  1. Plans hopefully to be completely this month or the next. Boot mount battery: Lego brick battery box motorsport battery Battery cut off wires DIY earth kit Swirl pot mounted in spare wheel well: Ebay 2 litre swirl pot Inline fuel filter fuel lines Facet red top pump as the pot feed bosch 044 main pump Fuel regular (about 1bar) for the fuel return into the pot Custom mate metal cover to keep the fuel away from the occupants
  2. I know mate that's what I always got to remember!! I lost a bid on a nismo boost gauge. I bidded £110 and made me realise that I need I stop with all this jdm parts crap and get the car done! I bought a BG snap off boss as well and the quality of them is amazing compared to the cheap eBay ones
  3. haha mate I will never give up! I even find the hunt for the parts fun but I wallet hates it! It's all worth it. Need about another £1000 worth of little bits and then the rest is just the engine work. Just trying to think how I can convert my clutch to a fluid one as I got a cable clutch
  4. Did a bad thing and crunched the numbers for how much roughly this build has cost me so far. Quite scary but all worth it.
  5. Looking good mate! I import stuff almost monthly from japan haha. I have seen your car around before in the micra club. I got bored this weekend and started to paint the inside black with hammerite. All my interior is staying except for the rear carpet and rear plastics as it needs ditching so I can run a cage. Also going to be putting the swirl pot and fuel pump in the spare wheel well, I will then make a plate to cover all the stuff on in the well so its a fire shield. Main reason behind doing that is so I cant be moaned for having a "fuel cell" inside the cabin. I Also converted the boot
  6. Yeah its an awesome piece of kit and cost me next to nothing. Shame I cant wire it into my clock on my car though as I will have to fiddle about with circuit boards and that. I might just buy a spots stop watch and wire it into that or just wait for a nismo lap timer to pop up for sale. I could ofcoure use the buttons for other things.
  7. I said I wasn't going to buy anymore nismo stuff well I lied.. Nismo pedals sourced. Only going to use the throttle pedal as it will help with heal and toe. They are automatic pedals though so it is lucky I only need a throttle pedal. Nismo cigarette lighter sourced as well. Also got a genuine super turbo hood scoop coming so I can make a super turbo bonnet. I will also put one of these vents in the bonnet as well. Abit more cold air to the air filter. Also made a jap spec boot lid today. Please excuse the tacky kanjo sticker. Will be covered up with my number plate. Also
  8. Loving the ps13 mate I'm an old nissan nut which is why I have a k10. Very unlike the 90s nissans to have wire rot problems but I suppose those wires are in the arche and more open to elements
  9. took it straight off after the picture paint except it took all my paint off as it was a shirty respray haha. After the 4e swap I am going to save 2k to give her a proper respray
  10. Right then I managed to find a 1.3 nismo rad cap and got it for a bargain price of £15! Well happy. Also got the nismo coolant gauge fitted. The car has been off the road for awhile now and I really miss her. Almost got money or a donor car its take a long time but ones I have that starlet that's all I need.
  11. High performance firenza droop snoot. one of 204 which were tuned to about 140ish bhp. Quick car for its age and still embarrasses a lot of the modern hot hatches. He has had it since new as well! Yeah I have gone abit Nismo crazy but the habbit has to stop really as its costing me an arm and a leg. I do see it as abit of a investment as some of the stuff goes for silly money over here,
  12. Got access to a computer for tonight so I thought I would do a big old update. refurbed and polished the outer rim for the ssr's myself after every shop I went to refused to touch them due to their rarity. Still need to paint the centre. I got some Nar type two wheels as well which are pretty awesome. I got loads of nismo stuff as well now. Centre caps for my RS8 nismo wheels which are rare as rocking horse poop. My Nismo horn button and lap timer control which will be able to wire into my built in clock/stop watch in my car. Loads of retro Nissans had them. Nismo coolant gauge
  13. Still not worked but I have started a video blog on YouTube of the car and the parts I am collecting. Also I am after starlet rear coilovers of anyone has one
  14. Want any good condition rear starlet coilovers
  15. that's why I want to do it but I search ukso or various other names and don't get this forum on there 😞
  16. Right I got loads of nismo stuff now! Massive list ready? Here we go. Boost and Coolant gauge, horn button with lap timer controls, stickers and number board, horns, gearknob and centre caps for my nismo rs8 wheels. I would post pictures but can't work out how to do it on my phone and this forum doesn't seem on tapatalk!
  17. nope got a full refund in the end mate. Was not happy. Many rude words were said
  18. Got loads of nismo goodies now. Horns, horn button, rad cap, gearknob. Finally finished everything besides the engine so I can finally save up for a whole donor car
  19. Few more parts ordered. Importing some retro nismo stickers from japan. I fitted a c pillar brace made no difference but I looks cool. Car is basically ready for the starlet engine just need to do some work on the brakes and buy some Fttuned coilovers from Malaysia. Cost £900 but worth it due to the fact the race super turbos and have put a lot of money into research and development.
  20. true well I will give him by tonight. If I don't get my money back I will go to his house and I remember he by mistake showed me his location on a Facebook chat
  21. yeah mate I did which makes me feel a lot better as I can easily get my money back
  22. thats what I said mate!! It's stupid. It's too tempting to just name and shame now since this has gone on too long. Keeps making up excuses. Only thing I will give them is that he sent me a photo of the engine on the pallet all wrapped up with my address written on it.
  23. was probably wanting to mess someone about. Do you have his address mate or rough whereabouts? If so message me. I highly doubt any respected courier would deliver this late. He seemed nice but the courier he is apparently using never pick up the phone or use tracking numbers. They do have a website though.
  24. yeah mate bought it about a month back from a guy on the starlet buy/sell Facebook page. Was sent two weeks ago apparently
  25. nah seller just showed me a bank statement on paying the company. He said it will come tonight as apparently the hgv with my engine is on the m4 which is right by my house. If it doesn't come by midnight I am contacted paypal about getting my money back and naming/shaming.
