Hi guys, Today going to work i never noticed any difference in performance.. When leaving work i noticed that the car was VERY sluggish, felt just like someone had taken the turbo off the car and was just a 1.3. Anyway.. i gave it abit of throttle on the dual carrageway and noticed that blue smoke was coming from the exhaust when i give it a little power.. Now im sure that this is the turbo on its way out which i really hate to say as ive only had the car 5 mins and the turbo isnt covered in the warrenty.. Checked the boost gauge and when my foot was down fully i was only getting just over 0.

Hi Toby, Much appreciated for the reply. Thats good to know, Il be ordering them tonight then :angry:. Is there any specific tyres you would you recommend? Also what size tyres for 16" Rota's? Regards Rob 4EFTE Sol - I am based just outside Hull and I have no idea what sort of price i want for them mate, The tyres will be going with them too so feel free to make me an offer .

Ok heres the pics as requested: And one of what they look like on the car :angry:

Hey Tuck, I thought so, Cheers mate . Does Toby have any other means of contact as i want these to get these on order and ask him afew questions :angry:? Rob

Im not too sure at the moment mate, but they are VERY badly kirbed and scuffed just for your info. I got told they are the original GT3 wheels and quite rare to find, its a real shame there in the condition there in. Personally i cant see me keeping them if i get a set from Toby so your welcome to have them mate. Il take some pictures today for you and see what you think ok mate. Regards Rob

You around mate? Id like to get these ordered as soon as poss if the price shown on your website is for a set of 4, id imagine it is but i just want you to clarify :angry:

Hi mate, Ive been browsing your website for wheels and im very interested in your 16" Rota GT3's in red I currently have these in black, they came with the car from Japan but are very badly scuffed so im after a new set.. Is the price on your website per wheel or for all 4? Thought id ask before i place the order :angry: Best Regards Rob

Thats what im asking for mate, afew pictures of different coloured center wheels, starting with white, then maybe lime green ;) lol.

Im debating what colour to have the center of my wheels.. Tucka has the same wheels as me and has had them both blue and gold which both look nice, the blue especially as its not everyday you see blue wheels that suit the car their on, but I dont want to copy him with the colour choice, so ive thought about having white centers. Could anyone photoshop me the center of my wheels so there the colour of the car. Heres Tuckas: Heres Mine: Regards Rob

Ok thanks for that, so why would i be getting a similar noise when i have the recirc in place?

isnt turbo stall caused by not running a recirc valve or a vented dumpvalve? This supra has a greddy type R bov.

Heres my engine bay.. sorry was taken with my iphone when i bought it.

Hi guys, ive just bought a very clean '97 glanza with some very nice tasty mods such as livesports bodykit, HKS exhaust, Racing Hart wheels etc.. and i will get some pics up soon when i find a good location. One thing im wondering is that i get the sound of a dumpvalve when I cant actually see a dumpvalve fitted anywhere in the engine bay, certainly not in the stock recirc position as thats still in place. It sounds the dogs danglies but im just curious as to what it is making the noise and wether its good or bad. It sounds like this, just not as loud... It doesnt flutter like it would if t

Ok and whom do you suggest is a good insurer? That quotation was with Directline, and tbh, they've been very helpful up until this point, i told them all the names under the sun and it still didnt register with them. Regards Rob

Hi guys, Rang up insurance today to get a quote on a starlet EP91 ok, they said they have never heard of it. I said its a Toyota Starlet Turbo, Their reply was "Never heard of it, need more info".. Then I tried Toyota Starlet EP91, Their reply... "Never heard of it, need more info". So can anyone tell me what the UK equivalent is for an EP91 turbo is? EG: Vauxhall Astra.. More info: GSI, GSL, Etc.. Much appreciated Rob

Evening All. Thought id introduce myself as ive just registered.. My names rob as you probably tell from my forum name.. Im 19 (not your usual 19 year old with modded cars in mind) and live just outside the great town of Hull . Love Jap cars, mainly our 3!!! 300zx's which we have in the family but its time for me to get my own Japanese car now and start doing the things i want to do to it and when i want to do them. I currently have a 1.4 saxo which was an 18th birthday present from my rents which i greatly appreciated but after nearly 2 years of owning it im ready and eagor (spelling?) to
