You can get adapter bars for many seats from the manufacturer of the seats.They may be universal ones for the starlet.
-
Ah thats not too bad then,gonna order one next week i think.
-
Yeah they are mate,a cast one from Roadrunner in OZ is the best way avoid it happening again,but i aint got $700 aus to get one! Stainless steel mani is a common choice but they too can crack!
-
Bin having a few probs with the car for a while now,poor idle,stalling when hot,bit of a lack of oomph at times.Now have found the problem,after a wrestle with a few rusty bolts on the heatshield(solved with a big hammer and cold chisle ) Theres a dirty great crack in the manifold! ARSE! Best get on to Mr Burwash for a new one i guess!
-
Yuk! I just puked at the sight of that! Makes it look like a fiesta in the top pic! Would go down well in lax power or fart car mags though!
-
Welcome hope you enjoy you're stay,what bits can you supply to us then?
-
Car looks good mate,that air feed you have will go down the back of the rad and attach to the plastic stone guard in the middle at the bottom below the car.Thats where i got my cold air feed.
-
Cheers bud,they're great motors!
-
Did it yesterday.was no 157
-
Good luck with the test,drive like a grannie for it.Then you can really learn how to drive once you pass!
-
Good choice! You won't go wrong with a jap car,especially a starbo! Once you go jap you won't go back!Welcome.
-
Got a wet footwell by any chance? Check your water level in the rad, could be your heater matrix has gone. It's a bugger to fix if it is the matrix i've heard.
-
Aint got it anymore,it got badly damaged by the bonnet flying open at 50mph on the test drive by a potential buyer! £2000 of damage,its a big ol bonnet on them,some muppet in london reckoned he could fix it cheaply for his 18yr old son so he bought it!!! Don't think he realised a new roof is only available from nissan,and you can't insure one if you're under 25 in many insurance places,oooh thats gonna cost a lot!! Real nice car to drive fast or just pootle along in comfort,Bloody scary in the rain though, very tail happy!
-
Was talking about new price,the cheap ones are usually kerbed to buggery by folks tryin their hand at drifting in jap land! Nice wheels for 3 spokes,not my cup of tea though.
-
Had a look for my house,map is about 6yrs out of date! My house is building site!
-
That sounds mental!
-
Cheers mate,I was never a big fan of the 3 spokes either till i got the car with them on,loadsa people wanted them off me because they're so light! Thought about selling them when i found out how much they were worth £1600-£1800 new I miss the car but not the fuel bill or the 17-18 yr old knobs who always want a race with their bloody corsa or saxo!
-
I wish we could get tennents in the pubs down here! One of the things i miss from scotland,at least we get irn bru though!!
-
Well you're the only one who's said that! Everyone else who saw it in the metal liked it!

http://i91.photobucket.com/albums/k282/pw_910/midge004.jpg My old toy before she was so brutally ruined! Bomex bodykit, 17" Advan racing alloys,an exhaust you could stick your head in,apexi air intake.All attached to a beautiful sounding straight 6 engine! MMM nice! http://i91.photobucket.com/albums/k282/pw_910/midge015.jpg After the little miss hap! Part of £2000 worth of damage to bonnet and roof! Lesson,ensure any future buyer shuts bonnet properly before going for a test drive!

http://i91.photobucket.com/albums/k282/pw_...boutpics012.jpg Any ideas why my number 4 spark plug looks all skanky and rusty when the rest are ok? Could it expain why it idles a bit rough? cheers

Looking at the way the pipes come out of the cooler they are angled slightly down so i don't think it would be that much of a problem.But like you say a bit of silicone hose would sort it if it was a problem.I'd like to see if they are a 90 degree bend on the inside of the pipe, it's not like the air will stop flowing if it hits the bend anyway,i'm happy to give it a go.
-
I'm up for that dave,let me know when you got the funds.It's handy that we are only a short hop on the motorway apart.Badsanta you're in bristol too aint ya?
-
I was looking at that one too,works with the a/c in place too they reckon.
