I will buy my tickets though here and order a stand pass as they are a little cheaper.
I will just park at track time as I don't have the Starlet anymore but have some track time booked in the Corolla.
So if anyone needs a stand pass after the deadline I will have a spare one, if not you will have a bit more space.

lol I was in the same session and mine were / still are exactly the same!
Could hear them coming loose and flying off all the way home from Japfest!

I thought it was great, I watched a few BTCC vids the day before so I had a decent idea of the layout, didn't realise just how fast the corner onto the old pit straight was though!
My tyres were pretty much beat after a few laps though, went off really quick and then picked up so much crap from the drift cars.

Here is mine, 11:40 session.
I am no track day hero, anything that came up from behind I just moved out of the way! At one point some guys went into the pits and I wasn't sure if I had missed a flag so I slowed down massively. I did overtake some Honda's though! Need to do more track days as it is super fun! I also left the drive back to the stand on so you can see some Starlet's if you get that far!

As if you had such bad luck Amjad!
No red flags on the session I was in thankfully!
Really enjoyed it, will upload my on board video at some point today although I did get overtaken by pretty much everything, I am no racing driver, that has become quite clear to me!

I cant see a price??
It is at the bottom of the add:
Price and final note
Given that the car has been well maintained on the inside and out, the price I am asking for is £4200.

Damn didn't realise we had to meet this early! Seems anything car / motorsports related starts super early.
See you at J27!

I called them today about missing track time tickets, they said they will be ready for email today / tomorrow!
Not well organised at all this year!

Just thought I should update this with some new images as the original ones are now over a year old although it looks exactly the same. The pictures below were taken today.
On a side note I had the car out today for a good run, mainly to keep everything moving and to make sure everything is still running as it should be. I can honestly say this car runs perfect, having not properly driven it for a while I forgot just how nice it is to drive, new owner will not be disappointed.
Also if the car has not sold by next weekend I will be taking it to Japfest so it will be there if anyone wants to take a look / have a chat with me they can. If it sells before I am quite happy to give the ticket to the new owner so they can take it and display as part of the UKSO stand.
Thanks
David

Nothing received?

Bump for this one.

Have the 3 damaged parts in the paint been repaired?
No they are still as per the original advert.
Updated the main advert with current mileage and MOT expiry.

Update
So after not selling the car I ran it for a further 4 months. During that time the input shaft bearing failed on the gearbox so it has had a second hand gearbox fitted since the original advert.
It was then taken of the road at the end of February as a purchased a family car to handle the daily drive and didn't need to keep this on the road. Whilst off the road I replaced all the fuel lines in the engine bay, changed the rear discs, pads and bearings and the rear gearbox mount.
I then put it back on the road a few weeks prior to Japfest 2. During the queue into Japfest the turbo seals went. So after Japfest 2 it was off the road again. Whilst off the road I sourced a second hand TD04 locally. I fitted that last month along with a new radiator a full service and took it for it's MOT.
In the last 12 months it has done a total of 700 miles. With a young family and a busy job I just simply don't have the time to put into this car, drive it and enjoy it as I should. As you can see it has taken me the best part of 6 months to find some time to fit the turbo. It seems a shame to leave it in my garage.
So it is now for sale. I have a daily so no part exchange. I will leave the price as per the original advert as I still see this as a fair price.
Any questions ask away.

Rocker cover for sure, get a proper Toyota gasket, I tried an off the shelf and it leaked even worse.

I used a drill and a tiny metal drill bit, worked a treat.

I have booked Session I - 11:40 - Briefing Time 1040 (£35.00)
Noticed a few sessions had already sold out and didn't want to miss out.
Feel free to join me!

Me too, we all booking onto the same session again?

Once you boil brake fluid it lowers the boiling point so make sure you get fresh fluid with that order.
I would personally look at the celica setup, can work out cheaper than stock and is so much better.

Item For Sale:
RW-Developments / Japspeed Exhaust System.
Item Condition & Description:
This system consists of an RW-Developments rear section with angled backbox, Japspeed front section with middlebox removed. The whole system has covered exactly 526 miles so it is virtually brand new. Fitment is perfect, it sits super central to the bumper recess and is solid, no sagging or anything.It comes with bolts and rubber hangers, I will include some gaskets but they are not the new ones that were originally used with this system so they are not in as new condition, up to you if you want to use them, I would replace them.
There is a slight graze on the front pipe as my car caught the road during some enthusiastic driving, the flex is untouched and 100% peferect.
NOTE: This exhaust system is loud. It has no silencers apart from the backbox. It sounds like a full blown race car, it pops, bangs, spits, roars, burbles and rasps. On full throttle it sounds mental but I found the real fun to be on the overrun as soon as I lifted off the throttle this system came alive.
I can appriciate the appeal of a loud system and did enjoy it but its just not me.
Price:
£275 + Shipping
Pictures:
Taken today:For some reason I dont have any decent pictures from the rear with it fitted apart from these 2 I took on the day i fitted it:

Cammy's Corolla T-sport

Like it!
Just order some torque's for my T Sport in same colour! Seems to be the wheel of choice for Corolla owners.
What size tyres did you go for? Still undecided for mine?
I also have some Apex springs to fit on mine, really well priced and heard nothing but positive reviews, maybe worth looking at those to sort the ride height out!
If you ever sell the TTE backbox let me know!
