  1. nice spec to get you going with, and looks clean. nice buy
  2. yea will get a bit more as seperate parts, need to make stuff as cheap as pos because it just aint selling atm so yea best to break it down dude.
  3. 900-1200 depending on how quick you want rid
  4. from the 100hp stock na right the way up to 350hp, an lsd will sort the traction and and cornering grip its not a case of "needing" an lsd more of the fact that an lsd is such a great modification that it will be a massive benifit if they can be made.
  5. I've got a set of glanza ones spare, ill post em to you if you post me your ep82 ones as i want a set to mess with for my ep85 fire me a pm if you interested
  6. what a fuckin legend!!! fairplay to him. love the bird in the bmw all smug till she realised what his angle was lol
  7. if it turns out the caliper is fooked inside and the arm isnt engaging the piston properly some how or what ever then pm me your address and i will post you a rear caliper for what ever side you need from my old v (they worked fine) ill cover postage ect DO NOT BREAK THIS GT!!!!
  8. the 4age arp crank bolts 100% fit i used them in my forged engine i bought them from tm-developments.com as for fly bolts as far as im aware no one makes an uprated set (id have a set already if they did lol) just buy new ones from toyota and rember to use lock tight on em when fitting them in.
  9. rat look would look the tits mate!!!
  10. try insuring yours with turbo conversion to see what the difference is?? if its decent just wop a 4efte in yours
  11. try elephant dude, and worse case get some one fully comp to drive it back for you and sorth the insurance later
  12. in fairness why would you leave stuff like that in a car when sending it some where anyway? and clearly you have alot of dodgey garages around. finding a good honerable garage is no harder than finding a decent pumber ect. id say its paranoide when your talking about swaping gearboxes ect hes not on about pinching change ect is he. i have a quite a few mates working in motor based trades and im a tad offended that people assume they are less honest than a shop worker or whatever. as stated before if your that concerned take it some where else.
  13. seriously bud i think you going a tad ott?? I've never ever heard of a reputable company robbing bits off a modified motor.
  14. what the actual spec of the engine bud? just read the hole thread. nice build mate. was just a tad curious what size the je's are and also where did you get the copper hg? after one for a build me and a mate are doing.
  15. thank fook you carried on!! LOVE this gt, and you of course lew
  16. wooooow paranoid much?? my v cost silly money to build and had some crazy ass rare parts on it but if a company has a good rep then do you think they would throw that away for the sake of a few £k's worth of bits of a starlet? considering an audi s6 gear box is prob worth the value of the average glanza and im sure they have probably had one or two of them in. if you trust them that little dont go there simples. but tbh when i used to drop mine places for bits and bobs the workers used to drool over it not eye up what they can rob!
  17. trust me there bad lol i have no artistic talent atal, even my stick men look shit lol my mates got an s13 we are thinking of spraying matt black just for ease of touch up when he dings it drifting lol no some one sort this man out please!
  18. bump, com'on some on sort ryan out sounds like it will look awesome! id do it now for you ryan but my photoshop skills are worse than your outline skilss haha
  19. Ah would of been the title change dont get me wrong dude, is nothing wrong with a lumpy idle i love the sound of big camed engines souds awesome imo. And checkout youtube, theres a forge engine build guide buy a greek tgtt member and its very helpful, is about 10 vids in the series but gives you a lot of good info! His name escapes me though im sure you will find it if you have a look
  20. Glad he said brew and not beer lol, could make for some crazy banners if beers involved lol
  21. Niiiiiiiice one dude, havnt a clue how i missed this thread! And with the head its the duration of the cams that will make for a lumpy idle bud. The higher the duration the more lumpy it becomes but equaly the longer the valves stay open thus allowing more air in and out on the relavent cycles. Will be interested to see how they perform.
  22. Looking good mike, has come up lovley on the paint work should realy polish mine soon.
  23. Pure gent! Txt you tomorrow
  24. Cheers ian, and thanks phil, nothing like a bit of true jdm light weight alloy to freshen up the motor
  25. was me asking bud, if you have a look at what the guage reads when you booting it in third or forth then it should give more of an idea of if your running more than stock boost. the standard exhuast manifold has a restriction built into the third runner wich struggles when the boost is raised slowley melting the third piston with a bit more info on the car we can advise you better on how to either a sort it or b if its even an issue. dont mean to worry you in anyway, just is a common thing people arnt aware of when they first buy turbo starlets
