  1. hahahahah that made me laugh lol.... not to mention you little bug running around just totally messed with my mental lolol ... im here saying why wont this bug get of my screen lol...
  2. and did you have to machine the head at all to get the clearance of the pistons.. and what head gasket did you use?
  3. hey adam im in a bit of a fuss right now was about to buy the 5e engine this morning and firstly was stuck trying to figure out if to buy the 5efe or the 5efhe.... then we realised that the scat rods i just ordered for the 4e wont work in it so had to cancel that thought all together as i can be bothered with buying another engine and having to purchase new forged rods after just purchasing the scat ones... then more troubles after deciding out of the 5e head and block and saying screw it forged 4e we realised the the wiseco pistons are domed -10 and because of that the compression ratio is going to change... can you let me know how your getting around this as i see u are using wiseco pistons as well
  4. help needed all you guys who have gone forged engine way... the wiseco pistons i got are are not flat and have -10 domes.... we are a little bit worried now that the compression in the cylinder will lower too much and the car become a lag monster with the td04 turbo on it ... any one whose done this can u give me a heads of how you got around this problem
  5. can i ask a question im about to do this exact engine build down here the mechanic is worried that with the dished pistons the compression will lower too much and the car become a lag monster.... can you confirm my fears?
  6. i told u guys that if i lived in the uk and spent the kind of money im spending id have the monsterest of monsters
  7. yea not going individual coils that is more work there again and this project is quickly getting way out of hand ... and i mean way out of hand and i haven't even painted the dam thing yet....for christ sake i just payed 3000 tt dollars on an entire 5e head an block and all i real want is the bottom end Adam are u running a stand alone ecu cuz if i run into any problems ill be messaging you for help.... we've been in touch with Dave Walker from emerald and he says it will definitely work doing what we want it to do .... but he himself has not worked on one of these engines so it will be a learning experience for him as well ... well from 10 million miles away that is
  8. im getting the emerald ordered in this weekend i believe .... looking to run 3 maps on it ... track day map every day map and a launch control map... what we did in the bora with the emerald is have the high beam placed some where else as a switch so that we can use the high beam leaver as the launch control leaver... ill sit on the line pull on the high beam ... and wapwapwapwapwap boom out the hole 20 psi boost
  9. wouldnt i only need a crank position sensor and trigger wheel if im say to fuck with the distributor and putting individual coil packs
  10. was told id have to change the map sensor for sure to use the emerald... but what other sensors would need to go?
  11. That isn't very comforting news to be honnest.... Hmmm so then what stand alones have people been using ... As I doubt I want to start replacing every sensor known to mankind lol
  12. the aem units are wayyyy to expensive in trinidad... and as i said i can gett the emerald for about 450 with shipping instead of 600 before
  13. mapping done by my mechanical/mapping god aka my mechanic/buddy (for free) .... and hes the dealer for emerald in the cairbbean so im paying cost for the unit.... just wanted to know if anyone has done it before do you think you can get me a link to that read up?
  14. i was thinking about going with an emerald has any one else actually done it ... my tech guy swears by them... come on guys talk to me

  18. This is just me being slightly bored at work and deciding that a little encouragement can go a long way... As you guys may have read before I am the UKSO lost cousin that has been punished with hot sun and perfect weather all year round in the Caribbean island of Trinidad. Home of the wonderful steelpan, the worlds greatest Carnival, glorious beaches and BEAUTIFUL women. Oh and did i fail to mention that we have some of the worlds most astonishing array of cars as well...however this does come with a bit of a downside being on a small island so far away from life makes tuning even a bicycle a hard thing as after market parts are not usually as simple to purchase as running down to your local shop or even jumping on ebay. I mean this is not to say that certain cars are not simpler than others. I mean if i wanted a full rb25 engine and transmission they are a pound and a crown down here every tom dick and harry has one.. and in about anything as well.. laurels toyota crowns toyota chasers skylines ... man even pannel vans.. and if you thought that was a common thing people sr20 the shit out of EVERYTHING but what about guys like me who grew up in Nottinghill gate that are custom to half a car with no trunk and a cramped back seat what about us guys whose engine bay struggles to hold anything more than na 20 valve .... ohh little starlet how i love the.... second car ive ever bought and sadly the one that ive loved to hate... if it wasnt for this website all the little itty bitty shits that i needed would never be sourced... the no brainer shit that u simply can not find down here having said that the starlet game down here has been a rough one as there is barely anyone to go to for info and worst yet parts but then one day the ukso ... well uksc at the time... popped up into my life and ill admit to you with out u guys this car would have been gone years ago.... the amount of help you guys have given me over the years is unreal and to try even start listing you all would take forever so for the sake of not forgetting anyone i just give an all out THANK YOU to the administration team i must give a special shout out to you guys as well as you have heard the pleas of the general public on the club site and have made using it a lot easier and having watched the sites evolve from the days of tgtt.com to this i must say holly shit balls the websites a dream.. you guys have really out done ya self and made my life and im sure the life of all our users as sweet as it can get.. and i know you guys are not finished, you are always thinking of ways to improve and that shit rocks me socks off despite the pure and outright amazingness off living down here the most frustrating part is looking at all the unique and simply gorgeous creations you the members of this family have managed to build... be that hp figues, gts that are pure sex in the looks department, engine bays you can eat out of, or track hor eps that would destroy almost everything else... you lot have some of the nicest eps out there and it makes me so jealous knowing that my car as sweet as it is has the potential to be something so great... ahh if only i still lived in England.... however i must say that despite it making me depressed the works of our local steven spielburg and his team aka brokenmedia definitely keeps me in the loop i love every second of every video as it makes me feel like im at all these events that you all are going to ....for fucks sake i just watched the 2012 JAE special extras and am straight up furious i didnt book my vacation earlier.. any how to broken media keep the work up ... special thanks to all the members who have helped me and despite not usually doing so went through the troubles of shipping parts to the Caribbean for me... special thanks to Matt from tuning developments for answering all me dum questions.... lol k just re read that and its so mushy and homo almost dont wana press send but say what just wana send a piece of appreciation as im sure there are many of us that are part of the site and haven't actually met the team that are thankful as well any who peoples rasslenny is out a here aka Alejandro PEACE
  19. its been a while since ive posted as the parts just took for ever to reach to trinidad but they cleared customs yesterday and im gona pick them up at the post office tomorrow... so project forged td04 continues this weekend it does however with a little twist i managed get holf a 5EFE head and block while waiting for the parts at the bargainest of bargain prices so i guess ill be frankensteining this bad boy and using the bottom half of the 5e.... I've already sauced the head gasket and the ARP head bolts i do however have a question so all you 5e guys out there help help help as for gains i was told the 5e intake is the better intake to be using can any one fill me in on what they think would be the smarter of the 2 moves original powder coated yummyness or the 5e (pending gains)
  20. ohh how i wish i lived in the uk
  21. have peeple done this or would you say the 4e intake is a better intake to use?
  22. can the 5E intake manifold be used? I have done everything you have said so far and am about to install the intake
  23. this thing is seriously still around
  24. i cant bash them ... minus the extreeeeemly queer narrative... this video was the best ive seen at making a real initial d type video... the editing is pretty fucking good if you ask me and stuck to the theme for sure.... had the guy been driving a toyota in the back and there been japanese naration with corny english subtitles instead im sure u guys would be off your rockers with this video but ill admit the bandana bull shit... and his loafers ... can only get one comment from me
