  1. So, after some investigation with my mates, It turns out that my Glanza has been fitted with a 1 bar adjustable actuator, and its not hitting fuel cut, its missing at around 5K revs. My plan is to replace the actuator with a stock unit, and see where we are at from there! That's if I can get a stock actuator that's not being sold for stupid money!
  2. Hi, I need a stock actuator for my Glanza, one of the previous owners has fitted one with a 1bar spring and I'm missing on boost at around 5k. I don't mind paying or trading for the adjustable one? Let me know! Cheers, Nathan
  3. cheers guys! ill check that both haven't been put on top! is it possible to unbolt the damper, jack it up to decompress the spring and do it that way? I used this method on my MX5 but not sure if its possible on these? or am I going to need spring compressors?
  4. I only got the car on Saturday and this baby popped up on the sunday! where abouts should the washer be? would Halfords have one? any idea on size etc?
  5. I had a quick check of the springs when I jacked her up and changed the wheels, they look pretty new, green Tein lowering springs! Ill PM you Ollieh17 Cheers, Nath
  6. Hi, I don't suppose anyone has had this issue before? The suspension has got a little bit excited and poked through! How do I fix this? Thanks in advance! Nathan
  7. This happened to mine, I think I'm in the same boat lol
  8. If you get the mechanism out of a set of uk spec clocks in mph, you can use that, but you have to use the dial face to match! I'm going to look around for some mph dial faces in the same colour and type face as the glanza, and possibly see if I can get a guy to make a batch to sell on, you can pick up uk spec clocks for pennies!
  9. Mines way off! Going to try with the uk dial face on
  10. Did you use the Glanza dial face or the uk dial face?
  11. I'm just stripping down the two sets I have, it depends on wether the speedo converts it or something on the gearbox! I'll let you know as soon as I'm done!
  12. Hi, Does anyone know if Is it possible to use the internals (speedo mechanicals) from a uk set of clocks (ep91) in a Glanza to convert it to MPH? I know there's converters you can buy, but I have a spare set of Glanza dials and a spare set of SR dials...
  13. I'm glad I rescued it then! It's not a bad car!
  14. Cheap as chips! Needs a bit of work but was full of eBay and halfords specials! Lol
  15. Hi guys and girls, Some of you may remember me, or maybe not? I've had a few starlets and been a member here for a while but a relatively quiet one at that. I got my first starlet from my aunts, an ep91 Sportif in green (R428 XRJ) which I began to glanza rep before I purchased a GT Turbo rolling shell (H942 JLE), which I then stored for around a year whilst I bought parts to get her running. That didn't happen and I ended up selling it on eBay for a profit. I then had a break and decided to buy another starlet for my gf to learn to drive in, it was a blurple EP91 sol (R125 FBF) that she did

    Power Steering

    Hi guys and girls, Anyone removing their power steering? I really miss having it! Anyone want to swap? I've got a sol ep91 with a non pas rack that I'm want converting... I was told its a popular weight saving mod for the hardcore and they have all the parts I need and the sol ha all the parts they need! Let me know, or I'll grab one from the scrappy Cheers, Nathan
  17. You can get a bag of haribo with it
  18. I'll give you £5 posted? These are £15 brand new on the bay with free postage...
  19. Anyone know what the fuel prices are like over France and into the continent? If its a lot cheaper, what about smuggling some over? Lol
  20. There will be a small print somewhere on the line that covers them... I worked in a tesco express and a dude found a small dead lizard in the bottom of a pack of grapes he naught for his missus valentines breakfast (I took the return myself!) he got a letter back a few weeks later from tesco explaining that all of their fresh fruit and veg is screened before packaging, by the suppliers, and although this is a very thorough process, we or the supplier can't guarantee 100% of produce can be free of natural matter or foreign objects! He got a full refund by our store and a £40 tesco voucher fr

    Gym!

    I'm not into the gym or anything and never have been really, but back in the school days I played rugby for the town, started at the age of 12 and stopped at 16 (biggest regret!) We used to do full contact training twice a week and gym twice a week, before I stopped I weighed 9.5 stone and 5 and a half ft tall, and it was just plain muscle! I had a good body figure and a good power to weight ratio. Used to have a typical rugby players diet of purely what you want because you know when you were at training, you were gonna work so hard and be sick! I hit colts level ( 16 - 20 odd years old) a
