  1. i like sleepers and i thought about it but idrees tempted me into buying a varis front bumper! not really sure how the fenders would look with the reflet front end tbh
  2. money doesnt grow on trees in glasgow dan hazzagrays was front end damaged, thats why he broke it
  3. sorry guys. im going with a glanza front end..... if i ever find a bonnet!
  4. me too mate lol, its not like me usually ive got parts on as soon as they come through the post or picked up lol ive got everything here for the conversion i could start tomorrow but i dont want to rush things, id rather get it registered/on the road and spend money on some other things 1st, decent brakes are a must! they are shit! the conversion will come soon enough anyway
  5. thanks mate, i used tigar seal. that stuff is wicked! aye mate delighted! just need to wait on the paperwork coming then register it asap. Cant wait to get out in it have not mate ill need to sort it out soon tho going to be a pain in the ass, i might just add the car and me to my dads policy to get it registered then start up a new policy after wards thanks mate!
  6. aye mate, sailed through. got an adfvisary on front brake pads but changed them when i got home. chuffed:d
  7. maybe because the last time it was washed it was in japan i think was really wierd tho
  8. some pics of the skirts fitted properly! its starting to take shape now, really cant wait to get the new front end on, got MOT 2moz and hopefully get it registered soon. really need to give it a wash too, ive not washed it at all. Was wierd yesterday there was loads of little beasties on the roof going nuts, but they wernt on any of the other cars roofs very wierd
  9. i have a set of wheels to put on but they wont be staying on for long, need a nice set of rims for this, a nice set of wheels makes the car but i cant find what im after yet thanks for the comments guys
  10. id love a set of miesters but i couldn t justify the price tag tbh. ill wait till the price comes down or until some1 makes springs for them. ill also have a look into those 1s in japan mate thanks for that
  11. fitted the skirts today! started pissing down now! theyve been on for a few hours now so they should be fine, just realised ive tigar sealed the little end cap on to the front wing when im going to fit the fenders im going to have to get it off and do it again lol Theres been a bit of a mix up with the export document, but i should have it within a week so im not really fussed because it has the mot on monday at 4 so it should be good to go as soon as the paperwork comes through. i wonder what plate it will be on? T maybe?
  12. now thats what you call a smokey burnout! :haha:
  13. when you tried those springs on the back did you try them on the ep85 shocks? or on GT shocks?
  14. thats only if you cut 2 much off, which in my opinion wont be a problem on the 4x4s. the rear shocks are a bit different to the fwd starlet 1's. the top mount part comes out higher on the 4x4s so there is less space between the top mount and the springcup so cutting a coil or 2 wont make the spring short enough to pop out. heres a pic it is a pikey way of doing things and i never normally would but its the only option i have atm, that or drivie around with its arse in the air as brad says its a temp soloution. Some1 is bound to come up with a shock/spring set up for the 4x4s and if they d
  15. damn right! knowing my luck id pay 700 odds for coilovers then a day or 2 later some1 will come up with something a little cheaper. theres going to be a market for ep*5 lowering springs as theres going to be lots more of them poping up within the next year, so im sure some1 will come along with an affordable set of lowering springs
  16. i dont think hes wrin doing it. ill prob do it as well with my 4x4. i just cant justify spending 700+ on coilovers right now especially after the money ive spent buying the car and all these bits. a lowering spring kit will eventually be an option but until then this is the only other option.
  17. not the best idea but prob the best option until a cheaper alternative to the miesters comes up cut them from the bottom mate try cut it to the same shape if you know what i mean Have you tried the lowering springs on the back yet? did it sit higeher than the stock suspension?
  18. looks loads better mate, that polish did it a world of good aswell! looks like a different car
  19. aye mate it looks the part it will still brighten up the bay, its your choice mate
