Well after 12 years and a lot of badgering from Mr Bridgett I decided to remove the bump strips!! was not as hard as I expected using the hair dryer and the autobrite tar and glue remover!!

I highly recommend the autobrite stuff that Dean sells on hear that is very good stuff and imo better than the autoglym and mags stuff so easy to use and makes so little dust its unreal!! I use cherry glaze polish with a topping of dodo juice wax. I have yet to attack it with the machine polisher tho with the autobrite restore stuff that might be todays job!

I know its for Renault but FEK me its BRILL!!!! <iframe width="853" height="480" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/4C5SgA9d9gQ?list=PLlH1HNPlQbpO9BA8n-tz7W1n8zkIM6rTV" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Cheers lads! I'm running a AEM stand alone that does full boost control and boost by gear and a hole load of other stuff but I leave all that to the tuner to sort out am just a grease monkey lol

As above anyone on hear?

Cheers Phil Well we have got some more tuning done now! we've taken it up to 1.5 bar but stopped at that as the fuel system and the N/A inlet mani and throttle body was getting restrictive but we did manage to make 226whp and 223lb-ft torque! on the Dyno packs which im over the moon with it drives so clean and im making 1.5 bar of boost before 4000rpm witch is insane for a TD05 16G on a 4E. Heres some picks from the tuning session. These switches are all running on the ECU but at the mo only one works and thats the left one! 0.4bar low 135whp boost flick the switch for

Cheers!

No we have not set that up yet it just shreds the tyres instead! Yep it's a Beat on the ramp awaiting its engine putting back together, it has a proper lid on it too which are quite rare I am told too.

Not if set up properly and I have some good supporting stuff too that all helps!! It sure ain't laggy lol

It could be but that looks a lot heavier around the narrow bit than the bit you have found. I still think valve retainer but I could be wrong! it should not have been there what ever lol

Cheers lads! Theres more on my build thread but in a nut shell, cruise cams and spring, slightly ported head, wiseco pistons and scat rods, TRD head gasket, coil on plug, full stand alone ecu. and a bit more lol I will put more videos up later on!

Well we got some more tuning done today!! TD05 16G making 1.5bar before 4000 rpm! <iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/RDm973kW_vo" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> We had to stop at that tho because the N/A inlet and Throttle body was getting restrictive and the fuel system needs more work!

Thats a spring retainer for sure but where are the collets?? only thing I can think of it was dropped in last time the engine was stripped but how the hell do ya miss one of them??

Ive been clocking em up over 12 years lol

I have put 115000miles on mine and it had 15000 on it when I got it!

Cheers mate!!

Cheers mate I have always been good with my hands (not trying to be big headed about it!!) but reading and stuff im s**t with thats why I make stuff up as I go lol its worked well for me up to now!

My hobbies are mostly expensive ones! metal working and fabrication work, wood turning and general wood work, mountain biking when I have time to fit it in, learning to play the guitar again after 15 years off having lessons! I also spend a lot of time working on race cars and stuff at my mates and I really enjoy that. Thers other stuff too but it would take me all day to list em! This is some of my wood stuff I made this with no plans or drawings I just made it up as I went ive also never had any lessons or anything its all self taught. I made these for my

Your brackets and bolts will be fine on that the bushes are the main thing and they are there. As Pig666eon says see if you can get the rubbers, washers and nuts for the drop links too.

The GT one is defiantly bigger than the N/A one I have 2 or 3 kicking about and often thought about putting one on mine but never got round to it so I was guessing the Glanza one would be the same as the GT one but there seams to be more on the glanza thats the same as the N/A than I thought! Im going to double check the GT ones if I remember too lol! but the drop links are different.

The Glanza ARB will fit but you will need the clamps to the body and bushes, the drop links are different too you will need the ones to match the ARB ends some have ball joints at the end of the ARB the others just have the rubber bushes same as the N/A ones. The glanza ones are thicker than the stock n/a ones so would make a difference but not at much as something like a White line or TRD one.

This is mine just need to move that fing big battery out of the bay!!

That much timing would show up In EGT temps tho if its hot enough to melt pistons that would show in the EGTs clearly. The turbo would be mad hot too.

With Will at RDT that I use he offers a full pre dyno inspection, bore scope to check every thing is good in the cylinders, checks plugs, static timing, cooling system for leaks and so on and thats around 60 quid if you have that done before the dyno there is no disclaimer to sign and generally if its built to a good standard he dont bother ether but if its all bodged together then yes you have to sign one!
