Phil Posted November 30, 2014 Author Posted November 30, 2014 Never did mention that one of the reasons I considered selling the buddy clubs was I had sourced some sparco crimson ns2 alloys.So I've decided to keep the buddyclubs eyes peeled on the forsale section if someone is looking some genuine Jdm lightweight wheels Will be selling the sparco crimsons soon once I get good picturesPhil Quote
Phil Posted December 5, 2014 Author Posted December 5, 2014 (edited) New valvesNew vs old4efe 4age 4efte valve springsAll the gearNo idearSo lapping in up next So to summarise my plan with the head, im replacing the exhaust valves and all the valve stem oil seals and lapping both exhaust and intake valves to get a fresh seal.so whilst my exhaust valves are shiny new, i still need to get my intake valves looking worthy.so thats what i got stuck into tonight.Left old but polished, right old not polished.then i lapped in the exhaust valves and got them numbered up to go back where they are matched to.tomorrow evening ill hopefully get the intake valves lapped in and then i can start looking at gasket matching and a mild port here and there.then it'll be time for a final clean and re assemble.anyone know the cost of new 4efte valve springs? or even the part number?do old springs wear out much my car and head only has 50k on it so fresh ish but springs have small amount of surface rust Chris green where is your SAfrica Toyota parts link?Phil Edited December 5, 2014 by Phil Quote
daniel_g Posted December 5, 2014 Posted December 5, 2014 Lucky you, lapping in valves is mind numbing haha. Quote
