Charlotte's GT Advance- Massive overdue update.
funny onion replied to funny onion's topic in EP80/EP82 Progress Blogs
got them made up at a place called direct gaskets (i think that's what they're called) in Hull. try googling industrial gasket suppliers round your end and see what comes up, you would probably need to take in a current gasket/ make a template of what gasket you want made up. really would recommend it though, especially for custom gaskets. -

yeah if you look at the pick above of the cylinder head with no gakset/manifold on it, you can see where my oem one had been blowing on 1 and 4 on the edges, pretty pants tbh. this new gasket is 3mm thick, to allow for any warp on the flange of the manifold (sam's seems to be ever so slightly warped- stainless toyosports td04 manifold). made a huge difference when i put this one on, couldn't believe it. if you want me to pick you one u and send it in the post let me know -

originally got two made up to start with at a local gasket place, one for me one for sam. because it was the first time one of these gaskets had been run through the computer at the gasket place it cost around £30 for the two, but now could get them at about £10 each i think, they're absolutely spot on, 10000x better than oem gaskets imo thinking of getting some turbo-manifold and turbo-downpipe ones made up too and do the full set -

don't worry, it will go bang sooner or later as i keep telling people lol i'm a very unlucky person. the thread will appear at some point in the future, but hopefully i won't be as skint as i am now as i'd love to go 5efte, that would be epic haha -

yeah i wash the whole car with autoglym body shampoo and dry it, then to get rid of smears i go over it with mr muscle, takes 2 mins and it's cheap as chips and does the job

quick photo of the rolling road printout, had to pull it off the rollers because it was horrendously lean (as you can see from the graph) which was a shame, but sorted it now running 3 bar of fuel pressure and it seems happier than ever had some custom manifold to head gaskets made up as mine was blowing really really bad and it sounded like a tractor, was cheaper to have 2 of these made up than to get one oem one from toyota. old gasket vs new gasket; gave her a service as well while sam played with his new intercooler. fresh oil, oil filter. only just received the fuel filt -
stick me on the list zoe i'll be there, might be a bit warmer this time haha

i'm not a fan either, every corsa/saxo/fiesta/clio round this end has shit hanging off the back bumper, not a fan.
-
just realised his number is on the print out i'll get in touch with him at some point
-
i'll submit mine soon. i've since put a freshly stripped and rebuilt fpr back on it (turned out there was a lump of what looked like chalk blocking the return haha :S) and seems more than happy at 3 bar fuel pressure. want to get it back on rollers asap for a true power run! how much roughly you reckon ricky would charge if i wanted to go back and get the fpr checked and put her back on the rollers matt?
-
if i'm not working then i'll definitely be there

where are you planning on buying them from out of interest? i'm after a purple *set

Thanks guys got a few bits on the way/ waiting to go on. And got her boosting at 0.8 again, seems to be pulling well but there is a slight flat spot before it comes on boost. Going on rollers next Saturday so we will see what the graph looks like and go from there -
I know I already have something on the way but damn you for being so far away, keep looking at the list and wanting more and more stuff!

Josheyboy's GT 14/07/12 Farewell :(

mine are literally exactly the same mate, drivers rear. every little bump in the road and it chuffs it's tits off drove it to norwich and back with an sr20 in the boot yesterday (norwhich is roughly about a 300 mile round trip for me haha) but yeah panhard rod will deffo sort it out, i've got my eye out for one but might just buy a new one tbh. even if it's on coilovers it will still scrub without an uprated panhard rod, trust lol. (obviously depending on how low you sit it, but still) -

hey! (sorry still don't know your actual name?! lol) cars coming along slowly but surely, got it back at a nice 0.8 bar and it really shifts well, love driving it again. rapidly started to hate it over the last few weeks as it seemed every little thing i tried to do just failed and it was only running 0.4 bar which was abysmal lol. rolling road day next saturday so i'll put a pick of the graph up, whatever the result is i still love driving it and as a heavily relied upon daily it does me proud! lol need to get a build thread up for yours, will be mint when it's back on the road, looking
