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

    • I thought it could be an issue because the standard plate was flexing when stressed. Maybe the original gear set will hold a bit better without flex? Last time on the dyno it made around 670nm at the hubs. Now it have bigger turbo and better intake but have not been on a dyno yet. The car is being used from family trips to drag race events. So the shifts can be a little violent. It is grinding if I shift to fast so was thinking I should overhaul it soon.
    • From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.
    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?

    • Mark's a bit smarter than people give him credit... He'd convince the person that is to become dead, to drive him to the forest first. That way his car has no evidence in it, and he's free to dispose of their vehicle permanently how he sees fit too...
