jakeep82 Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Think its time i started a build thread ! (forgive the shit right up im no good with things like this )Started off me buying my forged ep82 , how it stood when i bought it When i got it it wasnt running right so i set aside to get it running right , after some mind racking time and some help from ukso she was up and running right . Internal wastegate wasnt welded up and the boost controller wasnt set up properly, had the whole manifold and exhaust system off. Welded up the internal wastegate and fully heatwrapped from mani to the back box using magma heat wrap . New splitter and tinted foglights went on. Managed to find a breaker near me with all black pannels so had the lot and made the gt fully black , here it is at jae After getting back from jae and seeing all the stripped out ep's it was time to get rid of the interior and strip off the window tints, out with the interior. Hammered off all the sound proofing and then used a drill with a metal wire brush to bring up the last little bits and the glue. Attended a drag and drift day was first time on the strip and had fastest fwd of the day Went on a bit of a spend out bought a big brake upgrade courtesy or wms and bought Rbz Sa3r's off him. Picked up some coilovers off a breaker i know and now this is how my ep82 sits now. Changed the black tinted indicators for some clear ones and they look a lot better too Little added jdm extra ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jakeep82 Posted February 1, 2013 Author Share Posted February 1, 2013 had bit of a struggle getting her up on the ramps as its a little too low at the front at the minute so took bit of time bumper had to come off. had 2 days off work so i set out getting the manifold and all apart to get the new hybrid turbo on , got it all apart then had a sheered bolt so had to drill it out and put a new nut and and bolt through instead Its safe to say my old td04 has had its day his a quick pic of the blades, all the corners are chipped and bent. The new hybrid against my old td04l , slight size difference Quote Link to post Share on other sites
