glenpos Posted October 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 FITTED WITH A 4AGZE BIGPORT TWIN CAM 16V SUPERCHARGED & INTERCOOLED ENGINE, THIS CAR WAS REGISTERED WITH THIS SETUP, BUT HAD SAT UNUSED FOR A LONG TIME WHEN I BOUGHT IT, SO I PULLED THE MOTOR APART, PUT NEW RINGS AND BIG END BEARINGS IN, HONED IT, HAD THE HEAD SHAVED 10 THOU, FITTED ALL NEW BRASS WELCH PLUGS, CLEANED UP THE PORTS IN THE HEAD AND PORT MATCHED THE MANIFOLDS COMPLETELY CLEANED AND RESPRAYED THE ENGINE BLOCK, NEW OIL & FILTER ETC ETC SUPERCHARGER HAS STANDARD PULLEY SO IT HASN'T BEEN BOOSTED UP, SINCE I DID ALL OF THAT TO THE ENGINE, I HAVE ONLY DONE 40 LAPS OF WINTON SINCE REBUILD, AS THIS WAS MY FIRST TRACK CAR, WITH A BEST LAP OF 1.56, THERE'S LOTS OF POTENTIAL LEFT, SOME STICKIER TYRES & MAYBE A BETTER CLUTCH & CAR SHOULD BE GOOD FOR AROUND 1.50'S OR BETTER.. FROM THE FIRST TIME I STARTED THE ENGINE IT HAS HAD A RATTLE, I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS, IT SOUNDS LIKE A VALVE ETC, BUT I'VE TAKEN THE TOP OF THE ENGINE BACK OFF TO CHECK EVERYTHING & ONLY THING I CAN FIND IS A SLOPPY DISTRIBUTOR DRIVE GEAR WHERE IT GOES ONTO THE CAM, IT HASN'T GOTTEN ANY WORSE SINCE THE FIRST TIME I STARTED IT, IT COULD BE SOMETHING ELSE BUT I'M NOT REALLY SURE, IT STILL RUNS FINE & PULLS HARD TO 7000 RPM WITH NO PROBLEMS & ENGINE SOUNDS FINE UNDER LOAD, HAS A SPORTS EXHAUST WITH THREE HOT DOGS FITTED, IT HAS A FRONT MOUNT INTERCOOLER DUMMY FITTED WITH PVC PIPE BUT DOES RUN FINE LIKE THIS, HAS K&N POD FILTER, THERMO FAN,AND IT RUNS A VL FUEL PUMP. IT HAS A JDM T SERIES DISC BRAKE DIFF WITH A WELDED CENTRE, ITS A T50 5 SPEED, ITS NOT NOISY AND CHANGES WELL, I NOTICED LAST RACE THAT WHEN I CHANGED GEARS THE CLUTCH WAS SLOW TO GRIP SO IT WILL PROB NEED A NEW CLUTCH SOON. THE CAR SITS ON 15" X 7" WORK E WING2 3 PIECE WHEELS WITH 205/50R15 TYRES, THE FRONTS HAVE ABOUT 60% TREAD AND THE REARS HAVE ABOUT 40% TREAD AND HAVE DONE 40 LAPS AT WINTON, THE TYRES ARE A LITTLE BIT OLD AND HARD AND HAVE SOME CRACKING ON THEM, ONE TYRE HAS A SLOW LEAK & GOES FLAT AFTER A DAY. THE CAR HAS KONI ADJUSTABE SHORT STROKE REAR SHOCKS, PEDDERS REAR SWAY BAR & LOWERED SPRINGS AND IT HAS STANDARD FRONT STRUTS THAT HAVE BEEN MODIFIED WITH A CUSTOM RETAINER TO KEEP THE CUT PEDDERS LOWERED SPRINGS IN PLACE. I STARTED TO TIDY UP THE BODY BUT RAN OUT OF TIME TO FINISH IT BEFORE MY FIRST RACE, SO I JUST SPRAYED OVER THE REPAIRS, IT HAS FLARED REAR WHEEL ARCHES, THE PAINT ISN'T GREAT BUT THE CAR STILL LOOKS AWESOME, IT HAS A LITTLE BIT OF RUST BUT WOULDN'T TAKE MUCH TO REPAIR, IT DOES HAVE SOME DENTS BUT NOTHING BIG AS CAN BE SEEN IN PICS, IT HAS A SPIRIT BOOT LIP AND THE CAR HAS BEEN DE-BADGED. THE ROOF AND BOOT LID HAVE HAIL DENTS, I HAVE REPLACED THE BONNET, AND I HAVE A SPARE BOOT THAT IS REASONABLY STRAIGHT. ALSO HAVE A SPARE BOOT SPOILER THAT HAS A FEW CRACKS BUT ISN'T TOO BAD, AND A SPARE LEFT FRONT GUARD THAT IT PRETTY STRAIGHT WITH A LITTLE BIT OF SURFACE RUST DOWN THE BOTTOM. I'VE STRIPPED OUT THE INTERIOR & MOUNTED A FIXED BACK MONZA RACE SEAT, IT HAS A SPORTS STEERING WHEEL, A 5" TYPE R MONSTER TACHO WITH A SHIFT LIGHT, SAAS VOLTS, BOOST, WATER TEMP, AND OIL PRESSURE GAUGES THAT CHANGE COLOUR BUT ONLY THE VOLTS AND OIL PRESSURE GAUGES ARE HOOKED UP AS I DIDN'T HAVE THE CORRECT SENDER FOR THE WATER TEMP, AND I COULDN'T GET THE BOOST GAUGE TOO WORK, THE IGNITION BARREL HAS BEEN REMOVED AND HAS A PANEL WITH SWITCHES FOR IGNITION, F/PUMP, THERMO FAN & START BUTTON MOUNTED ON THE DASH.
