  1. If you look at the top result on the howmanyleft page.. Starlet 1.3 That figure went Upwards after 2004 Suggesting, imports ;) I wonder if the person with the starlet DX knows its the last one? lol
  2. The charcoal canister can be removed and the pipe to the fuel tank can be left to atmosphere... No point changing the tank Ryan, just change the pump inside OR buy a 255lph pump.... Just cut and solder the connector for the fuel pump assembly. All the colours match and are the same... Easy Peasy! Also, the Wiring Loom on a Facelift Starlet go thru into the engine bay behind the engine AND in the passenger footwell. On a Facelift starlet they go through ONLY in passenger footwell... Hope this helps!

    Shhh you. I know where you live. At the moment.....
  4. If the car has overheated and you've continued to use it while it was way too hot then that can do the headgasket... Make sure you've re-bled the coolant system.. But if the problem persists get a leakdown/sniff test done to determine the health of the headgasket!
  5. hehe Well, didn't see this coming to be honest... The Crank Seal has been replaced twice now, and it still has a very slight weep. So Ricky did some investigation work end of this week and found that it was ON BOOST driving that caused it to weep. Suggesting that the higher boost pressure, (2.2bar) is giving us much more crank case pressure, forcing oil past the seal... So the rocker cover came off.... The Internal Baffle was removed, then we could see just how blocked and gunged up it was! Yep, that's disgusting. Its an area you CAN NOT get too to clean out unless you drill the baffle

  7. Ill swing by if I remember tomorrow Its.... Interesting.... Tbh I haven't had a proper chance yet to play with setup/tyres/sizes.... But atm, wheelspin is a bit crazy... I am enjoying it IMMENSELY at the moment, the love is coming back bit by bit! Loving it!
  8. Nice to chat to you bud, even if it was just briefly! Forgot to ask if you were on here!
  9. http://www.s314kba.co.uk/leaderboard/ Validated. Most Powerful 4E-FTE on Pump Fuel to Date.... Well Done Aaron!
  10. Cheers Chaps! Don't like that video actually as I screwed up my shift into 2nd gear lol! Ill take some more when I get chance! Anyways.... Carpets all back in. Cleaned up most of the interior! I still need to do the glovebox and clean all the rest of the interior! All in good time!
  11. About time this stunner got an fte! Good lad! Done ALOT of these conversions myself... Your best off stripped the seats and carpet out and putting an entire glanza loom in Ryan! You'll need to solder up the fuel pump connector and the Glanza tank is different tho! Bar that, easy peasy!

    Foot rest

    If you look at the brochures... They did the Pedal Set as an option and the matching footrest as a separate extra... I have them both...
  13. If its an Import.... No Coding Needed If its a UK car... Coding will be needed!
  14. If u get a meter on voltage... earth the earth probe. and put the positive probe on the RPM signal wire... You should see the voltage sweep/change as you rev the car? Best bet is to get some mk2/3 clocks butcher them and YOINK the tacho element and hope and pray its the same!
  15. Are you planning on running it in NA trim at all? Iron out the kinks, get it perfect. Then boost it.... Or just get it home, boost it map it... Go for it? Looking good tho Rob, looks like its going to be a weapon of a Honda! I mean Starlet...
  16. Sounds good bud, its hard to get across sensation of a car in a video! Ontop of that, heightened by the majority of gopro's have terrible mic's so they sound dulled,muffled. Im sure its a weapon tho bud!
  17. That's gonna make a difference Jay! Looks much smarter too! Good job, love this thing!
  18. Oh Dear! Not a good start to what should be an awesome car! I'm sure you'll make it a minter, like your old mk3 used to be! Keep up the hard work!
  19. Cheers Chaps Liam - Fine by me bud! Carpet is back in now, gonna clean the rest of the interior and get some paintwork done I'll get some decent pictures when I've detailed it!
  20. So.... Head Stripped Down 1 Valve & Valve Seat Replaced All Valves Cleaned & Inspected Head Skimmed & Pressure Tested Brand New Athena 1.2mm MLS Headgasket Brand New ARP Headbolts Brand New Custom Spec Garrett GTX Billet Wheel Turbocharger All Built up and Mapped up! All thanks to a fucking spark plug! Well, the cars back! At Last! Collected it yesterday afternoon! After a good clean... I asked Ricky to take it to the same boost pressure as before as I just wanted the poor thing back to enjoy for summer... I also said if he can get any of the torque back that I lost on
  21. Hope it makes the power you want it too! Im guessing 420-440bhp if your going into the 2.15bar+ zone
