  14. So I have driven the car to southern Spain for a holiday, drobe the car for two 14 hour sessions and it didn't miss a beat. Driving through the Spanish mountain reigon was an experience...so many tunnels! Here's a few pics so far

  17. Haha will do, should be fine, got all manor of spares and stuff. The breakdown cover was with RAC it was about 170 and had unlimited recovery back to the uk.
  18. I'm heading out to Marbella in the starlet on Monday night. Paid for European recovery. taking fuel and tools Incase anything happens. Hopefully it makes it!
  19. Small update, had a few issues at mapping. Still had this top end rattle, stripped the car down only to find the head had 4efe valve springs and the valves where very poorly seated. Either way, fitted some tuning developments valve springs, reseated all the valves, and reshimmed. it may have had FE cams in it so we swapped my old fte cams over. The car sounds and drives so much better. Going back in for mapping tomorrow and hopefully make some decent power. In fairness to the engine builder we sent the head off to a machine shop to be sorted, so just bolted it on when we got it back. This time
  20. Right has anyone fitted these? As per starlet isn't on the list of cars on the instructions, any ideas on how to fit?
