  1. is anybody using this turbo on a stock engine? just wondering what power its making at 1 bar?
  2. yeh dont worry mate. front end is staying put
  3. amateur photoshop skills LOL before... and after...with glanza bumper/skirts, spoiler drawn by me haha. and lowered a fair bit with rota slipstreams (im liking these atm) but still open to suggestions
  4. ok dude cheers, atm ive tried looking for some dished wheels but they r all too wide it would seem i dno. right now its between rota grids in bronze or rota slipstreams in black or white
  5. apsolutely nail on the head mate. the world is gna end yeh right lol. does anyone know how many things nostradamus came out with? he literally predicted anything and everything. its nothing but the law of averages making a few of his proficies to come true. for all you guys who are counting the days down. ile be having a good laugh at you on 22nd december 2012. by the way the mayan calender doesent predict the end of the world at all. it predicts a spiritual enlightenment. something will happen to change for the good sweet dreams
  6. anybody suggest me some nice wheels for the starlet? im a bit stuck as to what to get for her. open to any suggestions
  7. i wont put my name on the list yet but dependant on the state of the car in the next month i should be able to give you an answer. nice gesture for your friend mate, and hopefully ile be able to come along also. theres some awesome roads around there!
  8. loving that dude...do you have the zoom springs on now then
  9. what are the general opinions on this kit people? anybody used them really hard? im tempted to get a set for my ep95. im assuming they would be the same as a set for a glanza
  10. ile be hopefully getting 250bhp so im gna aim for 13's to start with. then maybe push high 12's if i can get some practice in without it breaking im sure one of these 4 paws will crack a serious serious time soon.
  11. yeh mate they r drums on the rear of the 4paws. has anybody converted a 4paw into rear disc at all?
  12. hi would i be right in saying that any brakes and wheels that fit a glanza should also fit an ep95? im thinking about buying a set of WMS 4 pot brakes and a decent set of rims for the 95, and i know a glanza that has the same wheels on it so just wanted to check on here before i spend anythin cheers people.
  13. thats brilliant to know john thanks mate. ile see how the car goes when its turbo'd but i reckon i might end up changing the 1st and 5th then as theoretically that should give you more powerful launch take off for longer and also the cruising ability in 5th. but still retain the fast midrange through 2nd 3rd and 4th. problem is that after driving mine back from scotland to birmingham i could tell how quickly it shot thru 1st gear and thats with 80odd bhp. so with 250 ile probz be shifting before i know whats hit me.
  14. this is the problem like sparky said...modifying cars tends to be a money pit sometimes we all know the risks when we put big turbos on these tiny engines lol. my mistake i made with my glanza was having it as my everyday car. it stung me time and time again and i bet more or less every1 whose had a turbo conversion done has had some kind of trouble with the motor at some point. ive since got a starlet as a 2nd car so can spend a little bit on it here and there and hopefully not end up getting my pants pulled down. anyway, nick has said as soon as he can hes gna put his side of things on here
  15. exactly lol. give nick a chance to come on here and tell his side of the story. ive told him about this thread so hopefully he will be able to let every1 know his side of events also. edit: dont shoot me down i am not saying im backing anyone i dunno whats gone on im just sayin let him come and have his say
  16. i would be interested in the lowering springs, how would they compare to the coilovers from meister tho? cus i want a proper firm ride and low, but not slammed completely tho.
  17. hey people, not much of an update but have done a few little things to the interior and given it a good clean. enzo cleaned it up nice for me when i picked it up but it got FILTHY on the journey home. so i gave it another wash and a quick polish so a few updated pics. not exactly like chris stewarts amazingly clean ep85 on here, but im pleased considering how pink it had gone before...see below when it was in japan.
  18. aint after mega power lads, just gna aim for a good 230-250bhp on either td04 or td12 or something along those lines. im hoping that will make it fast but fairly useable on the streets oh and bodywise its staying exactly as it is lol besides being lowered a fair bit on coilovers and decent wheels.
  19. pmd you about the springs dude..and cheers for comments every1. cant wait to get started on her, got a loooooad of plans lol
  20. finally picked her up yesterday so thought id put some feedback and start a progress thread, gna give her a good drive round today then clean her as she got dirty again on the way home, as the 300mile motorway drive in it was horrendous - trying to keep up with the missus on the m6 lol. defo not a motorway cruiser lol. gotta take the opportunity to say thanks to enzo, kept me updated with everything, and the car was exactly as described, very clean, and nice to drive. only one thing that needs sorting is a bit of wheel wobble at above 70mph. so a trip to get the wheels balanced is first on the
  21. awesome dude! what stage is it at now then? mapped? looks verrrry tasty thats for sure. mind if i ask what brake setup u have on this car, with it pumping out 300 odd bhp. i aint sure what to do with mine brake wise. keep up the good work
  22. as said get everything worth anything taken off it a bit lively! give em back a bare car. and when u get chance put the name up of the place who u bought it off. cus every1 can avoid them if we know they r selling stolen cars,
  23. hi mate i also got an ep95 coming from enzo. i think uve named everything there in your list bar the decent wheels and tyres, and coilovers/suspension setup of some kind. im going for a side exit exhaust as if you want to lower the 4wd starlets u probz gna struggle to fit it back there with the rear diff and axle. if you really want a normal system then u might have to get it custom made but not sure on that one... everything else i think uve pretty much named. one thing tho, why change the gear ratios? cus the 4wd boxes are close ratio so it will shoot through the gears fast. that was one
  24. ask enzo mate, he imports them. if u want it taxing and testing, etc ready to drive away depending on year, spec, mileage etc ule pay between 2200 and 2800 or so.
