definatly my favourite project, so perfect to me, i especially like the small attention to detail like setting the cooler slightly to the left and the silver apexi filter, look forward to seeing the seat fitted too.
-
I picked a set up, brand new for £25 and thats what i sold them for, they dont look amazing and I dont think there a cool enough part to be rare. Thats what they look like fitted anyway.

Got some fresh pics so thought id have a blast for the first time
-
Headlight is only held in with the adjusters as it was so cold when we first did it so we never swapped the holder bit from the n/a headlights, its on the to do list. I could have pushed it back straight but didnt notice it had moved.
-
Was a nice enough day and some clean cars so we tried to make the best of it. I only have a crappy point and shoot, still trying to find what setting come out the best but here is what I got. Craig may have some more pics to post up too. Cant really get the hang of this car photography so any tips would be appreciated.

Well all the white bits are now red bits, the whole body has had a fresh coat too so its super shiney red, although i cant make my camera show how red it is, point and shoots never seem to be able to show red properly. Anyway pics: Needs a few odds and ends sorting out with the wiring such as the fogs and centre reverse lamps. I think next on the cards is skirts painting and fitting and new headlights as the current ones are pretty scuffed. Exhaust has also been sorted now. Ill keep this updated though. Also can a mod alter the title from David's to Adam's as it not my car no mo

standard re- circ blanking plate?
DavidAshton replied to danny_glanza v's topic in 4E-FTE Engine Discussions
Do you mean the hole in the efi pipe? Im sure its a 50p coin people use or might be a 2p coin i cant quite remeber. -
Closed filter was always better when i had the n/a, felt way nippier lower down the revs. Anyway my mate has a k & n pannel filter he never uses, ill ask if he will sell it. Also turbo and n/a are both same.

I think I may have a fault with my abs or is it just the way the starlet system works? I dont think it is because i dont see anyone else mention it. Basically, whenever the abs kicks in I loose a little pedal feel i.e the brake pedal can travel a bit further after over say 6 months i eventually get to the bottom of the pedal i.e cant push it in any further and have to bleed the brakes. Its not too bad normally i can live with doing it every 6 month or so. So with the snow the abs has been going a little mental and has been kicking in all the time for quite a few seconds and my brake pedal ha

Bout an inch and half too far to ever look good

My mates sister is called rebbeca and if keiron drives a burgandy fez thats him. @ Idrees you may have a pm shortly regarding some spray work got to speak to my mate again see what he wants doing, not sure if to go all red or all white or something different.

Well I sold this car about 6 month ago but its with a good friend so still see it all the time.....my mate didnt do too much too it at first, just tinted the rear lights and got a new exhaust oh and had a few bumps in it first car n that......then the other week this came up for sale... For the bargin price of £400 with the headlights.......sugested he got it and that was that.....off to Manchester we went to pick it all up. As the car was a little worse for ware with the few bumps its had we decided to fit it all now rather than get it sprayed up....sort of rat look for now.
-
Its ok now, got it all transported last night, the answer was no. There would have been no chance of getting all that in and a passenger in 1 starlet. We struggled getting it in two starlets. Bonnet and tail gate ended up in my mates car then I had bumpers and side skirts in mine. Wasnt a nice ride back with bumper poking me either.
-
My thoughts exactly haha infact i think im going to struggle getting it all in 2 starlets
-
In the back of a Starlet with seats down do you think id be able to fit a: tailgate bonnet front bumper rear bumper sideskirts all off another glanza and a passenger up front? Any thoughts?

When mine arrived from jdm land it had a strange boot light set up but it worked well, it was one of these long strobe lights that plugged into the ash tray and flashed to the music but you could put it so it was always on. The wire was under the seats and into the boot. Just switch it on and the boot was well lit up. Cheap way of doing it i guess.
-
The gauges are 52mm and its a tight squeeze to get 3 52mm gauges down there so the only option was to custom fabricate the holder part. I got the rear arb as part of a group buy dave at starletgtturbo had going a bit back think it was £130 delivered.....well worth every penny.

Little update of what ive got done over the winter, slow prgress but it winter isnt it. Few months back descovered these gems hidden under the dirt, was still having brake issues with them being shite so after finding these I thought it could only be the pads. So I got some fresh standard pads for the back and these for the fronts. Braking fixed, solved and bloody perfect, pedal feel is spot on and when i need to slam them on its like hitting a brick wall. They do feel like there murdering the disks though but not a fan of the gooved style ones so will see how long these disks last.

My Automobile (work In Progress)
DavidAshton replied to iamlegend's topic in EP80/EP82 Progress Blogs
Another auto or you gone manual for this one? Nowt beats the feeling of having a new starbo on your drive..... -
Its not an advanced or owt just a black Glanza, its on an N plate and has the plate mounted to the right also has a cut out for a fmic but it looked like there was no fmic the other day, has the 96 optional front lip too. See it all over Rotherham but never on here.
-
Off topic but do you drive a black glanza? Keep seeing one round rotherham?
-
My gauge is option too haha..... im begining to think its the gauge then......they do look well nice though dont you think.
-
Got the same thing happening as you mate, the whole lag type thing, it dont bother me that much as i have the normal rev in the cluster. My gauge is a 52mm gauge and i did think it probably looks laggy because its so much smaller that the normal tach but now you mentioned it maybe its not that. Mine is wired from the diagnostics too. Im not too fussed as i only put the rev in till i get the sandwich plate for the oil sorted then ill take it back out. If you sort it let me know...
