Never had any trouble with my 4S or my 5S. Do you not have iCloud backup switched on, recover your contacts from there if you have?

Don't worry about it then. -
Auto Ecu in Manual, 3rd Boost light not coming on
DavidAshton replied to karl.'s topic in Electronics
I think you need to go back to basics first. Get a boost gauge and see what is really going on. The boost light's only come on at certain pressures, you could just be boosting a tiny bit less with the auto ECU causing the 3rd light not to come on. I certainly wouldn't take the ECU to bits and start messing! -
Things To Look For When Buying Used Starlets
DavidAshton replied to TeamBombersports's topic in Lifestyle General
OP says he has a £1000 budget. He is going N/A. -
After a mint EP91 n/a. Not too fussed on mileage, must have some MOT and tax and preferably some service history. GLS 5 door preferred but everything else considered. Must be in good condition. Would love something Jap spec like a Carat so if you have anything let me know. Thanks.

My only tip so far is that you need a deep 30mm to get the hub nuts off. I tried to change a CV joint last weekend but my standard 30mm wouldn't reach.

Does anyone have a 98 spec CV joint off the car right now? If so can you measure the ABS ring please it will either be 8mm or 11mm. Thanks.

RW-Developments Backbox for Japspeed / Blitz Mid Section
DavidAshton replied to DavidAshton's topic in Starlet Parts For Sale
Still for sale. I did take a deposit but seems the buyer has dropped out / fallen of the face of the earth. Full payment only now please -
I'd go sealant over wax on a white car. I'm personally a big fan of the Zaino range. Choice is huge though and it depends on your budget, how much time and effort you want to put in and what you are ultimately trying to achieve.

I would do this :-)

Item For Sale: RW-Developments Backbox for Japspeed / Blitz Mid Section Pipework Item Condition & Description: The item condition is as new. It has been used for about 200 miles but before it was used it was fully sealed with Finish Kare 1000p Hi-temp Paste Wax, this means no road grime actually stuck to it, it simple wiped clean with a damp cloth. I will explain why I had this made and why its for sale. In short my last Glanza had the perfect sounding exhaust imo (HKS Hi Silent with no mid box) and I wanted to replicate that noise on my current car. HKS system is around £600 new and a bit more than I wanted to spend. My car currently has a Japspeed Nur Spec copy fitted and I run it with the bung in as it's too loud without so I lose a bit of performance but it's much nicer to drive. I contacted Dean at RW-Developments to enquire about making a HKS style backbox for my current so I could run with full power and have a nice sounding system. So basically we arranged a day a got it fitted. The backbox and pipework was fabricated from scratch and took a good 6 hours to build, nothing rushed everything perfectly put together. Unfortunately it just doesn’t make the type of exhaust note I wanted, now I thought this was due to the backbox but it seems it's more the setup on this car isn't the same as my last Glanza giving the car a much deeper tone no matter what exhaust is fitted. Current car is TD04 last one was CT9. This backbox compared to the Japspeed without the bung is much quieter, it doesn’t make the car vibrate like that Japspeed does but it has a very deep tone with the TD04 kit. I image with a CT9 setup it would be spot on. Compared to the Japspeed with the bung in this backbox is much deeper. Either way I can't cope with the noise, I am passed the whole loud exhaust thing so it simply doesn’t suit what Iwant from my car anymore, it makes more sense for me to run the Japspeed with the bung hence the sale. This will bolt straight onto the mid section of a Japspeed system or a Blitz Nur Spec system. It sits at a nice angle, nothing too harsh, well sized and very JDM. Price: I paid £175 for this to be made from scratch. I understand it is very specific to what it achieves and what car it is compatible with. With this in mind I would be happy to see £100 back for it. Pictures: During Fabrication: As it stands now I have removed it: Payment & Shipping Details: I can ship for £25 via City Link. Paypal fee's will need to be added to final price. Contact Details: PM or Post Below, Text or Call 07708939282

You can use who ever you want you are just being "steered" by the insurance company, they will probably tell you how you get certain benefits from using their approved insurers but it's all so they can send you where they want as they will get certain perks or work done cheaper. If you want to go elsewhere you just have to get a quote, send it to the insurers and they will authorise the repair. Happened to me, I wanted it repairing at Toyota main dealer and they had no choice.

If you are claiming off insurance you have choice of garage, you don't have to go where they tell you.

Rotherham There is quite a few who have joined recently from these parts. I think we should organise a little meet up locally.

Reliable turbo setup recommendations please
DavidAshton replied to Lawless's topic in Intake, Turbo & Exhaust
CT9 again then. -
5w40 is fine for these car's. Ticking noise will be unrelated to oil viscosity.
