Grant's ep70 4E-FTE daily Turbo-s bits :)

[turbo Grant]

I turned down the oem disc so it's a hub. And fits inside the fag discs. And machined a couple of mm off the caliper carriers. Re-drill caliper mounting bracket and you have a 256mm rear disc set up.

you will have to measure disc height for use so we can play to :)

ohh my god!! what did you do!!!! No hole in the piston but hole in the valve

abuse ? NOT GOOD!

But anyway how does the piston rings looks like....

When i had retarted ignition ( premature ) not only the valve;s were bend but 2 piston rings cracked and 2 piston rings turned out blue duo to the heat + pistons ring land was busted. But they came out 0 zero pressure during compression test... on cil 1 and 2.

Mayby check them if your unsure.

just changed the head and got it back together again a day or so later. Reused the mls head gasket with wellseal. The valve might have just gone because of a carbon hot spot. The Pistons look pretty good still. Will re-ring soon as the bored look a bit glazed and it uses a bit of oil.

Got round to putting the mid spoiler on today. Always fun drill holes in a perfectly good boot. Needs another respray as the paint match is crap. Will do that when I paint the sides of the car.

[Pikey009]

Do you live in Andover mate? Must be you as there aren't many of these kicking around. I've just moved down here and was driving around today when I drove past it looks awesome mate

[turbo Grant]

Was parked up at the Mrs today. I live near Andover, but have my workshop in Andover

[Socks]

was your turbo ok? your so lucky!

[turbo Grant]

I did strip the exhaust housing off and all was good

I recon a carbon build up on the valve cased a hot spot on the valve. It did let go on a 5th gear pull. After redlining 4th.

Sounded so naughty when you pulled off yesterday

Saw this car at japfest and fell in love with it! Love the old square jap cars. Keep it up man.

[NewbieLewby]

Looked awsome at Japfest! Looked so unsuspecting in the corner of the stand lol

[turbo Grant]

Was a good day out. Didn't take any pics tho! Was looking rather lonely with all the ep8* / ep91's and no ep70 friends lol

[turbo Grant]

Bit of an update. Got some rays for the 70

Excuse the red caliper it was a spare I put on. Not painted black yet.

[Takumi]

She's very Beautiful ;)

[turbo Grant]

Got a nice list of bits to do on this before fest2

Needs to play with arches, play with some camber on the back, sling one of my forged 5e's in, swap over my spare ep82 box with cusco diff, weld an extension in on my down pipe, fit 550cc injectors, finish plumbing in my oil cooler. Get a new wideband sensor and then road map it. Will be fun as I'll still using it as my daily lol

[theminiguru]

Love this! Gets better the more I see it. Great work grant.

[Matt1878]

Love the Rays but whatever you had on before I loved more! Wedsports maybe?

[turbo Grant]

So had a good time at japfest2. Clutch was playing up and boiling my clutch fluid and making my pedal disappear. Was quite interesting going to down shift into a corner and nothing!

Few pics that I got tagged in on fb

[Stu]

Looking pretty good dude!

[turbo Grant]

So I finaly got round to sorting out the eml on this. Was coming on because of the ep82 wasn't getting a vss. The ep71 si clocks I fitted didn't have a vss. So I stipped old ep82 and my clock down to see what I could do. I'm happy to say the the ep82 vss fits In my clocks with only drilling 1 hole and wiring.

[akyakapotter]

I get eml light on mine because of vss can't figure out how to fix it pisses me right off
