i might be interested in buying a panhard rod. can anyone tell me if they are easy to fit and adjust when on the car? i know what they do but can anyone tell me if there is a noticeable handling gain. my car is lowered 40mm. cheers.

sounds like a clicking noise to be honest. read in an old post the problem could be an idle control valve? sounds like its coming from the fuel rail area near where the air inlet mani joins to the engine block. doesn't seem to be a problem when it running. but sometimes when i stop at lights and stuff the revs drop close to stalling then raise back up again. just sounds shit when on tick over so would like to stop it!

cheers mate. theres more lime green planned for under the bonnet as well. should look sweet if i manage to pull it off without it looking stupid.

is the sensor going into the inlet mani. or is it the MAS sensor that is in the cold air feed?

it stops when i get the revs up. sounds like its coming from the rocker cover area. im no engine genius so im a bit worried it could be the start of something bad.

when my car is on tick over it seems to be clicking very loudly. been doing this for a while and there doesn't seem to be any problems with the way my car is running. it just sounds a bit dodgy. is this normal, or has starving marving from southpark got stuck in there?

sounds like a good buy mate. i paid loads more for one with double that mileage! whats the bodywork like? get some pics up and let us know why you chose a starlet. keirz

thats gotta hurt.

if it didnt have that front bumper on this would be awsome. them wheels are sweet as hell. i love the way it sits. fooking well nice.

cheers boys. it was the shiney bit that sold it to me. just though it would be a nice addition cuz havnt seen anyone with one on. if it was cheaper yes but it is a wee bit pricey just for looks.

i agree that it could become a money pit scutch. but its so damn tempting to finish this car off as i feel it deserves it! my bro is with you on this one sparky. will be nice to keep it in the family. will also look sweet with two starlets on the drive. maybe i should just get a glanza front end and then il be happy for a while. then save glanza money and make the decision to buy one or get a conversion at a later date. the £260 may go towards a beer fund for the weekend!

ok joz the front end i meant bumper and lights. the cabon bonnet alone is £500. i thought about doing this when i seen the bumper and lights for sale on here for £200. was then gonna get the cf bonnet off ebay. after spraying this would prob be about £800. the rest were just estimates! off to bed to dream of buying more starlet parts now.

does anyone reckon this would improve performance much? at £190ish i would expect. it says 30% better cooling which cant be bad.

go for it and buy one mate. you can feel an improvement and it improves under bonnet looks.

maybe i should put the money away for my own pc then so i can get msn! was just rough estimates but still the point is still the same. why spend all the money on the n/a if ive already set my heart on a glanza in the next 6 months. (money dependent) i think my n/a is sweet but its not the carbon fibre'd, fmic'd, jdm monster that i could create spending the same on a glanza. want to sort handling out though.

i kinda push it. i dont go racing about dangerously but whever i get a bit of road i like to savour every gear a bit just to hear the noise as mine does sound awsome if i say so myself (and everyone else does) things i want. coilovers £600ish rollcage £500ish full respray £1000ish glanza front end with carbon bonnet £800ish bucket seats £400ish now thats alot of money to spend. what do you reckon i should spend the money on for performance/handling?

did you get it on or just sold it to save the hassle? getting a glanza is all ive thought about since i saw one so for me it is a must have. then an r32. ive got it all planned out!

i like it with black bonnet. yes would be better carbon but they dont do one for uk spec so black it is. i do agree on a change of wheels. if your going jdm the wheels are a massive part. but money doesnt grow on trees i guess. good work.

i think you should get lower profile tyres on your current wheels and lower it more. i think that would look cool.

i dont really want to get rid of my n/a but i want the power. im not really conviced on the turbo conversion as it would be alot of trouble to insure. my 16 year old bro wants my n/a so he doenst want me to buy a glanza just yet. i would want him to buy it but its unlikely he will be in a position to buy it before i get the money for a new one. i guess its £260 that i didnt have before so i wont miss it if it magically turns into starlet parts.

i would have prangers front bumper as it is. it already looks cool and doesnt really need the lip.

sold my old wheels finally, got £260 in the end which is not bad but they were worth alot more i just got fed up of trying to sell them. so what do i do now....... the sensible part of me says save it for a the new car...... the devil in me says nomad pillar pod and two gauges...... man i hate trying to save while i still have plans for my n/a, but i will never have glanza power if i dont. i kinda want to complete my n/a but the job will never be finished as there is always something i want, bucket seats, glanza front end with carbon bonnet, full respray, roll cage.......... the list is endless. i have about 1/4 of the money i need for a glanza so the end seems so far away. so do i cheer myself up with the £260 or save?

Please make this happen. i want to do mine with full drift style graphics

thats what i failed on on my first test. damn curbs. unlucky dude.

ive been after one for ages. hope they fit n/a. will look alot better than the gap at the minute.
