  1. So we finally got a glanza! went to buy an LSD gear box off torturedglitch in doncaster (lovely lad) and got chatting, came to a deal for the whole shell, including most of what was left of the car barring a few things. Convinced the better half Sam (flaminsam) to chip in and go halves and start a new project with me, he agreed without a lot of persuasion. The shell itself is a silver 96 spec ep91, but she's been rubbed down and filled in places ready for a full respray. A rough list of what she came with; - complete Engine barring exhaust manifold (debatable working order, will cross that b
  2. I have the jperformance exhaust system and I love it, sounds immense on boost but not too loud for cruising. Also got the decat up for sale now ;)
  3. Have a spare set of pistons and rods I think possibly? Better off just buying a complete bottom end I reckon :/
  4. Check my for sale thread mate. No shaft play or smoke. Pm me.
  5. Ceramic coating drops engine bay temps a lot, but dramatically increases the exhaust gas temps, which in a way is what you want. The internal temperature of the manifold will be a lot higher, but it also slows the cooling process after you turn the car off as the cermic has a very very low thermal conductivity. Bear in mind that if you have a wideband sensor in the decat, you may wanna move it further down the exhaust as it will fry for sure.
  6. i had a vf28, was very laggy compared to a td04...
  7. was mint! nice to see a few faces
  8. Does look fit! You have the same wastegate as me . I had a 0.8 and a 1 bar spring in together and it boosted 0.8 instead of 0.6 which was slightly better. But in the long run the best way to do it is run a boost controller in line from the signal to the bottom port to the top port. Ie t piece into the signal from the compressor housing, boost controller, then modified signal to the top port. I just used a buggered manual turbosmart one off Kurt and it worked a treat
  9. Oooft might have to bring mine down, first motorway drive since engine went back in and td04 went on ;)
  10. May sound daft but where is this? Weather is supposed to be beaut
