thot it was gonna be my mates one and was gonna say no but it isnt haha. but i still say nooooooooooo. looks untidy and defo nowhere near worth the glanza. the toyo sports manis are terrible for these cars aswell. my mate had one and as usual the gaskets went in a day ( told him not to use em) and the bolts in the 4-2 joint snapped. also buying parts for and tuning a civic costs alot more than a starlet. get saving and get mapped ;) my opinion anyway lol

still a bit annoying but not really a big deal. exhaust parts for an n/a are cheap

yeh thats quite low mate so prob no need to go lower looks the part

mine has done this a good few times aswell. leaves me clueless to what everyones being saying or posting and have to go through all the sections

be a cool photoshoot with some decepticons and some autobots

was about to say about the chatter / compressor surge thing. chatters when you lift off throttle and the butterfly closes and the remaining air cant get through the B.O.V quick enough so goes back through the turbo blades. It doesnt turn it backwards or anything, your just hearing the air being chopped up so to speak lol compressor surge is different and does damage. it happens when your on full throttle so the blades are spinning thousands of rpm and because of reasons i cant really remember from when i read this the air isnt able to go into the cyclinders so goes back through the turbo w

complete nutter to just go for it lol id try it into a massive foampit or something haha.

i also had a mate who used to work at maccy Ds and i got pretty much the same treatment as you. order a mcflurry and get a bag with burgers the lot lol. got a mate who works for a bike shop aswell and since im a bmxer it coems in handy to get drastically reduced in price stuff then theres all the randoms mates with decent jobs that fix stuff around the house for free when it breaks lol

put a lottery ticket on and if you win take out 17k , go n see it and then set fire to it infront of whoevers selling lol. i was gonna say it could be easily saved byt then i saw all the interior aswell ha

good choice of car and colour welcome along mate

love the speed of this project lol looking good buddy.

siiiiiiiiiiick. good choice. they sound insane. guy round here got one after his tvr and wooooow.

they look awesome. can defo see me gettin some haha. i just hate when ya have to clean em.

your getting there. nearly back lol

well going by a thread i read the other day about peoples handbrakes being rubbish with rear discs and better with drums id say your probably already one step ahead. im sure you can get brembo drums for the starlets and get some new shoes and handbrake cables and its probably gonna be a fine setup. im not sure if the 4wds are the same drumbrake tho since everythin at the backs alot more involved.

as above mate. its the same as anyone going to work. I've got a mate that basically does the same but hes a bakery engineer for all the equipment and if hes working in inverness hes up at 5 to travel the 3 hours there. be thankful youve got a company car most likely with fuel paid . im a bricklayer and got put on a site 40 miles further than i used to be so thats 80 quid a day in petrol I've got to fork out to get 2 and from work.

thot u ment that. yeh you on about the cam gear tentioner. surely that wouldnt cause that damage. thats mainly there to take up any slack in the gears meshing together so its not noisy. yeh agreed on the doing it properly next time round. thats what im doin lol. blew my piston rings twice before

ooooooooooo sounds the sex.

ultimate engine destruction. id like to have seen the aa fix that at the side of the road

your takig this like a boss mate lol. when you say vvt not set correctly do you mean timing ? i hate seeming stupid but i hate not knowing what someone means more ha. hope you get it all sorted dude. car looks epic. first time I've looked through this build. Russell

you will not give up. the starletclub compels you to continue lol. its awesome and i wanna see it finished

lol sucks when that happens. you dont notice and then all of a sudden your like shit i have 2 many cars

@ Mo3 ill defo hit you up for some info dude since im a bit clueless and i was planning on going this year but i need to save alot first haha. ill send ya a pm when i know what im even gonna ask. probably sign up on ausc aswell

sounds interesting i hope there will be pics of all of this lol

oo make sure you get a pic of the block when its all polished . will look insane ;) never noticed your reply about the brakelines mate. i wouldnt mind the sizes of them dude as they look the part send me a pm or something if ya wish
