Another year another car... its just how i roll!

These where from my mates Cannon D90 with my 50mm fixed lens. I tend to use a Cannon D700 or Fuji -

HKS or Jam will be your best bet. -

Not really much of an update but decided to have a play with a new camera lens at night, some are a bit noisy but that's because i was running quite a high ISO: thats all for now -

you will need a RRFPR (rising rate fuel pressure regulator) at a minimum. An Apexi SAFC would help tune better fuelling but is upto you. Have a quick read of this and you will be sorted mate : http://www.ukstarletclub.com/forums/index....showtopic=37679 -
Depends what ecu you go for, if its something like an emange then keep the regualtor on as its stronger then stock... even if it runs at stock fuel pressure. but if its something like the jam/blitz plug and plays they tend to work best with the stock regulator for some reason. first off though i would try replacing the leads, plugs dizzy cap, rotor arm etc. cleaning them doesnt mean there not worn and past there best, look at the coilpack aswell.

Danke Cheeers man, yup still busting that bad boy on the soft top. had a massive sun strip size one on the front window when i bought it so i assume it had work done there at some point. naaah this is all about cheapness and gay n/a. will get a new car next year so that will have a turbo/supercharger or big litre n/a. -
tuff... if you want over 300bhp but no lag by a bigger litre engine. there is very little you can do unless you go 5E, get a proper head port polish, cams, bigger throttle body etc... then with specific turbo and mani specs you might be able to get over 300 with low lag levels

Small Update Received my silenced mid section this morning and some new genuine Mazda exhaust rubbers and gaskets: Set about fitting it... this is what came off: Rusty as shit! and falling apart. All i can say is what a difference!! got rid of all the nasty rasp the exhaust had and its a dam sight quicker now its not blowing like a bitch. exhaust sits back where it should and the new rubbers really make it tight so no rattling or hitting my rear chassis beam. -
lets just say i ran a td05 18G on my Subaru... that's a 2.0L now put an even bigger exhaust housing on the turbo and run it on almost half the litre capacity engine! its going to be shiiiiit! waste of time in my opinion, laggy and far to big for such a small engine.

I loooove it to bits, hopefully though when i get the duck tail sprayed up grey the back end will look less 'busy' and it will fit in more. currently alot going on with both in black but its far to rare for me to remove now -

Glanza_cl replied to akyakapotter's topic in Intake, Turbo & Exhaust
I thought the jam actuator ran 0.8bar low boost and 1bar high boost?? try reconnecting you boost restrictor so the high and low boost switch works again and see if running low boost changes the boost levels. -
unfortunately you wont be able to get a deep dish unless you run a wide wheel like 8/9j, or a low offset like ET20 and below. problem with the starlets is the arches are crap and dont cope well to wide wheels and they cant go low because of the fixed axle. Dean, josh and idy all had/have low offset deep dish wheels on there starlets and the work involved is not ideal. If you want to do it go for it dude but you would need to roll and pull your arches, get fully adjustable coilovers to run a decent camber then find a low offset wheels and choose the correct stretch tyre to fit under your arche

they'd look pants mate... dont do it

Right time for a much needed update!: Roof is fiiiiinaly painted black, also got the chance to fit my G wing roof spoiler Think the stance is allmost perfect just need to get the back lower but currently my exhaust needs adjusting as it scrapes on everything haha. Fitted my offset number plate bracket and pressed plate, resprayed my grill matt black while i was at it. snapped my electic window cable so decided to buy a whole new door and use the complete electric mechanism from that and while i was there i stole the window as mine was scratched then decided to nab the door handle as t -
could quite easy run some 30mm hubcentric spacers, then you would be 16x7 ET10 which would be bang on for a daily imo. http://www.ttspares.com/store/fk-b-spacers...bcentric-1.html not sure what bore size you need so might be worth investigating
-
not a major difference but might be a bit more crashy if its hitting the bump stops, i still have the helpers but have no thread left on the coilovers ;) not sure what offset your alloys are but getting it close to ET0 will make them mega flush/beyond flush with the arches like mine. so every 10mm spacer will lower your overall wheel offset by 10 . 25mm sounds a good amount though

have a read of this mate, i wrote it up a while ago and should help you out a bit. http://www.ukstarletclub.com/forums/index....showtopic=37679
