Finally drove the  starlet into work doday to get cracking with it which was eventful as the passenger calliper was ceased on !

As per title really, pm me pics and price please thanks ste

Still got some cleaning up to do in the engine bay but it’s getting there, waiting for silicone hoses, magnecore leads and new exhaust manifold heat shield to arrive  as well as a new battery and clamp, oh and I’m on the look out for a Corolla inlet and throttle body

Got the glanza callipers stripped ready for paint and

Glanza callipers are the same carriers are different just to allow for the larger disc

Yes I know but no one will sell just the pad carriers so had to buy the lot but for £50 it ain’t so bad and the callipers are in better condition than mine so it’s all good

got the rear decal fitted today and finished fitting the tein springs new dampers and also fitted new kyb front top mounts. Also got some glanza front callipers so they will be going on soon. More to come shortly 

I’ll be buying new thanks though 

Thanks for the replies guys I will give the mtec disks a try 

Anyone using these ? Are they any good ? I’m looking for a track day set up on a n/a running glanza 254 mm, I have callipers and pad carriers. Was looking to use ferodo ds2500 pads and gel lines just unsure of disks.

I was struggling to get hold of glanza pad carriers to run bigger discs and wondered if Corolla ones fit

His is not too loud but nice on boost

Good work mate. Are you doing japfest? 

Not too sure when it is but I’ll probably be away racing with work now the season has started 

Anybody????

rear sits a lot nicer now, still needs to settle a bit though

Bit more progress today got nsf damper fitted with whiteline camber adjustment bolt. Progress needs to and will speed up over the coming week .

Received a Toyota parts delivery today  so hopefully get after it this weekend at some point and finally sort the leakey camshaft oil seal out ! 

Got both the rear dampers built up today as well, the fronts are still waiting for new top mounts to arrive. I need to start bolting some of this stuff on asap !

Also refurbished some rusty under bonnet bracketry and had them painted and lacquered at work

Took the rocker cover into work and gave it a clean up in the blast cabinet and parts washer then gave it a lick of high temp paint and replaced the gasket, plug seals and pcv grommet. Also got some new suspension nuts and bolts from Toyota which were extortionate !

Awesome to see another one being saved!

Thanks, they are getting rare these days so it had to be done.

Hit 100 thousand kilometres today

Got the geometry setup nailed today, still going to put it on the corner weight scales next week when I get chance. The MeisterR’s really have made a difference to the handling the dampers are set midway and are really compliant.

Never seen this build before, looks great i have to say and love the stock looking engine bay but the new turbo kit looks sexy
