Welcome along mate. Be keen to see more of that Cynos in the future!

I thought Smobey was running a hybrid? :/ Could be wrong though!

According to the wiring diagram, that wire is +B1; Switched battery power (12v) and the one below it in the same plug, does the same thing. I guess because they do the same thing you only need one of them, but I'm not sure why there is 2 at all if that's the case... :/

Sounds good! You can bet whatever the power it makes, it's going to be awesome fun to drive though ;)

Really looking forward to seeing what kind of power this makes when it's up and running, love a good n/a build me ;)

We went to Qawra last year and I loved it

OP mentioned it was 80 from Toyota...

Cheers buddy It could do with some cosmetic work, as there's some paint run, small scuffs etc, but I have most of the spare panels etc needed. He doesn't look too shabby once he's had a quick scrub up anyway ;) I'm kinda hoarding parts, then I'll take a week off at some point and just have a fitting binge haha

Well it's been a fair while since anything went down in here! Moved into our first house at the end of December last year and since it was a new build, there was quite a bit of time and money being needed to put in ie. there was no flooring, no decorating, garden was just a muddy mess etc etc, so car hasn't been in the front of my mind for a while. However, I'm hoping now things are pretty much sorted on the house front, more interesting things can now be the focus! Took a little trip at the weekend to grab a few bits from steed (big thanks to this guy by the way). Now sitting in my shed I have a TD04L, manifold, downpipe, 3S GE 370cc injectors, 5EFHE rods and 4EFTE pistons, along with 4E ECU etc. Still could do with a couple months to clear some debts, but once they're through I can hopefully grab the last couple bits and try to get it up and running. Still need a FMIC, civic radiator, relocated air filter, custom exhaust, TD04 oil and water lines and a load of bearings and gaskets to rebuild my spare 5E with. Will probably just try to get it running on low boost with 5E gearbox to start with, then gradually spec things up from there. Cheeky shot of it looking clean before JapFest: Couple pictures of the new bits: You can see how beast the FHE rods are compared to the FTE ones in the last pic! Other parts that I have somewhere which are yet to go on: EP82 front strut brace Spax 40mm springs Toyota OE front foglights Spare rocker cover (might just flog this and get a 4EFTE now) RW Developments oil cap Toyota 3 spoke leather steering wheel Also have spare fuel rail and intake manifold, which I'll likely polish up and fit with the new turbo etc. A small step in the right direction for now, hopefully I'll have more interesting updates soon!

Sounds good matey, I look forward to seeing the end result! ;)

I thought that adding spacers decreased the et? Therefore if you added a 10mm spacer to et0 you'd end up with an et-10 wheel? Poke city!

Went over Southampton way this morning to collect a bunch of parts off Si. Was a top bloke, very friendly and everything was there as described. Highly recommended and would definitely buy off again, cheers mate!

Welcome along mate, your NA looks really tidy, I'm liking it

I love those wheels, should look ace! Car's looking really tidy

Someone on here mentioned McGill Motorsport the other day, might be worth a look?

It does say the bodywork is a little scruffy? Doesn't mention what ECU either, although if it's forged surely it's been properly mapped too?? It's at less than 0.8 bar, why go forged for that little boost?

Haha glad it's not just me then I know I don't understand all the hate, it's only meant to be a laff!

Is it bad that I think the fanblades actually look quite good? Should I stand in the corner lol? :/

I think DVLA can provide current registered owners details, but they'll only give them out if you have a 'valid reason' to need them i.e. someone driving away from an accident etc. They also charge a small fee I think. Not sure if they do this for prior owners as well as current ones though, but can't hurt to ask

Couldn't be headgasket going could it? :/

Absolutely, it's a captive audience, especially in the more rural areas of the country. As with insurance, we have no real choice but to pay what they want Having said that, I'm pretty sure overall fuel sales are falling as people try to avoid using their car as much ie carshares, bicycles, public transport etc

No wakkas! It's always a difficult one to balance; nice sound without droning on a longer trip lol. Sounds like you nailed it with the extra silencer though

Pretty sure steed on here had ITBs running on his 6 speed Paseo for a while?

New exhaust looks perfect mate, size and angle sit laaaaverly in that rear! How does it sound?

There was a V5, but I lost it. There's an MOT until Feb '14, but I lost that too. There were also some keys, but.... Well yea I lost them too. Has this guy got fuckin' amnesia or something??
