  1. I hear what you're saying pal. I was hoping to not go more than 30mm ideally as it's my daily, and quite enjoying the soft ride as weird as that sounds. So was hoping a panhard wouldn't be needed at that kinda drop.
  2. I'll be sure to look out for you. It could've been you (if your was black) along side me on Newport Rd a few years ago. I was in a grey Rover Coupe Turbo and a black GT was along side and we both gave it some dump valve!!
  3. Lowering springs have been in my mind actually, but researching on here it seems I may need an adjustable panhard rod? I just can't seem to find info on whether a panhard is needed on a low drop, say 25-35mm, or only needed on a 40+mm drop?
  4. Thanks pal. It is a nice one in fairness. I've put 2000 miles on it in the 7 months I've had it, and all totally fault free of course....it's a Starlet after all!
  5. Hi pal, I'm Cardiff based. Not many starlets around these parts though
  6. Cheers pal. They're great little cars I have to say. I bet the GT/Glanza's are wicked!
  7. Greetings from South Wales. I joined the forum last week so thought Id check in to say hello. Bit of brief history on my Starlet ownership. Last year I decided I wanted a cheap, but reliable run-around to use as a second car, which has now turned into my daily. After much research on possible cars, it quickly dawned that only a Starlet would do! In September last year I found a rather unloved looking 1997 Sportif in the Birmingham area for a few hundred quid. The car was white but had all the sheen of a brick wall and a dented nearside front wing that looked as though a person of considerable
  8. I'd like a pair too when they're ready please.
  9. Yeah the brushless stuff is so quick. My 4.5t set up is in a Kyosho RB5 rwd 1/10th buggy. I tried a 3 cell lipo in it which made it almost undriveable! You had to be progressive with the throttle otherwise it'd wheelie.
  10. I've got quite a few cars, both nitro and leccy. The lipo and brushless motor combos really transformed the electric stuff. I get 30 mins run time from one, 2 cell 5000mah lipo battery on a 4.5turn brushless motor, and its blumin fast too.
  11. I'd like to know this too
  12. Where is the relay located on a Sportif model? I'm going to try LED bulbs so need to change the relay to correct the flash rate
