    crank pulley

    GTE and GE cranks have the same part number so they should do mate.
  2. Some good progress there mate, will be an awesome machine when finished.
  3. I guess it's about time I updated this...... The spare long block and big box of goodies I had for the 3.4 conversion is in the good hands of Lee at SRD now and will be built up over the following months. Taking a little trip up there yesterday and having a chat about everything I feel there is no one else better for the job and am very pleased it's being done by them I know Lee will be kind enough to grab some pictures of progress so I will update as each step goes. That's all for now until I get an update

    **New** SRD Oil Cap

    Very nice Lee! I might get one if I can sell the trd one I've got.
  5. It had the back box on but it sounded bloody brilliant on tick over, I think I'm gunno go for some 280s myself
  6. I saw this today Luc I must say it sounds awesome in person! As above what you having done?
  7. Yep UK auto has the big diff same as mine as I was looking into swapping mine for a UK 6 speed diff once.
  8. That is a massive help Scott thanks, I shall try that out tomorrow now you explain it like that makes perfect sense.
  9. That's what I was thinking but most of the setups I see have them mounted in the metal, I think the best option at the moment will be to replace the sensor as im pretty sure it's getting an incorrect reading somehow. Even after a short drive off boost completely last night it went to 65 after 25 minutes at a constant 40mph.
  10. I have my fronts on 16 and the rears at the softest possible setting, I always thought softer shocks were better for launching but I find my traction terrible, maybe I should try them in the middle and see if that makes it better.
  11. I'm pretty sure it's Celsius mate as with the rest of the gauges. Im not sure how the sensors work as the prob is attached to the threaded part, is this suppose to be separated by ptfe tape from the pipework?
  12. Was nice to speak to you at the event mate the car looked awesome as always and I got some nice videos of it too, good job
  13. Update: I have put a new shroud on but have seen no difference to ACT or coolant temp whatsoever. The next thing to try is a new sensor as I feel this one may be getting its reading from the actual pipework.
  14. Must be good, it can handle 1000++hps and 45psi project with no broken.
  15. Looks awful to me, look up VIS racing GT widebody kit it looks similar but I think the one above has been modded.
  16. I'm certainly not making the most out of the turbo that's for sure. The thing is the exit of the intercooler is very near cold I wouldn't even say warm, but the pipe just before the throttle body is near hot and that's where the sensor is. Is there a way I can install it to make sure the probe definitely is not measuring the pipe temp?
  17. Even on a hot day driving at a constant 70mph it shows a minimum of 60 degrees. When stopped in traffic or cruising at 40 its around the 70 mark.
  18. Ahh just the kind response I was hoping! Thanks Chris i'll bond a piece of perspex over the holes and seal it up should work ok. Do you recommend I try and eliminate as many silicone joiners as possible as I have a length about 10" right behind the radiator, will this absorb more heat than a one piece aluminium pipe?
  19. Just received a fan shroud from Ashbuster thanks mate Now this one has 2 small auxiliary fans but my car only has one electrical connector. Can I hook up both fans to one wire or shall I remove both auxiliary fans and block the holes as I have no aircon if this is what there for? Also is there any where in the stock intake manifold to mount the ACT sensor or shall I keep it in the intercooler pipe just in front of the throttle body?
  20. Well done Graham! I know you've been looking for some glass lights for ages now and what a difference mate, so much better than plastic lenses.
  21. If anyones interested in my facelift headlights for sale I can do them for £300 and bring them with me if I come to this.
