    GR Yaris Toyota UK remap

    I had the TUK remap done at RRG Macclesfield in June, Richard and team were excellent as always. I opted for heavy steering, faster throttle response and 45/55 F/R (replacing 50/50 on the track setting). I've held off posting my thoughts as I wasn't blown away with first impressions and wanted...

    GR Yaris Lotus Elise

    I had an Elise 220 Cup for c 3yrs before my GRY which I have now had for approaching 4yrs. I really enjoyed Cup ownership but I test drove a GRY on Xmas Eve 2022 and my Elise was sold 4 days later, on Friday 13th Jan I picked up a 6 month old GRY and haven't looked back since. Both fill the role...

    GR Yaris Review - HEL Engine Oil Cooler Kit - C-Tec

    @tonic thanks for the reply and clear explanation, that's really helpful. Pre cooler install, I was seeing oil temps peaking at 115deg which from what I could find online was at the upper most end of the temperature operating window for the oil, so that was the driver for fitting the cooler...

    GR Yaris Review - HEL Engine Oil Cooler Kit - C-Tec

    There does seem to be some noise and opinions but I haven't seen anyone share any data that supports those claims. By contrast, I use TorquePro for every spirited drive I do and I review the data after every such drive. Amongst the parameters I log is engine oil pressure, each parameter is...

    GR Yaris Review - HEL Engine Oil Cooler Kit - C-Tec

    @notfub yep, pic attached of banjo fitting location. The precise cause of the leak was a slight imperfection on the thread of the banjo fitting. Replacement banjo fittings inspected for absence of thread imperfections have sorted it πŸ‘ Edited to add pic @notfub

    GR Yaris Review - HEL Engine Oil Cooler Kit - C-Tec

    Sooo...an update on the oil cooler... The cooler has continued to perform very well managing peak oil temps, but...by chance, I recently spotted a small amount of oil leaking on to the undertray of the car. I checked the oil level via dipstick and that was all good and my data logging showed no...

    Hyundai Ioniq 5 N

    Fingers crossed that the upcoming Ionic 3 has an N model as a little brother in the same mould as the 5N. I could see me in one as a daily alongside the GRY. Is there any information on a 3N in the 5N forum / social world?
