  1. Hey dude! That would be my Starlet parked at Joedan. Very simple N/A with a few minor mods. Hope you like it!
  2. Me being an idiot and posting up before searching properly. I guess these are what I am looking for? http://www.eurocarparts.com/ecp/c/Toyota_Starlet_1.3_1999/p/car-parts/brake-friction/brakes/brake-accessories-and-brake-fitting-kit/?107820108&1&ad5228ad8890a0fb283558938a945d8c82c8faf9&000416
  3. Any one know where you can buy some EP91 brake pad retaining clip?? If so, could you please provide a link if available?
  4. Carrying on my thread found in 'Braking' http://www.ukstarletowners.com/topic/102201-clicking-and-clattering-noises/ I've come to believe to that the issues with the strange noises are not from the brakes. I put my car up on stands this afternoon to change the front strut top mount and dust cover and noticed that when I detach the strut from the knuckle and move it from left to right it produced the strange clattering/clicking sound that I had issues locating. I THINK that the sound is originating from somewhere around the inner CV joint. Would anyone have a list of things to check and as
  5. Found it on Mister Auto! Thanks for your help. They are currently going for about £15 quid a per (Monroe).
  6. Hi all, I have an EP91 N/A which requires the rubber boot/dust cover that goes onto the strut replaced. Can someone please advise me as to where I'd get this part from? See below image from Google for ref: Thanks
  7. Not a big fan on the pattern on the seats and door card so that could be an idea. Has anyone done a how 2 on trimming? Anyways that's my introduction made, lets continue this discussion on my progression blog: OB's EP91 Solida http://www.ukstarletowners.com/index.php?/topic/102226-OB%27s-EP91-Solida Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. Got a build thread for your Glanzlet? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. I'm split between interior and exterior at the moment. Also limited as to what I can do before I get shafted further by the insurance. Not sure about keeping the old original look or to bring it up to 2016 and redecorate the entire interior. Change of colour, seat covers, and new front seats maybe? Got any suggestions for bang for your buck seats? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. At the moment I plan to get all the mechanical side of the car checked and sorted. Then I'll move to tidying up the external cosmetic, followed by the internal cosmetic. Hit me up with them suggestions!
  11. You may notice in one of the above photos that the passenger side headlight has condensation. This has since been fixed by taking the head light unit out, getting some air inside it (I use my air brush) which cleared the condensation. I got rid of most of the old sealant around the perimeter as I noticed that there was a gap where the air being blown inside the unit was coming out. The unit was resealed with some standard white silicone sealant. The previous Saturday to this post I got the brake pads and discs changed for the front tires. Below are some photos of the brake change:
  12. Hi all, So a little over a month a go I decided to buy my second car to get started with my second year of driving. I decided to go with a Starlet EP91 Solida (44.5K on the clock) that I saw on Gumtree local-ish to me as an introduction to Jap cars and also an excuse to get my hands dirty with. My day job is looking after production machines within a factory so I felt that it would tie in nicely with the mechanical side of car maintenance and repairs. As this will be a long term project car why not start a progress blog. Will post photos and updates of work carried out etc.. May get
