  1. Oh really, I thought it would be as it was listed for starlet glanza v? So is it just the brackets I need? X
  2. I am getting car sniff tested tomorrow, there is no water in oil so that's a good sign. My rad is fucked I think so have just bought ally racing rad how exciting!! Thank you for all the comments xx
  3. Yeah will do, I've checked one of the plugs and it seems ok. Think I will do a service on it anyway. I work for a car parts company so not a massive problem getting the little parts will get it sniff tested Monday and have it all flushed through before I get anything. Xx
  4. We don't really know. I think it is but it's not doing it everytime I go out. How do I find out if it is head/block? If it is headgasket that's not too bad I can deal with that but if it's block don't know what i will do. xx
  5. Hey! Yep we will change all of the above, we had a boost gauge on it today and it's when it gets to maximum boost that's when it misfires. If you keep the boost below max it doesn't happen. Also engine light is completely off as doesn't even come on when I put ignition on. Thank you so much for all comments. I will let you know how I get on. I also have a coolant leak, it seems as though the expansion vessel fills up and overflows and radiator is loosing fluid (strange) xx
  6. Ok cool. I have someone coming to have a look at it on Monday as he has a GT Turbo so hopefully will have an idea too x
  7. Not sure how to upload a video direct to the site or in fact embed it into the post so I have added a link below, sorry You can just hear the exhaust change. http://s465.photobucket.com/user/elliott_buckner/media/IMG_0033_zps25ff5a7e.mp4.html
  8. No engine management but looks like a sensor is taped up so could be stopping that from coming on? I'll get a picture of engine as the inter cooler is pretty big so do you think that would make it lag? Xx
  9. Will try to upload a video x thank you!
  10. Hi I am pretty new to turbos so dont know much but am having a few issues with my turbo / boost (not really sure) I only got the car yesterday and I have been having this problem when I put my foot down the turbo kicks in and when the third boost light comes on it really lags and makes a funny noise. I am not sure what to do, go and try and get my money back or try and fix it myself. Please give me your thoughts. It also has a Blitz dump valve and a front mount intercooler which has a leak somewhere. This is just my luck really like the car but dont want to end up having to sp
