Hey, im currently fitting the FMIC to my GT and im having a few probs. Firstly I cant seem to get this pipe in line, it seems to be catching on the radiator whenever i try and stopping it going in place, has any body else had this problem or is it normally a tight fit? Also does this look right for this side? Any help would be appreciated as I have never done anything like this before. Thanks

I'll pop down as well

Haha very true! To say how cheap they are I think they looked ok on my GT...

Ok cheers guys, I'll pop them on ebay, not to fussed what they make anyways just want rid.

These came on my EP82 when I bought it and there now sitting in my garage collecting dust. Any idea what there worth without tyres? The centre caps say TSW on them and there all in fairly good condition. I doubt its much but every penny helps Thanks for any help

Cheers for the offer pal, if nothing closer comes up then I will give you a shout

Yeah if no one can help then I'll have a bash by myself, I donâ??t have that many tools tbh :/ I've only messed about with exterior and little things myself but I am hoping to learn

I've got my front mount intercooler now and I was wondering if anyone located in South Yorkshire would help me fit it? Reason I ask is because I would like to learn how to do it myself in the process of fitting this one rather than take it somewhere to be done. Obviously I will throw some money your way, just thought it was worth asking? I'm in Doncaster and it would be fitted to my EP82. Any help would be really appreciated

Just gave mine a quick wash today

Doncaster, not been to any meets yet though ;)

Ok cheers guys I'll get saving, looking for about 180bhp really so my long term plan was to get one anyway. Next week it will be having the new fmic fitted, a full service with belts, plugs ect and just a good check all round really. Thanks

Hey, so I've decided to actually start and make a progress on my gt turbo finally after a year of ownership. Progress will be slow however due to being a student. I'm ideally looking to achieve the 180bhp mark and was wondering from the list below of what I need to get if I'm heading in the right direction. Most of this I've got from looking on here but just double checking before I start to order things. Also is the following brake set up suitable? Brakes - EBC Turbo Groove Sport front discs, EBC Yellow stuff front pads, Rear Discs and pads and TMD stainless steel braided brake lines. Engin

yeah I've just started looking about for parts now actually and they dont seem to easy to come by so it probli wouldnt be a wise move. Might just save up for a bigger spec gt actually.quite a few on piston heads atm for a decent price

yeah i think they are and thats my main concern with it really. looks preety decent for the money but i do love my gt :/ haha.

I've seen a mazda 323 4x4 (1999) for sale and im really tempted..its the 1.8 running 220 bhp with a hybrid turbo. i already have a gt turbo but really tempted to buy this.looks really nice. I was just wondering if any one has any previous experience with one of these or no what there like? reason im tempted is because moneys tight right now and i really cant afford to put much into my starlet to get it to that spec and the insurance is way cheaper for it. any advice on it would be apreciated?

ha i used to buy and sell cars at one point, saved up a few grand and finally got one got mine for £1700 with 54k on clock,12 month mot and running well. Its the limited edition one i think? with the switch for soft or hard suspension. or do they all have that?

cheers guys i will do, only work part time while im at uni so its a slow process but its all gunna get done, firstly gunna get it running how i want it then focus on looks afterwards

Cheers mate, so far its got the uprated manifold and decat system, rx7 top mounts and the ct9 turbo. thats it so far saving up the pennies tho haha
