therrrrrrrrrre she blows. i'll get some pics up of it on the car sometime soon.

well, from the sounds of it mate you really should just buy my whole car.... those are the pics from the meet.

if you can find one mate they're wicked, look good. they're the only one designed to fit directly to replace the tmic, so ye, for the time being its a good bet.... i would like to go for a fmic eventually, but i wasn't really planning on going too crazy with the mods.... i'll get the bov, suspension and preferably a JAM/SARD ecu, then see how it goes, will prob just up boost a little then stick with that, as the arc ecu is ideal for the self learning ecu's. plus it looks sexual through the vent so ye mate, if you can find one, they're good, but they are stupid rare, and if the person who's se

ye exactly, they're little cheap and cheerful hatchbacks, so anyones gonna be driving em, although the majority driving stock uk ep91's are of the older generation.

yes i do have a ducktail mate, look at my signature pic.... and it was on at the tatsu meet, and was taken a picture of at the tatsu meet, so god knows where you were looking! i wont be able to make the next one, as i'll be on my way to torquay, although dave's going in his silver glanza, and i'll definately be at the next one if i can. also, ye its a turbo, and its an actual glanza, none of this conversion crap....

to be fair, uk n/a ep91's are old grannies cars really, its rare you see anyone else driving em, whereas the glanza's are so different in appearance, they're hardly distinguishable as a starlet to your every day joe blogg, although alot of people do think they're micra's from the rear....

ye i know where you're coming from, and if the rx7 cooler sat that much out of the way, allowing enough space for a fan, then it may be worth it, but i'd probably be dubious as to how much space there is to play with under the bonnet with that massive bloody thing there.... hahaha the arc isn't actually that big, in fact its very small, but its alot thicker than the stock one, and is obviously CONSIDERABLY more efficient, especially where its situated. i should get some pics soon...

hmmmm yeah i can see what you mean, but i do not really thinkg how that'd help apart from when travelling at low speeds, because the airflow travelling over it when moving quickly would be enough to either stress the fan, or cause it to just be ineffective, as it could be fighting against the natural flow of air. its like, say, having your computer fan then sticking a vacuum cleaner nozzle up to it, its enough to slow it down or even stop it, which will obviously put alot of stress on it, and at the end of the day, when you want cold air on your intercooler, do yuo want a bloody great lump of

me too mate, apprenticeships are bullcrap for wages, but well, least i know i'll take a jump to a bloody huge salary when im qualified, its just a bitch having to wait in the meantime, working as a bloody slave basically.... aaanyway, ye the arc bov's are very rare. i was told by uk companies that sell them new that they're all universal and there isnt a japanese fitting kit, but one popped up on the jap auctions which included a starlet fitting kit, so i had to have it. They're £260 from uk online store just for the bov, as a universal item, comparing it to HKS SSQV's which sell for l

i'd guess so mate, these ARC ones are good for quite a few more psi than stock, im guessing up to where the ct9 will run out of puff, around 15psi or so, in which case a fmic etc would be the best bet. it is larger but its just the positioning of the rx7 one mate, as it wasnt designed for it they dont sit central or even in a position to allow alot of airflow over them so they arent perfect for the job, but they do fit on and are obviously larger, so maybe try getting some extra cooling to it using some ducting or something may be a good idea.... and ye, it was a bit of a bargain, plus its rea

£180 delivered if i remember correctly, which considering they still sell for over £700 brand new, aint too bad! especially considering it was in very good condition.

got a bargain lucky find on ebay, was in perfect condition too, including all mounting parts, and blue rear connecting hose. but ye, these are considerably better than the RX7 ones, they're smaller, but they're so much better positioned its unreal.

yeah..... ....but mine was easy enough to find.

ah nice, free stuff is good, and IIRC i saw you at the tatsu club meet, i was there with dave who has the silver glanza, i was in the black one next to his, we were parked behind your car.

these dont sit perfectly, as they dont allow good airflow through the vent, due to the size and because obviously they werent designed for the starlet.... .....unlike the ARC TMIC's which fit perfectly in standard location, so standard pipework, and allow MAXIMUM air to flow over them through the vent, they couldnt be positioned better really, its the real next best thing to a FMIC.... just my 2p.
