  1. Running stock calipers yes. Might have plans to upgrade for the future, but that won't be soon. I'm going to be running 195/50/15 tires. What do you mean by archwork? Just roll the inside lip, or actually widen the entire arches? I'm not afraid to roll the guards but anything beyond that or plastic fender flares is a bit much for some wide wheels.
  2. Specs above. Would they fit on an EP82 without rubbing? Archwork is not a problem as it's a track car. Currently running 6,5x+37, and if I go to 8x+25 that means 7.1mm closer to the strut, and 31.1mm more poke. I know the outside will be fine (except the strut I don't know), but it's the inside that I'm worried about.
  3. Ah, thanks for the tip! I'll look into that.
  4. Well, guess I'll postpone that for now. Wider tires are going on tomorrow, should make a big difference already
  5. I've got another track day this Monday, I'll see what the brake ducts I made will do. If there's still fire I'll look into pads, maybe calipers.
  6. Okay, here's the deal. I'm building a trackday Starlet. Last time around, here's what happened. Sometimes when braking hard from 70-75mph, my brakes catch fire very briefly. Maybe for half a second. Everything is stock. What can I do to cool the brakes down? Here's the research I've currently done: - Stock 13" have zero space inside the wheel to cool brakes, got 15" OZ Superturismo being refurbished to be put on. - Stock brake pads are prone to overheat. What's available, and what's recommended? - I can't seem to find vented brake discs anywhere... Advice? - I've got plans
  7. Hey folks! Okay, first things first. I'll be brutally honest, I'm a Dutchie living in the Netherlands. However our Starlet forum isn't what you call 'active' so I thought I'd expand beyond borders, and well here I am. 2.5 years ago, I turned 18 and bought my first car, a 1990 EP82 Starlet. Not the most spectacular first car, but it had a bright blue color and it was likely reliable. I had pretty much zero technical knowledge about cars however, and did a few mods which I did know how to do. I got a new front bumper because mine was cracked, stickerbombed a second bonnet I got and
