My little project - IS200 Turbo
My little project - IS200 Turbo
When I was asking bodyshops if they could roll mine I was offered the scaffolding pole method, but I told them to F off and said its a Lexus and not a poxy Nova
The car is still very good thanks. Dean - that's the kind of nightmare scenario that I could end up with in the worst case, I hope it doesn't come to that ! cared:
I checked my fuel consumption and I'm getting about 29mpg. Which isn't bad, I think.
There is a bit of lumpiness in how the car runs when it's on a very light throttle between 2000 and 3000 rpm, I'm not sure if this is a mapping thing.
Still need to sort the gauge pod, I haven't made any progress on that yet.
I've got a lot more used to the lightweight flywheel. I think it doesn't help that I've changed the clutch, which now has a different biting point (i.e. both the way the clutch acts and the flywheel acts are different now), and I've stalled it a *lot* less recently.
Don't think I need any arch rolling guys thanks, I'm quite happy with my Chicanes ! :biggrin:
Forgot to add - it's dyno day today ! :biggrin:
Off to Surrey Rolling Road later, dyno graphs to follow ...

Good to hear things are going well Steve and you're getting used to the clutch and flywheel, it would be a major change reallly in one hit but I am sure you're getting loads of practice in look forward to the results :thumbup1:
Oh, and it hasn't used any oil either yet :thumbup: (I check it regularly)
Need to sort out the engine check light too, which as I described earlier, is just due to a spurious code about an O2 sensor - I'm going to be replacing that with an O2 simulator.
Hi mate good luck with the dyno run do you know the code its coming up with?
mine puts up po135 which is o2 sensor heater circuit
