This is pretty cool doesn't seem like they modify the starlets as much as we do over here

Cheers Adam Where's best place to get rods and pistons from now as import tax is ridiculous

What's the best tyres for wet?

Am looking for about 230 but only forging due to pushing boost up

?

i am looking to forge my bottom end i was wondering is there a massive difference in brands from wiesco pec pauter rods and woozier pistons i see the latter are more expensive any reason as to performance or just a brand price increase?

Hi mate no they supplied the head cams wise leaving them standard I think they are fine for the road as a fast setup it does make a difference mate but needs to be done properly mate

Looking for some forged pistons and rods

Cool cheers for the info guys will go buy some supplies this weekend

No just the prep work for paint has has most panels off the car already am guessing just need to sand them down?

How flat should we try getting the panels

Yes straight bodywork no damage

So my friend wants to save some money having his car sprayed and wants to prep the car for paint and has roped me in to help my question is how hard is can it be done wrong and what would we need is it worth trying ourselves to save some pennies

If anyone has 98 spec front and rear bumpers with the optional lips would be great

.

I parked the car up and had a few things i wanted to sort out one being on the dyno the car clutch kept slipping so i knew i had to put in a better uprated one also with the increase in power i wanted to put in a lsd to help with handling although it was very good just something extra so i brought a stage 3 clutch from ID WORKZ just to cover myself for future power increase and a quaff lsd with toyota bearings.

I then went about keeping the car at the same power but getting to that power faster so i decided to give disco a call and this came in the post

Full race spec head minus the cams shouldn't increase the power too much but will definatly get it to maximum power and spool faster

We finally got the edu in the glove box securely and fixed the hand commander

The keen eyed people would have spotted a tial wastegate behind the standalone ecu after much debating i decided to go today billet hybrid from the man WEPR and tis went in next big thanks to local starlet guy Jim who doesn't own one now but really helped me out

First came out the piping etc

Then finally came out the ct. turbo after much pushing and pulling

Finally

In with the new turbo kit

I decided i needed some different alloys so went for some rota grid v with ad88 tyres along with this i changed the rear lights to 98 spec

A few shots with the new wheels outside

After giving the car a full service and running for a while off we went for the cars first mapping session

The car was brilliant it pulled around 220bhp at 1bar boost i didn't want to push it much more on stock internals i was very pleased with the car it went like a rocket and was plenty fast for me at the moment. The gut who mapped it ran various tests on the engine before hand and commented on the excellent health of compression etc which i was also very pleased with.

It was all going well and then this happened

In my excitement of the newly mapped car i went for a sprint run down the A roads after opening the bonnet to show my brother i forgot to put the bonnet pins back on which resulted in the bonnet ripping straight off luckily there was none behind but the hinges had been bent back bonnet holes were massive and wing damage i was gutted.

So its been a while since I've updated i have brought a few bits and bobs firstly i needed to sort the edu out as i had to with all the uprated modifications so this turned up in the post

so one weekend me and my mate got to try fitting the standalone ecu in as neither one of us are mechanics all the information was sourced on this forum to see how fitting was done

we fed the wires through the grommet into the glove box i had to send my mate in the car as am too tall to get down in the small space lol

Are these fwd?

Sweet

Is it original stuff?

,

Cool thanks guys

Does it increase engine power? Or help increase it?
