  1. Cool how little we talking? Is there any rust on dent etc? And if i buy any chance u can drop it off to my mate in Milton Keynes? Then I can pick it up off him next time I'm down
  2. alright mate, Have you still got manifold? If you have when u say - little dent on one of the runners - what do you mean? sorry I'm a noob and dont know what the runner is, assuming its the pipes but aint sure...
  3. Love the DIY approach mate, especially the sound deflectors... Let us know how it goes. As for me I've come to realise I play my music too loud! its ok if its only me in the car, but when I got a passenger music is drowned by road noise :-( unless its the misses lol
  4. Cheers mate, that's good/encouraging to know...Hope you had a good japfest!
  5. I didnt notice till you pointed it out lol let us know how it goes mate would like to do it myself...
  6. did you do it mate? I made a how2 thread... http://www.ukstarletowners.com/topic/65028-how-2-mesh-your-grill-another-method-admin-not-yet-finished-i-need-to-edit-please-dont-lock/
  7. Still editing...nearly done need to add a pic Ok so this has been done three ways that I know of, here is link to another how2 showing one way. http://www.ukstarletowners.com/topic/3218-how-2-mesh-your-front-bumper/?hl=mesh Initailly I tried to rush this job but I just fucked it up so had to start again! The second time I was patient and it paid off, job looks much better. Below are the basic steps with some things that I learnt along the way... 1. saw out the the slats with a junior hacksaw In hindsight it is best not to saw the vertical ones completely, i.e leave a few
  8. not sure on this one, haven't got the same problem as engine, exhaust etc standard and interior is not stripped. but have a few ideas and did some quick research... are your speakers in rear only? if so it might/should help if you get some front ones as well or relocate rear speakers to front door cards (assuming there too big for standard place...here is a how to i was looking at http://www.ukstarletowners.com/topic/9564-how-2-fit-optional-door-speaker-pods/?hl=speakers, although I suppose if you have loads of road noise this might not help too much. In america corning 703 insu
  9. sorry ryan, regretfuly not going to make it, the umeployment centre made me sign up to a course on the thurs and fri on 'finding and getting a job' - it would of made sense if they put me on in feb, when i signed on, but then again nothing the DWP do makes sense... Its in leicester so will be too far away. will make next south wales meet, car seems to be running ok now and I carry a spare alternator belt just incase :-)
  10. I pm'd you about this and strut??? got a strut now but would be interesterd in this still... you have my number on pm so if you want to sell it to me send me a text
  11. cheers mate, just about to seal it... 3 months! shit, will make sure I get some gloves on, cheers mate Cheers and no worries mate, best place for it :-)... There are a couple on here http://www.ukstarletowners.com/topic/42153-mesh-grill-request/?hl=%2Bmesh+%2Bgrill and this is my all time fav starlet http://cars.bazoom.com/uk/gallery/1844-toyota-starlet-ep91 pics up over weekend...
  12. cheers amjad, I bought some gloves and bought my mesh black... Gonna do this tomorrow, I took the bumper off to fill and paint and noticed a ridge that I can put seal/mesh in to, so gonna try that first because I really want the mesh to stuck to the bumper so I can take it off when needs be.
  13. Hey Raffa Did you decide on a colour and get them done, any pics? I've put mine off untill the weather is a little warmer because I'm gonna refurb myself.
  14. cheers man, I was hoping you'd see this... did you clamp it?
  15. Hi So I've cut the grill on my n/a and want to add mesh but wondering how best to do it. I have thought a few questions please. 1. Do I need to apply pressure with a clamp to make things stick to tiger seal? Then where to put it? 1. Thought of sticking it to metal bar in front of engine, as this would make it easy to clamp grill on while tiger seal sets and also there is a large surfae area to stick it to? ... but i'd rather not do it this way as I cant take it off. 2. Shape mesh and stick it to grill direct but thinking this will be hard, as there are only a few mm's of grill edge to
  16. cheers man, when he said it I was thinking he meant just injectors but he reckoned it'd be the same with manifolds. but wasn't sure to believe him because surely the manifold only effects physical gas flow, am i right in thinking this?
  17. I thought he was but wanted to check and also didn't want to tell him he was, i was in his valley not mine ;-) Your cars looking nice mate
  18. Want to do this mod myself. I went to a breakers the other day to buy manifolds and injectors from a corrolla but they'd crushed the car! One of the guys there told me I shouldn't go messing with manifolds and injectors, I told him engines are the same and loads of people have done it, but he siad its no good and reckons i'd have to potch about with the electronics/wiring and shit to do it propa...and if I didn't it would eventually fuck the engine. What do you all think about this? Is he speaking shit or is there a bit of truth in his opinion? I still wanna do the mod, but need to know if
  19. cheers, good price for my life lol Thanks for the pointer. Luckily I had my stepfather helping and he knows what to do, we used a crow bar. but think he may of done it a bit tight as the garage took it off to have a look and now its not screeching...figers crossed problem is sorted.
  20. sound mate, well let us know if you dont shift them
  21. do those rear seats fit an ep91 as well mate? and Is that modified bracket a complete hole like an O and not a C ? hope that makes sense...I'm a bit dubious putting in modded seats because I'm a paranoid sort of person
  22. They couldn't see anything and screeching seems to of gone, hoping it was just a weak or over tight belt. only time will tell. As a bonus they fixed my blowing exhaust fro free - wasn't looking forward to doing that with my standard wheel jack, extreme mechanics lol
  23. good luck with fitting and that mate, if you dont get a wiring harness you might find the link below useful and if you dont use a harness make sure those wires are securely fitted together. http://www.ukstarletowners.com/topic/58953-headunit-wiring Also if you do decide to go with the amp make sure you earth that properly onto bare metal, I say this because when I bought my amp someone was in the shop who'd blown theirs up because they earthed it to a painted surface.
  24. still missing the point...if you agree that we all have different opionons why are you laughing at mine, its belittleing, which is ironic because you dont even relate 'turn it up' to 'turn up the gains'. I also wasn't aware that rmsnoel wanted an award winning sound system, if he does then my advice would be different, infact it would be along the lines of yours. It would be nice to have a conversation rather than a battle mate, then prehaps we and other people can both learn something from each others opinions. But if you want to continuing trolling me then...
