shorty

v-quick small update. but these arrived a few days ago. fensport alloy powersteering and alternator pullys ...............................just need the car to arrive and can start the real fun....why are boats so slow ;)

@ nick p - i had to sell the silver one to get the new project. shame because i loved the silver one. kept the black rims for the new car @ marcusep91 - started talkin to a few companys about the box just low on funds at the mo. but def want one. got some fensport alloy pullys on the way too. should be here tomorow. just need alloy crank pully, uprated fuel rail, 550cc injectors, mani and external w/gate and the engine will be ready to go in when the car gets here. yea!

Southampton mate. used to drive round in a silver/blue glanza with black rims till i sold it. loved this car.

glad to hear it. dale was realy helpfull with his advice and just need to add a few more bits to the block to make it how i want. will def keep it updated. been looking into the ae111 gearbox from the corolla gr6. so watch this space!!!! thanks for the comments guys.

I've allready got my eye on some tien coilovers and loads of whiteline goodies and fensport are gonna help me out on the braking side. thought about the td05 or a blitz set-up but like i said got loads of ideas and not realy settled on nethin for def yet. any input or advice is welcome though. want big power and not to much lag. not easy i no. lol

well he was runnin the k26 i think he said and I've got the wrxsti td04 but needs sendin away to be played with by someone not to sure what i want done to it yet got a few ideas runnin round my head at the mo. been told it should max 1.7barish but not sure myself. lookin for big power though to rival my mates cars. i share a unit with an audi s2 and soon to be skyline powered 200sx. so not shy cars. lol.

cheers sparky. the guy who sold it to me had it mapped to run 325bhp so tryin to aim for around that kinda figure. just depends how much boot the td04 will take? will keep it all updated as an when. and i have to agree the second pic looks cool. lol.

make me an offer mate. and yea should be. got a cruise bonnet and fenders on hold with toby. who must say is a legend!! and a list longer than my arm of parts i need.

few teaser pics up and loaded now. follow the link in my sig.

Hey all. Heres a lil taster of whats going on. heres the car as i found it on the net...... so done some e-mails, parted with some money and here she is at the importing agents car park and the back here is the lil bit of damage to the bumper and the wheels that ill be sellin when she gets here and my forged 4efte pictured on pistonheads and engine spec is as follows: JE forged pistons, 1.5mm oversize -75.5mm Cunningham racing forged conrods 1.6mm copper head gasket with steel fire rings Light weight, knife-edged and balanced crank Super strong timing belt JUN lightweight flywheel TRD sports thermostat Exedy paddle clutch The head is of standard spec, fully rebuilt at same time as engine Inlet manifold and Throttle body All new bearings and seals, Spark plugs, PCD Valve and Distributor cap. and now how it looks after cleaning and taking the cover of to be sprayed and thats about it till i save some more money and till the boat arrives in late jan/feb. will keep you all up to date.

im a self-employed trainee electrician. pays ok when the works there. do big contracts for M&S and Tesco also do houses and flats. Gota go to college next year and take some new exams and then the pay goes up. hours are a bit long. mostley night work too. on about 20-24k at the mo.

I've wanted a TME for ever your sooo lucky mate. have fun with it. im 23, 3yrs ncb, no claims, crashes ect but kept gettin silly qoutes. mine where comin in at 2k plus. who didi you go with if i may ask??

cheers for the welcome dudes. will get some shots of the project up as soon as for you all to see.

@sweetas - i no what you mean always good to be able to see all around the car first. importin is a bit of a hassle and a def gamble!! @sparky - its very cheap! its got full elec pack too inc sunroof but its done 169,000km but i dont care because the forge lump has only covered 1500 miles so will be sweet. gota gut the car too is gettin new wings, bonnet, spoilers, suspension, brakes, ect. standard stuff looks ok but is a project so why not change it all lol.

@sparky - thanks mate will get some shots of the build up soon when the car arrives. @sweetas - i sold mine on piston heads. is the silver one with black rims sold via pistonheads. but I've imported my new one using a site called tradecarview.com is second had jap cars and you just use an agent to secure the deal and get it on the boat for you. mines costing around 2k shipped and it the one in my avatar pic. is a lil more hassle but saves a lot of money.

hey. what starlet you gettin?? you watin on an import?
