Big_T-SR

Hey people, thanks for your informed oppinions, i shall be looking into it some more. I have toyo proxees T1-Rs on all four wheels, ive found out during my research is that Toyo deliberatly changed the tyres between T1-S and R. The S has more all round grip like in the wet and good in the dry, but the Rs have been changed to be super effective in the dry but reduced in the wet handling, i dont know if anyone has noticed this. The source for this knowledge is from the Toyo site. As for the eagle F1... don't know, never tried them yet. I was wondering how to improve brakes, i actually was asking ollie yesturday, he mentioned the brake reseviour to increase the pressure put on the brakes, but wasn't totally sure. I currently have 3G brakes with holes and grooves and green stuff pads. How can I make them more effective? Those Toyos looke nice man, but is there some reason i can't see the yokees? T

I c, ollie didnt suggest nething for the 'other mod', but i was thinking about more power, so i stand more of a chance in the straights. Yer Ry, i got the D2s not long ago, was thinking of stealing his engine when he's not looking, as you say he doesn't use it, you wanna help me out? O, i was also going to ask, is there any difference in quality brand or type or do they just do the same thing anyways? T

Hi people, I'm looking into getting a/some strut brace(s), i just want to ask whether it is worth it and how much will it help the handling, but most of all, shall i get it because my car is only n/a and i can already outmanouver many cars in corners, its just when the straights come up the slightly more powerful cars overtake... sometimes. I've been advised to look into it by Joz because he's done the same, but i also have been told that i can spend that money on a more profitable mod by a GT owner who is not on this forum... yet? (some may know him as suspected psycho or ollie) If people can share thier experiences or knowledge, then much would be appreciated. T

hmmm, never really was a fan of the new civic, and i hate the scoop thingy, but each to thier own oppinion though i guess.. Lol, and about that sunstrip... MY sunstrip is too low but we know the guy who does our MOTs. It's not what you know, it's who you know... T

Thanks mate, jus waiting for the next big meet so i can match some names to faces. T

Welcome to the forum Elaine, wow, how many starlet owners are from Ireland. Hope to see ya pics soon. T

Thanks mate. T

yer happy birthday, i think i managed to squeez in a few words before i left to work on msn, but if you didn't get it... Happy Birthday!! T

Hi and welcome to the forum! Hope you enjoy your stay, thats a nice colourful engine bay, any further plans? T

Nah, i have a gold member sticker. You need a card or somthing like that, you only get the card if you pay for the membership thingy. If you got the card/membership then i think you get a discount. ohh my god!!, shelly beat me to it... ;) T

ooo, unlucky mate, i currently have 3 points and i hope i don't get nemore.. was driving 40 in a 30 zone, saw the copper, thought the raod was a 40, looked at my speedo and thought it was fine... obviosly not. *Just don't do it again* in a motherly voice ;) T

Hey man, if the translation doesn't work out, you can always try finding someone with the same manuel in english. T

Congrats! same as me... the best drivers pass second time. ;) T

Ahh, don't we all need a time to chill.... but then again its a business trip, rolling in the dough... so when are you taking us out to dinner or somthing?? ;) Anyways, have fun out there, take it easy! T

We might be able to get more people but TOC has a direct link to toyota hence the gold memeber discount thingies. Lol, im changing my welcome page to a battle of pride ;) T

Thanks mate, i look forward to seeing what yours becomes aswell, seems to be nice so far. T

in my opinion, sticking to the colour scheme of black & red is the best. You could try something sorta new, i saw it on a porshe but i didnt think it would go with my car because the car needed to be red. The wheels itself are red but the face of the wheel is black, as if it jus fell over onto some black paint. Looked really nice, there was a picture of it on google images but i can't seem to find it again... ;) If anyone has any pictures of what im talking about it would help to make me seem less of a phyco . T

Thanks guys for the welcome, but back to the toyota thingy... we simply don't have enough members to attract toyota, because TOC has all kinds of toyota, we only have starlets... ;) Glad i wasn't around when this fude came about, or i'd probably be fired up aswell T

I have always wondered what the levin and truenos would be like to drive, but it might be because you're expecting too much... thats a might neways... And every1 says ive taken so long to join up lol, hasnt been that long... has it? ... ;) T

When it comes down to it, it ends up with what you want mate, i'm also thinking of doing this conversion aswell, but im also considering other power mods not just turbo. Another factor depends on what mods you have done, if you have a bucket seat like mine, you can easily put that in the GT or glanza if you get one. On the other hand if you dont, the GT comes with a nice seat, but you have to admit people the normal starlet and glanza seats are as flat as a wooden board ;) . But whatever you end up with mate, we'd love to hear about it. T

O thanks for the pic, i think i have seen it before when shelly was browsing on here before, when someone did a complete conversion. It looks nice. T

Haha, so many descisions, but all depends on how much money i have and also how much you guys wanna give me... ;) T

O yer, i remember lol, all i heard from it was from Shelly complaining about her lost post count LMFAO! T

Ah, yet another consideration that was suggested to me earlier. Do you know anyone who has done this before? And jus to be sure.. you are talking about the engine the MR2 MK1 has right? ;) T
