Hello James nice rolla you have there like the big intercooler :abuse:

 

Any more pics?

 

How much did the conversion cost :jamie: roughly

hey thanks,

 

yeah i got more pics, il put em up now...

 

if i knew exactly how much this car cost me i probably wouldnt be telling many people...

 

its a lot, honestly i don't know...too much

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

he he sorry, i went a little crazy with the pics,

 

the newest ones are the dark ones taken at night, i havnt cleaned and tidied it up yet but it still looks pretty good,

 

thanks

James

Nice engine bay :jamie: love the pipework very neat!!!

What tail lights are they ?different from myne

KE55 Tail lights...

thanks guys,

 

yep ke55 tail lights,

 

turbo is a GT28RS,

 

thanks

James

Ok cool ,what sort of hp figures are u getting or looking for :jamie:

well, at first i want to get around the 150kw mark with standard ecu @1 BAR,

 

after i get new ecu (Haltch), finish exhaust off, 3'' turbo back,

 

once i get those things sorted out I'l also be running around the 20psi mark, perhaps a little more, depending on how good the tuner is,

 

hopefully gettin towards 190rwkw,

 

then i got a few other things in mind, and I'l prob and up rebuilding with a few extra goodies

 

I'l be looking to crack 200rwkw, even that much is pushing the limits of a 1 tonne vehicle on street tyres...

 

so yeah, thats pretty much my plans, oh and better brake upgrade and hopefully coilovers on the front...etc etc

 

Thanks

James

sweet :jamie: looks like you have some work to do and some money to spend lol

good luck nice rolla

yeah thanks,

 

lotsa work to come.. :jamie:

 

Thanks

James

Heh, sounds familiar :jamie: Welcome to Rollaclub, by the way.

 

Hey, you've got the same catch can as me :abuse:

I hope you spent some serious money on internals if you want 200KW at the rears.

 

well yeah, i don't expect that yet, but after the rebuild like i said,

 

yes il be spending quite a bit on evrything!!!

I suppose as Rob says, "If it's worth doing, it's worth doing properly" :jamie:

 

4A bottom ends tend to be pretty darn strong anyway...

yeah i know this,

 

but this power figure is quite achievable with the 4AGTE,

 

it has been proven quite a few times, even with stock 4agze engine, power figures are being achieved quite close to the 200rwkw mark,

 

in some cases this is on an UNOPENED engine!!!

 

i have personally witnessed a 4AGTE sprinter making 200rwkw, doing 11.5 1/4 mile passes on the stock engine, the owner of this particular car recently made 270rwkw after a rebuild, and he will also be tuning mine after he installs the new ecu.

 

so yeah, although it does sound unbelievable it is a tried and proven engine that can make decent amount of power,

 

thanks

James

this guy from denmark claims he have a 450hp 4agte, but I don't think that rwhp..

450hp 4agte

They are late late KE55 tail lights along with that rear bar...and the square headlights...they also have this spastic piece of metal to bridge the gap between the rediculously spaced out bumper bars and the car. I made one of these into a KE30...I much prefer the 30 stuff, but the late model KE55's had some cool bits in them so it's good to use that body then put 30 bumpers and bonnet

 

By the way...My car wants to look like that when it grows up too sob
