Dude thats alot of hassle right there! Id of had trading standards down that garage asap and viseted ragz for my cash back too!! Best bet is forged pistons and bore the block to remove the scores. 74.5mm should be ok if its not too deep. if it is then 75mm pistons maybe? Iddy has a gb on forged rods atm and is doing 5e ones in the gb. just gather bits over time maybe. Feel for you dude. i trust very few people on my car tbh. only a few garages i will take it too and its only becauel i know them on a personal level

Its starting to bug me that when using a phone and trying to pm the message box appears at the bottom of the persons info page. the touch keypad on a phone then covers the message box so i end up writing blind can this be changed atal? I prefered being taken to a new page for pm'ing on the old software. and i currently try to avoid pm'ing at all costs due to it being such a mission!!! Cheers and other than that the newlook software seems awesome.

Press the hazerd light switch vigorusly on then off as if you have used it recently it could be stuck slightly. its a common issue with the hazzard/indicator system

You know it ;)

Pillow fight to the death! Best way to settle beef amongst brothers!

Haha bout time jake! time to build a proper track car ;)

Grant you are a legend! I love your engineer! Mike its nothing special, its johno's old bonnet that was freshly resprayed and hes lookig for an oem bonnet atm thats all lol. trust me youd know if there was somthing in the pipe line my 4wd brother lol ;)

Poweflex all the way! Cant go wrong. I've run them.for a long time as have alot of my mates.

Haha my car is in bits as usual ill be up so much you will get sick of seeing me when the new daily is here ;)

Lol hey dude. and despite wat the above from matty says ep82 all the way. even my ep85 feels lighter than my v ever did and alot of my v was fibre glass!! Gt turbo will be spot on ;) also tell your mr to txt me as i aint seen him in weeks!!

Wow bad times!!! Same day as ninja shines track day and i want to kill some celicas in the ep85 shame if it was just one day either side of the 28th then could of done back to back track days

Lookin tasty mike! Our cars could almost be twins! Hows she doing in the snow? Mine has zero chance of seeing snow this year

Not selling the bonnet im afraid johno unless iddy makes some sort of frp one. And bigman you can have a drive after you have had the car we have been talking about for a lil while ;)

Looks spot on. nice change from the norm. love the stance! Wheels suit the clean look too. nice work mate

Prob not. Its all differs from wich rails you have as to the amount of welding. its all trial and error. wait till ya have em then go from there.

Would have to be a gi style for me, unless you can do me a bonnet thats like a scoopless gt bonnet! Thats my ideal style

Awesome id love an frp bonnet. Now you have a zep reverse scoop could you not mould an 82 bonnet with the scoop fitted to shape a gi from that? If ya follow what i mean.

Lol nice mike i realy hope it dosent snow where i am as ill be anoyed the 85 will miss it why its laid up!

Obx 5e manis on ebay.com from the u.s pop up now and then. is a few ebay shops in the us that stock obx parts ;)

But to much retarded timing will lose power too! Mapping is a skill, like any skill it can be learned and like anything there are thoses who are awesome and thoese who arnt! somtimes it pays to try a few.

Cheers dude ;) and you know theres always a passenger ride waiting for you when shes done. i binned the engine it was sat out the front of the house and a scrap pikey nocked the same day it was due to come out so told him he could come back and bin it the following day! Got the injectors, ecu, inlet and exhuast still though ;) Shud be BIG updates in the comming weeks

What he said ^^^^ I quized grant bout mine as the ep85 is the same dude. im binning it and useng oem gt gear ;) grants the man baby!!!

Rubish man!! Head off is half the engine out already!! Your talking 2-3hours tops from that to take the engine out! I've had engines in and out of starlets so many times its common palce for me now haha. if you brake jeff because you cant be arsed to take the engine out then a.) i will slap you with a wet fish! (and dont think i wont) and b.) do you think stripping the car would be less hassle? Parts dont just fall off lol and the engine would then need to come out any way thus contardicting the very reason you justified braking the car!! Ironic eh?

Thats what mine was too but a sudden rush of boost leavin the two faces via the space provided by the streching head bolts is plenty of potential for warping can be fixed though. You know starlets si, if it can happen it always does lol. Leave it a few days then wrap up warm and crack out the tools dont let jeff down! Hes come too far now

Si mate i hate to be the bearer of bad news but after a hg fail its best to check the block face too. as the block may need a mild decking too this is why my whole engine was in bits a year or so ago. whip the head off and get it checked n maybe reskimmed you maybe ok. also while the head is off check the block face for level. I've not heard of an athena gasket failing so is more than likly deformation of a surface. chin up bro shes a beast!!! Dont give up when your so close! You will regret it and then just come back and start again with another starlet haha we all do! Persevre mate!!
