juliette do you ever look at an FJ40 and feel unoriginal?

BAZINGA!

Damn, LTHLRB's MK3 golf has got the same size engine as mine (2L SOHC), cept mine's got full EFI, leather seats, cruise control, is 7 years newer and cost me $600 less.

Smart move would be to sell the golf for mad profits instead of modding it, instead of spending twice what I paid for it in mods.

What kind of power numbers would I roughly be expecting with the following mods?

full exhaust with aftermarket dumps / high flow (decat)

pods / CAI / box

cam gears / cams (tomei?)

-5s

new fuel pump / injectors / 98 ron

power fc / status tune

would i need a new cooler as well?

oh and also spitfire coilpacks

just looking for rough number to know if i need to put more on my shopping list which is slowly getting ordered :)

Useless with dash 5 without a rebuild because you will blow the engine sky high. And if you want like 300kw you will have lag upto 4500rpm. With a proper engine you should get in the vicinity of 380awkw

1. do you have a job?

2. if no, do not pass go, do not collect $200, do not purchase mods for your car.

not at the moment Shan, but already got half the things in my closet and obviously not getting work done till i get a job / finish list off.

And yeh Kris dont mind a bit of lag, once your out of first / hard launch all good anyways :P figured cams will help out a bit as well

lol @ sam trying to convince someone that an auto to manual conversion on a GTS4 isn't that expensive.

you only need to change the front and rear diffs so the ratios match the box, and the only manual AWD boxes you can get came on manual GTS4s and GTRs, which are both way more expensive than a GTSt box.

yup, definitely a cheap job.

totally.

lmao, my mates cousin offered me a kia rio + 1k

    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
