Idrees Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 Nice updates ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mart Posted September 26, 2007 Author Share Posted September 26, 2007 Right a small little update.Fitted a Supra Fuel Pump last week which was dead handy as the best mate just had one lying around in his garage after doing a turbo conversion. Also I finally got the screen fixed in the AVCR, she's mounted nicely on the dash. Also got time to set up two categorys on it, Cat A (Standard Driving) Cat B (Race Setting). Boost was now preset through each of the gears so she really takes on now on 3rd and 4th aswell. Well Sweet. ;)New RRFPR next along with some good decent brakes and a bigger oil pump.Pics to follow in the next few days.Cheers.Mart... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mart Posted September 27, 2007 Author Share Posted September 27, 2007 Its using the ECU from a GT Turbo. ;)The buddie that did the conversion is a genius on electronics. I'll find out exacty what he did if you like scutch? Even on the RS he has two ECU's running. One Cosworth and the Orig RS one. Don't know how he has the patients for it tbh...

Guest Enzo Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 you would notice more power if you upgraded to an fte inlet manifold as the runners on the na manifold are too short and thin restricting the engine Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mart Posted October 12, 2007 Author Share Posted October 12, 2007 Im deffo going to take note of that Enzo, Cheers for the advice man. Going to call down to the mech in the next few days for another chat.Should be very easy to scope one too from the scrappies.Going to throw up a list too of all my mods when I can...I don't even want to think on how much Im after spending on my car in the last few years...

SiCaln Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 and the pic of your door pods Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mart Posted October 12, 2007 Author Share Posted October 12, 2007 Here's an old pic bro... But I'll deffo take some more for you when I get home...Basically the carpet can be changed to any color you like, I stayed with black for the mean time. My door was firstly dynomated behind. The crossovers are hidden in behind the old speakers position and look something like this:Then the tweet was placed in the cover to the side of the door pod. Nice and subtle.But as I said I'll take a few more later to give you a better idea of it further away... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SiCaln Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 nice work there man must say very pro - 6.5" speakers? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SiCaln Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 im having a nightmare trying to find a pair of 13cm Nakamichi sp50 mid range speakers to complete my audio set up Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mart Posted October 18, 2007 Author Share Posted October 18, 2007 Not an update really but, Decided to give the engine bay and Rocker a good old clean so will get some pics up of that later on for yee.My upgraded front brake kit is on its way finally from Japan but all will be revealed soon. Called down to a tyre centre a few weeks ago, I ordered in some Rotas from him so I went down to see what they were like on.To be honest the color did nothing for my car at all. ;) so I didn't bother getting them in the end. I think more of a silver maybe would of suited better but I took a quick pic on my phone for yee to see for yerselves:That yellow will be gone too when the rear axle is on but regarding the Rotas, the color of the rim just didn't seem to suit. Back to looking for more color choices I think... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mart Posted November 6, 2007 Author Share Posted November 6, 2007 Small little update.Had this fitted a few months ago but here's a few pics anyway for yee.The unit mounted on the dash.Gave my rocker cover a old cleaning aswell the other day. Was destroyed with oil from the breather before I put on the oil catch can. I'll take it off now one of these days a give it a spray but this will do nicely for the mean time... I'll keep yee updated soon...Mart... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
