  1. i'll be pricing some up in the next few days.
  2. 120? wow, i've got one for sale for alot less than that mate
  3. bride/recaro frames are flat bases, so they'll fit pretty much any flat bottomed seat with little to no fabrication work needed.
  4. might be worth contacting either of these.... http://www.outlawdiscbrakes.com/ http://www.outlawbrakes.com/ ...and saying you have the Outlaw 2000 calipers, but dunno what spacer is required for your application (if you cant figure it out ).
  5. yeah i never understood it with the airbags, they say either abs or non abs, but they ALL fit without problems, so it's a real odd one that !
  6. yer may want a spacer, alot of the boys doing the celica gt4 caliper conversions are using spacers to space the disc out to fit correctly in the new calipers, only need small ones and they may have been used in japan with your kit but just not removed with the kit when it was stripped off the car
  7. yes, bride and recaro do, they'll be around 80-175 quid, depending where you get them from and what you want. i'm looking into bringing some more in, but they'll be a similar price as above.
  8. that was newera's car, thought it was a minter, but i didnt know the arches were rusty !! how bad are they?
  9. yeah k24 prob, k26's are a tad large for normal applications. TD04's arent laggy if setup correctly, plus there's about a million different variations of them. A friend of mine has a small TD04 kit which uses an adaptor plate (ct9 manifold), the turbo itself is a VERY small model, prob peaks at about 180-190bhp, similar size to a ct9, but will obviously offer more grunt throughout the rev range. compared to that, tom had a hybrid TD04 on his which pumped out over 270bhp on 'conservative' boost, that was a beast. lag is pretty minimal too, if you watch a few videos of people with them you'll
  10. ye no need wasting it where you dont need to, unless its just like, an odd fetish you could always try it out, just make sure you bang a few tanks of the 97ron+ stuff in (it does take a few good FULL tanks to take effect) and see what happens (after resetting the ECU), even then though it may be minimal and the only way to know the actual difference would be to slap it on rollers or to go back to a few full tanks of the lower RON stuff, but at the end of the day, if its perfectly safe on the lower stuff (its all gonna be relatively clean, lets be honest) then there shouldn't be a problem.
  11. did you try hitting it all with a hammer?
  12. yas, the originals being spoon's and racing hart's respectively.
  13. NEVER seen a rusty arch on a glanza mate, only reason it'd do so was if they'd done a very bad job of rolling the arch lip on it (if they've lowered it too much), i'd walk away otherwise mate.
  14. TD04 kits or a hybrid is prob the way forward, the are endless variations of the TD04 turbine itself you could use, and obviously the same with hybrids, i'm not sure which would suit you best but it depends what you're after. td04's can be replaced for pennies, but the kits themselves will be more expensive to begin with.
  15. ARC, thats the way it should be. them wheels are gash though, the rest is top, does look quite evil as mentioned above. not a massive fan of the centre exit zorst, but each to his own, it is a bit different to see it done on a starbo.
  16. don't worry, i won't
  17. mikey - no, you wont notice a difference, as yours is a UKDM model, meaning it'll be mapped for 95RON fuel. our imports are actually mapped for around 100-105RON, i'm happy to use 96RON though to be honest, its not caused me any problems yet and toyota's tend to be ok with it. Impreza's shit their pants if you use crap fuel, work it on 95RON and it wont last long at all, they really CRAVE stuff alot higher, for some reason they're far more sensitive than others.
  18. yeah thought it seemed a bit odd!! no worries, im sure i can find another set, they tend to usually go for quite cheap too if you know where to look. i actually found some more this morning on the east coast but they sold a few days ago, had crappy tyres on but the wheels themselves were mint. AVAST YE.
  19. aftermarket ones will be just across the turrent top mounts, as above, the 3-point one won't fit unless you have the mounting points there, in which case an aftermarket one will do you fine (although without aftermarket suspension, you won't notice a difference, except, it'll be more difficult to load it up with the brace there rears ones can be had from japland for relatively cheap.
  20. plus, unless yours has been mapped for 97ron+ (if its a UK model, it'll be 95ron mapped, anything sold in UK market is) then you won't notice a difference at all. The fuel itself might be a little cleaner, but it won't make a difference. I use Esso Supreme Unleaded (97ron) as in my opinion it actually makes the car behave better than V power, it just feels 'smoother' to me.
  21. they look nothing like te37's you pillock bloody wishful thinking there, hehehehe They do look good mate, if noone else has noticed, these are very popular with the pulsar boys, thats prob why they aren't often seen on starlets over here (i've seen several in japland but not many this side of the water). alot of these do the rounds in the pulsar circles as i said, so if another set pops up i'll be sure to get them advertised. just noticed you aint got wind deflectors either, don't think i've ever seen a V without them ?
  22. do paseo's have the floor bolts to allow fitment of the optional 3-point rear brace from starlets??
