  1. Click on the 'Options' tab to the top far right of your thread title. You can't miss it. Change the display mode to 'Standard' instead of the current one to revert back to normal. Joz
  2. Simply said, both fabricators produce very quality manifolds and both rightfully stand by their work. This means you have a leg to stand on, if by chance a weld decides to blow or the mani cracks. Both also have good communication. Sasha @wepr always answers pms and is very helpful. The same can be said for Ricky@racetech and being uk based you can pick up the phone and talk to him directly. This is based on my experience with both traders. If you have any preferences/requirements just ask, more advanced fabrication requirements will incur extra cost however such as advanced mani designs. B
  3. It 100% comes with no nipples Matt. Was recently running one myself. Joz
  4. Great stuff man, congrats! Gives me an excuse to pop down someday! Joz
  5. I can confirm our engines are non-interference because I have been through the experience of my cambelt 'properly' snapping in two on a regular 70mph cruise running in a new FHE hybrid engine and no damage was caused to my internals (thankfully). It was caused by the quality of the belt itself and not my mechanic/installers fault. This was a new item. I'm no expert but after three engine builds my opinion is our cars do not require regular belt or 'chain' maintenance that would affect timing if left unmaintained/unchanged for a long period. Whereas interference engines do, such as those needi
  6. Check our UKSC Wiki for an in-depth buyers guide mate. Joz
  7. Basically put some effort in and kickstart a new regime/way of life mate, not just for the holiday. Will do wonders for everything. Crash diet and other so called easy ways out (pills etc) will just make you eventually ill. If you want to whip off your t-shirt in Ibiza be prepared to sweat for it and rekindle your body's metabolism ;) The gut is usually the last part that starts to disappear, speaking from experience You also don't want a skinny washboard stomach, you want some visible abs. For your height your weight actually sounds fine, but it is totally realistic for you to trim up/tone
  8. Maybe not as big ;) Its the eyebrows that do it
  9. They are awesome Hou I'd buy quite a few things especially the plushes. If they can design a uksc star to have in the middle of the med-large plushes I'd be in heaven ;) Joz
  10. Up-tp-date news, figures and reports can be found in the following links: JRC Tsunami/Earthquake Updates & Info Operations Updates Joz
  11. Great idea James I'd be in for a set pending on design, logos etc. TRD or a uksc star/ukstarletclub.com motif somewhere would be a nice touch if possible. Joz
  12. Bought THE apexi td04 relocation kit off Mr Legend. All arrived well packed and as described. Highly recommended to deal with :harhar: Cheers mate! Joz
  13. Try finding some info on the TF035 Ste mate :harhar: Here's two articles to wet your whistle #1 #2 Smaller than TD04L, quicker spool, similar characteristics and TD series flange obviously. Comes from the Subaru Forrester Turbo. I'll probably try one much later. Might be up your street however the regular TD04L is always readily available second hand, its just finding a nice low miles one. eBay and the forums are your friend. Ted on tgtt dabbles a lot in different TD and VF turbos so could source you one if you are stretched. Joz
  14. Cheers Ryan mate You bet! I still need to get your pillar bars painted lol. Its cool, I've bought an apexi/samco jobby. Cheers for the offer Joz
  15. Thanks for the kind words of appreciation and encouragement lads Just saving for a new exhaust now to get her boosting. For the time being she will be driven like an n/a. I honestly can't wait until she is fully up and running JAE or at least one major UK meet one day for sure! Joz
  16. Ever wondered why some Tial wastegates are so cheap on eBay? Real vs Fake An Example...
  17. Cheers for the kind comments gents ;) Si I know so well mate but the results are more than worth it! Socks I will be upgrading to a nice civic rad a lil' later. Jay assured me this rad would not affect the quality of tune so its currently on loan. Just to get this new zaust ordered and we can move on swiftly Joz
  18. Thanks for the kind comments lads Engine bay is still a work in progress so room for improvement! The cooling panel is out for easy access at the moment. First things first, a HUGE thanks to Jays Garage for installing my race-tech td04 kit on such short notice. Very much appreciated as always!!! Secondly MANY thanks to Jamie for sorting me out an awesome deal for his basically brand new Race-Tech kit, I couldn't be any happier with my dealings with him and especially the kit itself (sexual steel), the man is a real gent and very highly recommended ;) Thirdly this installation was powered
  19. Its still great to get an update on your project bro and that the force is still strong. As soon as you get those pistons, bang! the engine will be sorted I just know it! The time you are waiting for them to come, surely the bodywork/chassis will be sorted? Judging from the cr ratio etc you will going to a totally different level to where I got to lol. Are you installing uprated cams too bro? Joz
  20. Check this thread mate. All the info you need is there and more. Joz
  21. You have posted in the right place but this subject has been covered many times before Some choice articles for you: #1 #2 #3 #4 #5 Also some interesting info from our sister site 4EFE-T or 4EFTE? These are just the tip of the iceberg and there are plenty more on the site within that section. The conversion can cost hundreds or thousands, it all depends on the quality and reliability of build you can afford or aspire to. There are also insurance issues to consider so make sure you can be fully covered before even thinking of going ahead. Hope this helps and happy reading. The large majori
  22. It is indeed safe, just make sure you are fuelling ok on wide open throttle. Leaning out will cost you your engine. I'm running 1.1 bar with a ported mani and emanage ultimate. Joz
  23. That's the spirit mate Not all is lost are there are still plenty of things you can do to your rep. Check n/a engine discussions in technical for more info. Joz
