funny onion

I'll start the list but i've never done the conversion myself but i think you'll need the following parts from a 4EFTE; - ECU - Oil filter housing - Sump - Exhaust manifold and turbo, decat and exhaust to suit - Injectors and fpr (can't remember if they're the same on the efe to the fte but i assume fte ones are bigger) - Some form of intercooler I'm not sure if the 4efe have a knock sensor but if not they would have the casting for one to be fitted. The fte ecu won't like it if there's no knock sensor signal. Bear in mind that the compression is higher too so don't run silly

Yeah it really was a monster, could've been a hornet but i'm not sure. I shit myself but luckily Sam was there so he got rid of it haha. Another update! Engine is out and she's been span around to give me more room all round to get in and take the remaining panels off. Engine is blathered in oil and so is the gearbox. Hoping to split the box off and mount it on an engine stand ASAP to assess the failure and see what's salvagable and get a block crank and head down to machine shop. So i'm currently stripping panels off the car to spray and then i'll tackle the roof/rear quarters, do

They did do an EP82 recaro interior but they're like hens teeth now

They're just short of 7 litres i think, they're actually a Caterpillar engine (the plant equipment stuff). Some torque I imagine

Might help if you said for EP82 or EP91

The cylinder heads have a number stamped on them too. I have a few different numbers. I think they're just casting marks to identify which moulds they were made in? i could be wrong...

HU13 0HB is the country park inn which is like a resturant/hotel right at the end of the foreshore. we should be parked up on the left before you get there though. Its a long straight road with car parking spaces on the left basically in front of the water.

hang on i'll just find out...

Yes sorry i'm more active on here when i'm at work (obviously very busy haha) Still good for 12 everyone?

Lol it looks like a celebrity with two beefy bodyguards 😆

😏

Yeah I thought I would chuck a few cheeky stickers on there when it's done ;) Cheers dude

Yeah they really are huge. The mastiff 3 costs about 3.5 million. Expensive toys haha.

For those of you that don't know me, i work at the Defence School of transport- the largest driving school in Europe. I work in the Quarter Master's department and basically our QM is leaving the army in a few weeks after 25 years service so he wanted a department photo shoot with some of our UOR vehicles before he leaves. I took the opportunity to sneak my car in before the shoot and get some pics hehe This vehicle is a Mastiff 3, and they're bloody huge! The vehicle on the left is a Wolfhound CIED (counter for improvised explosive devices) basically an armoured dog sec

Well i'm terrible at remembering to take photos but here's a few more! wing in primer started priming at masking the wing mirrors. i'd been handling them for ages (the glass wouldn't come out- the screws were so tight i was afraid they would just round off so i just masked the glass). So i was moving it about and sticking my fingers in to mask it etc. then this monster crawled out after a few dusts of primer. IT WAS HUGE! must have been a queen. Absolutely mortified! pic of the R888'S oooooohhhhhhh. going to give the wheels/tyres a good wash as they're caked in mud from u

my ep80...

No i have nothing against the car, but the previous owner was a stain on humantiy. He was trying to sell it, then it got impounded because he was drink driving in it, then he was giving it away but the new owner would have to pay the impound fee to get it out, then he got it out and was giving it away, then it was up for sale... literally plagued my facebook for weeks. i rarely comment on stuff on those facebook groups because of all the trolls but i ended up commenting on that... notifications for years.... lol good luck with it though be nice to see what you do to it.

no way! I knew i hadn't seen the last of that car... at least it's not in teh hands of the worlds biggest idiot anymore i suppose

Matt has one for sale on JDM EP i think dude

They will fit no bother if it's not lowered, but you'll struggle for lows on 16's they're a bit big, 15's or 14's are the best size for starlets but thats just my opinion

I can't even cope if there's a slight tapping/rattling noise i think this would drive me insane! but i like the idea

Why though? what's the point of them? they sound mega cool i judt don't understand lol. I remember it from initial d now but i've only seen it once.

Aye i have more pics to put on just always forget at home and can't do it at work. I will update with more pics tomorrow hopefully
