Dan507 Posted May 4, 2013 Author Share Posted May 4, 2013 This tried killing me and my mate on the way back from the spring performance action day. A car pulled out in front of me so i slammed the brakes on and the pedal hit the floor. Pretty sure my heart stopped for a moment then but luckily the car in front go on with it and i don't go into the back of it. It was a fun drive home with no brakes. It's all fixed now though. It turns out when i fitted the coilovers almost three years ago i bent the brake hose brakes, some how and its been slowly wearing away it them. So, new hoses at the front and my mother kindly ordered me some new pads from Idrees Can't wait for 'fest next week A photo with a wild GT. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Matt Heard Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 Not much aesthetically, you built it pretty spot on, wheels still need a refurb and i need to get it sitting right, lower and some camber.She has however had a new heart and been stripped out. I should really update my thread more often!She's in good hands though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Dan507 Posted December 15, 2015 Author Share Posted December 15, 2015 Righty, Grab a drink. It's story time. My girlfriend was in the market in February for a new car, she was keen on getting a Cilo 172, but i somehow managed to change her mind into getting a glanza, after finding a nice white one for sale, which appeared to looks fair tidy but was hanging on arrival, so we gave that one a miss and struggled to find a nice one in her budget i messaged Matt to see if would be willing to sell this, which he was, but he a started to break it for parts it was only missing, seats, turbo kit, and exhaust, so not much. She put a deposit down on the car, and it was collected two weeks later, the same time i got my black S14. Once we got the car, it was time to start collecting the parts, we set a budget of 1000, to get it back on the road, but we blew that to pieces, here is a small list of parts we got. Evo Recaros, JPerformance intercooler,JPerformance exhuastSpeedvision HybridTuning dev ignition overhaul kitTuning dev AFPRWEPR Manifold and decatToyo R1R'sand a load of over small bits like gaskets and stuffMost of the parts we collected before the car got even delivered except for the manifold and down pipe, at the time we where looking for one, a decent brand (buy cheap, buy twice) nothing was for sale, so we deiced to go new, and this slowed the build right down, i took around 2 months for it to be delivered and it was wrong, (studs where to short and the flange not flat) so that had to be sent away to be sorted which was another two weeks!we eventually got the car together, about 3 months after buying it so it was time for the first start! and she fired into life! but was smoking like made and not pulling right, was like driving a NA starlet, so loads of parts where checked and replaced to get this problem sorted after a few weeks of having the car on the ramps and changing parts left right and centre i has happy enough to put her back on the road again, the boost was right down but it still ran. Once i got the car running right, i started to look into the power of the car, Megan bought a Greedy boost controller and i installed it and set it up, the car was running a solid 0.8 bar but still felt really sluggish so we deiced to bite the bullet and get the car mapped at Tuning Developments, so i set about getting the car prepare for mapping.The car was leaking oil everywhere, had a coolant leak an need a new lambda and wheel bearing, so i done all that and we set up for TD in the following week, On the way up there the car was sitting at 100 degrees all the way there, with the heaters on fill blast to keep the engine cool, which wasn't fun for the 5 hour drive in the summer. we got there and they installed the E-manage and started to attempt the map the car, nothing happened for hours and Mike told us why, turns out the whole wiring for the conversion had been done wrong, thats why it had so many issues before hand, Nick and Mike tried for hours to try and fix the car but said that it needs a whole new loom. so it was home time for us. Mike also mentioned that it still had a NA rad on the car too, thats why it was over heating. So with the car back, and off the road again, i set about fixing it, changing all the fluids, seals, changing to a civic half radchanging the oil pump, cam belt and giving the whole engine bay a once over just to check if everything was good, and in working order and discovered that the turbo had seen better days with lots of play. which brings us up to the next chapter, TD04We bought a TD04 from a friends of mine who breaks Subarus bought a second hand external TD04 kit form Charlotte and installed it and the car works perfectly! Megan's current;y driving it around as we speak, properly since buying the car in February. I'll get some proper photos when she is clean Quote Link to post Share on other sites
