shorty

Pm me when pics are up etc bud

Importing from a company in japan adam

Best suspension by a mile, just hope they finaly adjust the 4wd price to be more in line with their other setups glad to have em on board.

Id not touch the boost with a stock mani in place and set it back to stock. As unless its been ported the next thread you post will be "why has my third piston melted?" You need to remember the massive restriction in the third runner of the oem manis.

Could be interested, price dependant. Got any pics?

Not had a chance to snoop over this yet. But now im back of hols im desperate to see the new mean machine also got some materials left from the light weight door cards i made in the goat if ya want it dude

Haha cheers lads. And grant dont even joke lol. But just because you have gone and said it, one more sneaky peak

Haha thats what set the wheels in motion matt, and i could of bought a 3door 85 or 95 but how many 5doors do you see anyone seriously seriouse i can get 4wd's but there realy isnt many about. Have befriended a jap car auction buyer soooo......... can get any imports found that people want.

Well whats better than a 4wd starlet??? TWO 4wd starlets haha. I couldnt say no when i found it as it looks soooooo damn mint! Its done 53k miles and is silly clean looking inside and out. Not totaly sure if im gonna use it as a runaround/green lane toy or maybe sell it on and let someone else have the joy of 4wd ownership. I was more attracted to it as its a 5door and you just dont seem them realy. I tried to stay quiet but im too excited about this haha. and thats all im sharing for now haha. Its the 1.3 100ps jdm engine however there is a 5e sat in the garage doing nout behind the goat atm so who knows. Eta is sept 8th so watch this space............in a few months lol.

Im aiming for 350-380 and i say aiming as well you never know what will actualy come of the spec. Me ep85 i hope will takeit but i do have a back up plan if not haha (shhhhhhh grant, deebo n jake ;) ) as for gears i was talking with gaz at fest and he said you should see 140-145mph and i dont know if he rasied the rpm limit but i certianly will again given my spec. As for ratio the final drive can be altered to give a theretical 170+ mph top end but what that will do to the other gears and overall performance who knows as of yet but that is a project for the winter with mine. Over all a damn good fwd with lsd will take the power you are looking at well enough as just look at spuddys gt build! That cars insane on power!! The 4wds biggest downfalls are 1. No diffs available. 2. No known capability 3. Bloody expensive for new viscouse coupling 4. Stupid hard to get drive train parts for.

Use a different thickness of of head gasket to alter the compression back the other way mate. Just make sure you calculate it acordingly or you may increase the chances of det/knock.

Potntialy head gasket if its a mayo type substance. Id whip the rocker cover off have a check in there and maybe whip the thermostat housing off too and have a look inside.

Tasty

Looking good g-man. Just roll with what we discussed the other week, will fir easy then And damn you jay!!! Litraly never gonna live that down

We are over!! I love you no more!! You sold the alloys to another guy! Still love your v though

Yea cage looks lush bit more importantly where s the rays???? I hope you havnt sold em

Looks stunning dude one of the cleanest I've seen tbh

Hkb should be fine on a momo i have had an hkb for 7 years and had two different momo wheels on it.

Yep ya had haha, Cheers boys, been a lil overdue realy haha but it is indeed so close now!

Cheers jamie but I've got a rail now. Typicaly grants poped up just after. Seen grants car loads in the flesh and have to say, the td rail fits bang on!! Hard to get hold of too!!

Lolz im just teasing lads it wasnt me

Haha your opinions dont count jay you never finished your v remeber i love the holes is a bit slaggy n i love slaggy look. This is a labour of love so no time limits on the build atal so dont be too gutted if its not at fest 2 people. Grants a very anal builder. He wont drive it i its not how he wants it.

Was very nearly alive last night i ran the battery flat priming the oil pump haha. And doin a load of elecs for the gf's parents today so no playtime she will be running befor i go on holiday next week!!

Anyone with good mechanical understanding and good skills can build an engine with the right tools and enviroment. Any one who wont take the sump off for the sake of a sale is not worth buying off as although the pics show a forged set of pistons they could be attached to a set of chocolate glanza rods. And might be pics of a totaly different engine lol. Sump off or dont buy imo bud.

Blokes a tosser imo! What a misstake
