your car sounds hot man. some pics would be cool though. i'm looking into putting a new engine into my tx5, did you have any trouble with the changeover?


Posted by: SABBAi on April 30, 2004 [ Car Profile ]

Hey EVL, take a look in his profile for where he lives! wink.gif

jesus nice ride and nice conversion blinky..

ive heard those FE3's haul ass, with a redline at 8000rpm, twincam, semi? forged internals and 2 litres of forced induction that thing should fly...

what sort of boost are you running, what were your figures on your last dyno run, are you aiming for 12's? should be good for low 13's high 12's if its setup nicely in good condition i would think..

awesome ride, keep up the good work cool.gif

I like how you went for red details with everything. Not a bad looking car.


Posted by: QIK-TX5 on August 16, 2004 [ Car Profile ]

hey, just saw the new pics. looks great man, nice work. how much did those seat covers set you back? cos i've been looking round for a set of loose fitting ones like those for ages and couldnt find any


Posted by: zorb_rules on August 17, 2004 [ Car Profile ]

Hey dude I know for a fact u can get those seat covers from autobarn I was looking for some the other day and saw them but got diferent tight fiting ones instead I think the pair of front's were round 65 and the back 80 thats just off the top of my head though I dont remember exactly.


Posted by: zorb_rules on August 17, 2004 [ Car Profile ]

Hey dude just wondering how much ya comp was? and where did ya get it from? also did it make much difference to performance?


Posted by: atjet on August 24, 2004 [ Car Profile ]

you have you pod going straight to the turbo how do you this with out having you air flow meter attachted? do you have a computer?


Posted by: blinky blitz on September 1, 2004 [ Car Profile ]

the computer cost me $1300 from grp-auto on brisbanes northside. i dont really know about the performance coz it was done when i got the engine put in but my mates got the same model but manual and standard ecu we both boostin 15psi and i blitz him so it must do a bit. if your in brisbane though go to maz-fix speak to archie, they're qld's dealers of micro-tech and turbo-smart.also check out the worlds first 6 second rotary in the show room.


Posted by: zorb_rules on September 9, 2004 [ Car Profile ]
