Recommended Posts

hello boys and girls

thought i would do one of these while she watches x factor

i bought the car in 2003 and the spec of it was

1995 on a m

tein hr coilovers

black racing wheels

5 zeegan cat back saust

hks turbo timer

hks mushroom filter

had only 44000km on and cost me £5000

was well happy with it bare in mind back in 2003 these cars were really rare think when i was llooking there was only 3 i could find

here it is then

i thought it looked good not now tho

i went thro a stage of been a bad lad and the car ended up being off the road for 5 years. during this time while i was getting shit faced and pissing the bed most weekends the garage roof blew of and on the the car damaging a small bitt just in fron of the rear window on drivers side.

i fianally got my licence back in 2008

just drove the car for a while as i was skint but then decided to get a turbo set up so i went for a custom zisco top mounted vf23 set up and also a japspeed full system and a new set of bc coilovers as the tein were starting to leak. i got a japspeed front mount and gizmo boost controler wat a pile of shit

my mate paul who is on here as bean wbuilding a ep85 monster i got him in to starlets by the wayho is

time to take it for a drive no boost wat so ever. so i decided to get an emanage ultimate and go to tuning development nick set it up and was struggeling to get it to boost he managed to get it to 1 bar and made it safe but boy was it still slow

here is the emanage and a lot better boost controller a blitz dsbc

i then got home and took it to a local dyno cauld jdm it made 218bhp and 183lbft just did not feel like it.

here is the graph

the dyno bloke said there is something wrong as its boost was all over the place. i thought fuck it just drive and a week later the turbo shat its self. so i rang bean up so we built a good td04 out of to fucked ones lol it worked. but still no boost and we new with this turbo we should have ample boost. ha ha we found the problem massive boost leak to be fare nick at tuning developments should of noticed this same as the dyno man. it was my old arc dumpvalve that i butchered to fit the new pipe work. i bought a forge twin piston one to put me on.

and fuck me right up to 1.7bar i thought fuck engine has gone. but no it was fine put the boost back down to a bar and went back to jdm dyno.

little less bhp but a lot more torque on lot smaller turbo 210bho 200lbft not bad

i now decided on a new spray job and new 16srota grid wheels and 4 pot wms brakes

Wow, good stuff. seven years and the GT still puts a smile on your face, its a quality investment. hope to keep mine for as long as possible, especially as most the expensive parts i want are out the way. keep us up to date with how you get on with your inlet, i take it your gonna map it again soon to see the results from the mani change :(.

lol no not pissing the bed no more mate. as to wat power we thinks it should come some were close to 240 250. at a bar the vf 23 made that no problem at just under a bar and the vf28 is the same turbo with a slightly smaller saust side. will be getting it mapped again on wed this week but it will be on the vf 28 so wont really be able to compare witch is a shame might have a run thro tomorrow and do a quick power run only costs 30 quid and then take it back on wed but for a full new map

cheers boys pleased use like it

Nice little motor mate :D

Kinda liked it on the 17s :(

Love the Rotas but think they woulda been better in 15's :D

Looking forward to seeing what the new tubby produces :(

cheers mate it still needs all set up on them wheels really amongst over things. needs to go lower on the back and made a bit stiffer none of the pics do the car justice as it is so shiny it just glares back at the camera.
