This could be the most exciting thread on the forum. :ecstatic:

 

Is it not slightly daunting doing all of this work yourself? Are you a trained mechanic or just very capable unlike myself who's frightened of anything technical :drown: .......although I once tried to fit an induction kit to a 1.25 16v Fiesta. :D

 

Thanks,

i use to have my own workshop for 18 years, sold up 5 years ago. I work on my own cars and for good frinds ;)

nice pics. keep it up its good to see cars in progress pics. you had your injectors flow tested or cleaned?

cant wait to have a go at fitting my kit. you not into blinging up your parts now they off the car?

 

MORE PICS NEEDED :)

 

Hi Mark, No need to test injectors as they are new. While the inlet is off, i suppose i can polish the inlet for a bit of bling, lol.

 

Just seen your set up very nice mate, :thumbs: you doing it your self?

hi ash, i thought it would be best to get the injectors tested from what i have read on this board. i have 2 sets of new injectors 850cc and some 960cc injectors with a phr stage 2+ fuel kit. i have no experience in fitting parts just trying to learn. i will be having a go at fitting it myself as its a learning thing too. not fussed if it takes ages to fit if i do it right.

have fitted a few bits and good when you learn something new.

fitted

blitz fmic

hks boost and egt gauge (cw plumbed in my egt probe)

changed oil once

fitted fuel dampner bypass

fitted oil relocating kit

fitted trl fuel cut

 

the turbo kit just looks bolt on so should hopefully not go too bad. im pretty good at taking things apart ;)

 

i would give it a go now. it makes you feel good when you do stuff yourself.

 

i just like to see work in progress on supras. keep us posted with how it goes :respekt:

I'm sure you know your stuff Ash but a couple of guys on here have found their brand new injectors to be gummed up and partially blocked. Is it worth the risk of not getting them flow tested before fitting? Consider the damage it could do.... :eek:

Nice buildup! :D

 

T51BB is near a 76mm wheel, i think. and with a .96 or 1.00 A/R (IIRC)

Good luck, it will give you a right kick up the backside when it comes in.

Are those gauges in that position permanently or just whist you were sorting them out?. If so, was there nowhere more "suitable" to place them, they seem to look odd stuck on top of the dash IMHO.

 

Not quite permanent, but it seem the only suitable place for them. lol

 

Any suggestions most welcome. :)
