N12 Turbo Forums

Hey Sash, What type of coil did you end up buying? And did the new temp sensor fix the problem? I'm having a fairly similar issue where my one idles fine but when you out a load on it, the engine just struggles. Hopefully you have the answer i need

any updates sash? after reading this thread im pretty keen to find out

Hey oregoncoastimports how'd you go fitting up the gtir springs? Was it difficult?

I would love to see some shots of it...

Keep up the good work

Have you managed to take any pics shane? pretty keen to see.

I wonder if rear sway bar or strut brace would be better. Strut brace stops body twisting where the sway bars stiffen suspension. I've done rear sway bars in other cars before and they make a world of difference. SO just to confirm, what et parts would be needed to ad sway bars to an exa? I'm guessi...

i no this is an old thread but no point starting a new one for the same thing.

is it possible to fit a rear sway bar to an exa if they never came with one?

I might add that I bought some things from zoomzoom and would recommend him. Pauls a good guy overall as well.

The GZE box is one of the strongest FWD gearboxes ever made. See here for pics of the internals - http://www.mx6.com/forums/fe-dohc/236060-toyota-gearbox-thread.html Also note in the first set of pictures we are comparing the Toyota gear sets to Mazda h-series gear sets. Which are even bigger than ...

I forgot to mention, that this is the same guy that connected a corolla 5 speed lsd gearbox to the FE3 engine.

Hi reply is; "Hey mate Mostly stock engine, it has low compressoin pistons in it. 8.1:1. But they are not forged. Besides that everything is 100% factory. So tell him to go ahead and boost it up! It will last fucking ages if he keeps the boost low, i'm running 20psi though." Didn't mention...

Hey MADNESS I'm pretty sure he did, from what i've been told the come standard with forged pistons or very similar.

I'll ask him and let you know

this may be of some use to you



its one of my friends cars with an fe3 turbo pushing out 240kw, but done alot of work on it since then. Hes using a tdo5 turbo (evo I think)

Hmm I would use a wrx vf22 turbo. the sti turbos work very well in the mazda engines.
then again its also because there's less to modify on them to fit when compared to a garrett/nissan turbo

The nipple on the T/B should run ONLY to the small nipple on the charcoal canister. Do not have the fuel reg teed into this line, it will cause high fuel pressure on idle! Damo Damo, what should I connect the fuel reg, boost gauge and BOV into if I shouldn't connect them to the nipple on the thrott...

you still having trouble with it??? whats the progress???? STill no luck, it idles ok I guess but I can tell that its chewing through fuel. Boost gauge stays consistantly at around 10-12 vacuum so its not so bad. I don't think I have a big air leak I'm just not sure if I have my lines connected to ...
