Markoos Posted February 17, 2009 Author Share Posted February 17, 2009 welll in a few months ill have my fpr fitted and fcd and hdi ebc, then ill be running 1bar! woop!!!!! then just get cosmetic things and more performance mods incase i want to go hybrid one day haha Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Glanza_cl Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 sounds good i have the HDI ebc and it's a lovely bit of kit, i would get a SAFC or neo fuel computer just to get a safer map, you will produce more power from a more refined map aswellthere's not a lot of adjustability with a rrfpr but will do the job just fine.Black fast V's FTW!! lolkeep up the good work your car looks super tidy Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bourkey Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Put it at the top . No use going fast if you keep sucking water into the engine . You will be relatively envious if this weekend goes well . If it goes shit you will probably laugh...i would .Bourkey Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Markoos Posted February 17, 2009 Author Share Posted February 17, 2009 yeah man, deffinately!! ive been toying with the idea of going hybrid but put that thought to bed matey due to everything that wud have to be changed to make it safe. yeah will be a bit envious for a while but few months and ill be running 1 bar atleast but going to get to 1 bar then just look at the looks of the car Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bourkey Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 Mate you already have everything to run a hybrid except the turbo itself obviously. All you need to do is put the hybrid on, get it set up then bosch. If i hadn't of moved out i'd be getting one. Sort the job out!Bourkey Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sort the job out!BourkeyI know but few things that i want first, to run a hybrid id need a fcd and fpr obviously for safetly running over 1 bar which i dont have yet. im gonna run my standard ct9 until it basically gives up then slap a nice sexual hybrid on there By that time ill have a nice few mods and maybe save up to get new gasket and internals ill see a nice increase by going 1 bar anyway then ill go hybrid Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bourkey Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 Sounds like a plan. At least you will be runing 1 bar. If you can be bothered stripping off all your turbo and mani one weekend you may be able to get the work done that i am having. I'll reveall all after it is done though .Bourkey Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Markoos Posted February 18, 2009 Author Share Posted February 18, 2009 Well ill be round on saturday anyway matey so can see what the hell you're raving on about then lol its gonna feel so good when you're running 1 bar man, problem is when im running 1 bar ill want more lol. Let me know what time saturday. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bourkey Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 I'll be up early probably. Im at my dads work on friday if i get it all off before midday. Im starting Thursday night so i should have it all off then. My dad reckons it's going to be a good kick at what im running at now so when im a 1 bar it should be lovely . If it all goes well you will want it trust me. It's a few days of messing about though. Plus i needed to get new gaskets as im taking it apart. I've ordered them from JLS as he gets a 10% discount at Toyota .Bourkey Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Markoos Posted March 1, 2009 Author Share Posted March 1, 2009 Hi guys and gals just a bit of an update! Well ive had a few days off work so i randomly thought i would have a go at painting my wheels white :harhar: please be honest as its the first time ive done it and i know they arent perfect so your comments are welcome! One massive mistake i made was to not cover the inside of the wheels properly so there are some paint marks on the inside but hey, im learnin haha Sitting on steelies hahaOnce the Nitromore has been applied (Deadly stuff)All primedStorage space for the tyres (parents not impressed haha!)Painted, Laquered and ready to go onFinally back on the car! More pictures are in the shoot section, Please all your comments welcome! be nice lol!!!!Markoos Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Idrees Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 They look nice dude, did you get a decent surface after using that Nitromors though? I find that stuff terrible to use, sand paper to shot blasting all the way! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bourkey Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Nitromoors...seriously. You bulb . That stuff is just too hardcore for wheels i reckon. You could have just rubbed the original paint down and done it over the top if you wanted. What kind of prmer did you use on them? Also why didn't you do the inside of the wheel? Does look smart though i must say :harhar:. White on black usually does look good. I was half liking them and half not last night but looking at them again i do like them.Bourkey Quote Link to post Share on other sites
