Andrew K Posted August 24, 2015 Author Share Posted August 24, 2015 The nice newly repaired Turbo is now fitted to the manifold and the pipe work is now all finished and routed neatly down to the intercooler, also had the mounting flange welded on for the HKS dump valve and is now all fitted next job is the down pipe & mid pipe.

Andrew K Posted August 25, 2015 Author Share Posted August 25, 2015 (edited) Looks like Lee & the guys have been very busy Lee sent me over this video clip earlier of the first start up of my engine install, there are a few teething issues to get sorted but nothing major, one of which is the v band on the turbo is blowing as you might hear from the clip. Lee said there were no leaks at all on start up and it started on the button on his base map and all sensors on the syvecs are working fine. Been having a play around to see if I can get my YouTube video clips up the way you see most people do it, think I've finally figured it out. better than just having a link!

Frank Bullitt Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 (edited) trying to get this clip up like you see others but can`t figure out how to do it hope the link works! Here you go E2A When you start a new post there is a film/movie clip picture in the same bar as the "font" & "size" et cetera, cut the whole youtube link from the address bar and paste it in there.

Cheers mate, I was trying for ages last night to get the YouTube clip up like you've just done for me. I'm sure I tried that and put the hole YouTube link from the address bar into that film / movie clip picture that your on about and it just came out the same as my attempt last night! Will have to have a play around with it some more and see how I get on, was the first time I've ever uploaded a clip to YouTube and tried getting it onto the forum.

James (Srd) (Ps, its going to sound awesome ) Thank you for the nice comment James, I am a bit fussy when it comes to doing things on the supra and always give it my full attention to get things looking as good as they can. A big Thanks goes to you guys at SRD as you've done an outstanding job as always fitting all the parts and putting your touch on it I've been collecting parts and doing what I have to get things ready for quite a few years now and never thought I'd see the day this lot would be in my car! Still seems a bit unreal but it's finally there. Sounds nice then That's good to hear as I was hoping it might. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew K Posted September 3, 2015 Author Share Posted September 3, 2015 Getting used to posting my videos from YouTube to the forum now Just before Lee went on his holiday he sent me another short video clip of my supra, the comment he left was :- Your car sounds awesome.

Andrew K Posted September 22, 2015 Author Share Posted September 22, 2015 Had a progress report & some pictures from Lee over the weekend the Cal switch has now been installed, was toying with a few different ideas of where to fit it but in the end it was put in the centre console arm rest. i know the foam insert i made myself for the ipod doesn`t look to brilliant but i will be addressing that when i get the car back, want to make it more solid / presentable and wrap it in a vinyl so it matches the dash texture.

Andrew K Posted September 22, 2015 Author Share Posted September 22, 2015 Lee said they are pretty much there with the car now just needs some road mapping and checking then it`s off for a dyno session. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew K Posted October 8, 2015 Author Share Posted October 8, 2015 Had another update from Lee while they were out doing some road mapping Lee noticed that the front wheels are rubbing in the arches a bit, i had new Tein coilovers fitted quite a few years back now and as my supra was an N/A the front springs needed changing so to get the car sitting right, now with the heavier engine the original springs need to go back on (luckily i kept them) which Lee and the Team have been sorting out and while the shocks were off the car the Green paint work was looking a bit sorry for it`s self! so they gave them a rub / clean down and freshened them up with a coat of paint.

Andrew K Posted October 8, 2015 Author Share Posted October 8, 2015 Also while i was having a chat with Lee he told me the cars going in for it`s mapping session on the rolling road tomorrow so going to be a big day and can`t wait for the updates and video`s to start coming through and to see how the car performs plus what figures it produces.
