161 Members have visited UKSO today so far. At this moment in time. 14:53 - 27/9/17. 32 of 70 Remaining to purchase! Unsure why everyone thinks this forum is dead or not used. The stats tell me a very different story

haha, it will be a shock when its running buddy! They are fast cars with a td04 on!

That's bang on the money! Great Stuff! ECU Bigger Turbo..... ;)

http://www.ukstarletowners.com/store/product/8-ukso-club-decals-x2/ In Stock Guys! Our Anniversary is coming though, so may want to hold on ;)

Looks minty fresh does that! Look forward to see what happens!

Morgeys has nailed the usual TS issues... Compressor suffers from Alternator bracket/wiring wear issues. Also if not maintained they produce less power then a stock TS!

1, Update coming on that soon! Not enough time in the day! 2, She is very accommodating... Cheers dude. There both prepped by Area Motorsport. Add 'joeburgess_94' and 'm15_kco@ on insta. You'll see! Cheers dude. Pretty basic setup tbh, see the spec above in the thread. Generally N/A cars dont struggle with temps as much as turbo'd cars..... Anyhow..... Got my Grex Oil Cooler fitted now! Its certainly sorted out the oil temp issues. I cant get temps above 90c now hehe At Cadwell on the 13th July. So we shall see how she does!

holy shit. that is cool!

Is it a real tight bend off the gate exhaust port? IE does exhaust gas leave the gate immediately into 90deg bend?

So, before the 3rd track day this year, the car needed some improvements! First off being Brakes. The stock Toyota Brakes were great on track but after a day, they sounded dreadful, it had taken its toll! They wouldn't have done another.... The discs were fine and in good condition. but the pads not so much! So thanks to Amjad.... The noises went away and these things are shockingly shit when cold but when up to temp.... Jeez. You can feel the back go light, mor

Well. Its been nearly two years since this thread has been updated.... SO! Here goes! The car has been parked up for a year while ive been busy with other projects and various other duties. I decided I wanted to get on track more, this thing was laying around so decided, sod it. Track Car. The thing was already reasonably spec'd, few tweaks here and there and she would be ready! So gave the thing a bath. The current spec list was: Power Getter Exhaust Decat Pipe HKS Actuator 0.7bar HKS Mushroom Filter 50mm Springs & Standard Shocks FMIC Kit Powerflex Rear Gear

If you going to cut up any inlet. Look at the Corolla one. For a bolt on 10bhp. 85ps instead of 75ps.... Id say the corolla one is a bit small too. Cant see why it wouldn't work tho.
-
If you had cracked piston ringlands. There would be a much more dramatic difference in psi on that cylinder.
-
haha. Had some more practice today and getting pretty good. Gonna be a while till Im back on track tho.... Effort.
-
Good Question! Just wondering isnt one tho im sure. lol
-
It wont tell you if its been scrapped or not.... You can ask the DVLA for a keepers details if you have a VALID reason....
-
On a turbo that size it depends on the boost really. Over 1.4bar+ you want to be running something big... Tial or Turbosmart do some Big Valves that will cater!

Both the Grey & Red EP3's are 210-215bhp. (Low Miles, Gruppe-M Intake, Cat-Back Exhausts & Fully Stripped Out (No Carpets, Roof Liners, Plastics. etc)) They are very well prepared. On a bigger track they will walk away from this GT Im sure. Yeh, the GT is very basic. Even with my lack of racing driver talent and with a very basic spec GT, chasing something like that is fairly respectable.

Hasn't moved this year. Have so much money in it now that using it is always a worry lol. Especially with the quality of some of the driving I have seen on track days recently! Crash this GT I can just reshell it. No Harm Done. The Glanza has pretty serious fab and mods to make a re-shell very expensive and time consuming. Might change but for the time being, cheap thrills! May change someday but for time being.... Very impressive. Up there with AD08's! I got a great deal on mine, £200 delivered pretty much! Which is awesome! When you get them up to temp. I was ver

This is true and I have been practising. Size 13 feet do make it more difficult tho tbh im just being lazy..

Had some fun with some mates yesterday. I live 2 miles from Blyton Park, so can go a little harder then normal without worrying about getting home lol. They both have some seriously spec'd EP3's. (Red & Grey). Don't expect miracles. Its only lightly modded. Engine: Exhaust, Decat, FMIC, E-Manage Blue Mapped to 1bar. Stock Engine & Turbo. Chassis: Whiteline Rear Anti-Roll Bar, Whiteline Front Camber Bolts, Alignment. 195/50/15 Federal 595RSR.

280bhp. Very few people have had failures. Failures come when you start to run over 300bhp+. Its always 3rd gear. At that power level you can spin the wheels psychically coming on to boost and when it starts to bite traction is when the stress comes and you'll strip it.
