I'm not sure what you're asking about, but I didn't use OEM honda rings. they have their own set of rings (OEM TRD) lol

the picture of the turbo is already up, I think this thread has about two of them.

nice build keep it up

thanks!

new upgrades

WantWin LSD

Supertech Valves, Crower Retainers and Blox Valvesprings. my old type-r springs were a bit on the soft side already as some (4 valves I think on random pistons and sides) valves made minor dings on the piston.

plus a dedicated Neptune RTP Demon + PWM solenoid is on its way hopefully soon. I'm itching on making this car run at drag events already. still need to buy new tires though...

here's the car as it stands now, about to face 967kms to go before I can beat on it again

Great build

 

[Chicas]

thought I'd make a video on this car.

currently I'm boosting 15 psi according to the Neptune, 1.25ish bar according to the Defi on pump gas. hopefully I'll be able to tune this weekend at roughly 20 psi or so.

wow amazing build mate,

in your video at 1:38 - 1:39 in 2nd gear... i can hear Vtec engage and then your turbo takes over.....

Is yoru turbo boosting at 6000RPM or something like that... wasn't expecting to hear Vtec engage and then the turbo spooling... i'd have thought you'd want it to be spolling with or before Vtec..

amazing sound, it seem's to warp time in parts of the video.. !!! thanks for sharing the video.

Sounds an absolute monster, the acceleration from 6k+ is just insane Topher pretty much sums it up for me.

Nice video man !

 

[Gav-EK9]

ha, holy ****, as said sounds amazing man, makes me want boost

VTEC is set at 4500 right now, and the turbo arrives on full boost at about 5000-5500 rpms, rev limit is set at 8800. pre VTEC, its boosting already about 0.5bar.

of course I'd love to have it a bit earlier than how its responding, but unlike most people I guess Im pretty ok with lag as long as I dont bog down at full rpm shifts

thanks for the comment

AH vtec at 4500 and boost at 5000 makes sense TBH mate..

i was thinking your Vtec was alot higher...
TBH i also like the feeling of lag... used to love flooring it at 40mph in 4th gear in my starlet Gt and that was only 180hp.. .. can't imagine what its like in this..
One day i will ... one day

you had a 4EFTE? that's on my wishlist right now! I want to have it mounted on a corolla ae110 4dr as a sleeper that gets me around, does good mpg and runs quick as well. well money does not exactly grow on trees here so...

how's the 1300cc turbo compared to your EK in terms of performance and fuel economy? was your starlet modded? I've only driven 2 4EFTEs, for some reason the modded one felt less powerful the one with just a couple of bolt-ons...

 

[BuddyClubctr]

great car m8!! you did a good job sounds amazing also

 

[ross16i16]

Sounds mental haha

Bit of an NA fan myself but thumbs up for me on this one

yeah it was the 4E-FTE... it was modded..
front mount intercooler with hard pipes. cold air intake, screamer pipe/decat 2.75 straight through exhuast custom made, boost controller set to 0.95 bar. uprated actuator, bored out wastegate, standard CT9 turbo with the wastegate bored out and i suspect there was an aftermarket ECU tune hiding somewhere as it felt much quikcer than a chaps i went in with the same mods.. so i belive it had had a tune..

It was a great little car very tourquey engine for 1300cc, i have a mate who has a stock glanza v at the minute and all we did was the override the boost cut in 1st and 2nd gear mod and it flies... its so quick of the mark. as mine needed to time to spool he is simply instant GO..

i belive in the toyota world the boys go for the 5E engine and then turbo it so they have 1500cc.. from the RAV4 i belive...

compared to the EK4 i simply can't compare it.....

Vtec is perfect linear power and always fels like it has grip.
The starlet had tourque steer and squirmed like a bitch on full throttle. the wheels were always fighting for traction in 1st and 2nd and a bit in 3rd..
All the power is a surge from 2500 - 6500
where as the Vtec is as you know power from 5500 - 8400...
depends how you want your car's to react.
i persoanlly like to change down and rev high.
where as my mate likes to sit in 3rd at 30mph and have instant go so he likes his turbo glanza.

hope that helps a bit mate in your decisions..
