  1. mines been a c*nt since the day i brought it over 4 years ago, its spent more time sorn than taxed yet has cost me more in the last 6 months than buying taxing and insuring repairing and mot'ing my second car for the last 2 years, and its still playing up!!!!!!!
  2. Cheers guys well happy with the bay looks like its ment to be the IMO, and yes its awsome fun watching the rev counter nearly break the needle everytime it hits the stop at the end always puts a smile on my face lol
  3. alrite guys as i said some pics of the engine bay in its completeness, sorry still no vids as i havnt fiited the oil fitting yet, been busy being drunk and hanging alot haha It will be getting velocity stacks and socks eventually but im focusing on getting it running well in as close to standard form as possible so that i when i do mod it more i can rule out any problems that may occur. so anyway 20v in running form Probably should remove the gti16 badge as its a bit of a lie now lmao... and this is the clearance behind the intake plenum, basically not much. i think when under
  4. not much of a turbo geek but if its a vaccum line going inside the car surely it would be for a boost gauge or something like that?? try blocking it off and running it?? cant see what else inside the car would need any form of vaccum line other than a standalone like a megasquirt or something similar!! probably miles off but my 2pence lol
  5. I've only just noticed their isnt any pictures of the finished engine bay..... MY BAD i will get some 1st thing when it is reassembled tomorrow with the new oil fitting!!
  6. sorry guys no videos my phone camera's crap and been having some tempramental misfire issues that i have been struggling with majorly and i snapped off a oil fitting in the block yesterday but do now have it out but need a new tee peice fitting for it. have now got the car lowered as much as i can on the rear and slightly lower on the front but they have another 10mm + to go :s and its on a set of white speedlines and did the writing in orange on one and now regretting not doing it on the rest of them!! i now need some hubcentric spacers for the rear because of the gt rear beam! and I am now
  7. haha thats cool, I've seen two cars in norwich with the number either side of mine both toyotas, and the other week i saw a micra identical to my 1st car that was the next digit to that aswel! go to show how small norfolk is and how little people get out haha
  8. they could of been from a impreza i have a set of speedline safari's but in 5 stud, and toyota wheels wont fit a civic the centre bore on them is too large, tried it on a mates one
  9. alrite mate i have these fitted in my starlet realy nice and comfy, and great for holding ya in, to fit mine me and a mate just used the seat rails on them, drilled out the spot welds and knocked all four brackets loose so you could move them about. we had to bend the inner rear mount to bolt up vertically and we had to stretch almost all the holes. once they were in the right place we tacked the brackets back took them out and gave them more welds to make them nice and ridged again this is all well and good but if you are tall then the seats dont go far enough back and if you pull them for
  10. Bumpy Or is someone planning on doing it this weekend?? Would be a masive favour, and mesn I can possibly order a new o2 sensor and get the 20v running properly!! :-D Cheers again
  11. sounds a bit like my 20v 4age lol and he wasnt reving that hard enough should have been well past 8k lol
  12. just a small one, i have a 4age 20v (run itb's stock) and i found out the other day whilst trolling the net that the feed to the map sensor has a small pressure equaliser to dampen any irregular flucuations in the vaccum, it looks like a small inline fuel filter or a large one way valve. i guess thats what the vaccum manifold should do but i would of thought that the 4age runs one of them anyway??
  13. yeah u seem to have it all sorted, biggest difference for the price was deffo the ALK, i had that fitted and some t1r's and it was a completely diff car obv was a tad lowered being a sr but nothing special. oh and brakes I've tried greenstuff on 3g disc and they worked realy well but I've now gone for ebc disc with yellowstuff pads and im really happy with them (wud have liked a mintex setup but money lol) now got some bc's but they really need setting up properly i can honestly say i could drive it faster on a nearly stock setup :S
  14. as above im not sure if its posible to do this on a starlet or not but if it is can someone do this for me pleeeeeeaaaaasseeeeee?? the reason being is i have a 4age blacktop in my ep now but i had to use my starlet o2 as the fitting on the exhaust is different to a levin one now if the starlet one gives the same reading ill buy a new starlet one if not then ill bite the bullet and buy a levin sensor and have the exhaust modded. anyway here is a walkthru of how to do it i borrowed off a website who borrowed it off of someone else lol obv this is for a bt 4age so things maybe in a different p
  15. Just a quick one.... 20v is in and running!!! All I can say is the itbs are fooooking LOUD got alot of tidying up to do with the wiring and a dodgey alternater to replace but other than that shes good to go!!
  16. looks like your guna have quite a little animal here when ya get this all sorted looking goooood
  17. haha cheers guys and it had a bit of history of ecu's haha the old 1st 16v smallport was using the stock, the 2nd bigport used the 1st's for a bit then used the stock for that this one will be using the stock auto 20v ecu, (just needs the park signal bridging then obv modding to suit the ep) i plan on getting either a Megasquirt v2.2 or v3 or maybe an emerrald ecu as he (dave walker) lives 1mile down the road lol
  18. Ok so i havnt really made anymore progress yet, still helping a mate build a car trailer so we can use the garage. but heres a few more pics just to keep ya sweet oh just a quick 1, has anyone got a fuel filter bracket for a ep91???? so has anyone got any idea what a toM seat is lol, it came from a supra imported from jdm land?!?! anyway heres a few more with it in a slightly more complete bay. (baring inmind theirs two untucked wiring looms in their atm haha) 20v's and modded obx 16v manifold Yes that is 4 45mm throttles mmm bc's and glanza rims and brakes with ebc yellow
  19. cheers guys the rolla does get much love I've been considering a 2zzge 190 swap (corolla t-sport), got a fooked engine on offer for 150 quid but its my daily so dont want to fuck about with it.......... yet ;) Yeah thats it the levin/trueno, got it thru miguel at newera imports, he has a soft spot for toyotas gave me a good price and sent me some pics of his ae86..... all i can say is FUCK ME haha its sex on wheels lol powerwise stock is around 165hp so with only 18k on it that should be fairly accurate, + it was an auto so it cant have been ragged to much I've been speaking with a crazy
  20. sparky change of plan with the 1st coilys, cudnt unseize a couple of them lol :| but never mind i got new ones and cheers I've kinda fallen in love with the rolla and its the facelift bug eye ok so I've been out the game for a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGGG time now lol but alot has changed in that time , 1stly the 16v 4age is for sale on ebay , 2ndly i have a 20v 4age blacktop (18000 miles from new) in and now doing a bay tuck whilst we do the wiring , fidanza 8lb flywheel , Custom i-tuned 2.5" straight thru exhaust with TTE tailpipe (yes i did have to cut u
  21. holy crap I've only just seen this, makes my bro's accident in his crx look like a fender bender lol how the fuck did u get out of that, u must have had the steering wheel ripped right from your hands
  22. dont supose u still have the front brake calipers?, and if their in good condition discs and pads. assuming they are the 256mm which im guessing they are as its a glanza
  23. Well sooo yeah no real progress on the starlet other than, some coilovers, braces, gt rear axel and some 11.1 pistons for the other engine. but in the mean time i brought a new car, stuck with the toyota but got a 2001 corolla instead, more space and an eco whore so all good. I put the starlet wheels on it after a refurb and borrowed some lowering springs from my bros old rolla gti, front still needs to go down but im saving for the starlet build sooo meh it'll be fine neway here it is
