IRLRs200

thanks noel i ll order one now, just the start of many mods lol Might be worth getting an Apexi Neo too, so you can adjust your air/fuel ratio to make the most of the induction kit. But if you have loads of engine mods planned an Apexi Power fc( aftermarket ecu) might be a better option

Ah it wasnt even a proper quarter mile so i think my best time was about 12.06. fastest cars were around 9.6, the big boy Predator performance skylines and AI Auto sport Evo's, would have been nice if they organised it by class like they were supposed to. Not much you can do against an STI or a heavily tuned Prelude! Supercharger should sort that! 12.06????? typo? :shutit: Must have been well short of quater mile if thats the case.... Lamborghini Gallardo does it in around 12 seconds.... :winky: Ye wasnt even the full length of the straight i'd say about 300m

lovely car lads saw it on in the flesh on Sunday at Japfest, never got a spin in it though Bobby! next time maybe. It was attracting a lot of attention from the crowds. Well wear Bobby

Not the best quality clip. Here's my drag attempt from Japfest at the weekend, I won the first one but lost the other 2 because the organisers messed up and put me against cars in the class above mine. Still gave them a good run! 2 Altezza's Me vs prelude Me vs Sti Thanks to endapender for the video clips :winky: And one or 2 pics. Second from the left in the second picture is Bobby's Toms 280T Altezza. RARE!!

easy peasy to do

Cheers lads, i'll let you know how i get on, on Sunday

I know, i know, but it always seems to kick in at roughly the same point, 4000-4500rpm! It would be nice to have the variable range start lower done the rev range!

Could be a few things affecting your emmissions, catalytic convertor could be on its way out, you could have some non standard parts affecting your emissions( decat pipe)

i am in kent uk.take it ur in manchester. Power fc is a complete ECU replacement, just unplug your old ecu and in with the Power FC. @Mac: Do you know if you can adjust when the VVTI kicks in on the Power fc?? I think i would benefit more getting a power fc as im running mine on biofuel and would like to get it mapped to 104 Ron( Biofuel Octane rating) and adjust the VVTI timing, i can get a POwer FC for about 500 Euro, Camcon about 250, same price approx for tuning

Anyone know the going quarter mile time for a fairly Standard Altezza? In a drag competition on Sunday just want to have something to aim for, maybe do a few practice starts somewhere quiet!

Welcome to the site mate, There is plenty of original altezza's for sale on carzone.ie so i wouldnt go near any with lexus badges etc, because it could end up being an as200, which you dont want. there is a few lads over on Tezzaworld selling Altezza's might be worth a look. Pm me if you want a link as i don't want to link to another site here! :shutit:

Info on Power FC: power fc Save your money and dont get a camcon, Power fc does everything a camcon does and more, No power gains with camcon as far as im aware, only slightly better torque You might find it hard to get a Power FC as they arent being mass produced any more by Apexi, back ordered a few weeks from most suppliers, Ebay sellers dont have them in stock even though they state they have "X" Available

I got the other off Stav :winky: What do u mean they could go up in smoke?

@Tyrone: its a customs made exhaust system Gav made himself i think looks savage mate, wish i had of been able to meet up with you last weekend when i was up that way! Ah maybe next time!!

then explain to me exactly what "4 king" actually means or represents The sequel to 3 kings :shutit:

I know Mac but, ill go with the higher one!! There was another guy with me in a standard Altezza he got 195, Dizz got 196 in the same place a month ago, thats good enough for me

Its basically like a small piggy back ecu, it connects onto your injectors and onto the battery. The unit automatically adjusts to whatever fuel you put in the car so if you cant find a garage that sells E85 you can just use normal unleaded. Over In Ireland, more and more garages are adopting the pumps to use this and its currently 95.6 cent(65 p) per litre and has been like this for months. Its environmentally friendly fuel so prices shouldn't go up to encourage people to make the change over. Not sure how it works with non standard ecu's but ill hopefully be doing that soon too. Using it with your turbo Ellz, i could see it adding about 40bhp! remember that episode of top gear showing increases gained using different types of fuel.Similar story with E85 as its 104Ron Thor racing fuel type test

So lads just back from East coast customs up North after getting the car dyno'ed. The last time i got the car dyno'ed was in March 2007 in Westward Engineering. Car setup on march 2007 Westward dyno: Apexi Power intake with induction box Sports back box Result:196.8bhp Car setup August 2007 ECC dyno: Apexi Panel Filter Denso Iridium Ik20 spark plugs Standard back box Full flex Gold Biofuel adpater kit Result: 217.5 bhp So as you can see none of the other changes ive made since the first dyno added much power , probably a loss if anything. ie removing the induction kit and sports cat back. So running your car on E85 is a cheap power gain mod. Thats and increase of 20.7bhp. Torque increased too, to 165lb f/t up from 150lb f/t 400 Euro well spent i think And for anyone with a turbo should expect even bigger gains hopefully Ill stick up the 2 graphs soon for comparison All figures at the flywheel

but i havent seen any after market MD headunits

EXCUSE ME!!!! whats wrong with the RS200 auto? or do you mean an AS200 auto? two different beasts altogether i'll have you know.... easy Noel! I meant the AS200, don't worry if im referring to yours ill call it the "tip" model

Md are old and out of date! Not sure if there is anyone that still makes md players for cars. i just have a Pioneer headunit that plays cds and mp3s, wma's. not much else you need

It has the Lexus Logo in the middle... and its has the 1998 4 Cyl engineer(which comes wit the Rs200). Get rid of those lexus logo's dude!! Or something like mine?

Nice car mate, but take the Lexus badges off, it ain't a Lexus! What year is it, as the colour looks different to my blue one!

Heatgun takes forever, just stick it in the oven on about 120 degrees for 2 minutes at a time, constantly check them. make sure no part of the light touches any part of the oven. Put it on a piece of cardboard in the oven
