Pictures of the car now:

Pictures in Surrey @ Fusion Motorsport

i think i may have bud, cant really mind lol

Well guys, after a long as 2 days or so it feels .. the car is finally mapped.

We left on the Thursday at 10.30am and had a hotel booked this time instead of doing the journey in 1 day. I cant tell you how glad i was that we did that, we arrived about 7pm that night and hit the bar .

On the Friday morning we made our way over to meet Ed @ Fusion Motorsport to fit the 550cc injectors and install the E-Manage Ultimate. About 12pm we were doing good time, Ed had the Ultimate installed and didnt quite make our rolling road time at 12pm as we did get over till about 1.20pm but all was fine ;). Finally the car made the rollers and had to be taken off ... the boost was becoming infinite and was wanting to rise as far as it could.

Back to the workshop and all it was, was the actuator pipe .. because it wasnt sitting at a 90 degree angle means it wasent opening up correctly .. who said TD04's were just straight fits with SOME modifications? ;).

Around 4pm, after Surrey Rolling Road stayed open just for because of my dedication on driving 436miles to use them and Ed we got her on the rollers once more.

FINALLY we were pulling in some good results, we made 257.4bhp@1.2bar with 230FTLBs ;) which is obviously very impressive for the boost we were running. The plugs were restricting it to that as we were going for 1.4-1.6bar. Happy enough with that we did some fine tuning at lower speeds.

Firstly i cant thank enough Ed @ Fusion Motorsport for what he did and to get the car mapped that day, he is deffinently a legend and highly recommended, also a huge thanks to Surrey Rolling Road for staying open to allow us to use the rollers. Lastly a big thanks to ToyTuning who whom none of this would've been possible

Pics to follow later on today.

Anyway around 250-270bhp Well over 300bhp per tonne anyway

Updated:

Well its been a long long wait for the beast but finally went and picked her up today for the run in. I cant stress enough at how long of a top job Kevin and Toby and ToyTuning have done to it. It exceeded my expectation in everyway!! Heres a pic of the engine bay and my old man having a wee look haha and also a couple of Glanzas i saw down there.

Update:

Well i thought it was time i went and updated all my threads. The cars expected back this month once the final parts arrive. It took this long due basically due to the complicated nature of my build and the amount of work that i needed.

Heres my latest addition to my parts:

Cant wait to get this fitted once i have her back

Good turn out for a change, better than the last Ayrshire one anyway which is good to see.

I'll be at the next one with mine, estimated to have mine back in 2 weeks time :angry:

Iain

Ill second that thought Wullie.

I remember leaving the last scottish meet and hearing the Celica, sounds the absolute bollocks!!!!

Iain

defo Stevie boy!! Ill nip down when shes ran in bud.

Thanks for all the kind comments.

Iain

As Wullie said mate, would never of swapped a starlet or glanza of any kind for this. Hope u have better luck with it.

Well lads, ive not been on here a while for many of reasons. Mainly the starlet is under going a high hp build @ ToyTuning just now, heres abit of my story about it.

Thanks for looking at the progess of the GT. Ive owned her for since roughly March 2006, so nearly 2 years of owning her and spending all my hard earned pennys. It was 2 of my mates who owned the car before i got the opportunity to finally buy it when it appeared back up for sale with me first at the queue with cash in hand. First time i drove the car my knees were shaking as i had never drove anything so quick as it, but it brought a huge smile to my face.

Over the time of owning her ive spent my wage every month on her and even leaving myself short some months. With me and my dad doing most of the work to the car whenever she needed it, services, fitment of new parts and my dad helping me out when i got stuck as well, so really i owe my dad alot of credit towards the car.

On 19th Nov, the money situation changed and i decided it was time for high HP, so i was in contact with Toby for about a month before the 19th and told him what i wanted and asked how much i needed. Me and Tobs had long chats about which route was best for what i wanted and finally arranged the date for my drop off to ToyTuning. I was always particular about who i took my GT to and always looked for them to be knowledgable and Kevin knew everything!! So i couldnt be anymore impressed for meeting him for such a short-time but unfortuently not having the opportunity to meeting the man whose making it happen.

Im looking to really get the car noticed abit within the Starlet community and possibly a few other areas out there. Ive been in touch with a local cruise website who are extremely keen to see the car and feature it when its back, so hopefully thats just the start, but my main aim at the moment is for a calender spot.

The car wouldnt of been possible today if it wasent for everyone out there viewing this thread. Having my questions and problems answered and cured .. made it possible for the GT to be were it is now. Tobs was always there also whenever i had a fault or a new problem discovered, he assured me it would be solved and he would find the answer, everytime it was solved and he found the answer whenever i asked the questions. So a big thanks must go to the owners club and ToyTuning.

Heres the spec and some current pictures of the GT after abit of changing and upgrading . The latest update is the Blitz LM FMIC (thanks to Dave):

Pictures from when the FMIC was fitted, heres how it all started:

After a decision, i wanted to cut the bumper as i was going to spray the Blitz logo onto the cooler, thought i may aswell show it off

Gave the bitch a right good seeing too, with a wet hot sponge and some shampoo ;)

Pictures of the car at the docks after fitting Rosco's WEPR Fmic

thanks alot for the comments ill post up the print out when i get it remapped.

thanks alot mate, i thought so as well, better than those wolfrace alloys anyway lol thanks for the comments also guys.

next mate is to fit my biggers injectors and remap for my S-AFC2. After that would be a WEPR TD04L kit.

Iain

Well i got my order of my FMIC from Dave and all i can say is it was well worth the wait!!

Here are the pics of the progess of me and my old man fitting it outside the house lol

This is how it all started, got the box out and the instructions and my Japanese for Dummys handbook.

Next we got the car stripped at the front.

Pipework on ready for the cooler to be fitted

The old man helping with mounting the cooler while i take a wee break lol

Intercooler piping from under the car.

Engine bay with the TMIC removed and FMIC piping, could do with a clean mind you.

Had to twist the air filter up to lean ontop of the cooler.

Well after a long hard think, i know its not to some members taste, but i cut the front bumper to show the intercooler as you can see u can see the cut marks but ill get that fibreglassed and resprayed, this is how it looked before i nipped down to halfords for Satin Black spray paint for the BLITZ logo.

Decided id be nice to her as well and gave her a right good seeing to, with a sponge and car wash of course!

While i was in halfords i thought it could for a square front plate also, and here is how see looks now.

Big Thanks to Dave for supplying the FMIC also .

All opinions are welcome

Iain
