the car will pass the mot fine as it don't need one. There is no uk equivalent of the car so it only needs to pass an idle test. I got it from america and it cost £124 delivered.

I am not sure mate, i want to get it rolling roaded. I would say possibly a couple of bhp as i still have the standard exhaust and manifold.

www.toyotagtturbo.com it is another gt turbo forum

Either dave burwash or toby on tggt have them

yes mate, the cat and the other bracket which connects to the exhaust. The weight difference is unbeliavable too the cat is made from cast iron and weighs a ton lol

I would imagine because they are custom fabricated on your car, have never heard one though so i couldn't say if they sound better than the wepr, either choice you will get a top quality exhaust.

My decat finally come today, after i was sick of waiting and gutted my cat yesterday ( typical lol ) had a bit of trouble getting the 3 bolts which hold the bottom bracket of the cat to the exhaust. It is a good job that i bought an air compressor a few months ago with an impact wrench otherwise i would never have got the bolts loose. Even with my standard exhaust and manifold you can feel a big difference, the turbo spools up quicker and there is more midrange torque

Hi mate i have heard good things from the wepr exhausts and sacahs service is amazing, but have a look on tggt in the traders for autofixed, they do a cat back exhaust for about £245 and i think a turbo back one for about £290. And that is fitted to your car as well.

I have the sard r2d2 bov, it is ok comes with a nice blue turbo pipe to replace the standard one but if i had the money at the time i would have gone for the hks one or the ARC one. I still might go for the ARC one later on.

i think the trd ones are only 25mm, have a look on www.fensport.co.uk as they sell them.

was just looking on rhdjapan and found this zep racing oil pan $319 delivered clicky

Plus insurance in Northern Ireland is very very very very very expensive, hence why most young people over there drive 1.0ltr corsas ect

yep made my life a lot easier when i was wiring up my jam fcc, plus you don't have to worry about cutting the loom.

I spy a field one touch coupler, i have one of them good piece of kit some nice parts there mate.

I bought a hks one first whichi wasn't impressed with and after reading a review of the filters i bought the apexi one which is a lot better. Have a loo on www.rhdjapan.com they have the hks, apexi and sard one too, They are also cheaper than you can get them in this country.

Cheers phil, i tinted the front indicators last night so will get pics posted up tomorrow. I ran out of tint so it is not too dark, i think it looks mint.

Is it just me or does this mazda look like a starlet? same as the 121 looks like a fiesta? clicky

looking at the way the seat belt is i would say he out the belt through before he bolted the brace together.

could you not fit longer bolts and bolt the seatbelts to the outside mounting poing of the c pillar bar?

Only a little bit better! nah only kidding yours is stunning ;)

Just looking on ebay and found this glanza which i was going to import a few months ago, but when i had the money it was gone lol. glanza

Best get a union jack sprayed on the intercooler cover lol

I think it is a bit late for a progress thread idrees, should have done one when i first started lol. i will have a look around to see what pics i have from when it was standard. Cheers for the comments. jon

Just finished painting my strut brace, and installed voltage stabilizer kit, got the kit from halfrauds and it didn't come with instructions so just followed the tiny pic on the back of the box as best as i could lol. Not much left that i can paint now lol. Going to do my fluid caps when i get a chance. Let me know what you think. jon

if you do a search mate either on here or tggt you will find everything you need.
