EP82 TMD rear beam bushs / Defi EGT/ Cruise gear knob
A L 3 X replied to abbott's topic in Starlet Parts For Sale
Not trying to spam your thread, but am I right in thinking the cruise knobs are quite small? Mine came in a bag rather than box from rhd Japan and I wanted to make sure mine was genuine -
Explain the second bit again lol? Erm and its just a cheap one ATM until next month, I'm assuming the spike over is the fact the controller is holding the wastegate closed longer than the boost tee did and so the gauge can't react quick bough as the Ebc gauge doesn't show a spike. I think the gauge is accurate though as the gauge with my old ecu used to read 0.8 bar but if I turned it up any more it would fuel cut indicating 0.85 was reached? Think I'm gonna get one of those depo stepper motor boost gauges with the manual and digital readout in the corner of they're any good?

There is a pipe from the inlet mani that tees off, one to boost controller as you said and one to the side port of wastegate. I've kinda got it sorted anyway, but it's like with the controller set on 1 bar I get 0.8 bar, and at 1.2 bar I get 0.95 to 1 bar, reckon ill try a 0.8 spring and then if not get a better Ebc?

I've tried a few places, craigs will do it single line if its a 5 digit plate, im looking at getting a private plate with 6 digits, but need it to be on one line to make sense lol -

Lovely car gltwts Could you measure your rear plate for me please, or tell me where to get one with it printed on one line? -

Only gave it one boot mate as I'm wanting to check the fuelling first, it didn't do it on that occasion but then again it's piss wet through so due to lack of traction 1 bar in second wasn't easily achieved lol -

Haha deffo worth doing an ignition timing, seems a bit smoother an easier boosting but may just be me, not hammering it though till I can find someone with a wideband, proving difficult though and I'm not gonna be able to affor done till next month lol -

Micky what you thinking to rrfpr and ecu, I assumed it weren't needed? My mate isn't sure if his wideband is working right, dunno who else has one so think ill have to get one if not :/ -

Nah it ain't fuel cut is at 0.85, so was right on the limit lol -

Any reason why? I hear that's not a good idea and they confuse it? Boost at 0.8 on the old ecu did the same thing once or twice I'm sure, that was with old plugs, leads, dizzy cap and rotor arm however -

Ah cool, ignition timing was slightly out, have set that and gapped the plugs at 0.9 as weirdly after checking with a new gauge set one was 0.6, the other 0.7, other 0.75 and I can't remember the last but they're all a nice equal 0.9 Just need to make some det cans tomorrow, find someone with a wideband and hope that's all ok Checked cam timing as well, spot on an cam gears are aligned perfectly together also -

Okay I will check the ignition timing with the jam ecu in then if it makes no difference. It should only be running as rich as any other p n p ecu, and they aren't massively black just a small carbon deposit around the base of the threads ill upload a pic. Mike, good idea actually, could you pm me a price and the soonest you could check it? -

A L 3 X replied to A L 3 X's topic in Ignition & Fueling
Yeah I think so, will do that and widen the plug gaps i think as some people are saying 0.6 standard, and 1.1 for modded, others saying 0.8 to 0.9 for 1 bar boost, and the general concensus is wider is better without spark blow out so i reckon 0.9mm should be ok? One question, when checking timing with the timing gun, when you paint the marks white are they just for reference, or do they affect how the light shines at it, as i may have painted the marks slightly out, but i was looking against where the actual marks were on the casing when checking. -

Apparently according to a google search too small gaps can cause missing? I just wanna sort this bang out lol Amjad, yeah I'd guess so but the reason I left it is I didn't want the jam to advance it too much? But I guess the timing is mapped to the fuelling on them? I just wanna so everything to stop the abnormal backfiring -
I'd hope so lol
