Jhandy Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 (edited) Right guys. I'm back. This time I'm building one from the ground up.I'm picking up the shell on weds off of epnick22. It's purely just a rolling shell. But that's what I want.I have been speaking to Keith over at zisco and he is building me a engine. Turbo kit. Inlet mani. Basically everything that's needed. I will put up a spec sheet. Once I have sent over a deposit to Keith and everything is finalised.The car won't see the road for a while. Because I want everything to be perfect. This is how the shell stands now. Still in nicks hands. He said he has got to tidy it back up. And get it rolling. But basically everything is there. Obviously once I have the car in my hands. I will try to update this page on a daily basis.I'm not going to say just yet. What power I'm aiming for that will come a little later on.

Jhandy Posted August 21, 2014 Author Share Posted August 21, 2014 Been a while since i said anything on here. Well not much to say really. I have seen the car once since i bought it. And just havent had the time. As i have been away racing basically every weekend. And my missus is 7 months pregnant so been doing a lot of baby stuff. But keith at zisco did send me a cheeky pic of my side mounted exhaust manifold. Which looks great. I cannot wait to get everything from him. I will put up a spec list to. Please comment away and let me.know what you thinkJakr Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jhandy Posted October 27, 2014 Author Share Posted October 27, 2014 Well this needs a update. What can i say havent done jack all lol.Been busy though me and jdmginge and our other mate rob. Have recently got our own unit. We are in the process of moving both our starlets over there. But everytime we do something comes up. Typical.Anyway. I have been in speaks with keith again and i have my final spec sheet for my engine. Yes the price is on it. But thats not the actuall price. Yes it may be expensive but he is not cutting any corners at all. Things will slow down now. Because me and the misses baby is due on thursday so that obviously a bigger priority. Once me and ginge have moved into the unit a will get some snaps up of the carsJake Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jhandy Posted November 9, 2014 Author Share Posted November 9, 2014 So today was the day. Me and jdmginge finally got our cars to our unit. And we had a little pkay also. We managed to get ginges running after about 8 months. Since he installed itb's got to admit sounds the nuts. Will be better once its fine tuned. Any way got cracking with my car Mine is the ep82. Anyway i decided i would start stripping the interior. Mainly because it wont have any and also to check all the wiring.Im glad i did check the wiring. Because the fuel pump wiring just looks like a complete bogeAnd this is some sort of fuel pump cut switch . I removed all the carpet and found some japanese money Its says 500 so i guess that means yen.Its obviously been to kwik fit in its life because someone has clearly jacked the car up hereSo thats all i got done today but its still progressJake Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jhandy Posted April 30, 2015 Author Share Posted April 30, 2015 right, havent updated here for a while, as a lot has happened tbh, im currently in the middle of trying to start my own business, and also trying to work out what to do with shell i have, as i have recently bought a fully forged toms kitted ep82, now do i use the shell or do i just put everything im getting built for me in the current car? i will upload some pics in a bit, when im on my phone, whats peoples suggestions, im heading towards getting rid of the shell and using the one i have just bought jake Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jiggaman_16 Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 lets see wat the new one looks like...... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jhandy Posted July 7, 2015 Author Share Posted July 7, 2015 So. A lot has happened since i last updated this. The original shell has been sold. And i now have this new one. I bought it in april. Its all fully forged. But since then. I have done a fair bit to it. Top mounted td05 hybrid turbo kit. Modded the front end. Completely poly bushed. All nrw suspension up front.. Im just waiting to gathet some funds then get it mapped. Here arr some picsI have the complete toms kit which is all original. Just not on car yet as i need it paintedIt also has this very rare trd speedo clusterHere is a most recent pic of the engine baySo what you think guysIm still going ahead with the zisco build as original. So that will all be put in this shell Quote Link to post Share on other sites
