-
well time is nearing for a good update, engine will be running tomorrow, just waiting on the last few bits for the brakes (spacers etc) big BIG thanks to turbo grant who is a legend for sorting out all the engineering for the brakes and who will be doing the clutch in the coming week (im not a lover of trying to line up clutches out side the house lol) then the following week is mapping watch this space
-
depends on how old you are and how much your insurace company loves you lol i pay £840 fully comp with EVERY single mod declared lol and theres quite a few. is looking good matt cant wait to see it at fest, im gutted its not on track though
-

-

-
1. Ralphy 2. ForgedV 3. Philpott 4. Jimbo-ep91 5. Ollie Ryan 6. Shorty rich, drag josh down in the gt too
-
not all bad you will have wanted a new clutch if your going for more power and best time is when the forged was being done pick up an oem spec exeedy on egay for like £90 if your stuck, chin up and happy birthday for tomorrow
-
of course you will be sir you need to do my photos when mines all cleaned back up can have a double shoot. still not fitted yet is sat there all shiney and new next to the full rebuild kit. is going in next week now the new turbo kit is all fitted took her of road well was forced to take her off road a week or so after i last saw you
-
you will want 10mm socket + ring spanner for the cam caps 12mm (i think may be 14mm) for the cam pully no:9 star drive for the head bolts, tm-developments.com sell em for £9 i think and dave ships parts quick as fook! and thats it head will be off personaly i use a big bit of card board and mark out where every thing has come from and what way it faced as when rebuilding, a cap in the wrong place or a shim in the wrong bucket and your fucked lol. drop me a pm when you have it all apart and ill pm you some realy good links and guides to help you through your build bud. isnt too hard
-
that you are lol shes looking fresh mate,didnt get to see to much of her last time as it was quite dark when i came down. if your free try and pop along to the ace cafe meet in april, would be good to catch up
-
no, just mesh it for now, then fit it when the turbo lump goes in, will get dirty otherwise
-
Do a lil reasearch on it and fight back. If you take it off the road you loose out on the fun of your glanza and they win because its off the road, no one else is that effected as they will make mony with or without you business as far as insurance and traders go. Don't laydown and take it!! The mrs family are all coppers and they all said the same lol. I run a front exit with decat and screamer and have never had issues, they are just board, arguee the toss and make pc smith look like a twat also say its victimisation as its the second time they have been wrong and unjustly persecuted you!!!
-
i still think the varis bonnet and livesport front bumper will look much better, the car looks savage and needs aggresive body parts, im desperate to see this thing in the flesh!!!
-
lol true i do hear of massive bills coming in from ibas recovery's. if you know some one at the store though you can get it realy cheap if you know what i mean lol
-
go to pc world mate, the mrs works on the tech section and she said they can send hdd away for data recovery on an ibas unit not the cheapest service but if there that important to you dude????
-
i run 20mm hubcentric ones, is the only type to use imo as you wont ever fuck the studs and loose a wheel!!
-
but then its a catogory c or what ever wich makes it harder to seel or do anything with in future, i say just argue the toss, even if you end up having to settle at least you should get more than £600 the tight bastards, see ep91 n/a's go for £750-1000 in tidy condition with lowish miles.
-
In order to prove its worth more you need to find simlar speced, starlets selling for more. Mate had to do that with his escort. Don't accept the 600 they will write it off otherwise!! Fight it out with them. Plus write off should be when the cost of damage is greater than the value of the vehicle, get some quotes from body shops on repair costs
-
Lol its not too hard tbh, 1. Forged pistons 2. Forged rods 3. Full engine gasket set. Done. That is just the basics though, you could spend ££££'s if you want on a mega spec engine. Best bet is tm-developments.com and talk to dave or darren and get them to build it to the spec and needs you want.
-
Looks a lot like mine lol, except I've only got three wheels on mine haha, how long till she's off for mappin?
-
half way through the ae111 conversion, but need longer studs? any one got a link for them as id like to order them today but havnt the time to go beat them out the hubs so un sure on the spline thickness etc. more importantly, bigger master cylinder? any thet are a direct swap atal? im keeping the abs in too. brakes is one area I've never realy looked into so now is the time to learn more about how much i can do with them thanks for any help guys Tom
-
i run 20mm on the front and the handaling is much better imo, notice it most when plowing it in to a corner at speed
