Advancing makes top end power better, retarding gives more torque lower in the revs. within certain parameters, basically a trade off for what you want

Take it you love your job, if you can get in a job that includes your hobby it doesn't feel like work

Really love the colour been following the build thread for awhile now

Thats a rare colour though

Great start, here was mine with the same wheels but just without the centre caps

Nice start to this, looking forward to seeing it progress

Yer and thanks, I did receive the day before my old was smashed into, I a load of service parts so I'll just put them on this.

Same plan I've had in my head for last two which is making look how i want, and slowly do bits to the engine and see what i can get out of the 4efe

So this is now my third Starlet, The first one was a White SR which I put in a bush but still drove it for 3 months after it happened. (Build thread: http://www.ukstarletowners.com/topic/84287-petes-white-sr-build-mr2-throttle-body-dynoed/) Then I had my second one which was turquoise but was unfortunately hit head on after the other person hadn't given way on a round about (Build Thread:http://www.ukstarletowners.com/topic/92700-petes-second-starlet-in-turquoise/) So now this is the starlet I picked up yesterday. Paid abit more than I did than the other two but its worth it. Its so unbel

Problem is that I'm under 21 so it can be hard but I been told to ring again tomorrow to see if they can insure my new car, yer it is annoying that I'll lose the time I've put in the car and I'll probably still lose money. Way to deal with it is to get it sorted and more on.

If I can get the car would anyone want any of parts that I'm not keeping myself so the engine etc?

well see if I can get the car back depending on what they say but failing that going to see if I can get the wheels and suspension back at least. my policy doesn't have courtesy car but I've called them to do see what I can do/get and they may be able to get a hire car and cover the costs of it but waiting to hear back.

The light blue colour and I need a car to get work but currently can't anything from my insurer until the claim is taken off hold as the car needs inspecting. So can't insure the new one or get a rental from from them. Could get temp cover but it is bloody expensive.

Went and picked up another starlet today but can't insure it until this car is evaluated so kinda carless atm which sucks.

Didn't know that may have to look into it

Got most of them back but the two most expensive ones have got to stay on for inspection

Chassis bent so insurance is going to write it off

Really hate to post this but unfortunately today on the way to work I was involved in a head on after the other person failed to give way to the right on a roundabout

This sounds good

Nice! Been looking for one locally for awhile with no luck, rarer not to have power steering than do. Was the rack the only thing you had to swap or the column etc as well?

You can also use na brake lines I believe. Most na's don't come with abs

Is that rack from a ep82 or ep91?

I'm in!

Thanks, if its the way to do it there is another thread on here that I believe would be easier to do. http://www.ukstarletowners.com/topic/96512-5t4r7et-nas-sportif-turbo/ that's the link for their build thread first post scroll through the pictures you see it. I have had to do mine another way as the person who had done it before had done it a different way and I wanted to do redo it and make stronger. There are little tabs just under the headlights they are different, small on the na and large on the glanza, so you have to go past them with the na part of the bumper or remove the tabs. Now t
