Fair enough and thanks again - well I've got it down in the notes for that kit...in fact I'll edit the title of this thread methinks! Can do - is that for your car? (what does FTW mean by the way? I always assumed it was a ByTheWay typo in the past but I've been seeing it loads!) What size Final Speeds do you have again?

This code works on other forums where they have a "youtube" button just like our "image" and "link" buttons etc - I can't see anything like that here. (shifts to html and pastes code) and....nope. This is the code they use: any way this can work? 'tis handy... <object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4D2bwkmz5hI&NR=1">'>;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4D2bwkmz5hI&NR=1"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4D2bwkmz5hI&NR=1"type="application/x-shockwave-flash

Cheers, should do - I didn't expect the EP82 to have two versions! 'spose that's good in the short term though....as that means this first 55mm WMS kit should fit the 92-96 EP82?! Yep! Also just sorted my "common testing alloy"!!! £15 + £15 (hmmm.....) postage, gotta love eBay!
-
RWD transit I hope!!!! No it's not big, no it's not clever, and no it wasn't me! PS - That disc was probably very COLD....and very CAST IRON = very brittle. EDIT - There's rust on the cracked part of the vent on that disc - it's been cracked for ages!!!! Make sure you replace the other one as well dude...
-
Yeah, it's a very cool - but very little demand product! The "sensible" plan with the SW20 is 300mm rear (SW20 rear calipers on WMS carriers) and 300mm front (WMS 4 pot rightness).....I can find "a few" homes for that setup methinks!
-
That's very nice - esp in black! Have you ever seen any of the V6 ones out of interest? I was messing about with the SW20 rear suspension the other day on a hunch (as the front 300mm WMS kit will be ready pretty soon) and found I was right - from my existing parts I can do a 4 pot 300mm rear kit! Really cool but only for race / drift use as you'll need a hyd handbrake....made me grin though!
-
Yep, no problem! (costs a bit more, drop me a PM if you'd like a shipping quote)
-
Very cool project - I like! Are those Golf BBS's, are they 15" and are you keeping them? I've got a nice little photo of a BMW E30 15" BBS here that might be of use!
-
To be honest if I did an Evo kit it would be more upmarket than the goodspeed stuff, so as price is your main issue and we don't have quick and easy access to a test hub etc I'm going to pass! Best not to spread too thin when expanding, let's get the full range of EP91/82 kits sorted out first.
-
Hi Rick, you're right about the bore, I just need to get a pile of test EP91/82 parts to test on. No specific plans for the Evo, what size wheels are you running? I'm happy to have a look if you've got a standard hub/disc/caliper etc I can borrow to work on?
-
Can (will) do! ;)
-
Custom CNC machined carriers....... ;)
-
Cheers, much appreciated! ;) Annoyingly......they are very different to the other Toyota ones I've seen, and my evil plan won't work. I'm sure I can sort an upgrade for the rear (MOT passing big disc, more powerful handbrake) in the future but it'll be more or less from scratch. ;)
-
So are the SRs EP91/55mm bore, or EP82/54mm bore? If I go 300mm I'll find the ideal disc, don't you worry about that! I try to have two versions of each kit, a solid disc and a rotor/bell of the same basic dimensions, so there are two price options. Have you managed to get a look at those brake line tabs yet dude? ;) So that's 300mm behind 15" Final Speeds, or behind onther type of 15" that's fitted at the moment?
-
Cheers guys - I'll wait with baited breath! ;)
-
Cool! If you could take some shots of the caliper / carrier from several angles that would be great! With luck I might be able to do a rear upgrade.....fingers crossed.
-
Has anyone got photos of the rear EP91 (etc) hubs, calipers and especially carriers? (not interested in drums) Also in this photo of a Starlet disc setup onto Tercel conversion, are the black plates standard Starlet, or has the guy made them?
-
Correct, some 15's but very-very few. Not any that I've ever found, put it that way! Possibly real motorsport ones like the Compomotive and (proper) Team Dynamics ones for instance?
-
Nope, "the Rick" I met didn't go for the brakes in the end (sort of vanished from memory), if he had he could have given my my carrier back! ;) Also if you look the wheels are the same, looks like they got a respray in black...? That's outside my Dad's place, in the carpark....
-
lol, when I get them made you guys will be the first to know!!! 'course I can do 300mm rotors and bells as well as 280mm but I get the impression the 16's that they would really need are too big for most people?
-
To "do what I did" (and I probably went too far) you'll need: - An air die grinder, with burrs and a compressor. - A valve seat grinder with stones at the various angles. - About two evenings per port!!!!! (ouch) - Bigger valves, I back-cut mine as well (not shown) Beyond that, you also need (I didn't have): - A couple of spare heads to trash while testing ideas on... - .....the flowbench. - Some real idea of what you're doing (buy books by A . Graham Bell)! :-) Basic things to know are: - "polishing" the ports is a bad idea, it lets fuel condense on the walls and messes with the "boundar

Cheers! ;)

Really needs to rev to get the most of the 20v, and the 7A block isn't that great. Plus I wanted it to look standard and be cheeeeeap. Plus I always wanted to have a go at gasflowing!
-
This is off-topic really being a non-Starlet engine...but I bet it's pretty close? Basically I blew up my AW11's 4AGE and thought "I'll just clean up a spare head and do a simple 1.8ish coversion using the 7AFE block". As normal I got carried away, I thought "may as well go big valve to help the extra 200cc's worth of charge" etc and it went from there! The old 4AGE head, I think I can see what was wrong! The standard bigport 4AGE inlets: Modifying the inlets: Going big-valve, note the change in the gap between standard valves and new valves! Nice new oversize wasted-stem valves
-
Yup yup - no problem, if they are common on the starlet in the UK I'm bound to run into some I expect....
