Its cool man You just been so quiet lately we didnt know what stage your at. Sounds really promising bro. Talk soon Joz

Nice updates Liam. Hope the 4 point brace works out for you. Really like the look of those Parada's. And as for the Speedlines, I can see they did a really job of painting them for you. I would really like to see the Speedline writing in lime green as well as the lime green lip to keep with the Kermit theme but not to overpower the wheels. Keep up the good work mate. Promising stuff and its nice to know we have another ep handling junky Joz

Well Idrees mate, there is an abundance of suspension and handling info in the technical section. I have to be honest there is no real handling improvements that can had on the cheap altho I defo understand your concern. Everything starts to add up, and when u buy one brace, u gotta buy others. What sort of money do u have to spend. The backbone or starter spec for the n/a would be at the least, lowering springs/uprated shocks, front brace, rear brace, rear adj panhard rod and the mystic rear anti roll bar that geo loves to plug so much Would love to help mate. Dont forget the real feel of handling is when you use the components to their potential, not just daily road driving in particular but spirited driving pushing them and your chassis that bit harder, only then can you really say... I want to improve the handling setup Good grippy non budget tyres will also help your car stick to the ground (I need new ones badly) as they are the only thing keeping your car on the road and really are that important. Joz

Thats the most sensible approach you can take to be honest. And also improve an area that can be greatly exploited when done right. Welcome to the site tho Scoob. A turbo engine is a serious investment and performance aid and not a fashion statement Joz

Welcome to Michelle Hope you like the site and enjoy your stay. Some nice changes coming soon so stick around Joz

Can't wait to see all the pics of your work mate. Joz

Glad all is well mate. Few things waiting to go on so we can only wait and see after my mot which is early Nov. Talk soon Joz

Hey Mark! There's no hope for me then?? Red = JDM Colour anyways Hope life and the panda is going well. Good to finally see you on here, will make things more interesting... Talk soon Joz

This info is what will help you Chris ^^ as its similar to what my tacho instructions say. Joz

If that black wire method or daves final suggestion doesnt work I have two backup plans for you Chris. My info from my tacho instructions or can put you through to an online mate who is auto electrician. Catch you on msn, not sure when tho as my monitor has blown. Joz

Yes Lew mate. Big T isnt sure himself tho lol. Get the finger out and contact some people on other forums e.g austarletclub etc. Joz

Moved to Members Other Rides Get those photo's up Laura, the same way that Phil showed you. Look forward to seeing them soon. Jazz'd up your title too, hope its ok Joz

Show him the pics with the holes you had to make Idrees. Joz

The Glanza Tailgate or Rear Surround as we say requires a small amount of work to make it fit including holes that need to be made. Check Idree's Bananza for an idea of what is involved or get in touch with the man himself. Joz

You're welcome mate. Help and advice is always at hand when its needed, but feel free to take a direction of your own also. Keep the faith, save hard and you shall be rewarded Hope to see you in some forum discussions mate, you'll soon get used to it. Remember to explore the rest of the site as there is so much information to offer. Joz

Welcome to the site mate. Its great to see another enthusiastic N/A owner on the scene. Regarding the glanza headlights, they will fit but they are longer in size than the originals you have so the bonnet either wont close properly or look so odd it wont be worth it unless u get it modified. Its true to change the front end you will need all the parts or nothing at all. EP91 is our chassis/model code and refers to starlets produced from 1996 onwards through to 1999. The model one step down is called EP82 (turbo) / EP80 (non turbo) with the EP82 known as the infamous GT Turbo and ranges from 1990 to late 1995. The Glanza V is the EP91 turbo model with the Glanza S the non-turbo Glanza kitted version. The majority of non turbos you will see on the site are UK spec EP91's. All engines are 1.3 as standard. The Glanza bodykit is the most subtle of them all, and can be found on glanza's breaking for spares, avoid buying brand new from toyota unless absolutely necessary as their prices are extortionate. Parts crop up from time to time so try to keep your eyes out. I have invested a lot of time, money and personal development into my red 98 EP91 which is now running a 1.5 engine and upgraded extensively in almost all possible areas with scope for more. The emphasis on a total driving experience embodied with innovative n/a tuning and jdm styling. The ideal route altho not gospel is to go for Handling, Braking, Styling, then Power or a combination of all. The cost does amount up, but if you want to create something truly special, this can be achieved in due time. Here are some past pics of it that may give you some inspiration, if you want to find out more about it feel free to read my extreme ep thread for ideas and to see my n/a's humble beginnings or checking my interactive slideshow which I highly recommend Joz's Slideshow. Here are some good angles so you can how good the glanza kit can work along with some subtle touches of your own. No recent engine pics yet tho Im afraid, work in development There are also plenty of other non-turbo ep91s that may give you ideas of all the different possibilities too. These photos are from a recent N.I meet. We all had to start somewhere and there is no better time than now, congrats on just passing your test by the way, the real test starts now and that is on the road. Follow ecksjay's wheel fitment advice as he knows what he's talking about. The Glanza spoiler will also fit on as the non turbo ep91 is the same shape as the glanza so no complications there, even the spoler brake light wires up fine. So basically all bodyparts you see available or on a glanza will fit us n/a people besides the glanza front end and glanza front end intended parts where the full whammy is required. Good luck with your project, drive safe and enjoy this site to the full. Feel free to add me to msn jozman18@hotmail.com, I would be more than happy to answer any questions and put you on the right track, the rest is up to you. Joz - UKSC Moderating Team

The Ep92/Ep82 TRD Quickshift has a reduced throw of 25%, this doesnt just mean the length of the shift bar but actually 25% less internally. Everyone who has one will agree that altho its a small reduction there is still a noticeable difference from stock. Its a worthy mod in my opinion and the gear knob that comes with it is worth £45-£50 alone so a good deal, altho I found it too chunky and got myself a JAM item. Catcha on msn Marc. Joz

I like it Eric, you have been really quiet mate. Hope you enjoy this new beast, spesh with the coilys etc. Really looks the part and a nice updated drive I bet whilst keeping the small chassis. Dont forget about your old red tho. You're always welcome here mate. All the best with the new project. Joz

Kevin I can't believe this has happened. I hope you get through it ok and the ep91 gets repaired as its such a waste of your good work. Please keep us informed. The best of luck. Joz

I can imagine Sicaln The Hedgehog, can even hear the damn music... Joz

Sorry but Im afraid I have no square envy, now stop polluting the thread simon. Joz

You look good Simon ;) , but not as good as my new homemade siggy Joz

Never liked them anyway "Belts (squares) are only there to hold your trousers up" - Bruce Lee. Joz

Thanks for the comments gents. Hope she gets through mot ok! Indeed lots of exciting developments, with some long overdue upgrades coming soon to totally finish the car, well for now anyway Joz

No interest from me Im afraid Joz
