[Mk2] [Turbo] My rev2 rebuild log.

[2mad]

Found the problem, The ecu provided in my gen3 conversion package was actually a gen2 & its was also faulty (now fixed)

so im on the hunt for a gen3 ecu. anyone know anyone selling one? dont really wanna mod this loom to work with a gen2 ecu & pull out the larger injectors.

I've got a rev3 ecu £100 plus postage and ill only ask for the postage asked for ... sent parcel2go 24hour if posable .. check my feed back

ECU turned up, nice one Kev just need to get down to the garage which will be the moment i finish work.

this time I hope i can post a video of what it sounds like!!

[2mad]

No worries mate .. any problems let me know and ill sort it out ... fingers crossed bud

[Grazzy]

Right the ECU sorted the problem out, Nice one Kev!

Just need this gearbox oil to turn up & some induction pipe to delete the AFM, I think both items will be turning up today or tomorrow.

[2mad]

Well chuffed for you mate .. cant wait for you to be up and boosting .. sure it will be no time


Kev.

[Grazzy]

its almost ready for been MOT'ed Had an oil leak that needed addressing. oil pump seal started crying.

but other than this everything was running great, Loom and sensor swap appears to have worked. the AFM is no more.

[2mad]

Glad its coming along nicely, got to expect a few teething problems .. youll have them ironed out in no time .. keep us updated

[Grazzy]

Yeah its getting closer. changed the oil pump seal gasket also another sump gasket. both of these have been changed. It does not appear to be leaking but its not been turned over yet. Found a part in the gear box that needed replacing. looks like a Y fork thats connects to the release bearing (i think) and the povit it connects to were very worn and sloppy. this is turning up tomorrow.

[2mad]

I spent 5years of my life waiting for car parts lol you'll get there mate

[Grazzy]

Its close now. All issues resolved but one. still getting an oil leak from the oil pump. its had the gasket seal & o ring replaced. The new o ring had torn I did think that would have been the end of it. Sadly not.

Its only leaking when the engine is running, it is a genuine part from Toyota also. its like theirs something missing or not tight inside it. Ive just dropped off the old pump, time to compare the 2 see whats at miss.

Thats f-ing brilliant .. so pleased for you mate .. good luck with the mot

[Grazzy]

I cant get an MOT on it till Monday. the 4-5 places I've used before and are close are all booked up till then.

Bit of a kick in the teeth, but who cares it sorted

Sounds epic tho, that KO system deffo gives it a very deep burble. more to come soon.

Now the engine builds out of the way can start finishing getting the other bits of body kit im missing.

im still trying to work out weather i want to go with coil overs or uprated shocks and springs.

[juliankv73]

Glad your loving the KO racing R1, that exhaust rocks

Looking forward to your spirited drive posts now
