Picked this up on the weekend. It aint legal and it needs a couple of things to get it that way but FUCK ME its fast and loud. Definitely puts the shits up ya when you stomp on the gas.

Anyway specs...

Ex-GT4 3SGTE
Big turbo, forget the specs. From XTR
Wild wild wild lumpy cams
Adj cam gears
Forgies
ARP bolts everywhere
Racepro FMIC
Turbosmart external wastegate
Monza (ugggh) BOV
Supra 5spd with mega short shift
Custom plenum and piping
Link plus (without a fucking hand controller dammit)
R32 Gtst rear subframe w coilovers
Gtst LSD, think its a 4.11
4 stud conversion on rear wheels
Rear mount radiator, apparently to suit 350 chev

Supposed to have 300kw at the flywheel on 13psi. I wouldnt be surprised if that was the case but im gonna throw it back onto a dyno to find out and to make sure its fuelling right. I dont have the money to fix an exploded motor so I dont want it leaning out! Its supposed to be on 13psi now but it keeps going to 18 which is a bad bad thing

Plans are to...

Get it legal. Unfortunately this includes getting it certed for turbo motor and whole back end
Put semi slicks on it
Make brakes work better, they are shit as. Dirty Viva stuff
Put it on the dyno and make sure tuning is where its sposed to be. Will make sure it is tuned for 18psi cos thats as high as I wanna go.
Get a hand controller for the link
Sort out the boost
Tidy up wires in engine bay some more. Already done some
Harnesses, got them there but need to put them in
Paint it or something


It has heaps of power and handles ok but the brakes make it a bit sketchy. Shortish diff means it doesnt get very far past 200ks but I wouldnt really wanna anyway, at only 650kgs it would probably take off.

WTF was I thinking????

Pics to come asap

By the way ive got the standard rebuilt 3SGE and a couple of sidey 45 webers on a 3S manifold if anyone knows what they are gonna be worth to sell?

Motor


Bonnet on


Front mount and shit


Booty


the silver bullet is in 'The Chequered Flag' (a tuning shop in wellys) at the mo cos of a few things. Mainly that it was runnin 22 fucking PSI which isnt that cool. The elec boost controller was there and hooked up to the link but not hooked up to the wastegate which basically means it was a nothing controller. Gettin me a boost switch to go between 10 (wastegate spring) and 18 PSI. Ive got a 38mm Turbosmart wastey on there which has a bung diaphram. New one in tomorrow and then the old bitch goes on the dyno for a low key re-tune for 18psi. Ordered two new tyres for rear as well. $340 bucks a pop they better stick like bear shit to rabbit fur or I will feel ripped.

Fuck this car is gonna cost me my fucking life. Sooooo worth it tho. If you see me on the road wave me down and I take you for a ride - all will become clear

So car was in a mates engineers shop to get new wastegate welded up. 2 parts to this story...

1) Engineers home computer fucked out the day I dropped my car off. Using my IT prowess I fixed that shit for him/hit him up about a discount. Wowow IT prowess

2) Engineer moved my car from one macking shed to another. Being mega lumpy cams and considering the sheds were 5m apart the car never got far past idle and therefore the plugs fouled up. As expected I guess. Anyway engineer couldnt start car cos of oily plugoes, so he cleaned plugs and decided to take it for a boost to clear it all up. During this boost he managed to run an orange (RED?) light and got pulled up. Im a bad cunt cos the persy plates on it arent actually regd to the car and car is FAR from legal. Cops gave him the big fraud spiel about the plates and ended up fining him for the red light run. While this is funny cos I dont have to pay the fine, it also SUCKS cos now there are 2 cops who know the car isnt legal. Now im scared to drive it cos if these particular cops see this car driving around again they will no doubt pull me up due to possible illegality.

Man im drunk, im convinced I posted this shit somewhere else on here but hey. I wish I was cool enough to be on like 100 forums so that any post on here would be all like "ooh that exclusive cunt Spanners devoted his oh-so-prescious time to OS"

But im not. Im OS to the core.

Mainly cos Toyspeed banned my addy/WTF?

I aint toyota anyway Im NZ made represent/Chevron engineering

and PKB

Drunk

Hey I need help. Well thats obvious but seriously. My steering stopped working today while I was driving, lucky I was goin slo.

Anyway anyone know what this steering universal joint is off? I need to get one asap

[spanners]

Ok a million bucks later my car steers again. Took for drive, got half way to servo and ran outa gas. SHAME. Thegreatestben made me feel better by arriving at the servo and dishing out some mad props. Much lubs TGB

Just gotta sort the fucking boost controller, it doesnt know its hand from its asshole. Trying to send 30psi up in there. Mad clutch fry at 180ks...

finally got a chance to give it some stick on a nice cold night. Got 210ks without any splutter or shit when boost controller was turned off (about 14psi) so its running a shitload better than it has been...

[spanners]

Wow... nearly 2 years later I decide to put something on here...


Chevron going fo a blast. Kinda sucks cos the orig vid was way better quality in the nighttime parts but you get the idea

Selling this car, will swap for a KP starlet 20v with cash my way and a reach-around
