My little project - IS200 Turbo - toxo - 17-03-2018
2tongues You could also roll the arches with a metal post like that youtube video :Chair:
That method works perfectly well I'll have you know
And it's scaffolding pole...
My little project - IS200 Turbo - Moley - 17-03-2018
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 ...

looking forward to the graphs Stevie

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:
My little project - IS200 Turbo - steviewevie - 18-03-2018
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.
My little project - IS200 Turbo - edeath - 18-03-2018
Good luck on the Dyno run. Hope the mappped figure is accurate
. How come the O2 sensor is coming up? Should only show if the CAT is not working/present.
My little project - IS200 Turbo - LEX11S - 18-03-2018
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
