Oh hello sailor. And I love the new logo, were the optional Glanza stickers using the same layout? The ones that went on the side of the car. TRD ones perhaps?

Staffers, you do realise you are all getting copious amounts of cider from me next JAE? EDIT: It feels so good to have a sig again :DDDDDD

Due to me finally driving the GT, this has now found a new owner! Hey may be signing up to here, may not, we'll see, but he said he didn't have too many plans, and was just after a reliable runabout. I know his brother, so I'll be able to get updates on it

I'm like a kid in a sweet shop with only 10p "But I want moreeeeee!" Defo going to have to sort creep though, it was loving the cold air a little too much tonight. Will keep it steady going for now, and start looking into CT9 hybrid kits. First on list is new engine mounts though, clunk clunk, drivers side is shagged. After that it'll be coilies, or at the least, spring and strut set up, as the rears atm are fucked.

Hai Luke

Lol'ed at the brief ghost of a post above mine ;)

Oh shit, never knew you were Simon Zeb! Anyway, this can only lead onto better things! I was left quite disgusted by what a certain person had been doing and saying behind it all as many of you staffers were saying at JAE. Good ridiance I say.

Got it back home just now. Certainly picks up a lot better

As I said at JAE, looks totes better on the new rollers! And that colour... I may have to steal it for the Volks

Bloody hell, it was panic mode activate yesterday it seems! Glad to see it's all sorted now! And the name 'Flaminsam' could have been apt if it had gotten worse Hello Kitty gearnob sounds hardcore, do ittt. Saw this at JAE, but totally forgot who it belonged too, sorry Don't think I even saw any of you lot.

Well, after checking every single sensor going and finding they're all fine, as well as trying two sets of leads we know are good, my mate thought he'd whip off the cambelt cover and see what the craic was. It was 3 teeth out Poking around lead us to the tensioner spring being weak as fuck, and we reckon that it must have skipped when I've been getting used to the ORC and accidently let it out too quick when setting off (jerked the engine). Belt looked a bit ratty as well, so new belt and tensioner spring are on the way!

I remember this knocking about on TGTT back in the day, when he got it sprayed there were soo many negative comments

That didn't last long Good to see you back dude, can't wait to see more of the car and that cage!

Amazing!

Really clean! What wheels are those anyway? Wedsports of some kind?

Sefton, look for the grey diagnostic box under the bonnet, either near the rear bulkhead, or next to the fusebox. You need to bridge the connections TE1 and E1. There should be a sticker on the underside of the diagnostic port lid telling you which ones TE1 and E1 are. Once that's done, switch ignition to On, and look for the engine light flashing. If its a steady flash of about 0.2 secs between, then there's no codes. If there is a code, it'll flash indicating the first digit, wait for half a second, then flash the second digit. For example, flash - 0.5 secs - flash flash, would be code 12.

Looks fantastic, hope it's on soon!

Quick update on the GT. As most of you know, it finally made it to JAE! Unfortunately it developed an erratic idle while it was there. Going from most of the topics and UKSC and on TGTT about what causes it, the most likely culprit seemed to be the air valve solenoid jobby on the end of the inlet manifold. After cleaning it, it still didn't solve it, and it definately wasn't working as we couldn't hear it clicking. Got a new one and fitted, and the same problem was there but not as pronounced, with the valve definately working now (from the sound). Me and my dad believe the car is misfiring now, and the leads are probably most likely to be at fault as the plugs are brand new NGK Iridiums, and having a new dizzy cap before JAE. Every minute or so, the engine sounds like its running on three cylinders for a second, if that, before returning to normal. Going to take it to a mates garage on Sat to try out his two sets of leads and see if it is that, and if it is, get hold of a set. Any recommendations for which brand to go for? I've heard some grumblings about the Magnecors breaking, but is this a widespread problem? Another mate who doesn't use the forums says he might still have some Ultras lying about from his old Starlet, are these a good brand? Thanks to Adam for these pics :

Didn't know you were leaving us then, I would have given you a brohug

Would do if I had the money tbh.

Remember you telling me about this at JAE mate, clean as!

Brilliant weekend, sorry I didn't speak to more people, as it stands now I'm still in the dark trying to match faces to names from the photos Sunburn is bloody killing me now though

Which one?

Just... what can you say. One of the ultimate GT's, for sure. Didn't speak to you much Alan I'm afraid
