weight power steering pully Head and inlet Attain Throttle Pulley Standard Inlet manifold ported to match head Ported and polished head 3 angle valve job PEC 1mm oversize big valve conversion Toyota Yaris 1nzfe solid buckets standard springs standard cams Fuel system HKS highflow fuel rail Sard fuel pressure regulator Sard 550cc injectors Turbo setup Greddy TD05 16G turbo Tial MVS 38mm vband wastegate Race-Tech custom manifold engine management Power FC any advise would be great

My advise don't do it. I'm a mate of Dan's and been out in the car and it is great bit of kit. but like people have said he keeps breaking engine mounts. cv joints has been a recent one. also Dans car does not sit low and the sump is about 2" off the floor and am sure he's had to replace in the past but like socks has listed there's more as you go on. well spec'd 4e or 5e is the way to go

I will be entering the last few once cars up and running again. a friend a member on here called VIT is in the series

Thanks chap. Yes mate def chokin to drive it again Thanks Jamie will have to arrange a meet up for sure Cheers mate just bell me when your about and pop up. Yeah he's still got the Clio cup will be having a engine built soon for that to.

UPDATE Yesterday a friend took me down to see Rob to drop some parts down and see an update on my engine and was not a waste of time for my mate as a company opposite called Engine Dynamics remapped my mates 172cup which killed 2 birds with 1 stone Well the update showed that machining on block was complete, block had been notched to take rods, crank had been balanced and ready for assembly PARTS FITTED Wossner 74.5mm pistons PEC Rods ACL main bearing ACL thrust Bearings ACL big end bearings ARP main nut and stud kit Toyota oil pump New Toyota Oil Pressure release valve Water pump Rear main oil seal oil filter housing http://s157.photobucket.com/user/starletabbott/media/DSC05331_zps0fb567a3.jpg.html'> http://s157.photobucket.com/user/starletabbott/media/DSC05333_zps739834ee.jpg.html'> http://s157.photobucket.com/user/starletabbott/media/DSC05334_zps77e2d310.jpg.html'> http://s157.photobucket.com/user/starletabbott/media/DSC05335_zpsf5fe9292.jpg.html'> http://s157.photobucket.com/user/starletabbott/media/DSC05336_zps34a82cb5.jpg.html'> http://s157.photobucket.com/user/starletabbott/media/DSC05338_zps8435f592.jpg.html'> http://s157.photobucket.com/user/starletabbott/media/DSC05339_zpse015c220.jpg.html'> http://s157.photobucket.com/user/starletabbott/media/DSC05341_zpse5d944de.jpg.html'> Then showed me my head which has been the little hold up on the build due to waiting for the development he done in to designing and working along side a manufacture to make 1mm oversize valves for the 4e head and using my head as the guinea pig for the development. all seats have been cut and machining for valves to fit. http://s157.photobucket.com/user/starletabbott/media/DSC05328_zpsdc7ec8ec.jpg.html'> http://s157.photobucket.com/user/starletabbott/media/DSC05329_zps30e75a5b.jpg.html'> Rob has now done all the calculation needed so he is now storming on to get port and polishing of the chambers done and get the head skimmed and assembly to let me know what size Yaris buckets to order from Toyota. Also my custom baffled sump is near completion laser cutters have done there work with the plates and flaps and is now with a friend of his to do the small tweaks and the tig welding. Updates to come on this. the morning finished going down the café with Rob and discussing further works he's doing for me and discussing completion date which is 2-3weeks Now I am etching more than normal and making sure everything is ready for when I collect engine.
