I can buy the mosfets for £4.50 each so I'll just replace all 4. One is faulty as I've now tested them
-
When I say driver I mean the mosfet/driver/transistor, I'm pretty sure when I had the lid off last they had no marking on them or they have been scratched/attacked with a dremel, which is why a busted one for parts would be ideal. I'll get it out of the car tomorrow and get the lid off to confirm.

So driving to work on Thursday and my car starts misfiring bad, no power and neat fuel spewing out the exhaust!! So I abandon the car to sort out after work..... I Checked plugs and leads all good, with the amount of fuel coming from exhaust while running my thought is injector stuck open. After Investigating my problem was cylinder 2 and 4 injectors are constantly open. I disconnect my HKS PFC and actuator, plug just stock ECU in and it runs perfect. I've come to the conclusion that the injector driver on the HKS has gone bad probably because the ECU is 25+years old now and the cold we've had has just made the driver give up, resulting in a permanent ECU ground to 2 and 4 injectors (one driver for both as it's batch fire) anyone else had the similar problem and is there anyone with a busted HKS PFC that wants to part with it so I can recycle some components out of it.

You need to swap bellhousing first.

You'll find it already has the 256mm brakes. I put paseo brakes on my N.A. as they were bigger.

Could also be HT leads mine was doing same thing so i reduced the boost and it went away for a while then came back. Ended up being the HT leads breaking down but it felt just like boost cut.

Without looking there's no point in guessing. Could be anything.

Word of advice dude, glanza looms between 96-97 and 98-99 are quite different, I imagine gt turbos to have quite a few differences as well.
I had to cut an bigger hole in my 96 wing when putting a 98 loom into it.
To save hassle I would just get the right year looms
I had to do the opposite. Drill hole in centre fire wall

Toyosports one can as well come new very warped, have it checked out by an engineering shop first or you might end up having the same problem.

Hybrid CT9 with spirited/motorway runs 280-300mile to a tank. N/A gearbox so high revs at cruising speeds as well.

Bet it's down to the manifold face being warped. What manifold is it?
-
Imo if you change the dash loom then there is alot more messing about. Just get the correct plug for the ECU and rewire it so you use the original loom. It's better than changing dash boards and looms clocks stalks.......

I used a Vauxhall disc with twin pots and no skimming..... Just a spigot ring.

They are know to crack. These need bracing and the flange faces machining flat especially on the head flange, if there not flat they are known to crack the aluminium on the N/S of the head exhaust stud.

Corsa Gsi discs I believe.

How many wire on the TPS?

Yard was broken into not sure when within the last week and the took loads of stuff including a set of poorly painted genuine Desmond regamasters 15" in white. If you see any for sale please let me know.

If the engine is running and you disconnect the battery the alternator will keep the car running so yes to do it correctly you need to cut the live feed from the ignition to the alternator. You also need to have an in line fuse as close to the battery as possible if you have relocated to the boot.

I think they all come tapped I've had a 96spec FE turbo and 98spec FE turbo both have the FET cranks and both had knock sensor holes threaded.
Head gasket blown in all directions...engine swap or scrap
