EP82 Street/Race Japan

nice......custom fd? ratio? or putting in the 4.3 from levin?

[EP82 Touge]

The K1-200v is getting a quick check over currently before installing. Out of curiosity are you other guys with K1's running standard fuel pump and injectors?

In terms of the gearbox either the Levin 4.3 or TRD 4.7 FD. Also seems like Fensport/M Factory advertise a 4.7

[Gainzy]

I run stock injectors at 1 bar and a 255 fuel pump on my k1 I'm sure I read that the blitz actuators are 1.1 bar pre set. What are you doing with the ecu?

[Nanglebadger]

Running mine with stock injectors, stock fuel pump, and Blitz Access ECU with an HKS adjustable actuator, set somewhere around 0.9 - 0.95 bar.

Thanks Gainzy, I'm going to put the car on the Dyno once the K1 is installed just to check everything anyway. The Blitz Access ECU I have is labelled as a K1-200V ECU so I think that side of things will be fine.

This does sound like such a great setup for what its used for.

There is a theme here of massive overkill on starlets basically, this is quite refreshing to see

I most agree keeping it simple wins in the long run!

Lovin it. Thats the same exact setup i picture doin on my car someday. EXACT!

[EP82 Touge]

[EP82 Touge]

I plan to tidy up the aero a bit by painting the splitter the same as the front lip. Also have some fog light blanking plates to go in.

And picked up a pair of 7.5" Weds TC005.

i see on the tracking printout the caster readings ??

whaty car is used to show caster on starlets ?

nice progress by the way

[abbott]

Looks awesome dude cant wait to see it all done

[MustakimQZ]

Not sure if this was asked before, any reason you staying with top mount instead of front mount ?

[EP82 Touge]

MustakimQZ - The top mount seems to do the job. If I was do doing proper races with a lot of consecutive laps then I may need to reconsider, but for the style of racing I'm currently doing the top mount is less weight and better response. Track temperatures in Japan during the "racing season" can be quite cold also.

[EP82 Touge]

Since changing to the aftermarket manifold I didn't have a heat shield and as I'm still running the factory intake I figured it was worth while making something up.

Heat wrapped:

Installed:

Next project is blanking off the fog light holes. Contemplating using carbon fibre though.

Really enjoyable read, keep it up

[EP82 Touge]

The front diffuser is all fitted up and painted now.

I also had the car corner weighted (just out of interest for now)

[jiggaman_16]

I understand the disparity between the front right & left but the weights would be more even side to side at the back. ???

[starletezy]

awsome progress mate

[EP82 Touge]

That's correct, drivers seat and few other items perhaps. 6KG is not much disparity though I wouldn't think.

Updates needed
