Gear shift times should be around 200ms with the paddles. Yes mate, the Syvecs ECU has Launch Control built in. Thanks mate!

Thanks mate, Ryan from Syvecs will be mapping it. My dad did think about converting to Manual, but it's a bit of a pigs ear of a job, and the 6 speed Getrag boxes aren't cheap, you have to cut the transmission tunnel as it's an auto and didn't really want to do that, when we heard the flappy...

@drjekyll reminded me about this thread as I totally had forgot! The supra is not far from being done. Due to the car being 20 years old he decided to buy brand new wire and plugs from the states (as you can't buy a new complete loom from toyota anymore) to make a whole new engine loom as the...

You're photos look really good mate, it was a decent morning, mine was parked up in the paddock under one of the shelters, had a couple of EP3's parked near mine, and one behind me on the way in to Goodwood.

I'm heading to this too aswell, got track parking as well I'll be in my Megane.

Welcome mate, I'm local too I'm in Benfleet as well, I'll have to keep an eye out for you.

Thanks a for the comments guys. Haven't got any photos yet but weekend just gone, most of The interior went back in, This was all boot area complete, rear quarters, Front doorcards, dashboard and centre console, all the interior has been covered in real leather with an orange stiched edge so...

Thanks guys! Was an awesome place! Haha, was in Florida anyway with Friends so it made sense to pop by and pick parts up, had a struggle getting it all in my suitcase for the way back though :-S! I work for a local Council and my dad owns his own engineering company.

Went to Florida again recently to pick up some more engine parts for my Dad from Titan Motorsport as it's a lot cheaper to get them out there than over here. Picked up an 4 piece pulley set, aluminium spark plug cover amongst other things Also whilst I was there I was offered the chance of a...

May be able to make this one

Yes mate, that's the one I've seen too.

I've seen this same car a few times aswell on my way to and from work going to and from Chelmsford.

Here's a few recent photos of the Turbos mocked up on the engine.

Few more bits done on the car recently, Cylinder head and head gasket fitted and torqued down. After that the Camshafts have been installed and torqued down. Also Titan Motorsport anodized cam pulleys fitted. Also just finished mocking up the exhaust manifolds to the cylinder head. Next job is...

Update Few more bits have progressed with the build since the last update. The Hot Sides of both Turbo's have come back from Camcoat and have been coated, unfortunelty haven't got a photo of these at the moment. The Veilside Plenum is currently in the process of being Polished up this is a...

Yeah they're in Warrington looking on their site! Cheers mate, yeah we are really happy with the KW's, they seem like a very nice piece of kit and very easy to fit. Hopefully a few more updates this evening/over the weekend!

Update Managed to get a little bit more time at the weekend just gone to get a few more bits done on the car. This weekend was mainly Coil overs being fitted, overall it went pretty easily apart from having to drill/file out the standard top mounts as they had a "flat" inside meaning the KW...

Hi mate, yeah we will be getting a different hi-stall converter, were deciding either between a 3200rpm or 3800rpm one, haven't decided on which, I'm going to Florida again in August so he might buy a stall converter From Titan Motorsports in Orlando, meaning I can pick it up for him whilst...

Haha thanks mate! Yeah we are still using the stock autobox, however it's going to SRD to have their stage 4 uprated internals installed to withstand the Bhp/torque and also having fitted SRD/Syvecs flappy paddle system installed, so can change gear using paddles behind the steering wheel.

Thanks mate. Haha! it's not the quickest of jobs! but i'm sure it will start to come together soon, next job is continue with the engine & then fit the Coilovers. Thanks, all the Rods are done up to 47ft/lb, in the most recent post I couldn't be arsed to type out the range of "45-50 ft/lb" so...

Thankyou mate, it's mainly my dad with all the knowledge and know-how! I know the basics but I'm learning a lot as we go along.

Thanks Guys! Thanks Mark! We can't wait until it's complete and see what it's like that for sure. Haha I hadn't thought of that! I think this coming Saturday is a CS meet so I will see if I can make it, however i'm not sure yet! Update Well as it's Bank Holiday we managed to get some more...

Update Over the last few days and also today we have managed to get more done on the engine. The remaining 5 Pistons & Rods were fitted in the engine, and the same procedure was taken of measuring each Conrod bolt for future reference, plastiguaging the ACL bearings and then fitting the Conrod...

I had this same problem when I had my Clio, all lights/radio/lock/unlock worked but it wouldn't turn over at all. MickPM trader on here told me to look at the white wire which goes to the starter motor solenoid as it may have corroded, that's what happened on mine, new wire/connector later it...

Cheers both of you! On another note, the KW V3 Coilovers have now turned up from America (worked out cheaper) than getting them in the UK. So these will be fitted soon! Will get some pictures, when I am round my Dads next.

Thanks mate Thanks! Me neither! Shall be great

We got a little bit more done on the Car yesterday, my dads back from Mexico so we started on it again. Today was to fit the pistons & conrods into the block and connect to the crank. Started off by measuring the conrod bolt length so we know if we ever take them out again if they have...
