    My 1994 Black GT Turbo STOLEN

    Posted

    Wouldnt of been able to get low loader where it was parked, its a very narow road.

    must have been watching it as it is sort of tucked away only in view by neighbours.

    making me more weary as i dropped him off with a set of wheels the night before and often meet up in my car in that area. :D

    4EFE exhaust dimensions

    in Intake, Turbo & Exhaust

    Posted

    Hi, is there anyone who could give me some advice on Back Box bore dimensions.

    Currently i have a 5E 4-2-1 OBX manifold with end flange of 2"

    that its then mated to a cat pipe and centre section with silencer that is also 2"

    Then it goes to the Tailpipe (no silencer witch has a 2.5" bore).

    This is very loud (has failed MOT on excessive exhaust noise).

    Now my question is will there be a significant loss of power if i install a back box from a 4efte that has a 3" internal bore?

    Or would i be better of getting a custom 2" bore back box made?

    Thanks for help in advance, Luke

    ECU's for the EP91 n/a

    if you guys are using the glanza inlet and tb then your powerband will be altered, its the same set up as the 100ps 4efe where peak power (bhp) is at 6500rpms aprox . there for you need to change the quartz resister in the ecu to compensate,

    valve float starts on these engines at around 7400rpms so watch out,

    Will the ecu know what to do will air fuel mixture's ect after 6.2k rev's though?

    Edit: just relised asad has answerd this one

    the uk spec n/a has the same rods as a glanza so they are capable of well over 100bhp

    ive got a ported fte head with uprated valve springs on my n/a, and without some form of management i wont get the best out of it, but it does pull alot harder upto the rev limit than before i had it put on, i also have 5efhe cams to go in next time chris comes down.

    the 5efhe ecu will plug into a uk spec loom, but wether it will work is a different story. Somebody tried the corolla ecu in a glanza S and it wouldnt work, so not sure the glanza s ecu and corolla ecu are compatible with the uk spec n/a.

    are you sure about the rods, i was under the understanding that it was the jdm spec 4efe that had the 4efte rods?

    wasnt someone selling a aftermarket n/a ecu on hear a while back that you where going to get? cant remeber what it was now.

    Hmm that is somthing to look into the only thing that concerns me abit is the higher you rev you start to get valve float!!! i understand that the glanza has stronger valve springs then the N/A so will alow the car to rev alot higer without getting valve float....I could be just jumping the bang wagan abit but theres no point in trying to get an engine reving higher if you arnt going to benefit from it!....Tink i've got some reading to do lol

    Yes, if you put a glanza v head on the 4efe it can rev higher, but without an ecu its pointless. you need an ecu that will accomidate the extra 1k revs.

    as far as i know the only toyota 4efe ecu that maps to 7200 is the rare jdm 4efe ecu that geo has said he may have a spare.

    but you wouldnt be able to utilise this inless you have the v head ect.

    worth noteing that the jdm 4efe had thicker rods. might be that the uk 4e are too week for 100ps????

    Haha we must of been thinking the same thing at the same time lol

    haha :)

    Agree standred injectors should be fine for alteast 100bhp along with a fpr the stock N/A ecu should adjust its self to what ever mods you have but as said it would be best to get the fueling checked to be on the safe side.

    The only think im not sure about is whats the rev limit on the glanza S ecu? if its higher then that could be a thing to look into because i've noticed when i fitted glanza TB and inlet the power is all at the top of the rev range (still pulls like fook all the way to 6200rpm so if the glanza S ecu revs to say 7250rpm (like the glanza V) it clould give more power at the top end?

    pretty sure that the glanza s has same engine as the uk spec 4efe but with a corrola mani and different ecu for the higher octain fuel.

    the rare JDM spec 4efe that came std with 100ps (glanza s ~80ps?) shared the same head as the 4efte which has stronger valves and springs to accomidate the higher 7200 rev limit. this has a different ecu to other 4efe n/a variants.

    not sure about the cams though?

    yeah gotta adjust it a tad :) when you say clockwise, do you mean from the front? or from the back?

    from the back.

    ive confused myself i little bit :)

    As your looking at it from the front of the car you turn it anticlock wise.

    i did it whilst the car was idleing, if its the wrong way the engine will just cut out, so you know to do it the other way.

    hope this helps.

    yeah thats the sod luke, but its the orangey yellow eml light aint it?

    like this:

    The link just sends me to google images main page mate.

    might be becasue im at work and the websites blocked.

    before ive adjusted the tps so its on the bare limit to cutting out, and it would be poping and banging everywhere with that "EML" light flickering evertime it pops.

    adjusting it clock wise stopped it all together, when adjusting it anti clockwise, it would cut out the engine and would not start when the key was turned upon re-starting the engine.

    From what i can assume the TPS has been hit or nudged by something to rotate it in a anti clockwise direction??????

    (happened to mee too as its quite fidily to tighten up)

    Think this happened to mine if its the same thing.

    when you change gear does it sort of back fire and the gearbox looking switch warning light flickers?

    I adjusted the throttle possition sensor clock wise" and this stopped.

    so might just need slight adjustment on the TB and TPS.

    hope its just as simple as that mate!

    riots in and around london :o

    i saw on the news it got as far as gloucester

    tbh i wouldnt be surprised if it was just a normal night in pill, newport last night

    Nothing is going on in gloucester, there were rumours and shops closed early ect.

    but a mate drove through the town center last night and said nothing was going on.

    in times like this, i think the news is more BS than truth.

    Edit: my mistake, around 5 oclock in the morning poeple started to burn down a derilict building next to gloucester college.

    Changing EP91 n/a Rear Springs

    in Chassis & Suspension

    sorry for hijack,

    i decided to put my Apex rear springs on the other day, and found after dropping the car off the jack that the top coils are touching. around 4 of them

    i installed them so the tighter coils are at the top. have I put the springs on right way round? :D

    iirc it doesnt matter which way round the coils go, when i put my spax springs on the rear a few coils where touching but it got past the MOT no problems.

    its just becasue there progressive coils.

    been to two free parties in my life.

    one was next to a train station, obviously wasn't a very good idea, police kicked everyone out by about 10pm haha

    other was in a dirty factory in london, cunt charged us a fiver each, not exactly free :D

    rig was absolutely awful, so i fucked off after about an hour and one balloon :)

    Haha, joke. :o party starting before 10 pm ?

    not seen police shut down a party.

    seen them try by using "force" (pepper spray, dogs) but outnumbered like 10 to 1!

    You ont be dissapointed going to a party around The Ridgeway area.
