a few companies have had a model report made for the 97- now.

i voted for suspension also... i know what its like being stuck on standard setup, its comfy, but it doesnt inspire any confidence! but... if im honest to myself, the first thing i did even before washing mine was to put my old pioneer stereo in there, not because im big on ice or anything, but just purely because the original tape player got interference from the alternator... and it was sooo irritating. my 2p Rich.

those mani's came on jdm 5e's anyway lew. ;) i told ya so jim!! it is probably the ultimate 4e/5e engine upgrade.

;)

lol totally!! but i just had that same question asked sooo many time with my old car, its just nice to be able to brag about the fact that it IS a turbo!

happy birthday bud!

;) yeah, i still loved my n/a, but its just sooo nice when people ask me if my starlet is a turbo, i can say YES!!

looks ace!

hammerite works fine dude. its what i used.

awesome dude.... totally awesome.

as full boost comes on in the V the gauge goes right round to 0.7/8 bar, but as the revs increase the gauge gradually starts to read less and less boost... i take it this is the actuator not holding the boost then? would getting the hks actuator require anything else to run? sorry if im being a dumbass, but i am slowly learning!!!

yeah, i still get it from time to time... only hit fuel cut once though, i seem to get the light come on if i floor it from 3k rpm in fifth, but it has been behaving itself recently. same here buddy. always get code 34. Rich.

ok, well mones at 0.7/8bar is this safe?

yeah, im with shelly on that one... im still hanging over the toilet as i type this!!

what boost does the V run standard in bar?

defo looks better with it off!

happy birthday buddy.

geo might know...

yeah, but its all good until someone with a swift gti races one of the n/a boys!! (notice how i said n/a boys because im not one now!!)

i have this bov fitted to my glanza... it has two hose fittings on it, the one on the side is for the hose that leads to the inlet manifold, but the one at the top of the valve is hollow, but i have no idea what i was supposed to do with it? i blocked it off initially, but tonight i thought maybe it is supposed to be unblocked, so i unblocked it and its alot louder, and seems to dump at lower revs... what is it supposed to be? open or blocked? (it didnt seem to hold as much boost with it open, it seemed to reach high boost but then start to gradually drop as the revs increased, altho i could just be imagining things) also what reading is kg/cm2? is it bar? as my boost gauge says its in kg/cm2 (see below) cheers Rich.

the glanza s is quite different to uk spec, it has: 4branch inlet manifold yellow injectors different ecu runs on higher octane fuel (in japan) and a different ignition system

yeah, i was gonna go for black again, but i wanna go for a slightly different approach... i'll have a bash at them and if i dont think they suit i'll try something different! they will still stay as jdm as possable! i must admit mate, my pi springs on my old car were f*cking rock hard! so it is probably the springs, cause these are pretty reasonable. cheers buddy! yeah, i'll pm you the first incarnation of them when theyre done!!! i got the tanbe's for £200 fitted in part exchange for my old suspension setup (standard) i was looing into splashing out a bit more and getting some tein coilies, but i just cant afford it and the car he was getting them in on was expected in a few months, so i just couldnt wait that long!! i really do rate the tanbes... but ive only ever driven a car lowered on pi springs with standard dampers before!! so i dont really know!!! cheers phil, i did think that i may have problems with that, but i thought it may be worth a try!! o well!

yeah, thats them geo... im trying to be different again, trying to not do black, as its been done soo much now, but it'll be simular! cheers bud. yeah, the foglight needs to go, but i just cant find anywhere else to put it! any suggestions?? i was considering getting a n/a central brake light and wiring it up as a fog... ;) will do! ;) yeah it does, what did you do with the top attachment on yours bud? as i was a bit unsure what to do with it!! yeah bud, they would be your old rims... its a bit of a secret at the mo... and its gonna be totally different... as i said above, trying to stray away from black! cheers anywho bro yeah, i actually dont find them that bad... as i have the tanbe springs too... the ride is still quite comfortable, but stiffens up like a bitch in the twistys! these are the wheels im on about... (this is before the refurb by the way) Rich.

awesome! looking forward to seeing this!!

here is my favorite one of my old car, 2 days before i sold it! and i kinda like this one of my new car,
