Looked like he had some plans for the car, manual for more power?
Yes... I don't know exactly how much power the car was making after his engine swap but I am sure it'll be far more than my original 270whp. Plotting in manual tranny alone can easily increase 30-40whp.

Yah! initially when you mentioned owner died, I too thought he was speeding, until I read that it was not his fault....
Precisely... I also got to know he already has an Airtrek but a NA one. I guess he was eyeing for the turbo version and bought mine from the dealer I traded the car in.

Well I bought an Airtrek Turbo at Auction in Japan to import to the UK a couple of days ago.


So I’m looking forward to reading all the old posts on here to keep me entertained during the 2/3 month wait for it to arrive. [emoji4]

Repaint the Trek with Nardo Grey with Black hood .

Now I need to find the hood scoop plug.

Next will be either lowering the front end and perhaps spacer all around.

Sorry for delay replying as I don’t seem to be getting notifications...

About £3,400 (GBP) after import taxes.
Then £500 service and fluid changes including full alignment and setting up the coilovers.
But we then found the gearbox has eaten the wave spring* so it’s having a secondhand one fitted now, another £1,000. And I’ve still not driven it yet.

Registration and a years road tax is £330.

Still cheap enough but not as good a deal as I’d hoped for. Fingers crossed replacement trans is good.

Hi Guys, my anme is Ravin and i am a new owner of a 2005 pearl white Airtrek Turbo, all stock just with 18 inch rims.

Is there any whatsapp group, will be good to keep in touch. Also my car is very stock , fuel consumption is crazy im using
Ron97 , RM70 = 170km

I am from KL , any mods i should consider. I am thinking of,

1. BOV vent to atmosphere type (any recommendations)
2. Reflash ecu, Where to do this? as i heard it improves performance and fc

Plan to keep my car stock performance wise, no FMIC or bigger turbo plans for now.

All feedback is much appreciated guys, thanks

auto? turbo? heavy right foot?

my manual turbo forester also getting around 200km for rm50 of ron95....driven relaxedly...


fc goes down the drain if i gun it at higher speed...


BOV...look for 50-50 type... fully vented wont do good to car tuning....

Hi Guys,

Yes its a turbo Airtrek, 4G63T , 5 speed automatic.

Ok if FC isnt an issue , then its fine, im using RON97, can this car run RON95 , want to verify this as i notice most people using RON95.

BOV - what is the downside of running a vent to atmosphere BOV, anyone using this type of BOV please advise.

Thanks

What fuel does your manual state? My VR runs on Ron95 but Petron or BHP only, but I do mix with Ron97 alternately.
BOV to atmosphere because of the pressure release sound......lol
