Starlet__SR

It shouldn't matey, I run some tein s techs, on 195/45/15's, never had no problem, and there's still loads of room, I have a panhard rod if you want Damien

Remove the split pin and castellated cap, loosen the hub nut which is a 30mm, remove the two bolts that hold the hub carrier onto the shock absorber, swivel that out of the way, at the same time, gentley remove your c.v joint from the hub, remove clips from the boot, cut old one off if need be, wipe away any excess grease, get someone to hold the driveshaft as you knock the back of the c.v joint with a soft hammer (copper, nylon, hide), the c.v joint will eventually relieve itself of the spring clip, should just pull off after that, give it all a good clean, check the splines, fit new boot ont

It's the T series engine, so the head gasket isn't as prone as the K series. Thats where people tend to worry, over something that it isn't Damien

I'll refrain from fetching the paintball guns lol Damien

Loctite? Spring washers? Are the mating surfaces reasonably flush?? Damien

Something like a TD05 16G will do you fine for that kind of power. Damien

Lol, sorry matey, would have helped as much as I could, they won't go again for a long time Damien

The wheel bearings can't be tightened up, all the pressure goes on the inner race, you'll have to fork out for new ones, but if you want, come over to mine and we can do it over here, got all the tools to do the job, got access to a press aswell, it's pretty easy, done it a few times already lol. Pm me and i'll give you my mobile number if interested Damien

Welcome to the site matey, get some pics of the SR up lol. Damien

Worksop, was a guy driving Damien

Silver quadlight spotted on mansfield road today around dinner time??? Damien

I've got emanage blue for when I convert, because i'll be running in the forged engine on the ct9, then moving onto the TD, plus i'll always have scope for further tuning, as for the mapping, it's just something you have to bite the bullet with. |Damien

I've got a set of good condition glanza injectors if you're interested. Damien

If you want a decent power output, why not go for a TD04 hybrid? Damien

How about going for something like a deep blue? Like bayside blue off a skyline? Damien

Cheers:) So would need a flywheel aswell as the clutch, sods law the engine I bought was from an auto:( lol Damien

Aren't evo intercoolers supposed to be a good mod? Damien

The 106 club near me can't keep up in their little quiksilvers, there's only the gti that does lol, but comparing to more powerful cars, they will seem slow. The starlets are a great little car to start with, they may not be the best, but for what you get, they're great, on the way home from work I race my workmate in his 140bhp golf, he may have the advantage on straights, but corners I can leave him for dead. Which in all honestly, winds him up to high hell lol. And most cars are boring in standard form, unless you're paying silly money, it's little things that alter the characteristics,

Was I comparing it to a GT? Moving from a 106. It will be faster. And I will have a turbo'd starlet soon, i've owned turbo'd cars before, both my corsa's were running circa 300bhp, so I do know what power feels like:) And remember, it's not all about power, a well driven car will give a powerful car a good run for it's money. A n/a starlet is quick for what it is, considering the engine size and weight. But it's expected to get those kind of comments from you being a turbo owner:) Damien

Lol, you'll love starlets, you won't be driving it slow for long, they're flying machines. Are you keen on the look of an SR? Or do you fancy something different? Damien

You'll find it's cheaper in some cases to turbo it, not the same with all cars though. Damien

Aim for an Sr, but if something pretty good comes up in the mean time, go for it:) Damien

It's each to their own matey, I prefer the ep91's, suppose it's the round clear shape that does it for me, I do like the look of GT's, but not keen on the aggressive look. But then again, I love some retro cars, I love nova's lol, I could go on for age with a list of old cars I love. Damien

Idea behind the SR is there's pretty much nothing that needs doing to them, they're a well sorted car from standard, and just remember, us SR owners have a rev counter, so NERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR Damien

Get one then lol, if you wanna drop me your msn I can always let you know of any for sale. Can always advise you on what to look for aswell:) Damien
