Not yet, wana see what this one can do yet! There not expensive to build tbh. Id probably focus more on the head, so I can reallly rev it. Lets see what she will do first though. muahaha On 3/19/2021 at 2:41 PM, Sam44 said: Watching with huge anticipation. you and me both dude! ------------------- So, here is a bit more detail as its been a while. Walkaround of the cars current state: Its having a few odd bits finished off. New Throttle Cable (It snapped when I first got the car back and I then bodged it roadside and ran with it!) New Throttle Body Pulley (to lighten up the pedal) Heaters stuck on Full (it has factory climate control and this stopped working since standalone, so investigation!) Replace and configure PAS Pump Program RaceDash Mapping & Boost Control Its a fairly small list of fixes, but gonna take some time. Will update you all in due course, the aim is to do TOTB if I can in this. See what times she will lay. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pikey009 Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 Great to see it out and about again mate love the build, massively underrated engines. Is the plan to run boost by gear? Or just max attack? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You've got to go out in it to realise just how much traction it has got! Ill probably get a Draggy and see what happens see what times/speed she can do!

Big comment! ----------------------------------------------------- Little update. Wiring fault for the Climate Control is fixed. I now have fully functional Cold/Hot Air and Adjustable Fan Speed again! Yay! Throttle Cable is being made at the moment. Using a mixture of Racing Go-Kart and the original Corolla T-Sport one. The updates everyone wants to see I will try and be there for and get some good footage! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RobSR Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 Be good to get a dragy on it and see what the 100-200 time is! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
