here we go again back to the build, right as you know the wheels were white then black and now i found the color i like, cadburys purple! heres some pics for you also i been bored thinking of whats next on the car and started adding to the stickers on my seat,

cheers fella,

yeah that was a good idea, as i was getting wet feet out on track, as the car leaks

so the a td 04 is the same fitment as the vf35?

i am looking at buying a new manifold but it is for a vf turbo, but would a td series turbo fit? or are the flanges different?

its on the back of the control box its just a little switch,

i did pop over to the stand, but no one was about,

just looked on mine and the one with the arrow is a vent and doesn't need to plumbed in to any thing, have a look on the back of the controler as it might need to be switched over to run a actuator, hope this helps

right after 1500 miles on my new engine and trax the car is looking better then ever, heres a pic of the car on track and i do have video of it but i havent seen it yet so i hope it ok when i get it now a week later its started to leak oil from the oil pump which i think is a seal gone which isnt to bad,

road kill! good luck mate and i will finish the bit for this weekend and get it back to you asap,

i cant see them :'(

just shows that there alot more to it then just power, but you were flying tho i give you that !

tell me about it! i couldn't put any power down though the corners, but the last run i had it was nice and dry

pass mate, i saw you over take some guy on the coner, then on next coner you were sideways !

no but i saw you get it sideways lol

can you please empty your inbox asap! cheers mark

right get a new bolt, and a tap and die set, and recut the threads before trying to bolt it back together! also empty your pm box!

i just rubbed them down with wet and dry and just use normal primer then a cost of paint, and sparky its wicked!!!

you dont need any head work but it all helps, and if you run a td04 on a std 5e that would be nuts! i dout there would be any engine lag, but i dont know of any one that has run std 5e pistons with a tdo4

yes there is, as far as i understand the 5e pistons have a +3cc dome on the top of the piston, which would give you a higher compression ratio, if you up the compression ratio you redues the engine lag, so to drive it off of boost, would feel like a n/a car,

you can just put pistons in, i think id works demo car was running std pistons but then it up to you how much money you want to spend! and i dont but there loads of info on the site about the 5e

look for the 5efe or the 5efhe engines, i think the 5efhe have got a better cams tho, and 5e pistons will fit in a 4e but the rods are longer in the 5e,

that a good reason to not break this car ! your so close fella dont stop now! did you sort out the brakes?

i think it to do with miss banzai,

right its back on the road and i have already racked up over a 100miles on the new engine! with no problems so far! i have only took it up to .4 of a bar of boost to start with and let the engine wear in before going nuts. i was hoping to do a oil change around 200 to 250 miles as then it should be getting there by then, once again i got to say a big thank you to AJ for the mot and all the help to get the car this far, all i can say is i owe you big time!
