morgey Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Why didnt you just wire in the ep91 stalks to fit the 82 wiring? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Budnbass Posted January 13, 2017 Author Share Posted January 13, 2017 Why didnt you just wire in the ep91 stalks to fit the 82 wiring?We was thinking about it, but some how one of the 91 stalks snapped removing the dash so we didn't have much choice, the 82 stalks sit nicely and do the job just have to remember they're the other way round!

morgey Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Ahh fair enough. Did make me wonder though haha Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Budnbass Posted January 13, 2017 Author Share Posted January 13, 2017 (edited) Big Progress today!All head lights and side repeaters wires up. Wipers and washer motor wired up. Fan wires up, horn up and working. Dash back in and secure with the wiring fixed to the support bar. Rear lights sorted, Clocks back in how ever they needed a little 'trim' to make them fit in hole....Head lights and side repeaters we're pretty simple to wire up, it was just a case of Turing the quad head light wiring back to normal h4's with dipped and main on one bulb.Wipers we've now got fast wipe and intermittent wipe, as the 82 loom only has 4 wires to the wiper motor and the 91 wiper motor has 6 wires but that's good enough.The fan we couldn't get to work of the coolant temp or fan sensor so we decided to run the fan of a switch to make it safer and more controllable. Rear lights were easy, as it's was an import we just had to wire up the rear fog on a switch with a tell tail so it will go through the MOT.We made a very basic dash pod to put the switchs and boost gauge. Battery's now in the boot aswell which fits nicely in the spare wheel we'll.Next on the list is;Sort out the brakes,Get it lowered,Set up the feuling,And get some decent tyres as we're currently running Winter Tyres!

Budnbass Posted January 16, 2017 Author Share Posted January 16, 2017 Been driving it around today and it's a fun little car! deffinatly has the potential to embarrass quite a few expensive cars! It's was quite obvious our main problem though was getting power down, the winter tyres just weren't cutting it! So these turned up this afternoon....Yoko Ad08's we went for 205/50's to try and maximise grip, and the rears wernt to bad goodyear's so we'll leave them for the time being. From reading reviews apparently these are the ones to go for so we'll get them fitted in the morning and see what they're like.Also ordered so more goodies but they'll be turning up later on this week. Just out of curiosity what fuel pressure should it be set up too? We've got it at 2.5 atm Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Patches Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 Awesome build man! Absolutely rattling through this project. Standard fuel pressure should be 2.3 bar Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Budnbass Posted January 18, 2017 Author Share Posted January 18, 2017 Awesome build man! Absolutely rattling through this project. Standard fuel pressure should be 2.3 barCheers mate, yeah we're getting through it quick, might have to think about getting more power out of this to give us something to do! Some more parts turned up today so we'll get them fitted and post some pics later on Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Budnbass Posted January 19, 2017 Author Share Posted January 19, 2017 For Reference decent tyres are the single most cost affective mod anyone can make on they're car, grip over power anyday! The difference these tyres have made is unreal, minimal wheel spin and you have the confidence is not going to send you in to the curb going round a corner. From day one we always said we wernt to bothered how the outside of the car looked, but we thought we'd tidy it up abit so we didn't like complete idiots driving it around! Racing strips came off and we managed to get all the paint off down the side, there's just some black paint on the drivers door covering the rust. Ideally we're looking for a new door and bonnet but they're not essential right now. As it was sitting like a monster truck we got some 40mm springs to drop it down to a nice hieght. Also got some new discs as the old ones were way past it! Oh and we thought we'd get the anti lift kit aswell apparently they make a big difference....I think we might modify the back box some how so it fits under the bumper so when your behind it you can't see anything and it just looks standard.

SRdan Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 Loving this, will keep an eye on the build Quote Link to post Share on other sites
maddox710 Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 loving the momentum of the build, I fit good tyres, rarb and alk all withing a few weeks of each other and they really transformed the way the car went Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Budnbass Posted January 21, 2017 Author Share Posted January 21, 2017 Cheers fellas, it's been a fun build and it's deffinatly a fun car! We've been toying with the idea of going to the next step for more power, as it's not a daily we can push it to its limits and see what we can get out of it! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Budnbass Posted January 23, 2017 Author Share Posted January 23, 2017 Got the anti lift kit fitted today, was a bit of a mission getting the old bushes off, glad it was up in the air as I wouldn't fancy doing them on the ground! Noticed the sump was leaking aswell so we got that off and gave that a coat of paint then sealing it up tomorrow then we'll see if it's any different with the anti lift kit.

Budnbass Posted January 28, 2017 Author Share Posted January 28, 2017 So now the cars been up and running problem free for a couple of weeks we've decided we need more power! We'll be going TD04 with external waste gate and emanate blue to control it. We'll be doing this over the next couple of weeks with the hope of it being up and running a for RWYB at Santa Pod on the 26th Feb. Last week we got the rattle cans out and decided to tidy up the car, it looks much better now!Where's the intercooler gone?! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SRdan Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 Top work buddy, good to see you're not going down the body kit route. Bet it surprises a few people. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Budnbass Posted January 29, 2017 Author Share Posted January 29, 2017 Top work buddy, good to see you're not going down the body kit route. Bet it surprises a few people.Cheers mate, I'm not keen on the Glanza Rep look, at the end of the day it was always meant to be a sleeper so the more NA it looks the better, hence the reason we sprayed the intercooler body colour. Found most of the parts we need for the next step so hopefully they'll be here with in the week. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MR-2 Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Nice project, always enjoying reading budget cars building. Intercooler is only negative thing, why not putting it behind bumper, there is enough room if taking that hood support bracket away... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Intercooler is only negative thing, why not putting it behind bumper, there is enough room if taking that hood support bracket away...Cheers mate, the idea was to have it behind the bumper but we started cutting then Before long we just thought fuck it well cut the hole lot out! we did take the support bar away but it meant the bonnet was flimsy and not very secure when driving so we put it back on. Ideally we're looking for a new osf door bonnet and front bumper so we could do it again but it'll do for the moment.Injectors and fuel pump turned up today, few more things on the way this week and then we'll fit them all together.

Budnbass Posted January 31, 2017 Author Share Posted January 31, 2017 (edited) These turned up today, fake HKS dump valve, Walbo fuel pump and had the injectors for a while off the top of my head think they're 370cc. Got the dump valve fitted. Will get the rest done this week. Got a TD04 set up on the way aswell 😉 Edited January 31, 2017 by Budnbass Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Budnbass Posted February 5, 2017 Author Share Posted February 5, 2017 TD04 and manifold is fitted, exhaust is modified, external waste gate fitted. Proper update coming soon! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SRdan Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 Jesus!! U don't hang about Got my eye on this build Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Budnbass Posted February 8, 2017 Author Share Posted February 8, 2017 BIG UPDATE!We're now running TD04 and all relavent goodies to make More power!TD04 and Toyosports manifold with down pipe,External wastegate and screamer pipe,370cc injectors,High flow fuel pump,And boost controller.So for the past couple of weeks we've made major progress on this. CT9 was good and fun but as this is a project and not a daily good wasn't good enough! We brought a TD04, toyosports mani and down pipe for £100, the turbo needed rebuilding but wasn't too much of a problem. We decided to go external waste gate so we'd have more control of what boost we was running rather than relying on an actuator. Whilst we had the exhaust manifold off we decided to paint the rocker cover and Intake manifold to tidy up the bay and make it all one colour with a black and blue scheme. We've modified the back box to give it more of a sleeper look as before it was sticking out from the bumper now it's tucked up under neith pointing down. It's pretty loud but sounds good! We had it running without the boost controller and its was crap worse than with a ct9, however after fitting the boost controller it was a completely different car! Currently it's running at 8psi and it's an animal, but it's over fuelling massively! Boost controllers sitting nicely where the clock used to be Finally we've brought emanage Blue and hopefully itll be fitted by Monday. Apprently it's mapped at 1bar on a TD04 so we will fit it and see what happens. But TD04 is the way forward! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SRdan Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 Awesome work buddy. Really impressed with how far it's come in a short space of timeYou'll be recieving a few pm'd in the next couple of weeks regarding wiring as all I can get hold of arm is ep82 looms 🙈🙈 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Them pics aren't quite the fully finished article. Exhaust is painted and heat treated and all the underside has been cleaned and painted black so it's looking fresh! We also removed the sump cleaned and painted that and sealed it propperly as it leaking badly and so far the engines still bone dry.Anytime mate, I've got 95% of the ep91 wiring diagrams and a fairly decent Ep82 wiring diagram. I'd be interested to try work out how to fit the 82 engine loom to a 91 interior loom as it would be a lot easier and you'd be able to keep the 91 interior completely standard and untouched.
