dandan Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 Ibrar - she's a real beauty mate, you've done an absolutely smashing job Your torque and power curves are almost identical to mine up to about 5400rpm - and then your's pull away above that. What cams are you using - normal vvtis? You will love the fast spooling, it makes for such a nice easy drive when you want to do the lazy high gear overtakes I guess the vvti is really helping the 91-79 along, doing a similar job to my short runner cast manifold.

Ibrar Jabbar Posted June 17, 2012 Author Share Posted June 17, 2012 (edited) It's been a while since I have updated here all due to a few issues with leaks and wanted to sort them before the car goes on the road. The gearbox had a very minor drip (red line in pic) and the engine oil was dripping (circled red) The gearbox had to come back out. The engine oil leak was diagnosed as some dodgy sealant on the housing and was possibly the main cause of the leak. http://mkivsupra.net/vbb/attachment.php?attachmentid=153554&d=1339966811 http://mkivsupra.net/vbb/attachment.php?attachmentid=153555&d=1339966811 I replaced the rear main seal and re-sealed the housing (sorry forgot to take pics). The gearbox bell housing was removed and also resealed. Big thanks to my mate Paul for helping me out on this one http://mkivsupra.net/vbb/attachment.php?attachmentid=153556&d=1339966811 http://mkivsupra.net/vbb/attachment.php?attachmentid=153557&d=1339966811 I fitted everything back up yesterday and am pleased to say all the leaks are now gone so it's MOT & Tax tomorrow as Ryan is coming up to do the final bit of mapping on Tuesday.

Ibrar Jabbar Posted June 18, 2012 Author Share Posted June 18, 2012 Turned out I didn't need the MOT sorting till the end of July, so I gave all the nuts and bolts a once over and headed off to get the wheels aligned. The drive up there was an interesting one as the car was all over the place as the suspension geo was way out, however on the way back after the alignment was sorted I gave it some beans and let's just say it's very quick, quick enough to break traction in 2nd and 3rd. Ryan is setting up the traction control, anti lag and final bit of mapping tomorrow so looking forward to the results and outcome. The car is booked in at Center Gravity for a full geo setup on the 3rd of July the setup for now is back to stock. http://mkivsupra.net/vbb/attachment.php?attachmentid=153616&d=1340055528 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
