Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Just purchased a Turbo, advice on whats fitted, FCON ECU and engine bay bits
I used to have a Bailey dump valve, that's the easiest location to install it.

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Just purchased a Turbo, advice on whats fitted, FCON ECU and engine bay bits
In Japan they use a higher octane fuel.
I would have it checked out to be on the safe side. Detonation will soon destroy the engine if not properly tuned.

Re: IS200 ABS sensors
Kirk, I have been reading conflicting reports about people extending their ABS sensor cables with success (off-roading jeeps mainly). I was thinking that if you do get a IS200 sensor and it is the correct size for the rear hub, then you may want to extend it. Test it first if you do go down that rou...

Re: IS200 ABS sensors
Kirk would you measure the length and diameter of the original sensor i.e. the part that slots inside the hub.

Re: [Mk2] [Generic] Modified SW20 non-abs hubs
Correct pbmr2, that's what I was planning, a longer one would be ok to use. I don't mind which manufacturer of sensors I use, so long as the ABS ecu can communicate with them properly. There are loads of sensors out there, but not much info on their size and resistance.

Re: [Mk2] [Generic] Modified SW20 non-abs hubs
Drilling and tapping is a lot cheaper. If I do make a mistake then I will consider buying a used ABS hub. But until then I will search Google for suitable sensors. :roll: IIRC, a Lexus one fits the front with minimal mods. IS200 I think? perhaps IS200 rears could also work with modification? Kirk h...

Re: [Mk2] [Generic] Modified SW20 non-abs hubs
I am in Ireland, so the shipping distance increases the cost.

Re: [Mk2] [Generic] Modified SW20 non-abs hubs
That's true Gazza. My goal is to not only fit a ABS system, but to do it safely and as economically as possible. Which is why I am trying to find a cheap suitable sensor.

Re: [Mk2] [Generic] Modified SW20 non-abs hubs
It's a four channel from a MR2 Spyder.
It has been done before.

Re: [Mk2] [Generic] Modified SW20 non-abs hubs
I'm fitting a four channel abs system. I already have the abs system and I don't mind doing a bit of plumbing. You drill the hubs, not the calipers. Have you seen what a sensor looks like with 20+ years on it ? You are correct about new sensors, but they would be under a guarantee. Selling is not an...

Re: [Mk2] [Generic] Modified SW20 non-abs hubs
I would have to buy four hubs. I would have to buy four new sensors because I don't trust old sensors.
That lot would probably cost around £700.

[Mk2] [Generic] Modified SW20 non-abs hubs
Although I have only seen SW20 abs hubs in photos, it got me thinking. How difficult is it to modify the non-abs hubs to accept sensors ? Drill the hubs, one hole for the sensor and the other for the retaining screw. Tap the screw holes and install four abs reluctor / stator rings at each corner. Wh...

Re: IS200 ABS sensors
Kirk, if you decide to go ahead and try this, would you take a few photos of the original and the IS200 fitted.

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Clutch alignment tool
That's basically what I did with my wife's old Ford Ka.
I read that it's a bit more tricky with a twin plate. Anyway I ordered the clutch alignment tool. I will let you know how I get on.
