both Vs looking great dude! Phil.

some very tasty work going on here dude, really liking the approach you're taking! keep it up! Phil.

People have been shouting about pics. so, here's 3. Ultra Spark leads and king lead - yes the bay is a mess, I know: http://s12.photobucket.com/user/nanglebadger/media/13%2007%2013%20Leads%20Rescueman%20bracket/DSC_0387_zpsca4e5508.jpg.html'> Rescueman: http://s12.photobucket.com/user/nanglebadger/media/13%2007%2013%20Leads%20Rescueman%20bracket/DSC_0388_zps3537849d.jpg.html'> OEM Din blank and aftermarket cupholders, yes I know there are boost controller wires needing tidied away: http://s12.photobucket.com/user/nanglebadger/media/13%2007%2013%20Leads%20Rescueman%20bracket/DSC_0390_zps5ce1bf41.jpg.html'> This afternoon I also tidied some wiring in the bay with some cable ties and fresh black electrical tape. I also wire tucked the bootlid, by relocating that stretch of the wiring loom in behind the inner panelling on the bootlid itself. much tidier. Phil.

great to hear you're making progress Chris dude!!!! hope this evening's building in the heat went well!!! Phil.

if i didnt live in NI, and lived nearby, I'd go. nothing wrong with fellow jap enthusiasts gathering and yarning about their shared passion for jap cars and comparing notes. good to see such invites being extended dude, nice one! Phil.

happy birthday dude! have a good one in the sunshine! Phil.

sorry bro didn't see your post. think so, but wont know til its on a ramp. she is definitely now leaking from both the left and right side of the engine. not massively, and only when warm. she got her fist bath in a looooooooooooong time today. then a quick couple of laps around the development, think i scared a Corsa with the BoV lol. 3/4 of the car has now been detarred, and the terrible paint job that was done on it last time has become even more apparent now I've had my head up close for a couple of hours. pish job. oh well. still need to detar the front, then its getting an HD Cleanse, SRP, and 2 or 3 coats of wax, then a dust sheet thrown over it to try and keep her semi clean. pesky Nitromoors is definitely coming through but not much i can do about that now. so, hopefully she'll be clean soon, then can think about what needs fixed next. Phil.

no start up puff on mine when the valve stems went. only as the OP described. Phil.

mine did this, was diagnosed as valve stem oil seals. prety sure Ro55ifumi had the same symptoms when his went too. Phil.

glad to see this legend will live on and be treated well! looking forward to seeing how u develop the car in your own style! Phil.

going. in. endless. circles. everyman and their dog has now had their say, in what is essentially a private matter between the customer and TD. From this point on I'd prefer it was dealt with privately; Mike has been active in the thread, meaning they aren't burying their heads in the sand, meaning there is no further need for this thread to be open save for folk to share their opinions on TD based on, wait for it, this thread. Thread closed. Phil.

nice work dude, its all in the fine details!!!! the tidy box is a bit of a prat to fit I agree, bracket is pretty awkward, but once its on it all works pretty well! well thought out by the Japs as usual! keep it up dude! Phil.

very interesting experiment buddy!!! really cool to see someone playing with an n/a again, its like going back 6 or 7 years reading this! keep it up dude! and pleaase report back on your findings with both manis! Phil.

welcome to UKSO and a huge amount of respect to you sir. what an excellent tribute to your friend! please keep us updated as you go with the project! and if you need anything, just throw up a post and I'm sure the UKSO masses will be more than willing to help where they can! Phil.

apexi one is way bigger. i'll see about borrowing my dad's camera and getting some pics later in the week. thanks again Gee. Phil.

scratch that, just had a look on ebay, loads available! now i just gotta determine the size of the apexi sensor! Phil.

good man yourself Gee!!! thanks for that! do u know if getting blanks / sensors is possible for them? Cheers, Phil.

Afternoon folks, I have a question for the UKSO masses. A while back I bought a GReddy/Grex oil filter relocator off SiCaln. The principle reason being that it would allow me to plumb in oil pressure and oil temperature sensors without having to fit one of those awkward bastarding sandwich plates. however, the kit does not consist of enough blanks, and the only apexi temp sensor I currently have is waaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyy too broad to fit in the hole. so my query is this...does anyone happen to know what fitment / thread size GReddy/Grex used for their Starlet equipment??? or is there a simple way to work it out?? I'm going to have to somehow find some blanks and probably a sensor or two to make this thing work, and I may need some form of reducer sensor, that has a small enough male part at one end to fit the relocator kit, and has a female part large enough to accomodate the Apexi sensor. solutions on a post card please! Cheers, Phil.

looks fantastic dude! Phil.

uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu-mazing! Phil.

photos cannot capture the awesomeness that is The Costa. glad you got to experience it for yourself dude, its an awesome place and Jay is a top gentleman! Phil.
