  1. enkeis mate. wanted a set for a while and seen a couple on skylines. so yer 99% certain they are enkeis.
  2. Anyone? would appreciate any input. bear in mind im gonna be running a td05 at a bar maybe 1.2 but will start at a bar. will be doing all work myself as is a second/project car but to also reduce on cost labour costs are criminal these days. any help would be great sam
  3. ha ok guys i get the jist. cheers for the help if not i might wack on a ct9 on my conversion before the td05 just so i have no problems and when running in but ill deal with that in 2 months when it comes. appreciate the input guys sam
  4. LOL yep thats the one! got the auto box off late last night and gave up when i saw it. so yer how do i get the torque converter off sam
  5. Hi guys could do with some input.. I have a 96 auto 4efte in need if a rebuild. oil pump went on it and been sat for a year. now ive never done an engine rebuild, would love to learn but how much are we looking to do a full standard rebuild. i cant afford forged atm so no point considering really. also if i could get hold of 5efhe pistons id love to do a 5e build.. but again anyone know of costs, like gaskets, pumps etc. tried a search but didnt give me much. then the other option is do i just buy a secondhand 4efte, but problem is ensuring condition, where to get and also cost.. help lol also if anyone has a list of parts needed for a standard rebuild that would be soo useful cheers sam
  6. Hi just wondering what everyone does regarding side exit exhausts and MOTs etc. its gona be mated to a tdo5 so chucking a cat wont really be an option unless when i get it made have a removable cat or summin i it fits maybe.. any one know anything on this. help please got some decisions to make. cheers sam
  7. as above, had a quick look but was wondering how the hell do i do this. any help would be muchly appreciated cheers sam
  8. completely changed the look now. absolutely love what you have done to save this. favourite sleeper so far. some choice mods. love the bucket seat aswell. sam
  9. mate, as much as chopping up a bride rail would be criminal, it looks like your only option. Most garages with a decent welder and angle grinder would be able to do it for pretty cheap. And seriously who cares if thats a a fake or not. That seat is frekkin awesome. was it second hand? can u let me know where u got it from because i need them in my ep. very much. sam
  10. i would do horrible unforgivable things to have some of these cars in my life...
  11. Hi guys never had any experience with painting but am very practical and learn by doing so.. asking parents to buy me a spray gun, spray guns. but have no idea what im looking atm, whats the best ones, types etc.. Any tips will be real helpful, got a big compressor. want to start doing bumpers, wheels etc then move once ive practiced enough to eventually doing my starlet later in the future. any help appreciated cheers sam
  12. quite excited bout this. love the lupo on the purple steels seen it a few times. very excited about this as i love the look your contemplating and have big/similar plans for mine too. good luck bud get a build thread up when u get one!
  13. where the fuck you get a bumper and bonnet sprayed for £90? lol i wish there were cheap spraying places nearer me, my car badly needs it lol nice car by the way looks similiar to mine at the beginnning. sam
  14. i was never a fan of the bodykit or the wheels but always liked it for being a bit different, but the wheels, headlight vent makes everything work so bloody well. this is now by far my favourite starlet on here and i really like the bodykit now aswell. two questions where are the wheels from and how much i need them in my life lol. also how did you go about doing the headlight vent because ive also been contemplating this idea for a while. amazing build mate get more pics lol cheers sam
  15. need updates for this badboy. i so wana have this for my next car lol awesome work!!!
  16. i need that orange in my life.... lovely car mate, cant wait for the itb's cheer sam
  17. also you need to get the plastic clips for the bottem of the rear bench to fit secure i just rest them in the holes and they dont really move. i plan on getting the clips just never got round to it. thats what ive heard anyway sam
  18. yer get pics up, ive had mine for over a year and still only fitted drivers and rear. got so fed up with trying to fit the last bolt by the gearbox tunnel at the front that i chopped it off and welded a new hole lol. but would like to know so i cand do passenger side easier. as it looks pretty stupid having odd seats lol cheers ssam
  19. o and bad news about the test buddy, all the best for next time sam
  20. hiya mate i pm'd you about the crystal lights. well i have a black auto glanza with bonnet, front bumper and rear bumper all in black. rear bumper not in the best condition but if you are going for a respray would not be a problem. fewstonechips on bonnet but i will clean and polish everything first aswell so wouldnt be able to tell until right up close. i could also give you the headlight adjusters and bumper brackets needed for doing the turbo conversion. im by no means rushing you just i want the lights lol. also let me know if you want anything else mate cheers mate sam
  21. i love this starlet. seen it over on ausc and is totallyminted. what i wantmine to looklike almost one day. did the cams and fte rods make a difference? did you have headwork when you fitted the cams also? considering how far to go with my n/a or just get boost. anyways lovely motor mate sam
  22. hi i need some info and help really. i can get hold of r32 brakes for basically nothing through my work and saw quite a while ago these brake kits and seen a few people running these kits but cant find them anymore? what i wanted to know is where could i get the brackets to fit them and also the diss to use with the 4 studs aswell. possibly cheaply aswell but as we all know this doesnt ussually happen lol also will starlet braided lines fit the r32 calipers? any help appreciated guys and gals cheers sam
  23. haha tht would b nice but finding a good one well thts the problem lol...o yer and havin the moneys. maybe solved with a nice 5efe and gearbox now tht wold b good lol sam
  24. cheers for the response yer i also have the same trouble with reverse but it does crunch so. yer sometimes u have to give it a bit of a push but i mean im not a small guy by any means and when it dont wana go in...it wont but im gonna try new selector but if not new gearbox time o yey... more money lol thanks for the help anyways guys. sam
  25. been happening on and off now when i go into 3rd it wont go in and have to give it a wiggle and it eventually goes in. same thing happens now with 2nd gear and dont know what to do. am guessing its to do with the selector itself but has anyone had similiar issues with theres and how they solved it. mines an n/a if it makes a difference. any help appreciated sam
