this proves he's not.

hye... may i noe tdo5h will suit 4g18p nicely.?? or i just get tdo4l as a bot beginner??

as i noe td04l spool is much faster...

depend on your ride.... TD04L not to say spool faster but the compression map covers low load to mid load however above 4k rpm 4G18 exhaust flow is a bit high for this Turbine which is out of the compression Map.... so TD04L will be suitable for auto cars and daily town drive....

Turbo setup there is no beginner or advanced.... it is depend how much are you willing to invest. any setup changes would require redo everything which it cost from scratch again.... A well done system would cost about 6 to 8k anyway some people do manage to get less than 3k but reliability unknown. To mod internals + bolt on system it will cost from 10k - 20k. Plonking another engine is another question.... it is depend that u prefer stock engine mod or half cut mod....

thx for ur reply... now saving bullet ^^ hope d project can be done before next year cny

Hi guys~ weee

So where did you get the turbo manifold?Custom it?

you still have to custom because most of the people used VTEC header to mod and the output power is very bad due to the header flange hole out by 2-5mm which create restriction and turbulence in the header. On high rev it might kill the car.

Anyone wanna to custom piping for BOT pls let me know.... i might able to get good package for u guys if u go for bulk at least 3 car...

just brought in some new stuff to sell :

Hi there all the sifus...Relatively new to LYN and lurk around most of the time and now wants to join in

I'm a super noob, a big one i meant in car...I'm having a Waja 4g18p (year 2001) bought 2nd and no maintenance done yet(guess the previous owner treated the car badly )...Engine is noisy and read ThunderGod_cid 3bond thingy...

so now i'm asking for advices...Is the grounding necessary? and what engine oil you guys recommend? my car is going about 320k+ ady...engine coolant necessary or rather just water?

Thanks in advance first and am a student, so budget abit tight

and the TT is super near....my exam hall is just around the corner(Bukit Jalil)

To all the sifus, I after reading the advices though i only understand maybe 10-20% of it

Cant reply much here.... Saudi block LYN forum for dunno what reason and now im running VPN and it is super slow...

wait i come back and see see and if i rajin i reply hahaha most of the time im lazy

haha...its ok sifu...i'll take my time and go through v11...so many pages

just curious, how much you paid for your ride? auto/manual?

what you mean by the TT is super near? LOL

Your condition about the same as mine when the car handed to me, 350k+. The car is treated like a bull or cow until i took over it.

I'm not that expert in all these, but the list that I did to the car after handed over: (before was driven by parents)
Interior
1. Wash, Vacuum, Wax. DIY, whole interior of car cleared thoroughly, took 1 whole day to complete (Cost: RM20)
2. Waterspot treatment then RainX all glasses. DIY few hours. (Cost: RM12+RM18)
3. Dashboard clean and dashboard shine. DIY Normal warm water cleaning on all dashboards, foam cleanser on seats and door fabrics, then dashboard protectant (Cost: RM18+RM2)
4. Bought a steering wheel cover and useless but high visible steering lock (RM8+RM20)
5. Identified all interior faulty parts such as cigar lighters, blown bulbs, fuses and replaced it. If in trouble looking for spare parts, get from Proton Service Centre but quite expensive. DO compare before considering Proton's.
6. Pandan leaves to get rid of cockroaches. (Active in nights, sometimes purposely stop car at roadside to hit them)
7. Ambi Pur to push down odour of cigar + sweat + a lot of other aromas since year 2003.

I seemed to be very cary about the interior... dunno why but I think interior is important as we spend the most time in contact with the car in its interior. Basically after interior is cleaned and polished the interior can easily return like new. Scratches and spots can be easily gone after dashboard shine. Tough stains all i use WD40. The only regret part is wear and tear of gear shift and steering, kept on flaking while driving. For me steering lock quite important as I parked outside for long hours on roadside during college.

Performance (A lot of repairs has been done before the car is passed down, but still problematic )
1. Changed to Mobil 1 full synthetic. Before that was Castrol magnetec semi synthetic. (RM149)
2. Flushed radiator and added coolant. Before that was using only TAP WATER... DIY 3 hours by buying radiator flush and coolant. (RM9+RM20)

About the coolant personally I felt no noticible difference after added it. My parents claimed that coolant is just waste of money, just use tap water and masa sampai tukar radiator sahaje. But conversion from castrol to mobil 1 I do felt the difference, but is not much as I'm using NGV all the time.

Other's i'll leave it to sifu's.

I got mine at 18k...so i don complain much lor.... oh and its AT

Means the Teh Tarik session place is super near to me..coz im studying at APIIT @TPM...and APIIT exam hall is at the shop lots near TT place....

cyanboy - wow...thanks for taking the time and listing out all the things you did...apparently, i did all the interior stuff as well...HATE cockroaches in car

well my car was using mineral oil, changed by the car dealer and tap water...so now is nearing the time to change oil...that's y i want more advices...

18k? Thats quite cheap i guess for an AT. Paid 20700 for mine and its a manual. Only diff is that mine's only got 68k on the clock and also a year 2001 apparently my car's previous owner use it as a weekend car due to the manual gearbox.

where say got TT? why i dunno wan?

Stalker

Yes it's cheap. But like cyanboy said. It is handled like a cow by the previous owner. But I'm glad the power windows all no rosak and I got a free full body clean up includes carpet, seat, dash board and wax and oh a free paint for my bonet cover

I dono got TT anot also. I was just saying the place is near that's all. Awww~~~don't burst out in tears so fast.

jrboy : looks like I have all the engine solutions for you... SMS me alright.

Nightstalker : how's ur car?

noisy engine is probably caused by worn out engine mounting; cabin noise intrusion is unbearable at anything higher than 3.2k rpm.
Properly done grounding cables will eliminates the current lag. ie; eliminate hesitating power window, smoother gear change and slightly cooler air-cond. Also, minimal increased in engine's performance.
For such a high mileage, stay away from a fully synthetic. semi-synthetic is fine. or better, use mineral based oil.
For a little of cabin comfort, get a piece of nano odour remover.
Go for radiator flushing. 1 1/2 bottles of toyota / proton coolant and the rest with distilled water. The left over coolant
can + distilled water can be used for the reservoir.

Since you're unsure about the previous maintenance, contact elton@thundergod_cid for throttle body cleaning / engine maintenance.
also, since the mileage is very high, stay away from atf flushing. it will kill the gearbox's already worn out rubber seal in shorter time. Just an atf change will be okay.

Yesh, I'm definitely come find u. I wan decat.

Yngwie. Wow thanks for all the info but still find Elton and do maintenance. Only consider the radiator and others. Since am student, so can only do 1 at the time

So I use mineral oil is enuf rite.
