  1. No need for discouragement apologies, I know how cars can be. Yeah I did a ringland on my piston (no.3 as always), have my own unit/ramps/tools and everything is good in terms of gaskets, leads, turbo. etc as it wasn't rebuilt that long ago. I just acquired a good set of pistons from a guy off here last time I rebuilt but obviously 1 bar of boost without management really fucked everything up within a year. I want to forge ideally (seen a set of pistons and scat rods and the block can easily be dropped out for notching and reboring.) however the cost my engiiner has quoted me to do e
  2. Is that £500ish including OE pistons and rings? I'm at the same fork in the road right now and Toyota want close to £500 just for a set of pistons and rings, nevermind anything else!

    PISTONS

    Long shot but after a set of pistons for my Glanza V. Blew a hole in the side of one of them just after I booked my holiday to Vietnam so can't afford to forge, but need the car as the one i'm using is about to get written off due to a National Express coach not knowing where the F he was going. Thanks!
  5. Did anybody buy those coilovers in the end?

    Ct9 Manifold!

    Wanted ASAP as mine is blowing like F***
  7. As above. Just did a rebuild on mine and really don't wanna fork out another £160 for a new unit just yet. I don't actually know if it's the alternator at fault but pretty sure it must be. Cash on collection preferred. I'm in the Milton Keynes area but can travel if needs be.
  8. How much am I looking posted to England mate?
  9. Long story short...glanza went pop yesterday. Piston no.3 is wrecked. Could do with a set of standard pistons if anyone has some around or has an idea where to source such things? Thanks.
