@@FullBoostJ4 hey I added u on FB again, i made a new account when I took down my UA-cam channel, about to start on lexelmeano again soon, coilovers and alot more weight reduction lol
Thanks mate🙂 she's looking a bit rough at the minute, trying to get loads done at once. Thanks for the sub👍👍 check out the socials in the description for the latest shenanigans.
If i front mounted it I'd have needed custom exhaust manifolds, and possibly had to lose air con or other ancillaries. Plus there's not a lot of room in therefor all the pipework. And then there's the extra heat generated. It was just simpler to put it back there, I could still use it while I was installing it, the engine doesn't run any hotter,I can pull the turbo off in minutes and still use the car, its sounds cool, its not anything like as laggy as you'd expect and because the turbo runs cooler it doesn't need water cooling or an intercooler. Thanks for watching 👍
Great to see the rear mount working well! I'm sort of in two minds about your plans. Of course it would be cool to make an apocalypse car, but I feel like the idea of it might be better than actually living with it and owning it. It's such a well engineered car from standard, it would be kind of nice to fully evolve and develop the rear mount and keep the car in use as a tidy survivor + turbo quick road car. Either way, I will be keeping tabs, thanks for the great vids! Cheers, Mike.
Thanks Mike🙂 if it was a mint car I would definitely go with a super clean look and get it bagged. But then that's what most people do with a big body car. Its getting to the age where its going to need welding underneath. I think going in this direction is something fresh and interesting. Practicality is a big deal, I am thinking that anything i do can be reversible or maybe even seasonal and dual purpose. I've got tonnes of spares including decent panels stored away so whatever I cut up and change I can replace with a nicer stock panel. Any exo skeleton pipework or bars will be bolted on in stock locations and as long as I don't weld on the rood or rear quarters you should never notice 🤣 Thanks for watching👍
Thanks Jaybee, I will be getting it on the dyno when I find the time if its making 300 ponies ill be happy, can't ask for too. Much with stock management I guess. Thanks for watching 👍
@@FullBoostJ4 please do 🙏 the isn't confirmed Dyno stats on the stock ecu out there.. yeah 300 isn't bad considering the internet says u can get about 350-400 on the stock ecu at 7 psi 🤔 I would be happy too with it
Awesome build I’ve had 3 430’s...4 98-00 400’s and just got a 96 for $1,000 in rust free az the cars got perfect factory paint and interior 313,000miles. I was gonna do a build similar to this are you running The factory VVT motor? Are they forged internals like the earlier 1UZ?
Hi Jimmy, sounds like a good motor 👍 mine is a 96 second gen non VVti motor which isn't as strong as the earlier ones. But holding 6lb boost pretty good. I'm very happy with the set up and it's proving reliable. Then pump is nice and quiet and I've not need to alter the pressure since fitting it. Thanks for watching🙂
I think all in i spent about £1700 but if I was doing it again I could easily save a chunk of that. The engine was a skinny rod 96 engine and I made no changes to it apart from a Walbro 255 fuel pump, and an old school FMU after the stock regulator. Everything has been done with the cheapest eBay had to offer. That was part of my build plan, source everything as cheaply as possible from ebay. Even the wideband, which still uses a decent Bosch sensor. I've had to fabricate (at my poor skill level) everything myself with lots of trial and error before finally I've got something that's starting to work as I wanted it to. Still need a trip to the dyno to let someone who actually knows what they're doing to give it the once over and see what kind of numbers its making 🤣 Thanks for watching 👍
Rear mount turbos sound so cool, totally unique noise!
Some have said it sounds like an old school V8 scania 🤣
Lol run that no bumper no trunk lid bro, glad to see you are still doing it, lexelmeano broke the driveshaft coupler the other day😂😂
Thanks Jeff👍 failed driveshaft coupler sounds fun! Was it a launch that did it?
@@FullBoostJ4 smashing the gas on the highway at about 90 and just heard bang! Lol

Do whatever you want with it, it's an interesting build so we'll watch no matter how it goes. Very cool concepts
Thanks Evan😃 nice to get some feedback👍 thanks for watching😎
Mate, I parked next to you today in Cleethorpes tescos! Absolutely mad car you have, glad I could see it in person! Good work man.

Just wondering why you didn't put the turbo in the front nice car tho

@@FullBoostJ4 ok makes sense keep up good work and good luck

What wideband is that?
Its from LD Performance,
ldperformance.co.uk/product/wideband-controller/
Wasteland drift car
i would definitely sub for a wasteland ls400 drift car
