Congrats Buddy

Did you get any further information on trying a turbo on buds G6R?

[Yarisboy]

nice one knowl :) wot sort of 0-60 are you doing now?

[knowlson]

Finecactus : Hi mate the turbo idea went out the windows when pete found out that you can get a 1.6 20v with a 6 speed we are looking into getting that fitted at the mo

Yarisboy: no idea yet mate but the car is sooooo much quicker at 4000 rpm in 5th the car will wheelspin hehe I LOVE IT I now own the m25 anyone willing to take me on will now get spanked.......

[corollasr]

good to hear you've got it sorted. if only i was a couple of years older i'd ge tthe 3sgte mr2 turbo motor. guess i'll have to be content with the 1.6. can still get wheelspin in second so i'm happy with it.................................... for now

Nice 1 Knowles

Welcome back to the land of roots type blower! Sometimes its hard to tell if you are losing power - I sometimes think that I am either getting used to the power or getting paranoid.

I was wondering which one I was when the power in the Twinny seemed to be a 'little' tamer. Took my mate out in it who thought it was seriously quick and would blow his GTi-R away. Should have seen his face when we popped the bonnet on the twinny and found that the Turbo outlet hose had completely come away! I had been running on just an SC for a while! Now its sorted its mental again, just cant be driven safely in this weather.

Jon (JMB) - Got my hoses on Saturday too thanks, they are the business, cant wait to get them under the bonnet. Thanks again.

Thanks mate

Took a couple of my mates out last night for a quick spin they loved it, they all said it was like being in a diffrent car

Yo , what are the plans on the G6-R , are you going to use the orginal 6 speed gearbox from the 4 A-FE engine on the silvertop or blacktop 20 v B)

We have found that there is a levin in japan that comes with the 4age 20v with a 6 speed allready. So we wont need the 4afe with the 6 speed

Good news! and im sure sooner than you expected..........didnt you first think it would'nt be until January that you would have it fixed?

Anyway enjoy it when you can as in this weather it isnt going to be that often

I skidded on black ice the other day, and that was walking down the drive!

[Bibbs]

Front engine, FWD, SC vs mid engine, RWD, turbo

I dont think the charger was working from the start

Did you never get the car on a dyno when you had the engine dropped in?

[L4AGZE]

Apologies for my messed up use of the quote facility, will get it right one day!

[knowlson]

L4AGZE: Yep but they managed to get me in sooner It helps to pester people Now after driving the car a bit more I now know the charger unit was never working from the start I wish I got it on a dyno becuase the car is very diffrent now

Bibbs: now that sounds like an plan mate

[ahsonlam]

so are u fitting the supercharger in with the 4afe engine or...u change da engine as well???
