i moved my bottom pipe on the civic radiator to match the stock hose position and it works fine that way.
i know others that just ran the civic radiator as it is (just pulled the stock bottom hose across and pushed it on) and they ran fine with no issues
so it seems either way, there are no issues once the coolant flows properly (no hose kinks, etc)
-
vf28, vf34, vf35, one of these preferably or good old td05......forget the vf22 (laggier than the others mentioned)
-
personally, i'd stick with WEPR as they work directly with the ep91/82 and can make custom kits---seeing you are going with a top mount ct9

is oil on all the plugs?
yeah, may be get a compression test done, it will give your some indication of the pistons, pistons rings, headgasket health on each cylinder
oil seems to be reaching the cylinders somehow and is making it to the combustion cycle---this can also come from the valve stem seals leaking, but unlikely to be leaking in all 4 cylinders

check the ICV and automatic choke, sounds like either may be giving some issues
i'm not sure where these are located on a n/a starlet....on the turbo model the ICV is on the left side of the intake manifold, while the automatic choke is under the throttle body
-
as well, did you hook back up the vacuum hose that runs to the MAP sensor?
any diagnostic codes?
-
04947-33020
try a search with that part number and see what you find
-
how old is the wideband sensor?
fuel pump/wiring/relay failing?
do you have any engine diagnostic codes?
at 6psi the stock ecu should be well rich wit that set up

that's the only 5e manual i know of online

I have them on mine, I use DS1.11 pads.
General consensus is to avoid DS2500, but I feel like pads are such a subjective thing that it's hard to advise. I cannot stand Mintex, I think they're woeful, but plenty of people use them with some success.
i've never run ferodo, but i've hear positive stuff about them over the years
i run ebc, which i've heard both positive and negative reviews...in my personal experience, they work great
i totally agree with you, pads are very subjective items...sometimes you just have to try for yourself...i also think a big part of performance pads is to be patient and break them in properly to get the best out of them

not the glanza mtec discs that you are referring to, but i use the mtec astra front brake disc set up on my ep91 with the celica st202 twin pot conversion.
never had any issues with them.

has download option if you sign up it appears

may be that site can help...you can draw your own conclusions from there ---see dimension diagram and "type"

I'd say, you're nearly there for decent coilovers, grab a set of Meister Rs. Should be able to get a used set for that much, or save a little more and get them new.
i agree---preferably new
-
personally, i use and like the ultra racing rear ARB ---simple to install and no issues for a very long time now
lots of people run whiteline, so they must be very good as well
-
I've run both innovate (xd-16 and mtx-l) and aem (x series) widebands over the years. I've not had any major issues with either.
However, i find the AEM x series was easier to install and set up

pistons can be used if in good condition, but you will need to check the bore sizes of the 5e and the width of the 4efte forged pistons you have, that will determine your next step as they are a few scenarios from there
also, you will need new pistons rings, etc for the rebuild
the rods from the 4efte are too short for the 5e block---they wont work

It’ll be fine on the TD04 underfuel cut, naturally when you fit the Blitz ecu log your afr’s and listen for Knock as it won’t be set for your TD04 setup.
where i live, if he runs it as it is on td04 set up on any kind of decent boost, he will eventually break piston ringlands due to our low pump gas quality...i'm not certain in his region how it is and i don't believe in taking chances when it can be avoided. hence i'd suggest he gets the car tuned asap, preferably with the EMB as it can be custom to his set up
if you choose to use EMB, then you can run it with the stock ecu as there will be no real difference between the stock ecu and blitz ecu in overall power after the tune ----sell the blitz and make some money or put it down
if you choose to run the Blitz ecu, then do as robsr said and get it professionally checked for fuel and knock/ignition, as you have no idea what it's tuned for. this is the only way you will know if it is safe.
-
is your car tuned for this td04 set up?
-
lots of information and pics in there---hopefully you find something of worth to you

it appears to be a c52 box based on some older information about the "casing" at the top which holds the selector mechanism
52 had a ridge and hump at the end
56 was smooth with no hump at the end
this is just old hear say, i don't know if this is true ---my disclaimer

what operating system is on your computer? the newer operating systems don't seem to work with EMU
i also tried partitioning on the newer laptop (windows 8 at the time) as recommended by an IT friend, but that didn't work
i have to use an old laptop with XP to communicate with EMU...i think i've used vista in the past (long time ago, so can't tell you with 100% certainty)
-
i didn't connect them, i left them open as the kit did not come with any blanking plugs for the water ports
-
in summary, go with the 5e, its 100% worth it

lots of information in there regarding fmic intercoolers there---seems some of the pictures are missing
i personally run a greddy fmic for the ep91, which allows a/c, p/s, stock radiator, etc. to be kept in place, but i'm not sure if these still sell or have been discontinued
try WEPR
