Charlie28 Posted April 15, 2015 Author Posted April 15, 2015 Well I'm desperately trying to get the car running for the summer, whilst saving for Australia in June! My friend just sent me some pictures of my billet TD04 which I will be running on a standard engine for the summer. Apologises for the pictures but I'll get some better ones when I have it towards the end of the week! The turbo will be clocked when I receive it and I should get round to fitting it this weekend! If anyone is interested in a billet TD04 or a custom spec TD04 PM me Quote
Charlie28 Posted April 17, 2015 Author Posted April 17, 2015 Billet TD04 turned up today. Chuffed with it! Going to fit it this evening Quote
Charlie28 Posted April 17, 2015 Author Posted April 17, 2015 And fitted, more updates to follow tomorrow! Quote
Charlie28 Posted April 21, 2015 Author Posted April 21, 2015 She's back down on all 4 wheels now which is a point in the right direction! Had some trouble starting her, turned out the coolant sensor was loose! Managed to get her started but she isn't running perfectly, FPR was leaking pretty badly so I've sorted that and will attempt to get her going again this evening! Fingers crossed! Quote
Charlie28 Posted May 7, 2015 Author Posted May 7, 2015 Not much progress on this, can't seem to get the timing right! Going to buy a new belt tensioner as I believe the belt is slipping. But won't be doing this till I'm back from Australia in July! Little update though, this turned up from WallaceGlanza and I will be getting it sprayed and fitted when I'm back Needs a little bit of tweaking to fit round my Intercooler! Quote
RobSR Posted May 7, 2015 Posted May 7, 2015 Shame to hear about the timing. Give me a shout if you need a hand / a second pair of eyes to look at it as I'm only down the road. Quote

RobSR Posted May 8, 2015 Posted May 8, 2015 No worries mate. I've never been defeated by an issue on a starlet so hopefully this isn't the first lol! Quote
Kate Posted May 16, 2015 Posted May 16, 2015 I was told about rob ripping u off, I never knew he was like that but as previously mentioned it is weird how he broke it very quickly and got very shirty with people when they asked why etc! Anyway keep at it Charlie, looking good x Quote
Bussey Posted May 27, 2015 Posted May 27, 2015 I believe someone bought the turbo and it was shagged. But I've fitted another turbo to the engine and ran the car and it knocks badlyYup, I was good mates with rob and even I got ripped off 450 quid for a fucked gt28.And any updates mate? Quote

littlegreenmonster Posted June 2, 2015 Posted June 2, 2015 Surely you would smell it though all that oil sprting around some must have hit the side exit that ran underneath lol Quote
