Did anyone notice the 'Help' function is overlapping the part where your pm's are " 0 New Messages'? Just a small glitch but I noticed it. I know we are waiting on the new improved 'fogdog' skin so I guess what I discovered is probably irrelevant lol. Joz

Sure Geo, why not man if you like that song so much. Feel free to use what you like mate. I'll be happy if it was of use. Updates are coming a little later, parts are in hand but no time to get them on. Will be worth the wait tho ;) Joz

Jay do you have a 2nd hand ep91 4efe heater matrix available as Dave will need one. How much from you and how much new? Cheers Joz

To find out your alloys measurements either check online for the info via google on that particular wheel or take the wheel itself off and check behind its as there will be there dimensions "how wide" etc on them. Having so many people in the car will weigh it down anyway and easily causes scrubbage anyway. Some of the best and affordable lowering springs available are Pi -40mm and RS*R Springs. If used without uprated shocks can last from 3 weeks to 3 years, a bit unpredictable and not the best combination really with lowering springs and standard shocks. Over time they will get busted. However it is the cheapest method to get your starlet lowered, but is the option with the least control with no adjustability etc. What is your budget mate? Joz

The Varis bumper is awesome but will look out of place without the rest of the kit. The 98 spec Glanza front with optional splitter would be a better option if your're going Glanza Rep. At the end of the day its your choice Idrees. Either way will look good on the Yellow EP! Joz

MSN's boss Joz

I voted for PASEO GT TURBO. And the 5efe is not untuneable MJ, but the guy was right in saying £££ for little gains. But you should know better, you won't get anything without spending a lil' lol. I didnt actually vote because I don't trust you lmao Joz

Welcome to UKSC minxy! Lovin' your MS design n/a starlet there and in one of the nicest colours too! We have a soft spot for starlet n/a's if you haven't noticed so you'll feel right at home When you are ready, post up a dedicated thread in the 'extreme ep rides section' of 'Tina' so we can see and hear more about her and of course yourself and your progress. You've certainly come to the right place anyway. Please Enjoy Your Stay Joz

What are you talking about Robert?? Haha Just buy mine If you really want an answer tho, ask a starlet specialist trader, they will DEFO know. I know when I bought my n/a 3g's they had to be a particular size etc which differed from the glanza/gt sizes. Joz

^^Or you can do that, but they will be 2nd hand Joz

Just came across your update mate. Really liking the progress man, and cheers for representing UKSCNI @JAE once again!!! I love the different approach that everyone makes on the n/a scene, keep up the good work bro! Talk soon Joz

The ones from fensport are the full units (everything) with added Vat, thats why they are so expensive. The cheap way is to get the covers which need modding to fit, the full units are much tidier however. So depending on what you want mtox, just over £50 for the light covers, or around £140-£150 for the full units available for order from your Toyota place in Denmark. Joz

Thanks for your support Tony Jay! I cant really use the suspension to its full potential yet haha as I need new tyres on her. Not having a great week either but I will keep my head up lol. Catch you on msn soon la. Peace Joz

Cheers for the comments guys. Some nice updates will be up soon! I've been busy lol! Joz

Excellent work Rob like I said before, you really made the effort to get the SR ready for JAE and you did!!! Look forward to trying out your cooking skills next year mate Peace Joz

Its OK Gaz, we could be going back in January for the Tokyo Auto Salon 2008!! Get on it!!! Joz

Get on it then peeps, no point talking about it hehe. Joz

Finally an update on our exclusive UKSC INSIDER @ Tokyo in November Trip! I've been talking to JGT who is the man in the know as he has lived in Japan, and he has very kindly given us some very helpful pointers from the inside. Of course a UKSC Insider exclusive interview as such haha. Check out what the man himself had to say... UKSC Japan Trip Guide - Written by JGT Ok first things first, you guys need to get yourself some cheap (ish) airline tickets, for this i recommend STA Travel, Benztravel and try Asda flights too. Those company's i have found to be the cheapest for me on the occasions i have travelled to Japan. (links below) http://www.benztravel.co.uk/flights/index.php http://www.asda-travel.co.uk/advanced_flight_search.html http://www.statravel.co.uk Most of the above sites do offer accommodation, STA Travel are very good at getting cheap deals on accommodation. If your students then try them as you will get discounts. Try the above, but i recommend The New Izu (http://www.izuhotel.co.jp/indexfEnglish.htm). This small hotel offers cheap single rooms or doubles and group rooms. I have stayed in this hotel on many occasions, the staff are friendly and the rooms are clean. The staff don't really speak much English though, but you will be ok as they understand you want to check in etc.. This hotel is in Ueno, a nice quiet area but in the heart of the city. It's close to Ueno station, and that is about 15 mins from the heart of Tokyo. The next place i recommend is Hotel Skycourt Kawasaki (http://www.skyc.jp/hotel/english/kawasaki/index.html). This hotel was very nice, costs a bit more than the New Izu, but is big and has a large restaurant. The hotel itself is a bit tricky to get to however the area has lots of shops for food, restaurants etc.. It's located next to Kawasaki Station, its a major station linking from Shinjuku, Shibuya etc.. The only down side on this location over the Ueno location (new izu) is that Kawasaki is about 25 mins from the heart of Tokyo. In the link under this paragraph, is a few pages worth of other locations with cheap places to stay. Not just normal places though, but capsule/pod rooms. I personally have not stayed in one in Tokyo as they are too small for me (near 6foot4), these are very cheap, about half the cost of the rooms in the above hotels. You should copy the names of the hotels in the link into google or something to view the websites and then you can check exact rates, locations etc.. The closer into Tokyo the better. Look for locations such as Shinjuku, Shibuya, Ueno, Yokohama, Harajuku and Akihabara. Those locations are about 10 mins max distance wise from eachother so you can save money on rail fares. If i was in a group, i'd recommend this the most. Its cheapest and a guaranteed laugh. Link for pods- - > http://gojapan.about.com/cs/accommodation/...kyocapsule1.htm I also recommend looking on this website (same as above) http://gojapan.about.com/. In my opinion, it's the most helpfull. It has maps, links to hotels and so much information. Rail passes, bus passes etc can also be found STA Travel from memory. Or, for example http://www.japantravel.co.uk, that link has cheap prices, you don't need green car prices, just ordinary will do. JR lines are all over Tokyo, Japan. Everywhere you need to go you can get to via a JR line. Another option to think of is to buy your tickets on the day, so when you go somewhere just buy them as you go. 7 days isn't very long, and most train trips within Tokyo are about 700-900yen. It may work out cheaper this way. Some train station staff do speak English, or a little so you can just say the name of the place you want to go and they will give you a price. Just state return or one way. They are atleast always there to help and are friendly offering maps etc. One of the best things i can say (and an alternative to trains) is rent a car. However you cannot just go show your license and get a car, you have to apply for a IDP (International License) before you leave UK. You can get the forms from your local post office and costs about £12. Its common for people to overlook that part, but it's essential. I'd recommend that only on the days you want to go out of Tokyo, or longer distance like Tsukubu. I got to the circuit by car myself, its further out than Disney Land. Perhaps an hour and a half out, its not really near train stations so without a car its not quite possible. It's worth it, there is always cars racing and the drive out there is great. Some great drift roads and good scenes to capture pics etc.. With Jam and other such tuners being in Tokyo they can be reached by Trains. Places like Zep are in Osaka where i lived. That is 2 and a half hours from Tokyo by Bullet Train. I'd only advise you to take a ride on this train if your going out of Tokyo and on the main line, like Nagoya or Osaka. Its a good experience but if you ride it around Tokyo it will cost heaps and and it wont reach speeds. So with that all aside, when you arrive in Tokyo the train stations are well signed and easily found. Many people to point you in the right way. The flight is about 11.5hrs to 12.5hrs and the food during the flight isnt great so when you land i'd get some drink and food in you. Mcdonalds etc is right there. Remember before you leave UK buy travel adaptors for you phones. I dont recommend using English phones as it will cost too much. Best bet is International phone cards. Tokyo in November will be very cold, much like England but its windy so it feels double cold. Still a great crack though, in the Tokyo area there are many clubs like Womb, that club is awesome! Awesome dance tunes, awesome people inside too. Also pubs such as Hub. Hub is mainly for foreign people, so they speak English in there and play good music. Also you can watch K1 and boxing fights etc on TV. Food is everywhere and cheap, Mcdonalds is a little cheaper than UK. Maybe £3 per medium meal, Japanese food is much better and depending on where you go it will either be very expensive or very cheap. In Ueno, you can get good cheap Japanese meals. Places i'd recommend on seeing are Tokyo Tower, Shibuya, Harajuku, Akihabara, Shinjuku and my personal fave is Odaiba. Odaiba is a mission to get to but it has the best view of Tokyo and that is where 'Wangans' are held. Around the Tokyo bay bridge are small shops with large truck stops/carparks. That is where the meet's are started. You can usually see the location on video's in YouTube, always looks like under the bridge. That's near Odaiba. Japan is very different to England in the sense that there is no chavs, almost 0 crime rating and everyone has respect for eachother. With that in mind they expect you to follow, they don't like littering or bad language in public etc.. More links and pics to come soon...
