  1. No Luke I didn't bleed it, but when I was taking everything off again to check, the coolant was coming out of the TB so I think it's fine on that front Yeah let's see how it goes tomorrow, thanks again for the help Asad, I appreciate it!
  2. Let us know how it's going mate Well it turns out I accidentally deleted the exhaust video before Japfest so I'm gonna need to take another Should have had the 4afe 60mm Throttle Body up and running on the engine but came across a few problems (engine management light, crazy idle etc) so I'll be doing a diagnostic tomorrow and trying to sort it out!
  3. Just thought I'd update the situation; - Got the sensors all wired up, definitely plugged into the right plugs, coolant pipes in, PS pipes loose but out of the way, bolted all up. Started it and it was idleing at 3krpm - Started for a min or two, started and died out 1st time, 2nd time it went back to 3k rpm, and was revving ever so slightly more every 10 seconds or so - Started driving, get it into 3rd & it feels like someone is pressing the throttle, even when I'm on the brakes! Same in fourth too, just kept getting itself upto ~2000rpm and felt like it was kept constant to keep it that unless I braked. If i pressed clutch it went back to 3krpm. - Got home, put it into reverse with clutch fully depressed & it idled at 2krpm, then suddenly went to 1500rpm and kept dipping between 1500-2000 and the engine light came on -Shut the engine, gave it a few mins, started it up again and it sat at 2krpm with the engine management light still on I'll be doing a diagnostic check tomorrow, but Asad reckons it's the idle control valve which needs swapping over with my old one!

  5. Yeah I think that'd be the one Gonna give it a try now, fingers crossed it'll be okay!
  6. Nice pics Andy! Shame I couldn't meet up with you & Dave again, I came down with friends who aren't on here so we didn't get to stay at the UKSC stand much Maybe next time though eh? RR meet at Monster Motorsport?
  7. You know the bottom part of the TB? It holds a sensor and it held to the TB by 4 screws, they seem like they're welded on! I'm leaving that now anyway..got the coolant pipes connected and one sensor plugged in. The bottom sensor plug on the new TB is further away, so I'm just about to cut the sensor from the loom and lengthen the wiring!
  8. I'll have to try what you said, tried once again and there's no way in hell these screws are budging
  9. Eek! Okay thanks Luke! I'll give it a go You can thank Enzo, he told me the 4a TB would fit
  10. Is the PS hosing the two that go on the back yeah? What effect would removing them have on the car? Sorry, drift? Ah okay fair enough. I just recently got a full exhaust system so I was curious to see if could improve the intake system at all! Hoping to get an fte inlet mani in the coming months too
  11. Ste the stock one is 45/50mm I think, but this is 60mm
  12. I was afraid someone would say that I've already tried, but the screws seem to be seized on! Tried WD40 obviously but no luck. I don't wanna try too hard round them off or anything, got any tips?
  13. Hey guys, Picked this Throttle Body up from the breakers the other day hoping it would swap straight over. The fitment looks exactly the same as my stock TB, sensors in the same position, 2 coolant pipes on the bottom, however there's one slight hitch; My stock TB has two (coolant?) pipes at the back of the throttle body (where the TB faces the firewall) but the 4afe TB only has the two coolant pipes on the bottom How do I get the TB to fit? What are the two pipes used for, and can I block them off? Thanks Amjad
  14. Niiice..are you looking for an engine now or still gathering parts?
  15. Gutting mate, I don't like the way 6P2 numbers are going down What's insurance like on a Polo 16V?
  16. Already looks pretty low, gonna be tidy on Pis Anthracite sounds like a win with the Speedlines! Also liking the Sig lol
  17. Is photobucket blocking anyone else from uploading pics of is it just me?
  18. Yeah it's a must do, they'd look swish in the Reflet's too Have you heard anything back about that JDM 4efe yet? Wow! I didn't expect that! To be honest, a month or two ago I would seriously have considered it, but I'm loving it more than ever now :D Nice one Craig! I liked yours before, but in the metal it's on another level! Well the journey to Japfest yesterday certainly loosened up the exhaust even more! It's realllly loud now I've taken a video of the exhaust but it's from a few days ago, so isn't as loud as it is now! I'll get that up in a bit along with a little I picked up from the scrappy's the other day, so watch this space
  19. Many thanks for all the kind words people! I never thought this car would appeal to as many people as it has done, which is really nice Yeah they're quite bright even during the day! Yes, yes they are wired properly lol I didn't end up ringing them, been spending too much on the car recently Will get in contact with them though at some point & get it done! Thanks Phil! I love your car, so if you like mine I must be doing something right I didn't want to get like, just white decals or something, instead I went for a range of colours which I reckon pulls it off quite well Did he see the stand then?
  20. Yeah I saw a that Yellow Glanza too, never seen it before.. Managed to get a pic when it was leaving, I'll put it up later
