  1. I agree with this but add a boost gauge too so you can keep an eye on things . Bourkey
  2. YEY!!!! The powers of persuation . Bourkey
  3. Dear oh dear oh dear. Be careful as they are known to go wrong in less than a week. Some even on the way home from the purchase. Bourkey
  4. True. Unless you have a recond unit like mine then chances are it will have a crack in it. Most don't matter though as they are only surface hairline cracks. People say they still hold boost fine with a crack in as well. Use super glue Sparky . Bourkey
  5. Tut tut Sparky. It's that lead right foot of yours . Im not saying the porting is the sole reason the MPG has gone up but im sure it has helped a great deal by freeing up any restrictions in the exhaust side. The more free flowing the exhaust side is the better mpg you get. Any interuptions in the flow will cause your MPG to drop . Shame you couldn't port it due to the crack. I did notice a good difference. Bourkey
  6. White Paseo dials would be better ii think as the Glanza ones are for the 4EFTE. There is a tutorial somewhere about how to fit Paseo dials into a Starlet. As for the wheels i think you can lower it 40mm but it may catch a little. Bourkey
  7. Good planning could easily see the swap done in a weekend. I did mine from Friday night and finished Sunday afternoon. Bourkey
  8. Looks very nice mate. It is screaming out for a Glanza bum . Bourkey
  9. See . Craig has one now. A fixed one and he noticed straight away . Bourkey
  10. Im sorry but this is now my favourite GT. I love everything about it mate. The stance, the wheels the front lip. Perfect mate. If i had a GT it would be identical to that. Im coming over to nick it . Bourkey
  11. Im so JDM i smoke flares Bourkey
  12. It will be all the WD you sprayed then. Usually it does smoke for a few miles at least. I also found this out the same way . Bourkey
  13. Yep you need new gaskets everytime you take it apart. I learnt this the same way . Bourkey
  14. Mark's shopping list: Reverse scoop Rear ARB FTW Bourkey
  15. No kiddo i copied you with the TRD ones . The JDM one was my idea so ner ner ne ner ner!!!!! . Bourkey
  16. Right im going to aim to beat 320 just so i can beat you at something . Also a quick note on a little fault today. I drove the car yesterday to work and there was a knocking noise. I took it easy coming back home and left it overnigh as i was tired. Woke p and jacked the car up straight away. Less than 10 seconds under the car and i spotted the fault. The engine mount on the passenger side had 2 of the 3 bolts missing and the last bolt was halfway out. The engine could have dropped at anytime. Im pretty dam lucky. I have done a good check round the whole car to see if i can spot anything else
  17. Copycat with the JDM sticker Bourkey
  18. I've got a really giddy right foot though . Im going to do an eco tank to see what i can get out of a tank. I'd probably be able to get 300 if i tried. I'll have a think about them disks and pads as they do look good when i saw them. Bourkey
  19. *Update* Firstly after running the car for a couple of weeks with the work i did to it i am very happy. It seems to like it more when i push the car hard instead of struggling. And motorway runs seem to be more effortless especially getting to motorway speeds. Also because the CT9 spools earlier there is less of a bang when it is at full boost as it comes in at a steady pace instead of one hit. This helps with the wheels spinning problem i had when it hit boost. Especially on wet roads. Doesn't do it as easily now. Also i now get over 250 miles out of a tank . This is with driving a bit quic
  20. Super glue . The answer to all your problems . Bourkey
  21. Very tidy car bud!!!!! I love the wheels on it they suit it really well. Bourkey
  22. Im desperate to go to this but i just can't . Car isn't fully set up until the 4th of April and i wouldn't be happy taking it on the track at the moment. I'll make the next one whether is is UKSC or TGTT for sure . Bourkey
