Yeah that's what I was thinking but I would like to keep the original seats but it looks like I'm just going to have to make something up as I can't find starlet fitment subframes anywhere.

Bump

Anybody selling a pair of Recaro subframes for a ep91 glanza v? or know where I could get some as I'm really struggling to find a set. Thanks

Have you checked the coolant? I had the same problem with mine when the coolant level dropped down and wasn't running through the throttle body properly and was messing up the idle control valve. There's a plate underneath that you can take off and clean out the valve. Doing that cured mine so could be a similar problem?

that's what i'm wondering, is there any way to test them or is it a case of just fitting a new one and hoping that was the problem?

Pm'd you about the brakes.

Cant find any boost leaks and it seems to hold a steady 1 bar sometimes so cant see how a leak would be intermittent, it would always have a lower boost reading. Not sure what else to check, could it possibly be a dodgy actuator?

not yet, its the first thing I will check when I get chance at the weekend as I haven't had any time to do anything yet. Just I'm not sure its a leak as it goes back up which I thought a leak would just give a constant lower boost pressure.

Greddy e-manage blue. that's what I was thinking but wouldn't it just drop off and stay low if it was leaking? its weird how it goes back up to 1 bar and down again repeatedly.

I've got a ep91 with a td04 turbo set up running at 1bar of boost. When under heavy acceleration I seem to loose a bit of boost. Basically the car hits full boost and the boost gauge reads 1 bar but then drops to 0.8/0.9 and seems to fluctuate between the two very quickly. Feels almost like the cars hitting the limiter but its at around 5-6000 rpm. it doesn't happen all the time seems to happen most when accelerating hard in third gear but then in fourth it will just hold a steady 1 bar. Any help to what the problem could be would be much appreciated.
