oh right ill have to do a bit of research when im home see if they are straight swap lookin to save as much as i can obviously with still being safe with good brakes aint botherd about having best of best brakes and them looking good solongs they are suffiecent for what sort of power i have
-
was just talking to a mate and he said about getting standard brakes of a bigger car could save me some cash and so the same thing? What brakes could i use off another car maybe a gt4 or mr2?
-
yes i realised they are rather expensive haha !! think ill be getting some 1144 pads or some yellow pads and then have to do some saving ! i got decent tyres all around got toyo proxes
-
never knew you could get uprated calipers to be honest could you give me a link to some mate?
-
you recon the grooved ones i have allready are better then the brembo ones of ebay when you say caliper do you just literally mean caliper what hold brake pads?
-
as i cant really afford to be spending 450 on set of brakes right now i want to get some brakes for now and then get some decent brakes im either thinking keeping my front disks which is these but with some yellow pads
or going for this
-
what sort of power output can a td04l turbo put out ? i thought around 270ish?
-
ok then mate ive got grooved disks on the front so you recon totally get rid of them , or get new pads and keep front disks ?
-
so get standard rear disks and pads and have wms brakes at front? had a look at some but cant seem to find any to buy ? any one give me a link ?
-
haha i only got the car few weeks back you recon get better front pads and disks at front or are these disks ok?
-
-
ive got different brakes on front grooved disks not too sure on what pads
-
so standard disks and pads on the back ? as of that then what front brakes and pads should i be looking at getting ?
-
need to get some rear disks and pads i have an ep82 running 270bhp , currently have these at the front
but unsure what brake pads back brakes are wearing unevenly so time to get some new ones i think any views on best ones to get?
-
nah its not smoking or anything turbo seems fine
maybe i will have to weld it up then see what its like duno whether i can control when it boosts by the ebc , if that doesnt help ill check my i,c pipes -
just took a few pics of the boost controller and the settings i have all the main menu settings and then boost settings does any one know which one to go on to make it boost earlyer in the revs

last photo is all the boost settings

im running external wastegate yes mate and im not too sure whether the internal wastegate is welded shut as i havent had the turbo housing apart but the actuator bolt which i have a pic of at the top of the page is welded shut but still has some play isn't it! im controlling boost through a blitz electronic boost controller had a look through the "boost" settings on the actual ebc but i wasnt confident in changing anything as there was a few things i dont know what they do .
-
maybe i will have a fiddle with that before i drill or weld or start taking things off !
-
right i put a thread on another starlet forum but thought would post on here too im not hitting full boost until around 5500-6000 revs i have a forged ep82 running 1.2 bar and 268.1 bhp , got told when i bought it that for it too boost earlyer need to drill out where the old actuator was and put a bolt in it too close it properly? it has allready been welded but has a slight bit of play isn't it ! just wondering what you think i should do drill it out and put a bolt through ? or open up the turbo housing and weld the circular valve what the actuator controls shut ? i have no actuator by the way i now have blitz ebc
here is the current weld on the old actuator bracket
