J25GTi

Well, here she is, picked her up last weekend as a non runner. Total travelling time of 13hrs to get there and back! Pulled it on A frame which was suprisingly easy! Was bought as a non runner due to a cracked head, so the first thing I did when i got her back to the garage was start to take her apart! As you can see it has a brand new wepr manifold and a speedvision hybrid. Im picking up a new head for it this afternoon, and gonna figure out what to do with all that cabling around the back of the engine and hopefully give it a good degreasing as the rocker cover seal has never been replaced and has pissed oil out everywhere! Found the oil feed bolt on the turbo has been stripped so spent a few hours this morning drilling it out and bolting through it etc. So hopefully thats that one fixed too! Hopefully this weekend she should be on the road

Or just lower the boost slightly lol

yeah ideally i want ones that have been tried and tested, because i dont have the time, enthusiasm or money to be piss arsing about with it. well saying that, alan jeffery will be piss arsing about with them, and i dont want to have to pay mega bucks for engineering work because they dont fit etc. />http://speedvisioncps.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=3&products_id=210 do the scat ones need notching?

aye but they are like 600quid, its a bit outside my budget lol

Yeah, i pretty much assumed they were the same, pics look the same and all the details are the same. But to buy them from maxspeeding is 100quid cheaper... Now has anyone you know of used them? any issues with notching etc? Im welll aware you get what you pay for, but if they have been tried and tested i wouldnt be too bothered about using them!

Seems like im struggling to find 1 5efhe conrod, so im looking into forged rods, Now obviously there is pec + scat etc, but ive just spotted these rods and wondered if a) anyone has used them and are these both the same rods? />http://www.tm-developments.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=31_32_8&products_id=422&zenid=ggbg6cb3a5u3qmvhcn46mga3m2 />http://www.rallycarsforsale.net/clas/index.php?ct=fsrc&md=details&id=55024 they look the same to me? but at over £100 cheaper than the others it seems like a good buy?!?
