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

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
