  4. yes mate in the meets and events section buddy get on it
  5. i've already asked, he doesn't know last time he told me
  6. i quit like the fluttering sound ye will probably be run at low pressure at the minute. ye air con is still in, i still need to take it out at some point when i can be bothered lol would it help to get an oil cooler?
  7. do it man, get a hotel or something up there for the night maybe? or close by
  8. good mate. also i think your parcel came today so im picking it up from the depo tomorrow after work. will keep you posted to whether its yours or not
  9. very ncie mate love the colour on it and your girlfreinds hair goes well with the car too should be good seing you at more meets. you coming to japfest 2?
  10. also there's a meet in cheddar gorge next month on the 23rd of june i forgot to tell you about last night. its a sunday
  11. i've got a D16W4 i think. i'll have to have a read tonight through those forums. i think by the time i come to do the conversion i'll hopefully have the use of my mums car so shouldn't be too bad. ye i need a slim intercooler but thing is what about sizes though? does it matter how big or small they are? will i need an oil cooler as well will i? sorry for all the questions im such a noob at the whole turbo scene. i know how they work its just all the other parts that go with it. also not looking to get a BOV as i want it to be a sleeper
  12. looking good mate we'll have to get some piccies together once i've got my stuff on mine
  13. thanks mate, she's got some new parts to go on within he next few weeks thanks for the info, i really need to look into this and get my head around everything before i even start buying, because knowing me i'll start buying and wont finish and will have parts all over the place. probably best if i get a daily while this is in the process when i come round to actually doing the conversion. are there any good sites that i can get info off for like injectors, fuel rails etc? probably run with the hondata ECU i recon and then get TRD to tune it for me most likely
  14. well my plan is to start to build up parts. race-teck up in sheffield do a kit, and the can fit it aswel for a price. i think i just need to start with the main ingrediants to get me started and a bigger shed to fit it all in. would you reccomend a cast manifold or SS? the cast ones are meant to be better?
  15. so its basically what ever i do, its going to be a costly and long process? i quite like the thought of having a turbo though. what it like on fuel not going into boost?
  16. just had a good read through your thread and its brilliant really want to do my deck now. but i've been told it might be easier and cheaper to just stick another lump in
  17. yes i know that. i emailed race-teck, and they said that changing engine would be the first thing i'd do :S got a little confused. they do a kit for about £1400 which aint bad tbh
  18. basically time has come to turbo my car into a sleeper all im really after is some ingrediants on what i will need or essential to the conversion. manifold turbo intercooler and pipes etc turbo timer maybe ECU new clutch fuel rail injectors can anyone point me in the right direction? do i get a kit and do it? or do i buy seperate and build it that way?
  19. im going to enter Raz, he's done a cracking job at doing the rear arches and sills (wish i could do things like that) and he's inspired me to find a JDM parking pole viewtopic.php?f=141&t=10711
  20. One if my mates is buying them hopefully. Bit of a set back with some parts coming through they will be fitted before japfest lol
  21. Thanks Tom will have to have a gander through and see who else is worthy. Haven't been looking through the build thread for a while as I've been too busy busy few weeks before japfest for me
  22. Looks like my wheels are sold I think. Should be going a week after japfest. Ten back to standards for a while till I find a set I like
  23. might be time for a change though i think, got my eyes on a set but need these gone first really
