The rods i am getting with the kit dont have big end shells with them. does anybody know if i should be able to fit stardard ones or can i get uprated items? or do i need to contact the manufacturer? :confused:

cheers mate. I really dont want them to tell me iv made the wrong decision tho lol! im in too deep now unless i sell the internals i suppose.

yea well i already have the internals for my engine. i think the guy on yarisclub did it cuz he had a 1.0 16v which is useless so he needed an engine swap anyway. what you reckon bout the swap?

Yea i have seen it in one on the yarisclub you're right! Im sure its way more of a headache than a bolt on turbo tho. http://www.yarisclubuk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=4217

unfortunately the 4ef-te is the wrong way round. this would mean serious mods and would probs end up more expensive than this route. plus i would need a complete engine with all ancilliaries and loom etc. would be a complete nightmare! And yea Flywheel power is always higher but i think the...

I dont think its the cost thats the problem, more the availability. i reckon the cost would probably be something similar for a vitz engine but the shipping costs etc would be pretty big and the engine i should end up with using the forged internals would be stronger even if it will take a fair...

Found them on eBay but they didnt meet the reserve of £400. I reckon with the crank, block and pistons and rods its a bargain. Just trying to get the guy to hurry up and send me his address etc so i can arrange delivery! To be honest im not looking for scooby baiting power at the minute. A safe...

Hi, sorry to start another thread about this but i just ordered forged internals (pistons rods and modified block and crank) for my 1.5 yaris TS with plans for a turbo. Got 2 kits on my radar but it all depends on the funds at the min. Im sure the cheap kit is crap but I reckon it would make a...

Celica GT4 Sold My brother bought this car last night. Sucha a steal!

Cheers for the help. Im still using the car for chinese deliveries at the min so I will probably start working on it again in the summer when i get a proper job. I reckon a bolt on turbo kit running low boost is the way to go. I really wana have a yaris wif a dirty big dump valve!

I have a fairly quick yaris and would like to take it to the next level possibly. Not sure whether to go down the turbo or supercharging route but it is already fitted with dastek unichip. Any help or ideas would be much appreciated. Cheers ( I do realise this is a gtt forum by the way!!)

Hi, just signed up. Was at Rolling road day in Ballymena in my Yaris TS. Interested in either turbo'ing or supercharging the yaris possibly coming into the summer if anyone can help?? I hear they are only capable of holding 160bhp without melting. Not sure if this is true tho. Cheers
