  1. looking at getting my intercooler pipework chromeplated after ive finished welding the bov adaptor welded. Any previous experiances , photos and numbers very welcome.
  2. humbug, ill go if you can tow me gaz maybe not then
  3. if you fit a bleed valve for instance, and set it up at a bar, then get a slight boost spike for instance, then what?i totally agree with something like an emanage, a adjustable fuel pressure reg and a fuel cut defencer along with a bleed valve is bhp on a budget, at a cost
  4. sorry chap, but i think your wrong.unless you have an electronic boost solenoid controlling the boost itll never be accurate or safe.the boost pressure can rise and drop, and will do with a bleed valve type. electronic solenoids adjust to suit, they can also be set up with a safety cut so if you do get a boost spike, itll sort it. bleeed valves are a cheap and easy option, but its cheaper to get an electronically controlled one than a new turbo or internals.
  5. as the guys have said, i wouldnt just fit a bleed valve and crank the boost up. unless you wanna say bye bye to your pistons and a big hello to a hole in your block lol sort out the fueling (pump,injectors,rrfpr) sort out the fuel cut either with a piggy back or standalone or just fit a fcd if you want fancy mapping the ecu 1.2bar is probably the max on a standard ct9 and as i said, im sorting out fueling, cooling etc before i get an electronic bc
  6. the hks type s is the same size as the blitz one, just cheaper if you can find it on ebay still
  7. as sicaln said ^ mine gets thrashed most days and begs for more. Toyota engines in general are extremely reliable and solid.Unless its been seriously abused, you wont have problems matey.. Welcome to the fun
  8. lol sorry about the post title, alena made it. The intercooler was 346 and postage was 95 so works out dirt cheap compared to the price in my hks catalogue - intercooler 746 pipe kit 234
  9. if you go on ebay and search for "starlet intercooler", theres one for an ep82 on there for the same price http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/New-HKS-Type-S-FMIC-...1QQcmdZViewItem
  10. its 600x300 as i checked on the hks website, the type r is a triple or quad row type which are generally larger for skylines,350's etc they only make the type s for the starlet
  11. last one on there in England but this is the same one but in America: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/New-HKS-Typ...sspagenameZWD2V worked out as 463 quid total, about half price of what it would normally cost
  12. they do fir perfectly mate, alltho they dont come with the extra mounting bracket, so they put alot of strain on the exhaust mid. but then again, the blitz one doesnt even come with the extra support bracket so..
  13. the easier the exhaust gasses flow out of the turbo, the better. On a n/a you wouldnt want to lose ALL backpressure as it will lose you hp
  14. sorry to hear that shelly, bit of a bummer. Gaz's wepr system is mint, yes it does sit at a slight angle but most exhausts do on a starlet. the quality is spot on, alltho i think he had to trim 3" off of the mid section? I have a hks system, again it sits angled.quiet too which i like. apexi's look good value but ive yet to see one fitted
  15. 96 glanza v with my current mods declared, 1600 fully comp w/ quinn direct. alltho rich asked them today and they would insure him because he is under 25? though im only 20 lol. Maybe because i was previously insured with them for 3 years , since i turned 17 and passed and ive had my 4 previous cars all insured with them?
  16. i dunno rich, i may go.. im a bit undecided lol where is it this year?
  17. Waste of space, im not saying the whole force.But just 99% cant be bothered.maybe its too much paperwork and hassle rich? i had my showcar broken into, BUT i caught the guy in the act, had hold of him even though he was out his face on smack , phoned the police and 1hour later they arrived.. not being funny but my local station is 5 minutes away, not even that. rant over | sorry to hijack the post sparky it had to be said though
  18. god damn you all for going to jae, as im not Gotta make sure anyone whos going gets good pictures and footage ! Where are you from? a few of us go to the kent meets.. but im sure theres a meet where ever your from
  19. if you get a defi gauge , make sure you get the hub.Then you can expand from the boost, to oil , water , volts etc etc Bit pricey but you simply connect them to the hub once its all sensor'd up and wired.
  20. get your self to some meets girl, and you can! Ive still got loadsa people on here i want to meet. i WILL find you!
  21. thats very true, they should really learn to catch criminals and stop being so petty. sparky, i didnt get you a birthday cake, does that make me a bad man lol
  22. SiCaln, didnt i meet you up bluewater once? starletboy-->scutch0-->prangers-->trdstarlet-->gaz(you fittie) erm i think a few others, but i cant remember there usernames
  23. Happy birthday matey, have a good one Bit of a shit about the seat belt thing,once an officer tryed giving me a fine for not having my seat belt on when i pulled out of my road, i was putting it on at the time but he was being arsey, had a moan and "warned" me lol
  24. They wouldnt insure me, and i was insured with them since i passed 3 years ago. they insured my 4 previous cars but wouldnt insure the glanza..Try quinn direct.
