the turbo

heat sheild as i want to go legit turbo

nice sounding car there mate. just wondering what you have covering the cooler there?? almost looks photochopped.

actually its shade clothe, sprayed with a $2 can of EA red.
its to try and hide the cooler until i get a new front bar
plus it keeps the bugs out of the cooler.

Welcome to the forums Brad.

Are you the guy who bought Troutys EA Ghia ?

i bought "ilsautomotive" or whatever his name was on AFF white ea ghia a long time back if thats what you mean?
i ended up stripping it for parts as too many issues/costs to get her back on the road
which was a shame.

heres a pic

Pics of BA shifter setup farken! plz

haha yeah that's who I meant. The car that started it all. lol

ive still got the Fucking huge Mitso Turbo at home if anyone wants to buy it

as for the BA shifter...i can only show you the custom bracket as i dont have any photos inside the car as im still in the process of a custom interior (at the moment only lots of plywood)
remember the ba shifter only does PRND and is cable driven rather than bar driven....123 are done via electrics





i will try and get inside pics up asap
brad

hey anyone know wtf is the boosted hidden section?
i cant get access into it...or is it only for admins?

brad

Ahh yes, I spotted those in your VicFords thread. Very quality setup mate, much better than mine

I was referring to the interior pics.

So are you building up your centre console EA2BA (pre-ZF) style & integrating the PRND fascia? What will you be doing about your ashtray, front bin, electric windows, etc?

I posted my interior examples up in your Vicfords thread but I'm not sure if you've read it since then. Seems "Brendan" isn't a fan of my setup

Boosted hidden section is for trusted long-term/senior/etc members Like OzE VIP but with awesomeness, and without the homosexuality

i damn near pissed myself laughing...great call!
fair enough. thanks for the info.

umm not exactly...most will prob hate my interior
ive gone full custom centre columb...as in nothing original from back seat up to dash
door trims are also custom which houses all the speakers (8 in total)
front door
kicker 6x9 & kicker 6"
rear door
kicker 6x9
parcel
kicker 6"

yeah i got the speakers real cheap thought i would be different and pile them all in.
i gotta stress....its only in plywood...its not finished.
i will get pics

brad

That's what build threads are about - seeing the progress









If there's no pics by 5pm I'll get this thread moved to the technical section... or locked

Yeah, it's in Rollins` ED.

Also from memory Jack/John/Trouty/ILS bought that turbo brand new and paid like 11tybillion!!!11! $$$ for it.

bought brand new? really i thought it was secondhand...haha...just needs some TLC
yeah i just need to move it...ive got my turbo....some hoping it will be usefull on another e-series.

brad

What size is that thing? It looks to be a Mitsubishi TD08, but the plaque says TD07 on it?

EDIT: found some info when searching TD07/8's...

some turbo performance website dude on some random forum wrote:Greddy modifies Mitsu turbos. I don't have any published specs for Greddy turbos and i have not taken any time to measure them. It's possible some of turbos have different specs from Mistubishi. Also, both Greddy TD05 and TD06 use 3 bolt turbine flange where as Mistubishi's uses 4 bolt flanges.

Bisides the TD04, TD05, TD06, TD07 and TD08 turbos, Greddy also makes hybrid turbo, T67 is TD07 compressor and TD06 turbine, same turbo as TD06SH-25G. T78 is the compressor of TD08 and turbine of TD07, T88 uses compressor and turbine from TD08.

thanks for the info.
an offer has been put forth....will wait and see if it sells
if not ill let you know

thanks
brad

Nice ride Brad - Pics don't do it justice, looks better in the flesh

very nice bradman, looked good sadday night, would have been better if you took the redmesh off and showed the intercooler though, still very nice though.

Oi Brad, got pics of your interior-in-progress yet?

what happens when a trailer bounces off the ball...damn faulty trailer

internal pics - NOT FINISHED YET














behind the fire extingushers sits a PS2 normally
the ba shifter will have a rubber/plastic follow slide so that you cant see thru into the console
ltd lights in the doors onto a aftermarket delay circuit

a new plan has been formulated for the last un-used switch on the console...
IT will operate a BBM solinoid that will control the reference vacuum on the BOV so that i can switch between DOSE and PLUMB BACK BOV....well in my head it will work...will have to wait until turbo is on to prove if itll work.
meh just another bit of wank factor for bradmans ea

brad

the boot layout - STILL NOT FINISHED

eeeewwwww what a homo car lol. nah good on ya brad.just finish it for **** sake lol.

I personally believe the red flip switches look way too tacky on the centre console, but I think that if you persevere with it, that interior could come up looking really really good, I see what you're trying to achieve

yeah the red switches do look shitty.
but at the time thats all the back lite switches jaycar had in stock.
the type that i actually want are about $25 each...which is why i went the 50cents ones as other bits of the car need money first.....like tuning once the turbo is on
its kinda like an MR2 cabin...well only kinda.
im not a fan of round, hence the box look.
if i had my way the rear seat will be out and replaced with 2 more racing seats and continue the consol right up to rear shelf to make it flow....but at the moment engineering cost are too high.

yes dylan im working on getting the car finished btw she feels like silk this morning when i took those shots...im loving that wax you got me

brad

my new idea i was talking about


brad

Lookin good! Cant wait to see it finished!

Was wonderin why u had the cloth over the cooler the other night... ?:p

Not too sure what you're wanting to achieve with the doorskins beyond the speakers/courtesy lights (custom skin pattern? custom armrests? etc), but the centre console looks like it'll turn up looking pretty awesome. Good work so far mate, I'm looking forward to seeing it in person, AFD perhaps?

hahah @ dose switch, i was tempted to do that with mine, but thought i'll avoid that idea coz i'll leave it on dose too much.

3000 stally has arrived...yay!




brad

update??? haha want to see center console
