  1. I wouldn't bother with the low temp thermostat, it's not good if the car runs too cold and they can make that happen. Get a cooling panel or make one to direct the air towards the radiator and that should help a bit. However I wouldn't be worrying too much about the temps unless you actually have a gauge to show that it's getting high, the bigger manifold for the td04 will be putting out more heat due to the larger surface area so that could be what you're noticing - no point trying to fix a problem when there might not be one!
  2. Nice result, where did you get it dyno'd?
  3. That's not an official list, it's been doing the rounds for years. It is likely that there will be at least one ep in it though, since the glanza was in gt4.
  4. 15x 6.5J is just the diameter and width, you need to know the PCD and offset, PCD is the most important so the wheels actually fit on the studs!
  5. That doesn't include shipping - which is a lot! EDIT: I just logged in and checked the shipping - the total comes to £601.65, not so cheap now!
  6. It'll be out by christmas, I have faith! Here's some new screenshots just to show how awesome it will be.... :harhar:
  7. Welcome to the site.:harhar: A compression test would be the first thing I would do to give you an idea of the engine condition.
  8. Some great photos there and an even better turn out, looked like a really good meet, maybe on year I'll make it! :harhar:
  9. Take a look here: http://www.ukstarletclub.com/forums/index....d=shop&id=1 ...and here: http://www.ukstarletclub.com/forums/index.php?showforum=229
  10. It's actually a Kakimoto N1 ;) the R is the normal big straight exit one, it is indeed rare though. Looks like a nice base to do some mods on.
  11. It is a minimal chance that a bit would come off and blockanything but when there's that chance it's something I wouldn't risk. If it is at the turbo where it's leaking then a new gasket should sort it.
  12. Yes it could kill the turbo. Have you got any copper washers on there?
  13. That's my favourite photo too and I also love the wheels. Cheers mate, don't have the number to hand but I think it's in the "nifty pictures and part numbers" section. Thanks for all the comments guys, nice to see it appreciated.
  14. Turtlewax car shampoo (nothing special) then clay bar with a bilt hamber clay and polished with auto glym super resin polish. Very easy (I just told the girlfriend to do them ), they were easy though, just placed over the original fabric and folded round the back then stapled on. It's just some suede like material I got from an online fabric place, matchs the recaro's quite nicely. Thanks for the rest of the comments.
  15. I gave the glanza a good clean this weekend (clay bar'd and polished - although in the photos only the rear is done) and whilst the girlfriend was tinkering with her mini I grabbed her Nikon and took some photos.... Comments welcome
  16. Yup Well grinding away a bit of the power steering pump is just as annoying if not more than just removing the downpipe.
  17. This is the one from demon tweeks I posted on another thread: It's a much easier fit however you may still need to remove your downpipe and maybe turbo to be able to fit it and if you're wanting an oil temp gauge too you'll need somewhere else to put it.
  18. All the standard colours and codes can be found with a search..... http://www.ukstarletclub.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=6827 The colour above is purplish blue 8K9 (we need to update the photos in that thread). Gaz's ep I think is painted subaru blue, it certainly isn't a toyota colour.
  19. I think it is the 1/8bsp you want for the engine thread and hence standard oil temp switch, however I have 1/8npt on mine and it does fit but becuase the engine thread isn't tapered it doesnt fully engage but doesn't leak either.
  20. http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/Motorsport/G...Piece/1773/1861 Only thing is you'll need to block off one outlet and it advises that it's not the best for oil temp senders, I use one of them for the oil pressure though. Or one of these.... http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/Motorsport/G...ptors/1773/1847 But use a 1/8npt for the male as bsp and npt in that size is basically the same thread.
  21. Have you tried demon tweeks?
  22. It'll be fine, you'll only find out whether it creeps after fitting it, there's no definite answer but yeah get em on! ;)
  23. If you show us the one you bought we can actually see what it is!;) If it does crack it won't cause any problems other than a loss of power and a horrible noise, unless you're really unluky and a chunk falls off and kills the turbo. Finally yes a mani and decat will be fine at 0.7 bar, you only need to worry about the fuelling above 0.8bar
