TRD Replica, finished and then unfinished project

As title, its a TRD replica that has been finished then used and now needs to be tidied up again. I bought it from ebay about 18 months ago and it had been badly customised on 18 inch wheels with a terrible white plastic interior and badly adjusted coil overs. I put these wheels on from my MR2 with ...

Re: Lambda sensor cheat

Lambda 'cheat' is for cars with a pre and post cat lambda. The pre cat lambda does the important stuff the post cat just makes sure the cats working and flags up a light if its not. When you fit a decat you have to make sure the 2 lambdas read differently to avoid the malfunction light coming on. Th...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Twin Turbo/Twin Charging

Mmmmm, compound turbo, Arghlll (Homer Simpson style)

http://www.dsmtuners.com/threads/my-com ... up.336541/

I read this years ago but saved it, it made like 600bhp but totally stuck it to 750bhp motors with single turbo setups. Got to build the bottom end for mega boost, like 30-45psi

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Compression ratios and head gaskets

Wow, is the factory head gasket really 1.4mm thick compressed? Is this the same for the rev1/2 and rev3+ gaskets?

Re: [Mk2] [NA] N/a ecu's talk to me (in the voice of terry tibbs)

I'd go for a rev 3 ECU given that most of the things that will effect the tune of the engine (inlet, cams, throttle body?) are rev3. The block wont make much difference and there is not much difference between the rev2 and 3 heads on the GE lump, not like the GTE lump where they differ massively.

Whats a good rev2 turbo lump worth

Basically my Turbo which is stuck in my garage got cannibalised for spares for my TRD rep, its too far gone for me to be bothered to put back together. The engine is good with an indicated 91k on the clock, obviously a mixture of miles and kms. The water pipes front to rear leak and I've removed som...

Re: turbo kit recommendations

There is a company that makes a bolt on kit for the 28 range of turbos, it has an adaptor for both the stock manifold and stock downpipe. I cant find it now but I was looking at it just the other day. I have bought an adaptor from ebay that converts from Toyota to GT28 size and am putting together t...

Re: [Mk2] [Generic] What is this Piece called?

Sounds like the cotter pin and clevis pin. I think the bit you describe is the clevis and the 'R' pin is the cotter.

Re: [Mk2] [Generic] yay, border bumper fitted tomorrow, more updates :)

Yeah thats the kind of finish you will get in a home garage in this weather. You can colour sand it smooth as long as its thick enough, start with 1500 until its smooth but will be matt then buff with corse to fine cutting compunds.

Re: [Mk2] [Generic] yay, border bumper and "ferarri reps" fitted tomorrow!!!

If you copy and paste the links they work. Looks ready to go. Did you test fit the bumper before painting? I have had 3 now and they have all been so far out it was stupid.

Re: MOT fail

I'd be worried about having the sills patched up without investigating whats rotted out inside. An MoT and 'structurally sound' are 2 different things.
