Ep911-20v Posted September 1, 2014 Author Share Posted September 1, 2014 Cool build man. Where abouts in Sydney are you from? I used to live in the Eastern Suburbs.....never saw any starlets while I was there ....a good few scoobies and evos though.. Kings cross actually there's a fair few getting around nowYeah, Rockingham just South of Perth. I bought mine from Melbourne (eBay) earlier today, $74 delivered for a GTi 2 core alloy rad, not bad considering a stock replacement is 400+ in stores.Yeah I paid 100 bucks all up for my set up Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ep911-20v Posted September 5, 2014 Author Share Posted September 5, 2014 Me and a friend went halves in this 180sx about a year ago Sr20det Gt2871r Bride seats R33 brakes all round and lots of other awesome mods.....anyway he did 12.8 second 1/4 mile while I was on holidays with a rich tune and some cheap shit tyres with better tyres should run flat 12s if not lower very happy with such a cheap investment (bought the car at a rediculous low price) it also does some very respectable lap times on street tyres next up is semi slicks Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ep911-20v Posted September 20, 2014 Author Share Posted September 20, 2014 New shoes!In desperate need of coilovers to drop it some more and cause my front shocks are near deadFound some interesting info on adjusting the fuel pressure from 40psi up to 44psi for some more low to mid range acceleration so gonna give it a go and see what happens Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mikey4410 Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Love this.what sort of power you producing ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ep911-20v Posted September 28, 2014 Author Share Posted September 28, 2014 So roughly 120hp at the wheels with factory ecu and factory trumpets Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ep911-20v Posted October 3, 2014 Author Share Posted October 3, 2014 Delivery for today New genuine toyota :Oil filler cap Valve cover gasket Distributor cap Distributor button And had top gun leads made up with dual spiral core rated upwards of 315 degrees Celsius With the same performance as 9mm or 10mm thick leads that fit in factory holders Next up is tomei fuel pressure regulator (when it finally arrives apparently australia post lost it ....... Yeah) And only a couple more weeks till coilovers get ordered Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 Not a bad figure, was about what mine made with just an exhuast.Decent manifold and a set of trumpets bagged me about another 10whp and cams made another 6whp still running the auto ecu. I could probably do with giving my dizzy an overhaul now I've seen this! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ep911-20v Posted October 3, 2014 Author Share Posted October 3, 2014 You really should ill post pics of the old cap and button Trumpets are on the list next spoke to sq again after you asked about the restriction on the trumpets in the plenum morgey They tell me they have tested the sh$t out of them and haven't found any so I'm gonna give them a go How's your driveability with those cams?? What's the degrees? Did you retain vvt? I seem they are tomei Pom cams I think? And no problems with the factory ecu? I'd read through your build but it's massive Quote Link to post Share on other sites

What's the degrees?Did you retain vvt? I seem they are tomei Pom cams I think?And no problems with the factory ecu?I'd read through your build but it's massive If you could. I did look at mine and they looked a bit pitted but not too bad.I've looked at them sq ones and some reviews and they seem to be spot on. Well worth the money it would seem.Drivability is okish theres a flat spot around 3k or vvt change over. I think it needs mapping out but it is bareable and after 3k it revs out fine. Had the fueling checked and its still spot on.Vvt remains yes.Tomei poncams 264 256 not sure on lift maybe around 9mm? Not sure which duration is inlet and exhaust though.

Ep911-20v Posted October 3, 2014 Author Share Posted October 3, 2014 After doing all the leads and dizzy freshen up its just alot smoother ive seen the quality before on their coolant block kits for rwd set ups their machining is very good Ill look into cams a lil later was just worried about how it drives down low mostly as it's my daily drive to work and back is roughly 60 something kms With speed cameras down most of the roads I use Was originally thinking of leaving the engine internals factory but I'm not getting rid of the car anytime soon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ep911-20v Posted October 3, 2014 Author Share Posted October 3, 2014 Just looked on tomei USA website I shouldn't have asked....... Now I'm gonna be burning till I get a set Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 Theyre not too bad to fit. Took an afternoon including checking clearances before and after i only dropped these in on the oem pulleys so probably not as setup as they could be. Only thing i forgot to do was put some sealant in and around the cam and endcaps so have a slight oil leak. In terms for cost for power these are around £500 here and mapped can see upto 12-15whp. My manifold, trumpets and filter cost about the same and gained around 10whp aswell. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ep911-20v Posted October 3, 2014 Author Share Posted October 3, 2014 It's already fitted with hks 4-2-1 manifold but gonna do trumpets and see how I go first need to sort my suspension out first but cams should be on the cards later Quote Link to post Share on other sites
