  1. try them and if all fails maybe a shifter from an ep91 (or do they fit?)
  2. can you post a pic of it, I might be able to help more then. but I cannot see why it would work on an EP91 shifter and not the 81... The corolla one wont fit. Did you get the selector cables from the G6 box, maybe the ep82 ones are just not long enough
  3. Reverse is right over and you need to trim out a brave amount to engage it, i did it too my first Glanza with no problems at all
  4. if its an STi will ya send me a "good" price for the engine delivered to Ireland, a mate bought one off me that needs an engine, if its good money might be interested in it
  5. Is it a GC8 Classic shape?
  6. will you send me a price delivered to Ireland lad
  7. Im interested in the engine mounts... are they for lsd gearbox or non lsd gearbox. pm me please
  8. Are you breaking the car lad? maybe we could still deal with the Varis bumper?

  14. Any machine shop could make you an alu adaptor plate
  15. can take on bombs etc but not Irelands paved road lol
  16. What he did lowering your wages is 100% illegal, an employer cannot lower your rate of pay with out first discussing and agreeing it with you! Also you should look through your employment contract (if you have one) and look to see if talking with another member of staff is an act of misconduct or gross misconduct. If it is not mentioned or is not listed with gross misconduct it is not viable grounds for dismissal. If you do report him, I gurantee he will shit himself as the laws have changed on this matter, it is now up to the employer to ensure that the dismissal was fair circumstances! I studied this stuff at college, I would safely say he owes you a refund in your wages big time! You were sacked unfairly! You should get a fair settlement. However if the judge rules that the employer offers you your job back then do not turn it down straight away as the judge will just see you as a money-grabber and your employer could raise that because of the current financial climate he cannot afford to pay a big settlement
  17. I would class this as unfair dismissal, the guy sacked you for refusing to do a job outside of your job description. Check with your local citizen advice centre but imo its definately unfair dismissal
  18. why not get a used glanza bumper and cut the bottom of it off and have it welded to your bumper
  19. posted this already for ya in another thread Prep: sand the bumper down starting with 180 grit sand paper to take the most of it off, then move to 220 and then to 400 to remove any sanding marks. (Make sure to use wet and dry for the 220 and 400 and use it wet) Make sure to get into all areas and corners of the bumper. Priming: Mix up the primer to hardener to what it says on whichever brand you are using, i tend to use Max Meyer or Upol. Give it a misting coat first and let it dry. Then give it another coat covering more of an area to what you did the first time. Finally give it a coat to cover the lot. Let the paint cure completely. Rubbing Down: Get an aerosol can and give the bumper a misting of paint and let it dry. Using 600 sand paper (wet and dry using it wet) Rub down the bumper to take away the misting of the aerosol can you just used. the aerosol can was just a guide to show you where you did not rub down. Be careful not to rub too much that you will take away the primer. Painting: Mix your paint appropriately... Waterbased - if there is no water already added to thin the paint then add between 15 to 30% and stir it up (how much water you add is up to how fine of a needle is used on your gun). Paint similar to priming - 1st coat is misting, then cover a little more and finally over the lot. Remember to do your edges first. To dry Waterbased paint a movement of air is needed not heat, you can use the spray gun to move the air around the piece but be careful not to move the paint. Solvent based paint - Some solvents require hardener some dont its best to check with whoever mixed the paint. If it does require hardener check on the tin/jar how much and stir really well. If it doesnt require hardener just thin it a little approx 10-15% again it depends on how thin the needle of the gun is and spray the same as above. Heat is required to dry this properly tho or a long period of time. Laquer: Mix the laquer as described by the manufacturer and thin accordingly using thinners... It takes very little thinners to thin out laquer. Again mist the first coat and do your edges and cover more with the second and finally cover it all, after you cover it all, I suggest you wait a little while letting it slightly cure and give it another coat. Heat is needed to cure this completely. Final rubbing down: After the laquer is completey cured, use 2000 grit Wet and dry sandpaper to rub it down make sure its used wet. After some light rubbing dry off your piece and you will see any high spots in the laquer, it will be like white sanding marks on it. Rub it all down until your laquer is flat. Dry and wash the piece and dry it again. Rub some cutting compound into it with a spray of water to get rid of the white sanding marks and finaly T-cut and Polish it. Any other questions give me a shout, i have covered this topic regularly on a few sites
