BASHTHEBISHOP Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 Nice. I am not keen on the rear wing but its a very nice spec sup you got there. Hi & Welcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n boost Posted July 18, 2007 Author Share Posted July 18, 2007 thanks everybody, feel right at home now. Yeh the rear wing is a bit like marmite. I like it because its individual. Its got loads of other mods, fidanza flywheel,Helix clutch, rebuilt g/box, Diff etc. Rob, emails were sent by accident, sorry mate (long story).

Jake Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 Nice car apart from the spoiler. The plate looks familiar, was the prevous owner a member on here? Only 477 ft-lbs torque? Shouldn't it be more with that turbo? Was it dyno'd at Thor Racing by any chance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n boost Posted July 18, 2007 Author Share Posted July 18, 2007 Hello mate. I am the first owner and bought the plate myself. It was dyno'd/mapped at P J mptorsport. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 I see. I'm sure I've seen a plate very like that on a Supra on here. Kudos to you for mapping it yourself matey. Do you have previous experience mapping cars? It's all a bit of a mystery to me TBH. Hopefully the new cams will garner you some extra torque but 470odd isn't to be sniffed at. Anyway, best of luck with it mate. Keep us posted of your progress, won't you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 Congrats for doing the work yourself. Another single turbo DIYer here Though I did get someone else in to map it, standalones are way beyond me! Have you used an XS power kit on the manifold and oil feed/returns? The only reason I ask is we've had some recent issues mentioned here with *some* XS kit, particularly the quality control of their manifold - some appear to have a VERY badly designed pipe to the wastegate, so just be sure to watch for that. Also, if that was dyno'd on Thor's hub dyno (which pretty much everyone agreed is measuring FW, not hub power), then the power seems a bit on the low side. What boost pressure was that taken at? Edit - bah too slow, ignore the last paragraph. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 I see. I'm sure I've seen a plate very like that on a Supra on here. Rob Oldham? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 THAT'S THE FELLA! R 800OST wasn't it? (Before he rolled the car and wrote it off) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 Must be that Rob sold his plate (i'll check with him). That car was proper scrap though, I can't imagine it the same car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 I'm pretty sure Rob has got R 800OST on his current Supe. Same colour VVTi Tip IIRC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n boost Posted July 18, 2007 Author Share Posted July 18, 2007 hi guys. I have owned mainly Nissans as this my first Toyota. Done plenty of nissans(s14,s13, r32, pulsars) for friends and locals and am known locally. As this im my first toyota its bit of a learning curve but am getting there, slowly but surely. Always used E manage as all friends cars are mainly road cars and is pretty cheap. Homer mate, I did use the xs power manifold and wastegate and yes i do have an overboosting problem. I will be taking the manilfold of soon and try grinding the welds and maybe modify the dump pipe. I have already pulled the wastegate of to grease up the shaft etc. You get what u pay for , can't turn back time would not have bought it. Dyno figures were at hubs @ 1.35 bar.
