  1. I just wanked into my hand and threw it at dog shit, still looks better than that....
  2. It's called a Do Luck rear wing i think.... http://www.speedhunters.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/06/MG_7872_copy2.jpg
  3. Lovely brake setup there mate, next on my list!
  4. A lot of these boxes with straight cut gears and most of the sequential boxes require rebuilds every X hours, they don't last for months and months.
  5. I have, i ran these ones with my lightened flywheel: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/290969414975?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649

  8. Hi guys! Last update from me on this, its now finished! Will chuck a few updates on after fitting etc. Got my injectors back from flow testing, needed a new one as the atomization was not great. Numbered all the injectors and fitted them to the rail. Fitted to the lower inlet Removed the tape, you can see the port job on the lower runner Got my covers back from being bling’ed! Drilled and tapped to 1/2NPT then fitted the 10AN adapters And fitted! Inlet manifold fitted New polished water neck vs the old one… Fitted that Dipstick tube and inlet support painted and fitted Shaved the tensioner Fitted that on I am going with an aftermarket oil cooler, I didn’t want to run the stock one again as I was worried about loading the water system with heat. New bolt adapter from garage whifbitz Oil setup fitted Loom on and alt fitted! Its all done! Thanks for reading guys, next update in a week or so!
  9. Hi Mr Swamp Send this chap an email: http://1jzmerc.com/hks-faq/hardware/f-con-v-pro-gold
  10. Could be both to be honest. Could be the fact the fittings at the wrong angle and has worn off the anodization where there has been pressure on it and has led to corrosion. Who's fitting is it btw? Earl's, Genuine Aeroquip? Shouldn't happen with a quality fitting.
  11. Fitting has been at the incorrect angle and has fatigued. Make sure you calculate the correct angle when you fit it.
  12. This, mines got a aluminium flywheel and twin plate clutch and sounds like a bag of spanners at idle...
  13. I blocked the one in my cylinder head by removing the stainless pipe, as its just epoxyed in, Then drilling and tapping the hole. I then used thread lock and a copper washer
  14. Where's the water feed your trying to block?
  15. Sam from TDI South with out a doubt. He maps race cars for Lemans etc and I really trust him. Plus the dyno setup is like nothing I have ever seen anywhere before. Also thinking of taking it there to be run in, they have designed a dyno run in program that they have used over a decade with no failures so far... Only thing I am considering is switching ECU's. Depending on what I can get for mine that is.
  16. Hi mate, no just use a pair of mole grips and twist it out, its only glued in place. Thanks mate, I did think about it but I read a post by Chris Wilson saying you need a very good reason to step away from the stock one so I stuck with it....

  20. Right guys big update! Been bit busy so struggling but nearly there now. So unpacked my new oil pump and fitted the new seal: Masked up and painted Swapping parts over from the old. Nice and clean! To prevent startup wear I packed the pump with assembly lube. Should keep it all good till it fires.

  21. Any outcome of your previous thread? http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?275077-Misfiring-buffeting/page3 I would take it to Chris Wilson and see what he says. Before you are looking for a new engine!
  22. You might not be able to see the det, the edge of the top ring is the edge of the camber so you may have damage there. Mine looked ok from the top but the det had eaten the ringlands away
