Jimbobs Lexus IS200 Turbo!
Jimbobs Lexus IS200 Turbo!
Finally went out to car and removed old oil cooler piping and found one of the unions quite loose so I'm assuming that's the oil leak lol. I've also ordered original oil cooler to bring sandwich plate further away from the block as I'm not limited for space due to original intake manifold. I found that the sandwich plate is too close to the block and makes it very difficult to get unions tightened up. With that I bought new sandwich plate for 8an so my pipes are not so big and there is enough flow. So waiting on them now! Orderef new turbo smart blow off valve as well as needed a new one and I can get this mounted properly so it tidies that up so I've not got so many clamps just looks tacky! Next order will be the new dash2 so I'll research all I need for that as T-Lex needs MOT and wouldn't pass with original dash as half the bits don't work lol

I relocated my oil cooler and mounted that in new location and bought all new AN fixings so now the air on the passenger side enters through the front and out my newly cut side vents.

Fitted my chargespeed bonnet although it does need spraying as you can see the sun damage to it. This still requires doing.
