rob wild Posted January 13, 2010 Author Share Posted January 13, 2010 Oh ouch, do you know what the issue was or is it an unknown? TR racing felt that it was running to much boost for fuel ramping the EGT's up and melting number 5 piston. The car was still running but when inspected it because clear that the map was wrong. I think it had been used with race fuel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rob wild Posted January 13, 2010 Author Share Posted January 13, 2010 (edited) OK so it deff needs a rebuild then. Non runner at the minute then? Yeah Defo need a rebuild. But basically the new parts needed are Block, Pistons, gasket set. The car is already stripped so should'nt take to long to but back together Edited January 13, 2010 by rob wild (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdzC Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Wow Rob. After our chat at the Trafford Centre last time I got the impression you'd never sell the Supra. Awesome machine you have there. Out of curiosity was that video of the GTR taken by LEP in Preston? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob wild Posted January 14, 2010 Author Share Posted January 14, 2010 yep im in i take it it will be same place we all met last time Yep sounds good Very nice mate . What happened to the wheels and front bumper of this ?, does it still have the side exit exhaust ?. The wheel and bumper were changed a year ago, not sure why other than to improve handling (well the wheels anyway) Some monster there Rob! Who will be doing the build work for you? Any Skyline specialists up our way? There is a brilliant specialist about 5 mins from my house but they are busy at the moment. However for general stuff once I get the car back thats were I will be going! Wow Rob. After our chat at the Trafford Centre last time I got the impression you'd never sell the Supra. Awesome machine you have there. Out of curiosity was that video of the GTR taken by LEP in Preston? LOL I'm very random TBH mate I just didn't want to sell the soop and not replace it with nothing (what the wife wants). I knew that I would upgrade one day but the other day I just thought sod it lets have something different! I will get another soop one day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
