Apparently they're only rated to 40watt anything higher and they might crack...

If you don't need the space a full size radiator is better than the civic one, people go for that so there is space for a larger turbo.

It won't just plug in anyway, will need wired in as it's a piggyback.

Built by a scientist! Awesome. I should nip along to Perth to have a look!

Shopto delivered my copy yesterday too. Similar but good so far, the handling is just right though, driving in the cockpit view the car handles how you would expect it to- the way they move under braking and power understeer, lift off oversteer etc The glanza and hundreds of other cars are still "standard" models ie not fully detailed and the info about the Glanza annoyed me - they go on about the base model being the REFLECT and how the glanza has an LSD as standard... suppose they can't get everything right!

Why are people bothered by this? All that is happening is they're getting rid of a piece of paper which you have to stick in the window of your car and you will now have the option to pay by direct debit but can still pay the full amount 6 or 12 months if you wish. I've been wondering why you still have to use a physical tax disc for a while now, everything else is electronic so it makes sense. The only problem I have with it is that I won't know what to do with my thundercats tax disc holder!

I've got a genuine TRD one: £25 ?

Razo bits can be bought in Autobacs, so gear knob and pedals - that's what I brought back. Or you could go for a ridiculous dildo gear knob! TRD dress up bits too, rad/oil caps can be had from there.

Very sensible being patient and doing it properly. If the gasket is a decent one - not the cheap toyosports type ones then it should be ok to re-use, just get a new stud and you'll be good to go.

7/16" UNF as above pretty much all seat belt bolts are the same.

It would point to the engine breathing heavily if it was filled with oil however if it's mostly clear liquid then it's just condensation, it would fill quicker in cool weather but still sounds a lot. Smelling of petrol is normal too!

Have you looked behind the plastic panel in the boot? They're standard not optional....

Not a chance at that price.

Search for ABS reset, the sensors are sensitive and can show errors when knocked, usually they just need a reset.

Just turn the pump around in the holder?

No.

Chizfab is lochgelly aye, he does a lot of the drift boys cages. Could be an idea but tbh I probably won't be able to get mine until later next year.

Cool, just let me know.

Ouch! Well this is the place I'm looking at getting one:http://www.chizfab.com/services/rollcages/ Their "list price" is £850 for a basic 6 pointer with one diagonal, welded in. I'm sure there will be other similar places down south that can do it cheaper.

£2k?? nah.... http://www.customcages.co.uk/Rollcage/LoadRollCage.castle?manufacturer=Toyota&model=Starlet%20EP82%20Clubman&type=6%20Point Even that isn't the cheapest you could find one, under 1k easy for a basic one.

Yup cut two slits in the ring with a hacksaw, that will release it and then push out easily - certainly wouldn't need the beating you've given it!

You can see the turbo on the passenger side if you look closely, it actually looks like a top mount manifold but with a remote turbo and the exhaust running across the bay to it, strange but guess it's a tight fit! Looks like a very tidy conversion, would be great fun too!

There seems to be lots of "horror stories" about diesel beemers but the most are regarding the 320d, the 330d is much more reliable. I've had mine for a year and half and 30k miles with no major problems, there are a few "preventative" maintenance things to do though. I would do the swirl flaps for peace of mind, it costs £25 for the blanks and they're easy to change, you also want to change the oil separator for the newer "vortex" type as the old style gets blocked and kills the turbo, also a good idea is to bypass the egr valve instead of filling the inlet with exhaust crud, it will brin
