  1. Aaahhh right! Thank you for replies? What sort of price am I looking at to replace the rear two? (I would look myself but at work atm) Thanks, tom
  2. Are these easy to get out and replace or does the hub need to come off and the bearings pressed out ?? Thanks, tom.
  3. Yeah mr2 turbos are awsome!! My mate had a 400bhp thing that he built!! Was incredible and he and his dad have a black 600bhp hillclimber they use too!! Would defo have a look at an rx7 too though dude as they're fantastic cars!!!! That twin turbo! But a little more expensive for a good'un! Tom.
  4. Where from mate? Would like some of these but not quite yet. Thanks, tom.
  5. Aaahhh really?? Didn't know that! So my ep82 is an import 91 so doesn't fall under emissions testing.. What if I got a forged engine built and put in?? Would it then be tested for emissions as the engine would technically be brand new and fall under new guidlines?? Tom.
  6. Just another point on the handbrake or parking brake.. I'm guessing its the same on the glanzas etc my on my mk 1 ep82 my rear callipers suffer with the arms on the back of the caliper that attack and reulate the handbrake working.. If you have a good handbrake cabel and adjust the handbrake from inside the car too hard when you pull the handbrake it pulls the arms round.. So you have no handbrake but with good cabels and fully working calipers! Just another thing to check! Tom.
  7. Hey dude! Yeah the plan when I got the car was to make a few up at work but never got around to it.. And the car felt pretty good so wasn't worried and gonna get some different wheels and change all the front brakes etc so probably won't bother now. Tom.
  8. Aawwh man !! Hehehe I would have been pissed too!!! My wheels don't even locate on the hubs!!! Only the wheel nuts! (And they're ally!!!) Haha
  9. Definitely thinking about getting some R888's now!!! Looked on camskill and they're £81 a corner for my 14s!! I really don't think that's bad! Gonna try a set over the summer while the mrs is back from uni! I've always had cheap shitty tyres and want to try some good'uns for a change! Tom.
  10. As above I'm looking for a drivers side window motor regulator and if poss some nice red Trd mudflaps. Thanks, Tom.
  11. Really want some of these but can't find any... Saw some on eBay about a year ago I think. Just wondered if anyone has seen any and if they look good. Thanks, Tom.
  12. So starlets still looking very sad with faded black paint and lacquer peel. Thinking of a vinyl wrap or would be better with a full respray although costly.... Vinyl wrap I was thinking of was carbon effect... What do people think?? Tom.
  13. Is this sold mate as interested! Tom.
  14. Aaaahh right! Do you still get wheel spin with lsd?? Good tyres help I suppose too... And I've got an exceedy organic stage 1 clutch I think.
  15. I really fancy some of these as well!!! where do you get them from? ill be looking at getting them for my wedsport 13s. tom.
  16. Okay, I have a question.. I run a blitz supersound Dump valve which I'm guessing is an external wastegate but what is an internal wastegate?? Tom.
  17. So the starlet has been off the road for nearly a year now in the grandads garage. Booked in for MOT this morning.. Went and fire her up on jumpo leads last night and all ran fine.. On the way to the MOT test station I have totally forgotten how incredible light and capable the little starlets gear box is!!! Such a dream to drive after driving a micra for a year (which incidently massively failed mot tuesday) and my brothers bmw mini cooper s for the past week. A very good car but I can't get over how heavy thee gearbox feels!! Will try and go LSD too in future with more power and get gear
  18. Awwww man they loook sweet!!! Shame I have a double din cd player otherwise I would have had them!! Tom.
  19. X2, Haha definitely haven't done that before! Tom.
  20. Think mines a Blitz, a supersound I think. Haven't looked for quite a while to be honest. Tom.
  21. Hi guys, starlets still off the road but getting her back running this week. I've had a problme for a while, the drivers window the regulator has gone and I need a new one. Second when I got the car the nearside front window had been smashed in an attempt to steal from the previous owner. When I got the car and decided to have a look at the motor etc.. There were no window arms or motor so bought both and set up working no problem.. Then about 2 days later stopped working. Checked the fuse, seems fine. Also, the sunroof used to work but now just tries to open and then doesn't move so is stu
  22. Looks lovely mate!! What sort of power is she putting out?? Tom.
