Snap On do decent seat covers.

Blue tac and chewing gum

New cheapo one will do the trick. And a new oem one is just rape from Toyota. Sure i have seen uprated slave cylinder in the Hyper Revs book, wonder if there are any still about..

Yeah the belt not having the correct tension on the alternator can cause that issue^^ New belt, correct tension, and see how ya get on

X2 have you got the alloy underside mount too? The two are very different.

Not very far dude, the belt runs the water pump aswell, with that not spinning the coolant temps will go way high and you could warp the head etc. Id say like drive a mile if you need to but cant you not just tow it?

It would be a tough choice between the 28 and the 35. Just depends what you want from the car? And cant complain getting it for free!

Phil you dropped this.... Soreeeey

Like the turbo choice! VF28 are a bit on the laggy side even being BB but they pull like fuck around 4.5k (depending on setup)

Shame man! All the best with the sales and your new business venture!

4EFE is almost as good as a B18C.... Haha Reckon it'll be fine man We were maybe asking too much of it, the temps were sky high, plus on track etc. Some 4EFEs do tend to use oil though, so just keep an eye on it

Nice and tidy! Plus, i suspect its gonna get used properly and not just a show queen yeah

Only experience ive had with Halfords oil was their trackday oil, it was too thin and it was the reason my pals civic wasnt enganging vtec, that was mid summer at knockhill though. It will be fine for a N/a starlet

Scoop looks 10times better now man!

Alibaba spwecials.

You can get replacement 4EFE engines for buttons dude.

Did people used to run these with aftermarket ECUs?

Was it SteveGT who was/is admin or something on here with many optional extras who had one? Maybe worth a shout. Fuck paying that price ^^^

Its a fuckin eyesore if anything lol.

Halfords trade card is the way forward Its like 50% on some stuff

I remember seeing the powerband graph and it was pretty dead low down lol. Was the spec of the turbo ever released?

This could be converted for buttons, most of the parts you need you could get from a EP91 N/a (pedal, shifter, cables etc) Youd just need a good C52/6 box and a turbo clutch / flywheel combo. Anyway, GLWS

Was Spuddys drag GT that could rev like fuck on a 5E if you wanna search for it.

All depends on personal preference, you can get 4E engines to 400+ bhp... A 5E will be less laggy. It doesnt cost 'that' much more to build a 5E over a 4E.. 5E block and crank used to go for about 150quid area. People say a 5E wont rev as high as a 4E but pretty sure you can still go to 8.5K+ RPM area i think has been done.. Personally id get a Gen1 5EFHE (fuckin solid rods) out a Sera and just run that turbo'd for a while at low / medium boost on a good ECU and map, it has a higher compression ratio and better cams. Save yourself the forging costs for a while, then forge it at a later date when you have a massive turbo to strap to it
