Ok bros, here's what I've done so far.. Diagnostics with M-Speed Ah Meng said "Wah, manyak teruk la.. pi tukar tire cepat dan buat alignment" "Nanti balik sini bawak I pigi makan lunch" Quick-Safe USJ --- Changed 2 front tires (205/50R16) Tyre balancing F/R Alignment F/R Camber Adjustment Camber Kit L/R Tyre Rotation Car collected at 3pm today and immediately sent it to another foremen in Old Klang Road. Sunny Motorsports --- Timing Belt Oil Seal Removal of gearbox for leakage repair Oil Sum leakage repair Lower arm and bush Drive shaft 7000 semi synthetic oil change Oil Filter Car to be ready in 2 days. Fingers crossed. Lets see how it all goes I told my wife we'll eat leftovers for 2 days. She has absolutely no idea why. Haha
good enuf to play ma....seems to be set up liao. Change to a new sets of rubber and good to go. come PNDC la.
The first what the heck loks like HKS blow off valve, relieves boost pressure on gear changes and makes that lovely pssshp sound 2nd is adjustable fuel pressure regulator with gauge. But a great find, fun for sho.
Looks like great stuff...seems like the supercharger was removed and a turbine was put in place. But it may take some quite a bit of $$$ to put everything proper in place. IT will be damn blardy fun for sure!!! This is a killa!! Enjoy!
Zoggee.. will do when time permits it.. are the longkangs atleast 500m apart ah? Me budak baru belajar, don't wanna drift all the way to the wall.. keke Nemesis.. thanks.. yeah man, that pssshhh is heavenly Fun, it definitely is.. AL.. yeah yeah! I think the mech said something about the atuanator/atuator/alternator (something like that) not being there anymore.. so apparently no supercharger but straight turbo charged. Hmm..
Damn, Strat....I am soooo feeling this car right now!! I kinda want a weekend project now I wanted a 1st gen Miata to do up for auto-x for a long time but got distracted after I got my E90, but you've reminded me all over again
Or build your own car (caterham replica) with Miata parts... I got a book on that... Book title : How To Build a Cheap Sports Car by Keith Tanner
Thanks for the tip...but this self-proclaimed DIY adverse individual doesn't trust himself with heavy machinery and tools Seriously, it'd be awesome to build a caterham kit car, but it won't be cheap. I can get a 1991-1993 Miata sub $8k here and I reckon with $5k or less, I can make an enjoyable lightweight weekend auto-x car. A caterham kit car would end up costing mid-30's. Might as well get a used E36 M3 for that money.
FINALLY! After 5 days of trying to log in to Photobucket! Anyway, the project car's almost ready for some action. All there's left to do is to get a drive shaft and to shower it with good paint. Be careful y'all.. New sets of 2nd hand wheels The new cockpit.. added steering and chrome pedals
A cleaner engine bay with minor oil leaks. Anyone knows where I can get the rusted piping attached to the turbo changed to stainless steel ah? The new HKS mushroom. Yellow.. damn lala.. The manual boost controller I was told? Sets it to 1.1 bar.. TEIN adjustables.. so frikking hard I could feel pebbles running under my tires!
Go to AH (Ah Heng) Exhaust at USJ. Near Texchem industrial area. Should be a quick job, provided he is free. What turbine is that?? Is it a TD04L?
AL.. thanks.. Got contact number ka? This along that longggg stretch where Summit is right? Yeah, I was told this is a TD04L but modified and now has a much bigger intake. Something like that.. loads of fun Zog, yeah man.. Long Live ToyoUDM.. kekeke..
019-2533314. Ask for Akup, he is the right hand man of Ah Heng. Good guy, treat him well and he will take good care of you
Contact taken.. thank you.. Anyways, some latest updates RSImpressive - Turbo Lim Dyno Chart.. Toyota Corolla 1.6 4AGE / Bolt on TD04L Turbo Max Power - 265BHP Max Torque (at 5000RPM) - 303Nm According to him, IF I spend another RM4k to tune up and some servicing the turbo.. it'll easily go way pass 300 ponies Something I'm not ready to do until the entire suspension, drive shaft, lower arm and brake system has been improved By the way, its got an LSD gearbox
Bro, 265hp is about the maximum for a TD04L. Anything more, the turbine will be stressed at the higher end of the spectrum. IN fact I swapped out my TD04L to a TD04HL. Anyway for a FWD, 265 is more than enough Enjoy!
Srat.. whats the use of all those bhp on the tranverse engine when you haven't learn to drive it. PNDC..???
Yeap.. 265 seems to be more than enough.. for the moment.. Zoggee sok-sok.. will you be giving me private lessons if I came around PNDC? HPC.. must sign up and bring your own car wan ah?
