Looks awesome mate, the front FMIC cutout looks tidy.

Me neither, however the bearings haven't turned up so assembly still can't begin. ;)

I had mine braced, done a good 12k miles with it (my brother has the GT now) and it's going pretty good. That's with genuine Subaru gaskets.

Get your ass in gear, I'm hoping to have the engine dropped in by the start of next week! Would have been sooner if I didn't have to spend the day in Wales tomorrow for a wedding though. ;) I got the headwork done at a bargain price, usually would cost around £300 but a friend of my cousins did me a good deal. PM me about the inlet, I'm not desperate to sell it and would rather keep it however the money would come in handy.

They do the job fine, I'd recommend the mild steel kits over the stainless though.

Strut braces surely help, I don't think C pillar bars and floor braces actually do though.

Sounds like a plan Zac. Prince I'll be back in Birmingham next month, I'll PM you when I'm there. Managed to make a little start on the engine build this evening. Picked these up earlier; Toyota engine gasket set, Toyota oil pump, Gates timing belt Also picked up the head and block from the engineers. The block has been deglazed, so it's ready to build. After a lick of paint of course! Cleaned up for paint Piston ring gaps on the new build = 0.418mm Ring gaps on the previous 4E build = 1.607mm ;) While I was painting the block, my mate gave the pistons a clean up. Block

I didn't see any pictures on it, saw a couple of links but no pictures. Sorted now anyway.

I don't think our moderating team is jealous, what a funny thing to say. Rules are rules, they are there for a reason - partly to protect our members from buying dud items. If you don't like the rules then don't post in the classifieds. Simples.

Cheers Zac, we'll meet up for sure once it's on the road! Quick picture of the beadwork while in progress, 3 angle valve grind was already done which baffled me a little. Maybe the FHE came like this from factory?! They're the only 2 (poor) pictures I managed to take, I'll get more once I have the head back!

I just had a look, a moderator unapproved it due to no pictures. I'll approve it for you now as long as you add pics ASAP!

Cheers mate, appreciate that! You can have a test ride in it if we ever meet at any meets etc. Top man! Yeah Sparky, the head is currently at an engineers being ported and polished, 3 angle valve grinds and valves are being reseated at the same time.

Huge thanks to Jayep91 who sorted me a set of ACL bearings, and I've ordered a new oil pump which means everything should be here by the weekend. A picture update! 4E removed and stripped The engine bay could do with a clean! 4EFTE & 5EFHE pistons with rods, the pistons are in the process of being swapped over Sent these off for a clean too: Leaving me with the new victim! It needs a good clean and a lick of paint as you can see. I'll be taking it to the engineers to have the bores deglazed before painting it. It will most probably go black this time!

Legend, thanks Dave!

I'm looking for the part number for an oil pump which has the seal on the pump, not the block. Can't really search properly as I'm not sure which engine came with this type, was it the early EP82? or maybe all EP82s?

Loving what you're doing with this Amjad!

Yeah, the LSD shorter OS shaft is a nightmare to get hold of. You may have a chance if someone has a buggered gearbox and maybe upgraded to an aftermarket LSD in a non-LSD box.

Chances are extremely slim tbh. I wouldn't bother unless it's dirt cheap.

I'll try to save you the hassle! My photobucket has gone weird, they won't show until the 24th as I've reached my limit this month! I'd have hosted them again but don't have the pictures saved. Hopefully! You have a PM. PM me details and I might be interested! Fingers crossed!

Order them from Camskills, you can just select the heat range! (NGK iridiums)

I can imagine, a TD04 would give an awesome response on a 5E. I'm sticking with the TD05 for now, will see how it goes. I may swap it over with a TD04 later to compare the difference.

Depends on the map imo, I'll go for 1.4 bar and I think it will be fine if Race-tech Ricky maps it. Cheers Josh, the wheels are staying! I've just dropped off the crank for a micro polish and I'm in the process of ordering ACL bearings, so it should be ready to be built soon hopefully!

5E-FHTE Build! Ok the decision has been made, it's time to go 5E - but not forged. I had an immaculate 5EFHE engine sat in storage just in case of an 'emergency' and now it's going to come in handy. I am currently having some work carried out: Mild head port and polish Valves reseated FTE pistons fitted to FHE rods I have ordered: Toyota OEM piston rings Toyota OEM engine gasket set Toyota OEM 3ETE flywheel (so I can use the 4E Spec paddle clutch) I still need a set of engine bearings which I'm struggling to find, ideally wanting a set of ACL duraglides. I'll also be using a 1.2mm ZEP h

I've heard good things about ECC, I've dropped them an email. I'll try Kon on Facebook, thanks bro!
