external wastegate? deping on set up big brakes!!! oh, and my kit thats in the for sale section with everything youll need

on my autobahn fmic i just cut the pipe that runs along the back/underneath the cooler to the desired length and used a 90 degree angle off the turbo

yeah mate a lot higher. im 6ft and i didnt like it at all. well high up. wrx scoob seats sit you low down, thats what i used to have

if there ep3 ones they fit, but they sit quite high up, i had some sold to another member, nice seats

i dont know the difference mate, they fit a glanza if anyone else can tell you more

ive got a lovely set of magnecor leads for sale

came asking the wrong forum if you wanted an answer different to a gt/glanza bud lol

aye i know, the only ek4 i would have however is a vti or jordan. wouldnt be happy though till i had a ek9 lol

aha im looking at the ek9 mate, not intersted in an ek4. love the ek9, awesome looking

im looking towards an integra and the civic jordans/ek9/vti-s's

sound job

^^^ i agree, but when i havent had work for nearly 4 months, and then miss my first day at a new job because cars bolloxed dont look good. managed to change the order in time before it was sent thank god. had to pay more but must be worth it. 1.2mm athena sound ok to everyone?

i need the car back today mate. havent got a choice in the matter. got to put that gasket in it, then think ill see what happens with it. if i keep it ill change the head gasket in may, should be able to afford a run around then.

http://www.fensport.co.uk/Parts/Model_40/Category_12/ thats the head gasket i bought, the trd one

so the trd head gasket is wank then basically? fuck me 100 quid that was

thing is i wouldnt be able to break it, id need it gone and a new car within the same weekend. and its not really something you can take to a garage and say take that in px for your astra vxr is it lol i do fancy a s14 or something though, can insure it cheaper than my v, how stupid is that, 260 brake rwd drift machine over a 130 brake 1.3 turbo.

after fitting my new engine last week complete with new freshly skimmed head, oem headgasket and new head bolts from tmd, and putting my td04 on this morning the head gasket decided it didnt want to create a seal between the water way and piston 3. amazingly timed so that i had to ring in to say i couldnt make it to work on my first day at a new job. felt such a tool. ive stripped it down and ordered a trd .6mm headgasket off fensport which i have been told will be here by tomoro (if not someones getting an arse kicking) its really got me down though to be honest, and its left me wondering if the car will be able to take doing 25mile a day comuting to work. now its not like ive got the boost sat round at 1.2 bar, its on a 10psi spring on the external wastegate (about .55bar) and i have uprated the fuel pump. my plans were to get it mapped on emb up to 1 bar. but im really doubting its abuility to take it after today. ive even considered going to the dark side and getting a teg dc2 or an ep3. but i just have spent so so so much money, and more importantly time on this car for little result i mean its had a £600+ td04 kit, plus the wastegate, plus the turbo. and i know i wont get half that back if i were to sell it separate from the car. what do you think i should do? sell up and get something like a teg or simialar or stick with the V for a bit longer and see how it goes?

as above lads, im changing my head gasket and cant get the bottom pullys off for shit, only put them on a week ago as well. havent got a puller or whatever has anyone got any tips before i break something? asap if poss please

im running .5 on standard reg with td fuel pump. i did think when the head bolts came they looked a bit sketchy tbh. should be ok at .5 on that fuel set up shouldnt it

if it wasnt done properly it would have gone pretty much instantly though wouldnt it? its not using stock turbo anymore, and it is a stock head gasket

no i know it wont, but its gonna be more reliable at the end of the day, and i just replaced the head gasked with a skim on the head, whole new head, gasket and bolts last week

lol its not a case of being a poof, just the money. start a new job tomoro and cant afford the beast any more. look out for some for sale threads. does anyone had a rough idea what its worth?

ive started a new job, so cant be doing with it breaking all the time, in reality i cant afford to sell it because of the amount ive spent on it. but im thinking of going to the dark side with an ep3

it pushed the water into the expansion tank. gotta be the head gasket i think. had enough of it now tbh, who wants a white v?

i did that with a long screwdriver lol does work a treat though
