  1. It looks weird cus u fitted it ontop of an optional factory splitter??? Remove the factory one and fit the jam
  2. Why would u wana drive a Hyundai?
  3. Looked awesome yesterday Rob! Looking Much More Menacing! You thought about some rear spats or a rear lip?
  4. Sump pans are a wanker! Biggest mistakes people make: 1, de-grease the sump pan Lip and the lip of the block (mating surfaces) as sealant wont stick to oil. 2, don't overtighten the sump bolts, this bends the sump pan lip and pushes the sealant out the way 3, don't give the sealant long enough to set, Id leave it 24hours tbh. 4, make sure the sump pan lip is straight and flat, they bend if overtightened. Not saying you did any of these, but these engiens are a cunt for leaky sumps! Hopefully it may help if uve missed summink phil! xx
  5. Cant be that it would do it all the time if it was... It could be a fueling issue if it does it when you get to a certain boost level...
  6. 100% a missfire.... New Spark Plugs would be the first step, followed by a new king lead/set of leads, failing that new dizzy cap and rotatory arm... The above will fix your issue...
  7. Get shorty to weigh the fuckers then
  8. Love Mk1 GT Turbo's alot! There stunning! Im sure you wont hang about in making it yours and giving it a good scrub up! Keep us all posted!
  9. Have a read here fella! http://www.ukstarletowners.com/page/articles.html/_/tuning-walkthroughs/stage-1-200bhp-stock-engine-turbo-r35 Wiki is your friend!
  10. Obv if gears have been swapped but 95% of time people just throw them away and put another box in.
  11. http://www.gearboxman.co.uk/inforatios.html Allows you to use tyre size to work out what you should be getting using the ratio inputs from the 2 boxes..
  12. Speedo converters are all the same ratio... Tyre sizes will matter... My C52 box maxes at 98mph in 3rd.... 195 50 15 tyres aaddzz123 said his limited at 90mph in 3rd bang on on 195 45 15 tyres... Looking at his casting he has had a c56 box this whole time so... Its interesting...
  13. Ah so many earlier glanza's were blessed with the C52 then...
  14. According to the digging ive done online yes... but if so many people have them on pre-facelift glanzas then maybe its only later glanza boxes that are like this! Its all research tho, so please post up your findings... thats the whole point of the wiki afterall!
  15. someone with a pre-facelift glanza hit the limiter in 3rd please!
  16. See wat u can get in 3rd gear on the limiter folks!
  17. Put together some useful information for you lovely members! Differences between the two boxes and how to identify them apart! http://www.ukstarletowners.com/page/articles.html/_/drivetrai/c52-gt-turbo-vs-c56-glanza-gearboxs-r45 Hope this helps someone! Regards Socks
  18. Anything under 6kg each is light tbh... But when you have wheels around or under the 4kg mark that is just silly!
  19. Aware of this, but there are a lot of rims that aren't relevant and a lot of JDM rims missing too! Making a topic/wiki section just for us
  20. Same, quite surprising isn't it...
  21. Item For Sale: 15" OZ Superleggera Alloy Wheels Item Condition & Description: 15" 7J ET37 or 38 cant remember off top of my head.. Very Light! 1 Missing Center Cap All Straight, Clean, Not Kerbed... Price: £200 ono Pictures: Payment & Shipping Details: Paypal or Cash on Collection. Not really wanting to post them but can deliver or meet half way if expenses paid!
  22. Anyone got some stock glanza wheels to weigh? Didn't realise SR wheels were that heavy!
  23. Often overlooked when building a trick starlet... The lighter the wheels the less rotational mass... Check out this brief list of the most popular wheels used on starlets to see how yours wheels may fair! http://www.ukstarletowners.com/page/articles.html/_/wheels-tyres/wheel-weight-list-r44 If you have any other wheels that aren't on the list please get them weighed and post them up!
