Idrees Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Just caught up on this now, epic build and an inspiration for the ID-Workz EP82! The paint job looks awesome on those parts too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Greenmachine81 Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Right so a little update! Got hold of Keith from Zisco and he sorted out the exhaust for me, he sent basically a spacer which will do the job for now! Then it was time to start her up! I decided to crank the engine first without the king lead in it to get oil around the engine, turbo and other components but this was not to be! Fuel was pissing from the fuel rail! It was coming from all 4 injectors and both ends of the Zisco fuel rail! Did some asking about and didnt realise that copper washers were needed on both ends of the fuel rail as none were supplied :\ so got them and then bought some new injector seals from toyota, Fitted these and the injectors were still leaking but the ends stopped so sand papered out the bores in the injectors as there was a bit of powdercoat in them, put it all back together and now stopped leaking from the ends again! This carried on for 5 HOURS!!! Wanted to put a brick through the thing but instead i rang Mike@Tuning Developments The car is going in on the 29th March for a couple of little bits including the fuel rail problems and Mapping! Cant actually wait! So whilst i have basically done all the mechanical work i decided to get onto the bodywork! Livesports spoiler fitted to fibreglass bootlid and rear lip mocked up ready for the bumper to go into paint Livesports sideskirts on! Vented wings on Also today i put the old grille back in and im currently waiting on a Front Livesports lip and Toms grille I stared at the car for like 20 mins today as it was 1 year today i took the thing off the road for all the work to be done and im pretty impressed with myself! First propper build like engine out and replace ive actually done so lets hope Tuning Developments have more luck than me! Roll on the 29th March!! is that an orig Rs 500 i see beside your car??

Wardy Posted March 18, 2014 Author Share Posted March 18, 2014 Thanks guys! First track day will either be Lydden hill race circuit at BHP show or a Brands Hatch evening when the car is done Yes it's my dad's 3 door cosworth, when I'm not working on mine I help him with his. Immaculate condition and roughly 43000 miles on the clock Won't be as fast as the starlet though hehe! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Greenmachine81 Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 not to many of these left looks to be a cracker.. my mate has one hardly never gets it out tho.. same really.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wardy Posted April 6, 2014 Author Share Posted April 6, 2014 Little bit of an update Fitted my AFR gauge made by Innovite Received my Livesports front splitter which was not fixed onto my car it was moulded onto my front bumper making a seemless fit, also did this to my rear bumper! Then it was upto Fast Road Conversions to sort out my Zisco exhaust which didnt fit! A couple of shots whilst on the ramps Some more pictures of the bumpers Then the big thing,The car was going upto Warrington to Tuning Developments to have a few problems sorted out and Mapped!So managed to get hold of a trailer and a tow car. The tow car although it looked like nothing special it was actually pretty cool!It was an Audi A6 4.2 V8 Quattro Allroad with 300hp! Drove beautifully and pretty quick for a barge of a car! Once the exhaust was done it was time to load the car Then we left for Warrington at 4.15am and as im from South East Kent i knew it was going to be about a 5 hour drive there! Pulled over at a fuel station, one of many! Then at roughly 9.45am after a couple of stops we reached Tuning Developments where there was a Corrolla rolling road day so i did feel a little bit out of place lol!Mike and Nick both came out to help me unload which was good of them and then had a long chat about what i wanted them to do and i was very happy with their attitudes and their way of thinking!Cant wait to get it back now! Will update you guys when i get an ETA of work to be finished and the all important figures! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bluebear Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 (edited) Aha! It was you who rolled up at the Corolla RR day I was there with the Corollas, going on a power run. Mine was the black GT looking fairly stock on the outside with gold wheels if you remember it. I was going to say something to you, but you looked fairly busy Edited April 6, 2014 by Bluebear Quote Link to post Share on other sites
