Right so thats my effort what do ya think
plan this year is to change the turbo to gt2835 or 2860 with 2 bar of boost get a diff in the box and just drive. A lot of time money and effort has gone into it, its treated like a baby always seriveced regulary

Nice build mate, what sort of power did you make on that setup using the emanage blue? Was hoping you'd have some nice pics of the engine bay at the bottom of the page, love seeing how people have decorated their bay

coming together nicely man nice car to move aswell :) two things i would change though lol that ecu must be holding you back and the piping in the intercooler would piss me off hanging below the bumper ha ha

definitely a sleeper too :)

Nice spec, some great parts in there. Can I ask you what compression ratio the engine is with the dished pistons and 2mm head gasket?

to be honest im embarressed to show the engine bay at this time the rocker cover gasket has split the there is a bit oil around the place but i hope to get around to sorting out the look of it soon i'll get pics up when i do

you and that ecu you have never liked it but at the moment its doing fine its fueling it grand only running a bar at the moment the turbo is kinda on the way out the intercooler piping isn't too bad i like the fact i have never seen another starlet intercooler like it. it looks a bit dopey tho i have to have the front rasied up cos i had to put 20mm spacers on to fit the wheels over the brakes and if i lower it, it will catch the arch

i think it is running 8.5:1 im not 100 percent sure cos i was running a 1.4 mm gasket up to the last min it got changed to the 2mm
