Stock boost on hi is 9psi not 10psi plus, any breathing mods you've done or have ie filter exhaust, will increase the boost. The stock actuator is crap at holding boost so changing to an hks one will give you more control over it, we're not telling you to run lower boost than stock. Whats the point in asking for advice if you're just going to do what you think is right, go fit your fcd and rebuild the engine for fun.

Sounds good geo, I'd really like to see how it compares to mine, mine pulls best from 4.5k upto 6.5k, a less restrictive mani realy helps release the power up top, the stock one will give you a little less lag and better pull low down but the gains from a free-er flowing one up in the revs is so much better. I've never been keen on hybrids as they never seem to give that good figures, I'd want at least 220bhp and 200ftlbs yours certainly sounds good if it is making nice power at just 9psi, get it cranked up! PS I love the mess of your old turbo! :angry: I don't think mine was even that bad when it wasn't getting any oil.

Its real and its not the first, there's a couple that have been on tgtt. :angry:

That is shit, but good things could come of it.... did you get her number? ;)

The stock actuator arm does have a bend in it, get a pic of your engine bay so we can see if there's any form of boost control or anything which might cause the creep.

Erm find one you like, go to the bank take out the required amount of money, give the money to the owner and then you become the new owner! Simple really. ;) The first step - finding one, you can do by looking through the cars for sale here, pistonheads, ebay etc

To be honest I'm not entirely sure, but I think the only difference is the colour and that one says blitz and t'other says ogura!

Slight facelift for my glanza today, so it was off with the old and on with the new; Old vs New (96/97 vs 98/99 spec) It should have been easy to fit as I've had the old bumper on and off plenty of times, but the new one sits slightly differently which meant the intercooler pipe, relocated filter and coling panel all made it a pain in the arse to get on properly. However I'm happy with it and it will look even better when I've cut the bars out the bumper and got a splitter for it. :B Next I'll be painting the sideskirts and rear bumper white just so it all matches nicely... Also just to prove how good I am at saving money for my travels I managed to get a Blitz active clutch for quite cheap , basically the same as an ORC 309D which is what I was wanting, unfortunately it won't be fitted for a while but at least I can say it looks nice. ;)

I'd be interested but I'm not going to be able to buy it for like 4 months when I get back from my travels. I'll be buying loads of bits from mc chu then too.

I'm sure the guy at ava was meant to be putting two 4efte's in a starlet, that was over a year ago I heard about that, so maybe it didn't happen in the end.

ecks had them in his old glanza too, I want a pair. ;)

Yeah its totally normal, the stock bov is a recirculating one and dumps into the air intake. Now that you've removed the stock air box you can hear it through the apexi intake.

Damn, better not put the venoms on for the summer then. ;)

I have tsw's on my glanza, does that mean its ruined? ;) \/

True, I wasn't meaning it in a "lets bitch about rotas" way again, I meant that out of all the rota design's there's a style everyone will like.... especially since their all copies of proper jdm wheels!

Nah you shouldn't get any lights come on, its just a crappy temp sensor to warn when the cat's cooked.

Yes. I've stil got the metal pipe down the side of the engine without either end attached.

LOL! So blunt but true! ;) Have at look at some of rota's wheels, everyone loves them.

You have my humble apologies, I feel most silly!

You're close sparky, they're RS watanabes not really that rare, quite common on the jdm starlets when they get shipped over. The style is very common too.

Sounds like its possibly being starved of fuel, has the rrfpr got a gauge so you can check the fuel pressure?

10 mins if you plan on getting very wet! I'd advise draining the coolant first.

Jay has a tutorial on tgtt, but as enzo said it is really easy; http://www.toyotagtturbo.com/showthread.php?t=422

Yeah well, you got to do something when your bored. ;)
