try pirtek or some where like demon tweeks motorbike bits. failing that you can always give goodridge an email and see if they do them. good luck with it though.

did i spy a bleed valve? but besides that yes the new wheels look 10x better and the car looks like a good base to work on.

agreed with taggy. sounds like a bit of a misfire dude.

im guessin a good mechanic wasnt availiable lol. saying that, thats one of the quickest engine removals ive seen!

cheers for the comments guys. should hopefully have a update at weekend. now have exhaust, grille indicators and headlights (thanks to pick1) and should hopefully have the manifold back from being braced.

lol its not my fault (ok it is) that the wastegate was on wrong lol. it will be sorted with the new spring babe.

the top domed nut is just a finisher to make it look pretty instead of having the screw head. as long as the lower nut is still tight you shouldn't have any problems.

its got very similar looks to the nissan march over there.

ken block eat your heart out lol

hi there. the inlet size on a standard ct9 is 45mm iirc?

why are you using copper nuts? and yea m10x1.25

you have a pm buddy

nice looking gt bud. have you given it a compression test yet? white smoke usually indicates water in the exhaust or possibly oil if it has a blue tinge to it. good man going td04! ive gone td04 and i dont even have my front end! hope you may be attending a couple of shows too. i love that cage in the back!

at idle it should be 14.7 also known as lambda 1. when on boost it must run rich. somewhere around the 11-10 afr mark. any less than that (i.e 13-14.7) when your toe is planted and you may possibly pink (pre ignition before the spark has ignited the fuel also known as det)

lol you would be supprised socks. whe the big end shells went in the almera there was literally chunks of metal stuck to the magnet. so a good idea in my eyes. some high flow oil filters have a magnet inside them to catch the metal before it goes around your engine.

that is a awesome pic.

cheers zoe. yea its getting there just need to sort out a few things but hopefully should have a tune out of her by next month

ive driven charls gt advance and yes it spools up quickly on a ct9. but after driving adams td04, i want one. so i have got one myself and not even had the engine running yet

hey guys and girls, more updates on the shedlet. well i bought a civic rad from toyosports and im in the process of fitting/making brackets to fit it to the shedlet. and i also bought myself a td04 manifold and down pipe. (cheers ryan ) so of corse i just had to buy a td04 to go with the manifold and down pipe ;) i started by stripping the td04L to turn the turbine and impeller sides around so they suited the starlet. (sorry about the tools all over but the vitara is the mobile workshop ) then i assembled the turbo to suit then i couldnt resist but fit the manifold and downpipe to the turbo to check for correct orientation so after i had fitted the manifold i just had to fit it to the engine! so now i knew everything fitted properly i decided to remove it all so i could get the manifold braced and i could make my coolant lines up on the turbo. heres what i came up with for the coolant lines. In the second pic you can see what i work on. cant see alot but that sandy coloured stuff is whats out in afganistan at the moment. hopefully get the pipes brazed up tomorrow and then the turbo is almost ready to be bolted up to the head.

cheers socks ;)

car is looking good bud. im wondering what is the td05 like to drive with? is it really laggy with the engine only being a 1.3? u off to car shows this year? jap show, jae etc?

sorry to bump this but how much are the td04 oil feed pipes on their own? ive made my own coolant pipes out of cunifer pipe. see my build soon.

lol i should bring the vitara for a laugh. but really think it may blow up lol

erm did some one call for a big dose of RAPE!

cheers starbuck lol
