Thanks mate. Yeh does seem pretty hard to come by and I can't see the plastics being easy source but I'll probably spray them and re trim the fabrics to match. I've got a load of stuff on order from various places so just waiting for it all to turn up! By the end of next month it should have:

Late spec front and rear seats

Crystal headlights

All belts including oil, filter and water pump

Custom stainless back box with genuine tte tail pipe

Wind deflectors

And maybe the plastics sorted along with a deep engine clean if I get time

Ah righty, shame as I would've snapped them up. Glwts

So are these for a glanza mate?

Ha no mate I plan to keep this for a long time or at least until bean sells me my old gt4 back ;)

Love all jap but Toyota is where my heart lays

No mate the guy for some reason still hasn't taken the advert off eBay

Really appreciate all the help by the way so thanks everyone. Pretty clued up with gt4's but not as much with the starlets!

Jesus ha ha that is an epic reply, thanks. Had no idea that there was such a difference! Think I'll just go for the emanage and Corolla mani for now then

I might be able to get hold of the import na ecu so would just run that for a start. Was it just the intake and Ecu that was different in the import cars? Seems like easy cheap gains for a start and I know 90hp wouldn't exactly set the world alight but it's better than 76

Nice one cheers buddy. I'll be getting an emanage blue in the future so that should maximise the gains as I've heard these uk spec engines are easy to get near 100bhp. Plus then when I bolt a turbo to it I'll already have the Ecu sorted. Are there any alternatives to the emanage blue price and performance wise?

Is it a straight swap? And does the Ecu self learn?

Is it worth me getting a Corolla Inlet mani? And is it a straight swap?

Will the cooling panel fit an NA??

Thanks buddy it's v v well cared for and is going to get treated to a good going over next week- all service parts, belts, cambelt kit, crystal lights and I managed to track down the late spec glanza seats like I said I won't be going over the top with anything, the idea is for everything to look like it was factory fitted

Oh and the exhaust is hopefully getting done too. I'll update with pics when things start happening

Got answers on all of the bove now thanks

Are you suggesting that the engine in my starlet isn't as thoroughbred as vtec ha ha ;)

Hmm that's worrying if it was meant to be a track day oil though and meant for that purpose. Like I said though I was running my 403bhp forged gt4 on Halfords stuff and it was perfect. It did get changed every 3k though

Defo the way forward do you ever use Halfords oil then?

50% off bulbs and over a third off oil. I used to run my forged gt4 on Halfords oil so surely the starlet would be ok?

Thanks for the replies guys, i've got a trade card so will get some this weekend will keep it on semi synth i think.

Hi all, i'm looking to do my own filter and oil changes on the SR and was wondering what oil people would recommend? A friend has suggested 10w40 semi synth.

Thanks

Jase

What oil is everyone running in the na's? I've been recommended 10w40 part synth by a friend. Also was wondering if servicing parts are the same for the glanza and na's such as timing belt kit, water pump, oil filter, crank seal etc? I'm going to get all that done for peace of mind

I've found a nice pair of seats and a dash but that's it so far. They don't come up often do they. I know mate and that's what I've done but if I got a rough one I'd only want to make it mint I guess

Thanks v much for the nice comments I've been searching for a good one for ages to be honest. Best keep the fogs then hadn't I ha ha.

Spoke to a friend at work today who's got another friend in exhaust fabrication so hopefully getting it booked in soon for a stainless back box with the tte tail pipe welded on.

Was looking through the history properly and it has every old mot and v5 too. I feel I might have got one that's too good as I drove to tescos today and parked miles away from anyone else!

Oh yeh I mean they can obv be had for dirt cheap and I was considering it but I wanted one that had good bodywork as I don't know anyone in the trade so would have to pay top wack. Mechanical things don't really bother me within reason as I'm a mechanic. But because I wanted a mint bodied one it kind of means that the mechanical stuff is sorted too I guess.

I just don't know if I've dropped a bit of a bollock because it's so nice I worry about where to park it etc ha ha. The interior is dreadful isn't it but I keep thinking I might just keep it completely standard so depends how I feel over time.
