  1. The engine management light has recently come on so It might be that, Is there any way of finding out the error codes and yeah the joys. I bought the car knowing there was a few niggly bits that need doing, but the more I work on it the more bodges I'm uncovering. I'm tempted to take the engine out, sort it out properly then whack it back in. might be a job for the winter
  2. Cheers for the reply, what sort of problem would that cause me? and where is the knock sensor so I can have a look tomorrow and see if its that or not?
  3. Hi guys I got my first Glanza and thought I should start some of these as I've been doing a bit of work on her recently. Spec: Blitz nur spec exhaust Toyo sports manifold Toyo sports downpipe Speedvision ct9 hybrid with adjustable actuator set to 0.7bar Poorly fitted front mount intercooler Crappy boost gauge HKS turbo timer Momo steering wheel Not to keen on the wheels but its something I can change. Does anyone know what these are worth they are lenso bsx. After 1 day of owning it I broke down on the way home from seeing some pals so I got it recovered home and s
  4. cheers guys! ive ended up ordering a det 3 from rrr engineering. how do i go about fitting it. is there a plug and play loom i can buy?
  5. Cheers for all the info guys. Think I'm swaying towards the det 3 what are they like to fit?
  6. fair enough guys, again i really appreciate the info. from what you guys are saying i think its best to go for the ecu master. its more healthy for my wallet aswell lol. have you gone standalone? and also where did you get it all fitted etc
  7. have you got a link for their website please mate?
  8. okay mate ill have a butchers at his build thread. best look for a new tuner then. i dont really know of any tuners but ill have a look around
  9. Hmm I dunno, they said the same about the emanage blue Think I'll find somewhere else
  10. i have been warned about lc before so i know its not something to be playing around with/ abusing. cheers for the heads up anyway. i spoke to redline tuning today and they said they wont map an ecumaster as its a cheap untested ecu. i think i will go with a dastek unichip so I'm just waiting for a quote for fitting and mapping.
  11. fair enough mate, I think I will defiantly consider one of them, ill find out weather they will map one. are they easy to install?
  12. thanks again guys, never heard of the ecumaster, what are they like? and do they have launch control
  13. cheers for all the info guys really appreciate it. i spoke to them today and it all depends on the spec of the car with the price. unfortunately they don't map emanages, only reason i would go for the e manage is one of my friends is selling a e manage for a really good price
  14. cheers for the info guys, i think there the people to go to. what sort of prices have you guys been paying to get a uni chip fitted and mapped if you dont mind me asking
  15. as it says in the title, have anyone used redline tuning? i would like to go to mike at td but its a serious trek for me.
  16. Hiya guys, apologies as this is fairly similar to my previous post as i still haven't found the problem with my car lol. Basically when i start the car from cold it has as high tick over of 2000rpm then the warmer the car gets the revs will drop every now and again. then when it gets to running temperature it starts hunting. Someone on here told me to take off the idle control valve and give it a clean, which i done yesterday and it helped it slightly. the car was at a more stable idle for longer and then the revs would drop again, then be idling fine and then drop. i thought i would take
  17. fair enough mate, not a million miles awaythen
  18. I live in tonbridge in kent mate. Sussex is my surname haha
  19. okay mate, I did think it would be maybe a vacuum leak, how would I go about checking them. thankyou for the advice
  20. Hiya guys, I'm pretty new to owning a starlet ( ive had it a week) ive got a 1997 ep91. When the car is cold it idles around the 2000 mark which I know is wrong!. Then when the car starts to warm up the revs drop ever so on and when its up to running temperature it starts hunting quite bad. Then last night, it happened I turned the car off went and had dinner then come back outside to start it again and the battery was dead. I jump started it then all the lights where on the dad like I had just turned on the ignition so I turned it off and restarted it, it was hunting then when I went to move
  21. Whenever I drive the car it just puts a massive grin on my face. But yeah I will do matey, got some pictures to take to get it started. Cheers for the reply!
  22. Bought my first starlet on Wednesday evening (20/07/16). Absolutely love the car, fell in love with it when I test drove it! shame I broke down Thursday night (21/07/16). Not too sure what the problem is but I have had a look and think it might have something to do with the exhaust blow it produced before it broke down, the coolant temp sensor isn't working either so i think that might have something to do with it. cheers, Lewis
