Im now using motul synergie+ 6100 10w40. I have finally fitted oil temp sensor, drilled oil sump plug .




Led in my gauges were bad and i had to change them, I also fitted yellow plastic bag to make all gauges look white-ish since boost gauge is fitted with warm white leds but egt and oil leds are cold white. Cold white were bad and started blinking so i changed them with better quality ones but couldn't find warm white so bag did its thing . Earlier i also changed red needle leds with quality ones.




First time ive mounted them, its clearly visible that boost lights different...



Then led in my dials went bad started blinking so i changed with better ones which are warm white even tho ive ordered cold ones



In the end ive got reverse cam, im gonna drill rear bumper just for the lens i dont care bout those leds around it . It has 420TV lines, wide angle of view, mirror image and parking lines...

Ive drilled rear bumer and connected parking camera. Video switches when i put in reverse .

Dusty cam and photos in the dark...

Ive decided to upgrade my "styling"



Opening the ecu



Replacing standard chips with EDS Phase 2



She was struggling under high boost so i decided to check fuel pressure and it was very bad. Found out i have chinese fuel pump, very bad contacts and awful wiring. Clean contacts were measured 11.6v with new ground, fuel pump relay was 14.3.




I have added another + from relay to the fuel pump, 2.5mm2 wire and pump was much louder . Car drove much better but still some struggling between 4-5k rpm. I have swapped FPR with modified bosch to 3.5bar but haven't got time to measure the pressure. Anyways my next step is to buy another fuel pump.



I'm thinking of buying walbro 255 external to replace this junk. In the meantime i will use bosch from 8v just to test it out when i get time to swat those two

After few months of missfire at wot and high rpm i realized my plugs were 1.1mm and not 0.6 . I never thought it was a missfire since i never got exhaust firing. Also i got new leads and sparks. I was sure my sparks were 0.6 ive bouht it by EDS recommendation. One day after reading on many forums for like 999x that someone had bad gap ive checked my spark specs and was happy to solve my problem . In the meantime ive tried bosch fuel pump from my 8v then i got walbro and it was still missfiring. Since i got chinese fuel pump in the first place walbro turned out to be great investment . Fuel pressure is now 3.7Bar on idle...

Swapping oem bosch with walbro



And one testing video, runs awesome!1!!!

I've bought some parts off Webboy's Calibra, FMIC etc...

First ive shortened ignition coil lead.


Headlight leveling and switch with white LEDs



FMIC



C20XE radiator



Ive got modified viscous coupling and renewed TXB.

Then I began installing FMIC

Cutting crash bar and replacing servo fluid cooling pipes




Then I realized there is EDS pdf for dummies so I replaced servo fluid cooling pipes above oil radiator. Then washed everything



It fits like this



Then trimmed front bumper a bit . Pipes will wait for few months



Some pictures of Webboy modifying TXB, replacing viscous coupling oil with more densely silicone one, so more power will be transfered to the rear wheels. Picture of servo oil pressure gauge









He gave up on his cali so lots of good rare and unused parts were sold...

[UndYinG]

Shaft looks bad, im sure he changed it since he had few TXB's, gotta give him a call. Im not sure will i ever mount that , friend crashed his calibra and I thought its nice to have that txb in my garage? So good question, do I really need more power to the rear and what do I get? Did he really need servo fluid pressure gauge ))) its Webboy and his awesome ideas....

[UndYinG]

Ordinary maintainance, I've got K&N panel air filter.

Changed polen filter and did AC cleaning.


Got new exide premium batt


Fitted another fuel filter behind inlet manifold because my fuel hose is too short now

[EY]

Transfer box work looks interesting!

[UndYinG]

Clutch began to slip so gearbox was removed

Then modified txb got attached

Washed it and its ready to go back

It will be done next week, im also replacing left engine mount because its broken.

I did cheap WG mod by adding old, dirty and rusty spring . Theres MUCH MORE BOOST now! It went to 1.3bar and i thought it was too much since i experienced slight spluttering. Boost gauge needle was shakey. I was worried so i lowered the boost by adjusting WG. Then i got mail from EDS stating that it should hold 1bar and overboost to ABOUT ~1.3bar on phase 2. Realized i got disconnected vacuum pipe (probably due to higher boost then usual). I secured small pipe and no more spluttering, boosting is awesome and very fun again. It will feel usual in a few months as always, but now its damn fast .


I've found loose hubs holding the turbo, 2 are missing, im the one who screwed them (if you know what i mean), never thought hubs could get loose. Also missing screws on the exhaust side right on the turbo manifold.







Then i decided to play with my hood, paint got chipped and i didnt wanna just paint it...







BEFORE AND AFTER

love the bonnet, Ray wanted to do that years ago but never got round to it looks amazing
