  1. Hit a little problem with the 4afe throttle body as I use the spindle I was hoping to use and if I remember I ruin the the original getting it part. No pictures but went to my scrappy the over day and there was a bug eye corolla 4afe down there so had the throttle body as its the same as my other one. However, then I realised the tps is different to that that the older one uses 4 wires and the newer corolla uses 3 wires which actually is the same plug as the starlet wiring so may be on to a winner. So possibly doing all the work to the other body was a waste of time but if I hadn't found a pro
  2. Have a look a 4afe throttle body 5mm bigger and depending on what year I just found out the sensors different year to year/ generation of corolla , I have started doing one on my build thread and I also did a sw20 mr2 throttle body on my old starlet but adapted the manifold to do that.
  3. Always good logic there, I would, if you got it all off you may as well as its all off, if you don't and it starts leaking or breaks you'll be kicking your self
  4. Sounds like something is shorting out and causing it

  10. Updating Again this time more to do with the throttle body and inlet manifold. Designed this spacer in Solidworks as the manifold doesn't cover the bottom of the throttle body so this will bolt in between, using two gaskets which I'll make. Made it, via laser cutter The holes line up perfectly so no step between the throttle body and the spacer. Bolted to the manifold will grind away to match the plate but will need to put a line of weld around the outside of flange so it can made to the same diameter or other wise the grinding will break through and the flange may fall off.

  11. I hope my front bumper comes out that good. And mine will be turquoise aswell
  12. Really clean was good to see it at jae, love the dials in it
  13. I brought these and as i changed my mind on the interior lights i took the leds apart them put three together and made my own 501 bulbs as my side lights
  14. Brought these as they turned out purple and not pink as from you can see in the image http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/T5-74-286-Pink-1-LED-5050-SMD-Dashboard-Side-Light-Sidelight-Bulb-DC-12V-6pcs-/181817678439?hash=item2a552d9a67
  15. I had to do it one my white sr didn't do it on this one brought it like it, but I found heating the strips up then with a bit of thread or fishing line put it uder at one end of the plastic doing a sawing action then get enough away from the body to get a grip on then just heat the area at the bit its just about to come off at and pull. then go over the sticky left over bit with tar remover or something but after using it wash the car or at least the area in which the tar remove has been in contact with.
  16. Look at JD tuning in the traders for the bonnet lifters (http://www.ukstarletowners.com/topic/80234-jd-tuning-bonnet-lift-kit-fits-ep82-ep91-and-paseo/), I changed the the bulbs, there 286 bulbs in the cigarette, heater and dials, there are also 501 bulbs in the dials and the switches are t3 neo wedge. Will give a little advice purple can be hard to find/match sometimes.
  17. My old sr would emepty its self weekly cost a bloody fortune
  18. Cheers, in person even now it looks like it going to work
  19. Damn just realised I didn't get a picture with the bonnet closed with the sides welded :/
