  1. Flywheel mate, marketing stunt to make people buy it
  2. I'm sure his is still running! Thread here: http://www.toyotagtturbo.com/forums/showthread.php?90151-Detonator-V-Boosted-4EFE

    4e valve springs

    Zisco ones are £240, well worth it. Only thing that puts me off them is they have no specs for them
  4. Nice one mate, I posted a link up to this very car not so long ago Please do write a step by step guide mate, as I would love to possibly get one myself at a later date.
  5. Would prefer to see WHP tbh, because some people lose a lot through the drivetrain, others don't, its a good way to see whos done what to ensure they get maximum power at the wheels. Also added to the fact that dyno's read WHP then calculate the fly hp.
  6. Got the DSD SLM ghost face series mate. I might talk to Mike and see if I can swap them because mine light up amber and would probably prefer light up white lol. I got Oil pressure, oil temp, water temp and volts, but going to get rid of the volts one and get boost
  7. If you buy an oil pressure gauge, it SHOULD come with all the necessary fittings to have a complete working gauge. Although you may need a sandwich plate. Some people T the oil pressure switch on the front of the block as it saves grinding the power steering bracket. I've got some STRI gauges and love them
  8. x2, but generally speaking I wouldn't want to see no more than 110-115 degC. Change your oil to a thicker viscosity if it gets too high.
  9. Fit a speedo converter.
  10. Think I need to move where she ^^^ lives!
  11. Don't necessarily need a new engine, but by the time the bottom end gets rebuilt you might as well just rebuild the whole engine. Then its a question of do I forge it or not? Its never ending lol.

    hks fuel rail

    Jeez fuck me thats some going! The idea of a larger fuel rail is to stop it from running dry. If you've only got a small rail, then the injectors will take all the fuel and the rail will run dry, if you have a larger rail theres more fuel in the rail, so if the injectors take x amount theres still fuel left over, hence they are "larger volume"

    hks fuel rail

    I got a Zisco one Matt, but don't have it with me at the moment to measure I thought it looked a bit square as well lol.
  14. Have you confirmed its not getting fuel? Have you removed the banjo from the fuel rail to see if its spitting fuel out? Have you checked for spark?

    hks fuel rail

    Sweet, that ends that argument lol. Do you know what the diameter is? Just wonder how it compares to the others out there.

    hks fuel rail

    Ah fair enough. The writing is the same on all their rails mate, the one on my dads skyline is the same lol. Ruins it tbh! SKH rather than HKS

    hks fuel rail

    From what I heard the HKS rail is just a bling item anyway. It's not actually any larger than stock. Never had one though so can't confirm, half the reason why I went for the Zisco one.
  18. Is it under full throttle acceleration?
  19. Heat is classed as energy, the more heat=more energy. As the particles of gas get hotter they get more excited, more energy so they move faster. You'll probably get a drop in spool time, but doubt it will be anything noticeable. As long as its a good material, not chinese shit then it shouldn't crack. It will just cool a lot slower than if there was no heat wrap.
  20. x2, think its £549 all in.
  21. Car is almost unrecogniseable! Had to look a couple of times to check it was a teg lol. Glad shes ok though man, lucky for her it was only a bit of a bash, could be worse atleast the cabin remained solid.
  22. Doesn't really work out cheaper tbh, if your getting a well spec'd car then it may do. When I was looking into it, just thinking is it really worth spending nearly £3k for a N/A? When for a little more you can get a starlet already in the country with a forged engine etc.
  23. If your going to be using the car in this cold climate might even be worth dropping to a 0w40.
