daniel_g Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Made quick work of that buddy nice one be interesting to see pics of the exhaust when its built, there really isnt a lot of space for a good system if you go over the axle which is a bit shit because side exits arent for everyone.

Scoobysvx Posted July 28, 2014 Author Share Posted July 28, 2014 Cheers guys!The system is made up and fitted I'll pop some pictures up tonight If I get a chance, sound beefy! It's only got a stubby back box and some more modification may come if I choose to swap over to a glanza rear end as I think it's an inch or less to the right. I've been out briefly with 4 people in the car and it doesn't knock what so ever so I'm pleased with it!Also got my new clutch and race spec rocker cover coming too Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Socks Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Awesome Stuff! Videos! Hows it drive buddy!? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Scoobysvx Posted July 28, 2014 Author Share Posted July 28, 2014 Haha Yes they'll come soon!Tbh I've not really used it much at all due to a few thing that need to be done, currently using 206!!! I just wanted to get it all running and drivable to make sure all was well.Despite the gearing not being to friendly on the motorway I think it goes well with a larger turbo as your never to far away from boost! The drum issue is back though! I've got 2 new slave cylinders on order as I don't believe 1 of them is returning as it should. Along with a few other service bits to be fitted Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Scoobysvx Posted July 28, 2014 Author Share Posted July 28, 2014 Well ill start with the exhaust system, as you can see its far from the workmanship of race-tech & Wepr Etc but for the price and turn around time I'm happy with it for now! Here's the front half, with the lowering springs on the front its about as low as its every going to sit so it shouldn't be too much of a problem! There's the backbox, it does look incredibly close but like i said it doesn't knock unless you give it a hard push... which i cant exactly replicate when driving so it shouldn't be an issue! As said before if i wish to use the glanza bumper then ill have to get the backbox moved over a couple of inches Apologies for the poor pictures!! I will get some when its in the air soon so you get a better idea A couple of the much needed clutch, got it for a great price and as you can see its only just been run in ready for me to abuse ;) Race spec rocker cover which has been smoothed off, and soon to be polished Of course i had to show it off at work Also got one of the guys to give it a quick clean... Not so stealthy though! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Pikey009 Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 I owned it for a week before finding out my lass was expecting so sold to socks. Had a lot of parts ready to go good to see it's gone to another good home though! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Scoobysvx Posted December 2, 2014 Author Share Posted December 2, 2014 Hello guysSorry for the delay! My project has been put to one side at the moment due to some unfortunate events the day before mapping... I had it booked in at street-racer to be mapped on a Saturday, after ringing about the essex area I couldn't find anyone who'd map it! They seem pretty good there, mainly working on civics I believe having there own one running in the 9s at santa podsSo after my pre flight checks on Friday I decided to take it out for a quick spin to make sure all was well and after introducing a small amount of boost I encounted a quite serious misfire much to my disappointmet, after checking it over I carried out a compression test to find one cylinder was down to around 170 whilst another was at 200 and the rest around 220 😞So she's been stood up in the garden waiting for my savings to grow!I think ill get street racer to build my forged 5e after speaking to them as they said they deal with zisco quite a lot so sourcing the parts is easier for them & they've built a fair few 4e's! As far as the body is concerned, it will be converted to look like a glanza with my toms rep front bumper fitted, eventually! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Scoobysvx Posted January 8, 2015 Author Share Posted January 8, 2015 Not as yet mate, trying to save up still but it's not the best time of the year obviously.I'd like to get the engine out when I'm free and start cleaning up the bay ready for painting along with the gear and transfer box.Also on the hunt for some decent wheels 😊 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Scoobysvx Posted January 18, 2015 Author Share Posted January 18, 2015 Not much of an update but I had to fire her up today as I'd finally got round to selling the V shellPut the 4 wheel drive to the test on the wet grass! There was tiny bit of spinning on the front wheels until the back come to the rescue 😛I took what I needed off there before she went.I'll be looking for a carbon bonnet & boot with mid spolier as well now Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Scoobysvx Posted January 28, 2015 Author Share Posted January 28, 2015 I received a nice package from meister today 😄Can't wait to get these fitted, hopefully the weathers good at the weekend and I can crack onI'm also speaking to my engine builder about forging my 5e so that should be coming along soon!In the mean time I'm just trying to collect all the little bits and pieces required to finish it off. Got my purple an10 breather fittings not long ago and I'm also going to get the same ones for my fuel lines. My braided clutch line came yesturday too!Once I've got everything off the parts will be going off to the polisher, along with a painted engine bay it should look pretty fresh 😊 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Looking good Jack, you'll need to report back in here on how the coilovers are, how they sit etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Scoobysvx Posted January 28, 2015 Author Share Posted January 28, 2015 Yeh sure man, obviously I can't go too low because of my exhaust but Im definitely going to have a play around with them! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Scoobysvx Posted February 4, 2015 Author Share Posted February 4, 2015 Not much of an update but some more an fittings arrived today...I'll be using these for my fuel lines now, going from the filter to the rail... And from the rail to the FRP... What have people used for there return though?Also using them to replace my leaking td04 water pipes! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Scoobysvx Posted February 7, 2015 Author Share Posted February 7, 2015 Loads more goodies arrived this week The rest of my braided fittings, most of which are pre made to may need cutting down Polished fuel rail with an6 fittings welded on each end Purple hose piping to replace the blue which is already there New OE spec release bearing as i didn't like the thinner one supplied with my clutch kit Track rod ends & ball joints Purple oil filter sandwich plate 5e Flywheel conversion, which i may get send off to be lightened Rx8 Injectors i got off the bay for £60! Will be sent of to be tested, cleaned & Rebuild depending on what they say after the testing... Still going to be cheaper than buying them from TD for £200++ And my solid shifter bushes Now I've got some fitting to be getting on with! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Scoobysvx Posted March 14, 2015 Author Share Posted March 14, 2015 Well I finally found some time and had a little bit of sunshine so I thought I better crack on with the 95! My parts list is complete now excluding the engine, which will be built once the shell is ready for it. Abs delete kit & boost, oil temp & pressure gauges are en route too Here is my first meister coilover installed on the n/s/f While I was there I thought it’d be a good time to install my celica brake kit. I had to grind down the lip of the backing plate for the discs to clear Looking a lot smarter & should be 10x better than stock!! Some shinny new rotas to finish it off! The rears can’t get any easier tbh And back on the ground Looks so much better now I haven’t adjusted the suspension at all I just fitted it as they came. I’m going to come back to it tomorrow and hopefully get it looking more level! Then the geo set up will come once the engine is fitted Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Flynn Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 Yes! Will be keeping an eye on this build Quote Link to post Share on other sites
