  1. if i get cams i want the lope to be fair im sure with 280 i wont see any better performance than 272, but if the cost is no different id rather go for 280.
  2. have you made any progress getting one of these made? here are a few examples of headlight intakes, i hope the owners dont mind me pinching the photos
  3. just seen your comment thanks dude. i took my pod out and my dad dropped it... so now have a massive crack in it! winter project will be to modify it further and make a pod like no other!! you've got me ordering new bolts for mine now lol want that clean look, i am copying your style hope you dont mind
  4. you dont want mine mate, ones got a friggin great hole in it
  5. if you own an NA and your going TT your going to hit 2 problems if u want massive upgrades. first being gearbox limitations, second being TT engine will hit 400bhp and without costly twins or going single you won't see much more. going single on a TT ££££££££££££ the cost to put a TT lump in, then go single to get 500+bhp will be more than going NA-T, lowering compression and required modifications to hit 500bhp. the only benifit in my eyes is going to be the reliability, but then NA-T's have been pushed to higher levels with no issues when done correctly. right set up, right tune, right modifications, no problem. going 500+ it wont matter what engine you use, as your want the best tuners around. this is of course with a shiney new R154 or 6speed as your w58 will wet itself at those levels
  6. Ok make sense. So if keep the lift low but have a slightly longer duration. Say, 9.9mm lift and 300 duration, this would probably just run as well as 280 duration but choke the chamber more at low RPM, and without a seriously high RPM rev range I wouldnt see any improvement?
  7. maybe u are also not cool enough for these?
  8. the cams will be installed after my turbo is fitted. id like to increase the rpm slightly but starting power at 7k would mean without a limit to 8k it would be pointless?
  9. u dont need headlights in the day you just need signals. ive driven on the link road and been slowly overtaken by police with headlights missing. they even waved!! i used a hair dryer on rear lights. trust me, its a PITA, use oven at 80°C. if it doesnt work, cook it for longer, ScottM knows his stuff.
  10. i say keep it. people are just worried you will be cooler than they are mate
  11. how do you think this would this perform on a standard NA, i assume such a high duration would cause the chamber to starve at low RPM (going on your document i read)
  12. Hi guys, had a `rough` quote for a parcel max weight 25kg to ship to the US and was quoted 350!! i can get a gearbox shipped from the US back for that. Anyone know of any decent international couriers?

    LED rear lights?

    nice TRD wide ass with clear reverse looks sweeeet!
  14. what about some 312's? 10.4mm lift?
  15. probably not far higher than stock rpm. stock is 6.8, so probably 7.2 and leave it there as the bhp increase wouldnt be worth the wear and tear on components i will be running.
  16. this will also mean more wear i assume? would anything else need to be upgraded to run say 10.3mm lift than springs and retainers?
  17. why not for street use? how is this going to affect the drivability. also can someone PLEASE answer my question: same duration with different amounts of lift, how does lift affect performance?

    Solar Panels

    just get a bigger alternator, problem sorted. Solar panels on any form of vehicle is better for trickle charge, like a boat. Unless your hybrid your not going to see the benifits IMO. Unless you feed in the solar panels to replace your alternator and reduce resistance on your engine.... I don't think the extra power required from your engine to turn the alternator uses enough fuel to make solar panels on your car cost effective. I could be wrong

    Solar Panels

    those mini hair straightners that work through the cig lighter seriously drain your battery bro
  23. i think ive just won the award for most posts on a thread not actually answering the question lol i read somewhere that 10.97mm is the most a 2JZ would want to be taken to, how would a 280 duration 9.9mm act differently to a 280 10.97mm ?
