Russleh Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 hmm thats a weird one. ya not send anythin a while ago ? as it says since these pictures were sent in it has changed engine to the 5efte. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bean Posted May 4, 2011 Author Share Posted May 4, 2011 I think about a year ago i sent them an email asking if they would be interested in putting it in once it was finished, as i was only planning on running the forged 4e at first so i thought the car was only needing mapped, a few bits sprayed, wheels and then it would be about sorted back then. Not much point putting it in till its finished. I will have to go get the mag after work 2nite. Thanks for lettin me know guys.I've got just over a hundred miles on it now and its running great, the turbo spools so easy! Gunna drop the oil again and start clocking the miles up Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mini valver Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 things aint looking good for mini valver mate. fucking night mare i have had today. feel like burning it out. was on my way home from petes after just setting the tps and it blows all 4 bolts and strips the threads between the throttle body and the inlet. peice of shit it is.yes beans car has come on a long way like looks a shed but aint gona go like one. once set up and that secret big turbo is bought watch out lads Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bean Posted May 4, 2011 Author Share Posted May 4, 2011 looks like a shed does it! haha its just the bumpers really.Thats shit that mate, dunno how the threads have stripped though maybe been over tightened, only need nipped up on alloy stuff. if you want give me the inlet and i can get mark at work to tap it out and re thread it for ya, wont be a prob for him. need it sorted for sat! peter said your going to jdm tomorrow?? Secret big turbo ehh, its not even ran in and your wanting a bigger turbo on it already! gunna keep the vf35 dude. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mini valver Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 no they were not over tightened mate i just think with the stupid thing been on and off so many times. yes going jdm tomorrow he said he is going to put some helicals or something in them as it can not be retapped at a mate bolt size it would have to go bigger. and he said he will sort the tps out. sick to death of it paul eh. wait and see mate that secret turbo we no about will be on it in no time. what you on tomorrow can not even text you left my phone at spyat. lol it wont tick over any lower than 3.5k lol if people look all shout wat the fuck you looking at lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bean Posted May 4, 2011 Author Share Posted May 4, 2011 yeah hes got one of those helicoil insert things i seen it last time i was there. i hope he can sort it out finally and there no more messing about for ya. you have been lucky to fit it in at short notice because i bet hes really busy this week with kirkbride been on this weekend! i would get through nice and early for him. you better get your bill paid too lol. im on back shifts until the weekend mate, if i get chance (if i get up at a decent time) im gunna change the oil and filter tomorrow morning so its ready for the next running in. im gunna drop that inlet off with mark soon so he can port and polish it all inside, he can sort me a throttle body out too if i want. he said he can even bore them out and make new brass butterflys if i want. i might go ratch through the scrap yard with a tape measure and see what i can find.

mini valver Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 good idea land rover v8 may have a decent size one. dont buy one off flea bay like if there any thing like mine it will be poop. he was sound really he just said take it thro. not going early last time i went early he said go early he never turned up until 11 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bean Posted May 4, 2011 Author Share Posted May 4, 2011 haha, nice weather and that though im sure he will be through early on. yeah gunna have a ratch about see what looks good. gunna try and find something that doesnt need loads of messing about with hopefully, no point making things difficult.
