  1. I have a gt spoiler here if you need one mate. James
  2. I can now see my own but nobody else's, yes I'm on full version. Perhaps it will update over time. None the less great idea.
  3. I can't see a link in anyone aboves profiles and can just see the number in my own.
  4. Welcome, does look super clean. If you do decide to go front mount and wanna sell the Arc let me know I could be interested. There's a few Glanza with xbt in the reg does look a familiar car though. James
  5. Don't think genuine ones come with a gauge
  6. Gt bmc are 7/8 iirc, think Glanza ones are 13/16. I'l see if I still have one on the gt after work Amjad as I'm off up the garage later. James
  7. Was sold on here a while back http://www.ukstarletowners.com/topic/91105-5efte-silver-glanza/
  8. I bought a n/a as a daily and was pissed off with it instantly, so slow I got left behind by a smart car going up a steep hill and as for being reliable, obviously the engine will withstand anything but within 6 months as a beater had a list of things needing sorting as long as my arm. You can pick up a Yaris for not much more than a clean N/a these days
  9. Bought an item from him, kept me up to up to date throughout and it turned up exactly as described. trustworthy seller and has some really nice bits for sale. Thanks mate James
  10. Id say around the £100-120 area if without good tyres, no doubt someone will want them to keep the oem look.
  11. Silver gt's look very sexy after a good mop. Not a fan of the rims personally but each their own. Nice car.
  12. Thanks mate yours looks very smart, love the colour and wheels suit it perfectly. Think you had a better deal than me yours being 98 spec, respray looks awesome by the way, wish I knew a good sprayer as it's always a risk sending it somewhere local. There is defo a problem with the threads as even when some are in tight there is movement, got a vice here so will give that a try. Cheers Are they local to you mate or did you have to send them off? that's very cheap I will give them a call if all else fails. Was you at Japday? was sure it was your Charade parked next to another? Had a g
  13. Thanks for that mate, exactly what I needed to know. I will check out your thread for sure. James
  14. Hello there, I have 0 experience at this so could someone clear up a few things for me please? Just wanna know how far do people strip the car down to seal the arches and underneath? Any main areas of a Ep91 that needs special attention that is prone to rust etc? And how much product does it roughly take to do A Starlet in Litres please(aerosol), just the underseal I will buy plenty of cavity wax for future use. Thanks James
  15. Cheers Dan, yeah there are no noticeable dents or deep scratches so hoping the prep work for a respray won't be too costly. Famous last words lol Thanks mate, I still have my Gt shell so hoping I can pinch the stock pipework off there when I have time. Im not prepared to thread lock them tbh as the kit should fit as advertised. Yeah this will be a last resort if ep82 lines are different, cheers for the info Its got 109 kms on it,Trade pay fees are free now mate, I believe there used to be charges for it. I've replied to your pm I will answer your questions there if you don't mind
  16. Yeah I was not happy lol was a month before I went near the car after it got here, the downside of the garage is we live on a busy main road but I love it. just fancied a change from the Toms and haven't seen these rims on a Starlet before, time will tell Cheers Colin, it will never look as good as a silver Gt to me but hopefully I can sort it out I do like them and they look like they have great clearance for big brakes if shit ever gets serious. Cheers Thanks I have not even put 10 kms on her yet tbh Joe, when I drove it to and from mot it I definitely noticed the shorter 3
  17. While I was waiting for the registration to come back I ordered some braided lines from TD, brakes, clutch and abs removal. Me and a mate fitted the brake lines first, had to take the rears back off until I can find something to secure them in place as they just flapped around in the bracket which I feel is poor. Front ones on Then the ABS stuff had to go, takes up way too much space in the bay and looks poor imo. Much better, unfortunately had a few problems with the HEL abs removal kit, one of the lines was way off and would not sit straight in the master cylinder, I sent the one dodgy li
  18. I have since landed another set of wheels so these may go up for sale somewhere down the line unsure yet, of course altogether it costed £2270 including the customs fees etc and then £55 registration and 6 months tax, defo worth doing imo even with the state of the paint the underside is fresh. Cheers mate
  19. Hello Ukso, right time to start a thread for my latest Starlet, I bought a ep82 3 years ago and have had the bug ever since. Here is a pic of my old Gt for any newer members and others who may not of seen it. It was nothing special but I loved it. sadly I had to break it for parts to fund a first home purchase and set about looking for a cheap runabout until I got back on my feet, naturally a Starlet was the obvious choice and this clean Solida came up locally so I snapped it up They are a great daily and very reliable but to be honest I got bored of n/a Starlet power very quickly and fancie
  20. Just bought the Mrs a 2013 Mazda 2, was put off the new model as they are now building them in Thailand
  21. http://www.ukstarletowners.com/topic/102010-race-spec-rocker-cover-zisco-exhaust-and-more/ Great sounding system.
  22. I doubt it's a minter up close for that price, but for a manual that's cheap. someone get it bought. I know of trustworthy agents in Bristol and Southampton if anyone in the South is interested. James
