  1. Got the insurance coming up soon, so been looking for quotes, DirectLine would give me £501 (1yrs NCD), and it would cost a mere £177 more to get my learner g/f on the car also Good stuff, but reading the small print they won't insure modded cars for the under 25's (I'm 23 this year) so I phone up to check and yes, my alloy wheels (offical toyota ones, fitted at the toyota dealer) makes me uninsurable 1yr NCD, no accidnets ever, 3+yrs driving (this was my first year with my own policy), never broke the law, claimed dole and now supporting myself with a good job at BAe, the pe
  2. Suspension here also, performance before bling!
  3. MAF, yeah thats what I meant,......... It tells the ECU how much air is coming in, which decides how much fuel to give the engine, mildly useful for the engine ;)
  4. Just keep telling him your busy, after a few years the rust should of settled in and it'll fall apart before it gets enough speed to catch you ;)
  5. I thought the AE was an older version, I stand corrected
  6. Do a forum search the info is there! I've seen bug-eyed ones from p-s, I took to checking the reg of the cars while I was looking for mine, the model number is EE-111 I think
  7. Seen here ages ago, check out how well the rear door rams are fitted into the seats, the rear camber, and under the wheel arches
  8. There is a seal at the rear of the bonnet, black rubber thing
  9. Good stuff, read somewhere fuel cut happens at about 0.9bar
  10. I believe it does, just bear this in mind before you get the hacksaw out, a de-cat may fail the emissions check at MOT, so check that out first, or at least get an arragment where you can easily get the cat back in, or get a sports cat
  11. Look very good and street Mr Joz When you say 'Glanza Rear Splitter' do you mean a Glanza rear bumper or an addition?
  12. Don't K&N's have the filteration properties of a worn net curtain? Source: "High Flow" replacement airfilters section of this page
  13. Unluckly, or foolish of your mate, that doesn't look like the result of a low speed crash,.....
  14. Off e-bay, off a scrapped starlet, £28 + 9p&p
  15. That is unlucky, worse thing is they don't make them anymore, we're on a slow road to extinction Glad your in one piece
  16. I know it's wrong, but I kinda like the way the white bonnet looks on the blue car in the first photo
  17. I was trying to ed-you-kat's you all so you wouldm't be fooled in future, a lost cause it seem's
  18. I also missed my orginal point for posting, basicly the lack of any useful info makes it look dodgy, and do you really think a small 12v plastic fan can shift enough air at enough pressure to act as a turbo, the damn thing would just be a restriction in the airflow
  19. Snake Oil My maths may not be spot on but bear with me,..... A 4-stroke engine needs completes a cycle in 2 revs So the whole engines displacement is used in 2 revs (1332cc) Or half of the engines displacement is used per rev (666cc) So at the rev limiter 6000rpm (revs per Minute) will be using,...... 6000 X 666 = 3996000cc (cubic centimetres) Or 3.996cm3 (Cubic Meters) per minute Or 66600cc per Second Or 0.0666cm3 per Second Or 66.6 Litres per Second Or 33ish of those big bottles of your favourite cola per second Or enough air to fill the engine 50 times over a second (66600/1332=50) Thi
  20. JVC somethings, blue and £40 from halfords, they do 80's metal a treat
  21. look under starlet engine tuning on fensport, basic setup £302 (before VAT)
