Liam_D Posted October 5, 2011 Author Posted October 5, 2011 the carbon bonnet reallywasnt working for me when you first fitted it but now looks mint!whats the plans for the body work? standard or going to kit her out?Yeah same for me mate, i hated the bonnet to start off with but now i wouldnt change it for the world. Plan is to keep it pretty much as it is on the outside, not really a massive fan of the bodykits. You are too harsh on this car man lmao! It's come a long way already, liking it Meh, it deserves it for being a prick at times!! lol.Bet it sounds AWESOME with the buddy as well Looks mint mate Sounds insane matey, ill have to get a video done.love it Liam! An OEM lip kit would complete it for me. I want a white glanza so badly.Yeah think a OEM Lip kit will be the only way ill go with the bodywork mate. Quote
ryan33hks Posted October 5, 2011 Posted October 5, 2011 Looking good mate, personally i'd have done the intercooler black though. I don't like any potential challengers to know its got a turbo... Quote
Liam_D Posted October 6, 2011 Author Posted October 6, 2011 Yeah plan was orginally to get it all including the pipework powdercoated but as i said it was all a bit of a rush job as things didnt go to plan. Really like it silver, no doubt it'll go black when its looking a but tired though! Quote
McGlinchey Posted October 8, 2011 Posted October 8, 2011 Lovely car lad, some great mods.. As already said oem splitters would set it off Quote
Liam_D Posted October 9, 2011 Author Posted October 9, 2011 Thanks mate. Car had a service yesterday using a Magnetic HKS Oil Filter, and some ENEOS oil. Running sweet. Also managed to get the boost controller fitted finally, but its not working properly and the car is overboosting and hitting fuel cut again Quote
string Posted October 9, 2011 Posted October 9, 2011 meet next weekend? check ya controller over. could always switch off to run spring pressure till its sorted? Quote
Starlet__SR Posted October 9, 2011 Posted October 9, 2011 Thanks mate. Car had a service yesterday using a Magnetic HKS Oil Filter, and some ENEOS oil. Running sweet. Also managed to get the boost controller fitted finally, but its not working properly and the car is overboosting and hitting fuel cut again Wound mine down to like 0.5 bar just to avoid it lol. Still interesting to drive though lol. You still on standard actuator?D Quote
Liam_D Posted October 9, 2011 Author Posted October 9, 2011 meet next weekend? check ya controller over. could always switch off to run spring pressure till its sorted?Yes if i dont get it sorted before mate, im definatly up for it as i cant use boost at all. Will turn it off tomorrow and see if itll boost to where it needs too.Wound mine down to like 0.5 bar just to avoid it lol. Still interesting to drive though lol. You still on standard actuator?DDont have a actuator matey, its externally gated.what controller are you running?Blitz SBC matey. Quote
Starlet__SR Posted October 9, 2011 Posted October 9, 2011 Ahh yeah, sorry matey, forgot lol. Like String said, cant you just set the boost off the wastegate?D Quote
string Posted October 9, 2011 Posted October 9, 2011 you just set controller to off and then it doesn't interfere with boost but Still displays readings and warnings etc Quote
Liam_D Posted October 10, 2011 Author Posted October 10, 2011 Yeah did that mate, and it was still creeping. Think i had some pipes mixed up swapped them around today and it was working better. Having a load more issues with it though so think im going to remove it and just run the manual controller again. :/ Quote
Liam_D Posted October 16, 2011 Author Posted October 16, 2011 Big thankyou to Craig (String) for yesterday. Think the Blitz EBC is now working correctly. Just got to find out what boost i can run keep upping it slowly and theres a slight hesitaion under hard boost but think that to do with the settings on the controller. Time to start tidying the car back up now! Quote
Liam_D Posted October 24, 2011 Author Posted October 24, 2011 Not an update but thought i would just say that the car is running awesome! Really happy with it at the minute Quote
Jozinobi Posted October 24, 2011 Posted October 24, 2011 A small progress update is an update nonetheless bro Glad its running better for you now, I'd still let someone who knows their ebcs to set the gain etc better for you to get the best out of it.Keep on rolling dude.Joz Quote
Liam_D Posted October 24, 2011 Author Posted October 24, 2011 Yeah thats the plan mate, the hesitaion has completey stopped now though! Quote
ollie ryan Posted October 24, 2011 Posted October 24, 2011 good to hear matei seriously cant wait to have my V back, been to long now since i had a good drive in her Quote
Liam_D Posted October 25, 2011 Author Posted October 25, 2011 Thanks guys, just dunno what to do next! ECU, Big Brakes or Clutch? All stuff im gonna need soon but all very expensive. Really want a hardcore seat and harness ASAP aswell. Quote
ollie ryan Posted October 25, 2011 Posted October 25, 2011 brakesseriosuly regret not doing them nowgo straight for 4pots from keri Quote
ro55ifumi Posted October 25, 2011 Posted October 25, 2011 ECU then brakes then clutch an glad your back enjoying it mateJohn Quote
GavCheung88 Posted October 25, 2011 Posted October 25, 2011 what brakes you thinking of getting buddy? Quote
Amjad Posted October 25, 2011 Posted October 25, 2011 Brakes, safety first. Then clutch, an ECU and the associated power upgrade may make the old one slip. ECU last Quote
