  1. just a little side note...when you get the intercooler kit,,,i'd suggest you run some water through it first to see if its all clean (no bits of metal, etc) before you install it
  2. http://www.speedvisioncps.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=30&products_id=80&zenid=945dabc9cb34329e58a922528dedba8a if going with speedvision, it may be best to buy directly from sam its possible to get a subaru td04l in Barbados, but i'm not sure how easy it would be to grab a tf035 with our gas quality and other factors in mind, i'd strongly suggest you get at minimum a piggyback which tunes fuel and ignition now if you plan to stick to low boost set up, maybe better you stick with the stock ct9 or hybrid ct9 as it will be lower cost to you overall if you a
  3. will pay a visit to their websites. good research for future reference
  4. you have a link?...i'm not familiar with that site
  5. thanks AdamB if i ever forge up, think i'll get some 4032 type pistons then
  6. can you give approximate speeds for the gears to rev limit?
  7. would you happen to know the silicone content in stock pistons?---if any? as i'm not clued in this area just asking for possible comparison sake
  8. do as stu said.....also check that your oxygen sensor is connected
  9. lionel, as said earlier, the amount of custom fabrication and work that went into neil's car, it may simply not be worth the cost/effort for you in your class,, and i'm sure getting the building details would be even more stressful as the group tries to protect its competitive advantage locally----that car falls into a fiercely competitive rally group where stage times are seperated by tenths/hundredths of a second usually between the top 3 cars your idea sounds reasonable as the stock rear brakes are a total waste, so any improvement should net you some returns
  10. oh my...that one is even better looking.... is it stock radiator/ p.s/ a.c friendly?---i doubt by the looks of it.....man i wish i had the option to take those out like you guys, but the Caribbean is a HOT place so ac and cooling are essential
  11. i have that exact manifold from wepr since 2007/2008 iirc....never had a single issue with it...this should serve you well my only hindsight "wonder" was that i didn't buy it in SS, but wasn't sure at that time, as many ep owners were having problems with different SS manifold producers/traders---so i didn't want to take any risks
  12. good read and well prepared project stu some decent times too...the car looks simply fantactic
  13. solid kits are always better for reliability plus the extra support brackets you will add....should last a long time thanks colin
  14. which kit is this exactly (link)?....is it stock radiator, p/s and a/c friendly? took a quick look at their site but only saw ct9 kits
  15. looks good boss...keep up the good work. yeah there are times you feel like tossing it, but its always worth it in the long run when the effort pays off . seems the tf turbo is quite a nice fit for the 4e...you set up reinforces this
  16. that 0.48 - 0.52 a/r turbine housing range is usually decent on a lot of "streetable" set ups with moderate sized turbos...it really allows you to use the stock rev range and even somewhat over
  17. strangely, many persons have said its preferable to have longer ratios with turbo cars, especially when mods are done in the past, many users searching for longer gearing, particularly when running in excess of 200bhp--seems this is also why the slightly longer 3rd/4th gear gt box is preferred over the ep91 box all that aside, i have driven in a 6 speed ep91 with ct9 and it felt very good , though admittedly, the 1st gear was pretty much useless lol, but did it sound nice going up through the gears
  18. @ SpikeyJp---this is normally the complete drive shaft and cv joint assembly and is very expensive to reflect that
  19. http://www.toyotagtturbo.com/forums/showthread.php?107657-EP82-GT-CCM-Demo-TAKE-2/page13 http://www.ukstarletowners.com/topic/71206-ep82-gt-ccm-demo-take-2/ gt2860rs iirc plenty info on phil's cars in those two treads....happy reading
  20. i did a manual conversion on my ep91 years ago using ep82 gt parts,,,most of the transmission parts are interchangeable...i hope someone can confirm, but i think some adjustment had to be done to the ep82 clutch pedal set up itself, as i recall i bought an ep91 specific clutch pedal set up later on sorry dude, this was a long time ago....over a decade, so memory of that time is now less clear
  21. like the others have said...most people seem to get evo or sti after owning a starlet personally, i kept my ep91 glanza and bought another vehicle as a daily a few years back
