I demand pictures!! ^ Hes got a FCD ready to go on....

This should help http://images.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=h...ficial%26sa%3DN

To an extent it is stones/birds/grit anything could get in...but each to there own i guess, its best to put a filter on it.

bourks meshed his turbo......

I`ve had a lazy weekend bud...was off on fri,sat,sun,mon,tue i start 2nd sem tomorrow n im only in for 9-11.... Need to find a job tho.....morrisons me thinks?

OOh i see its not connected up, the two silver things is where the pipes go and theres an arrow too.....its a manual boost controller

Sorry to hijack, but does anyone know what that is, near the BOV on the pas pump pipe? (the shiney red thing)

Yup, not sure about the high-low boost tho..

I think it is, below it is the abs pump (big silver block) Bourkey doesnt have one as 1) he doesnt have ABS 2) they only came on glanza-V`s

Mate, you dont know how proud i felt when i saw the "MADE IN JAPAN" sticker i almost cried when i came through the front gate....

N/A......aww look at him

Aslong as you get the head skimmed by some1 who knows what they are doing + prepare and clean the bottom block up properly its ok. Getting a head skimmed, chemicaly cleaned, crack tested etc can cost around £150+

Have you found the FTE you want? can you survive without the car? I`d rip the FE out, clean the engine bay/paint it etc, find the FTE, forge it?, do some headwork on it?, get some mods on the go, keep the old FE head and do some porting + polishing?....then when the time comes put it in n insure it. a ) You will just waste oil, time etc.... b ) Depends on how cheap you can get it (what if thats in the same condition?) c ) Illegal d ) Illegal

It just needs a light cutting compound all over.....i was just about to ask for pics!!

I just need a decent polish + machine....if not i may have to get some of that megs mirror glaze.

Yup....i looked at the car before i clayed it n you can just see shit loads of feint scratches where they were using the neverbeenwashed fakelambswool mit...... I need to get a polisher if i want it to look spotless, dont have that many man hours to do it by hand.

I clayed the roof, tailgate, wings....just the doors left now (it was toooo cold) Must say its made 100% diff, so smooth n shiney when you look at it n all the shit that come off Going to tackle the swirl marks now....this is the main task!! (that funkin car wash place made everything worse!!)

huh? i thought it was this stuff....... http://www.horsepowerfreaks.com/viewimager...ifreeze_OEM_Red one of the customers presented us with this for there car http://www.sopertek.co.uk/mr2/service/forlife.jpg Which to get? also i`ve always wondered, u know you guys when you take the turbo out etc n rad do you keep the old antifreeze?

Exceeeelllennntt meet was looking forward to a long drive for ages, that road was amazing!....it was nice meeting you lads hope you got home ok? :surrender: @ bloo lol thanks buddy thank god i had it, it was fookin freezing! @ bourkey, are you going to get a clay kit?? (you seen the diff it made to bob, n tht was just a quick once over) @ dub....thats the first green starlet i saw before finding the site, it was a pleasure seeing it in the flesh its a real credit to you now wash it on a regular basis!!

That sounds like bourkeys can :surrender: :surrender:

Bit pricey at £23 odd...you get 3x small clay bars + a box for them, quite a big microfibre cloth, the detailing spray, and a small bottle of wax? He said he`ll be at mine from 11-12 so when he comes we`ll head down....i did the whole bonnet and if anything i can see the swirl marks more but its REALLY smooth and shiney it also beads all the water well. Will take some pics tomorrow :surrender:

It would be a pleasure working on ste, if you get the stuff I`ll ask rick to see if he wants to meet me at mine n we might head down to yours together at around 11ish or so? ill bash u a text when i leave, when are the rest arriving?

Think joz said...75w 90 Fully Synthetic for the gearbox + LSD

I think it will bring up some stuff but not to the extent it did on mine, as its never been looked after to same level yours has (the old dude before me loved car washes the lazy git) I musn`t forget your TTE stickers!

You get 3 small bars in the kit (3x2 inch) it feels like blu-tac, ill bring it round tomorrow n we`ll do a little patch on the bonnet.. It would take ages to do the whole car and good old british weather isn`t exactly helpfull...so what i propose to do is do the bonnet + roof and then all the other bits on separate occasions so its all at roughly the same stage then just maintain it.....not sure how long the clay will last too.
