  1. Yeah Adam knows because he had a 20,000rpm starlet...
  2. Awesome stuff man! Glad to see it fired up
  3. The general consensus on mayo in the oil cap on this form is that you have a head gasket failure, after speaking to a mechanic friend he said it was most likely just condensation causing the mayo in my oil cap. This is because the car had been sitting for over a year and also short drives where it wasn't getting up to temp. Topped up the coolant, oil on the dipstick looks perfect so no drama. Now just to find some time and nice weather to finish all the wee remaining issues then complete the map.
  4. Wouldn't be gutted mate, someone should be able to weld it back on for you at a reasonable cost. These are old cars now so things will fail from time to time
  5. you might have issue with the rpm signal, I could be wrong but the glanza outputs a high level signal from the igniter and the standard starlets don't
  6. I would get in touch with garrett, pretty sure they do v-band turbos
  7. Cheers man! Been really enjoying following your build Yeah I've got access to the cover so that was going to be my next move after the fuel filter. I think I've found something dodgy which won't be helping the issue, the normal chassis ground for the fuel pump isn't being used and has been replaced with a tek screw at the rear lights! I'll be fixing that and using the proper ground. Got bigger problems to deal with first... My first thought was I must have mixed up throttle body hoses but checked those and they are correct. Then I remembered when i changed th
  8. http://dub-se7en.toyotagtturbo.com/useful_info/OTHER_PDFS/klokkenset%20glanza.pdf Scroll down to see the glanza pinout
  9. Meant to say the voltage (at least in the ECU logs) remains a constant 14.3v while this is happening. Cheer though man, I'll give that a go if changing the fuel filter isn't fixing the issue.
  10. Thanks dude! Not really had any time to work on this recently, just taking it a drive twice a week and running data logging to look over when I get back to make some minor changes to the curise map. When doing this i noticed something really weird going on with the fuel pressure. When the boost pressure increases the fuel pressure starts to decrease. My initial thoughts are clogged filter, got a new one waiting to be fitted, or the Tuning Developments fuel pump is garbage. Both could be true so will change the fuel filter first and see how i get on
  11. If its hitting 0.8bar, dropping and then going back to 0.8bar i wouldn't touch the actuator. It sounds like an issue with what the gain is set to. Below is the guide, theres troubleshooting at the end. http://greddy.com/upload/file/PRofec_S.pdf
  12. Once it hits your target boost pressure (0.8bar) it should hold it there. What kind of boost controller are you using?
  13. Does your boost controller not display your current boost? If not I would get a boost gauge. With TD04 you should be seeing 0.8bar by 4000rpm. If i was you i would take the car to a dyno and do a power run just to double check the fueling with a wideband and get them to hook up a knock sensor as well. That way you'll know how safe your car is running and also if there are any problems with power etc
  14. Are you using a GT/Glanza ECU with the 5e? If so I'd imagine the volumetric efficiency would be quite different from a 4e engine so wouldn't be sure that would be a good idea to run that engine with the standard ecu at all. Someone else can correct me if i'm wrong on that. With regards to standard fpr and injectors, I ran a TD04 on these at 0.6 bar on 4e and standard ECU for over a year with no issues. I ran a wideband so had was able to keep an eye on AFR at least.
  15. Another thing to note is being unable to edit posts in build thread. Was going to replace all of the photobucket image links
  16. Ah fair play man, I just assumed you could have adjusted these down to nothing. Is the car pretty much standard? Let us know how you get on
  17. Sounds like you have a leak mate, make sure all of the connections are good as any small leaks will allow the boost to rise
  18. Definitely man! Its such a weird feeling driving it again. Still got a lot of wee jobs to do Fix the indicators/horn replace fuel filter (no idea how old the current one is) get the tacho working ICV seems to be doing nothing so see if that can be cleaned out/repaired or maybe just remove completely Finish tuning! sort out the issue with the lambda sensor losing power when the heaters get turned on (I'm using the ABS relay and fuse so that'll be playing a part) Reseal the fuel pump cover refit back seats re wire the reverse light switc
  19. That's awesome man! Your son looks so happy, love the fact he has ear defenders on haha Interesting speed sensor, where did you get it from? I didn't think the output on the clocks would have been that bad
  20. So managed to put in loads of hours over the last couple of weeks and got the car back on the road. Below is the engine bay all back together Got my mate out his bed at 6:30am on Saturday to help me get this thing mapped on the way for its MOT. Really difficult to road tune with the amount of cars we had on the road but we managed to get most of the cursing load sites up to 3500 rpm. Didn't try mapping into positive boost as I haven't had time to install my Link Knockblock. Think I'll book a couple of hours at a local dyno and finish the tune there. Getting its MOT The
  21. Alright mate, put your keyboard down. Yes it moved when sitting in traffic or idling for a long time, if I didn't drive in rush hour it may have never moved. It could be the temp sensor but its not going to do any harm replacing the thermostat as its a cheap part and might fix the issue like it did for me
  22. When I first picked up my starlet the temp gauge would only rise when sitting idling for a while, when I drove the car it would drop back down to 0. Replaced the thermostat and that fixed the problem for me so could be thermostat related.
  23. Is your temp gauge not rising? if so its a common problem, thermostat needs replaced
  24. Nah not yet man but think it might be an issue with my wiring, I hooked the ECU tacho output to the IG- on the clocks but its not working. I went a bit mad chopping loads out of the loom so its possible I cut out a power wire required for the tacho. Could also be I disabled the output on the ECU, I'll be looking to fix this next time I'm working on the car Cheers man still loads of wee jobs left to do but been getting much more time to work on the car recently
  25. With the ignition on and using a multi meter, one wire should have a constant 12v and the other wire should have nothing with the engine not running which will be the negative you are after. When the engine is running this connection will be grounded by the igniter to create spark.
