The only time i come your way is when i go to watch the rugby.
Sure we can sort something.

Well! just so happens i live around the corner from the stadium, so next time you go watch a match i might even let you park on my drive  s;) s;)  hows that for an extra bonus! They normally charge around 20 quid upwards. extortionate.

PM me and i will send you my mobile number so we can organise. I know Rugby is a way off, but good to plan ahead.

Those lights look brilliant and the front bumper will look great when fitted, keep with it!

Thanks Logan!  I feel so useless at the moment,  the weather is rubbish. The main objectives for this year are to get the 200sx sorted for MOT and then turbo the 2. So the cosmetics may have to take the back burner for a bit.  If I spend very little time with the family, I guess I could get it all done. However that could end in divorce,  so I think stopping at 2 turbo cars running and driving would be a good achievement for 2016 lol!

I'm lucky I have an underground car park to work in, still don't have the time to play at the moment with work though!

Just catching up here. All looking good mate.

You done anything more with the intercooler yet? I had/have the exact same idea and was thinking of mounting it as close to the engine lid vents as possible with the shortest pipes possible. I really suffer with lag on my current bottom flat mounted (no ideas why   s:? :? s:?  ) setup.

Gearbox identification is by the clutch fork, please also not that an adapter plate is required to fit those boxes

Can you buy these somewhere?

Either your expectations are too high or there is something wrong.
Yours is an SP or TTET isnt it?
Mine pulls from 2500 rpm hits its stride by 3000.
Do you have a boost gauge?

EDIT
Sorry yours is a Hass.
Speaking out of turn again

Not yet bud. It's too cold and miserable out there and the 200sx is out of action. Collecting parts for the MR2 build.  Then I wanna get the 200sx sorted (backup car) then start the mr2 conversion  s;) s;)

What sized turbo are you running?  I was going to run a T28 but going for a T25 now for that very reason! The intercooler shouldn't cause that much lag.

Gt28rs. Should have my intercooler mounted for the weekend!

Thanks for the offer but I already have the pod and just looking for boost and oil as I have an AFR already.

I has a T28R s15 turbo, but recently got a T25 from a 300zx, I think it should be perfect for what I want as in midrange torque. At least for now :p

As for management I have a emanage blue which I used on the 200sx. Just need to get hold of a loom. At the moment I am thinking of making one up myself if it's cheap enough.

[Swan_Connery]

Well if my powerfc mapping goes well I'll have my emb and harness for sale.   s:wink: :wink: s:wink:

What EmB is it?

[Swan_Connery]

emanage blue with both harnesses

[CrazySX]

emanage blue with both harnesses

Is it plug and play for the MR2? I maybe interested pending price and if I can sell mine with my 200sx harness for the same/similar. Let me know when the time comes.

[CrazySX]

Some of my parts  s:D s:D


Also cleaned and conditioned the seats today using gliptone

[jonty]

Twin turbo??!

[CrazySX]

Twin turbo??!

Stop giving me ideas lol! One T28r and one T25  s:) s:)

[CrazySX]

Oil and filter change done today at just over 4k miles since I bought it last April! Trip A tells me how many miles I get at each fill and Trip B was reset when I bought the car and left alone since.

My 2zz injectors came back from SIMTEK today after being cleaned and tested. Here are the results:
 

Money well spent I say! They flow test, then clean then flow yes again and check spray pattern. As can be seen 2 of the injectors were only spraying out if 3 legs!  s:o s:o

Good thing about getting them cleaned is that you get brand new O rings and insulators. These cost just over 20 quid at Mr T so all in all the cleaning only costs 50 quid when you think about it.

Anyway here is a pic of the injectors all built up:


And here is a pic of the old o rings, insulators and filters:


These injectors will go in with the maf mod and a nice HKS induction kit for now. I will most likely use these injectors on the turbo conversion anyway so worth the effort of changing them out.

More pics to follow once I get my finger out my bum and start the work. That is providing it doesn't rain today!!

Ok... so... finger removed from bum!

So I changed the injectors over today. A few tips..

Make sure you remove the cross brace and the cam cover breather. Makes access a lot better.

Ensure you buy one of these:  m http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.vi ... 86&alt=web m  

Before removing the old injectors, make sure u pull the fuel pump fuse and try start the car. This should release the pressure in the rail.

I didn't do this and fuel started  spiss piss spiss ing out as soon as I got the fuel rail bolts loose. Still.. I didn't have much trouble getting the injectors out as they "popped" out lol!

Although not one of the insulators came out with an injector so I had to fish them out with the mirror and a small screwdriver.

When fitting the replacement injectors put a bit of washing up liquid on the insulators and push them in nice with a twisting action.

Then washing up liquid on the O rings and pop the rail back on. You will hear a reassuring noise when it seats good.

Oh and before putting the new injectors in make sure you clean the holes out. I couldn't get a carb cleaner can down there so did this with some hose I had laying around

Then point it towards the holes and shoot! And end up with this:
