  1. I can get bumpers sent for £20.
  2. I'm not made of money ;) Besides the Grids won't be going on track!
  3. Paradas aren't available in this size either afaik ;) it was either these or Uniroyal Rainsports. If they look shit they're coming straight off, that's for sure. Won't be settling for 'second best'
  4. They are good, originally from eBay seller iirc. The same company sells them for loads of other cars too, they don't make any noise like the Walbros as mentioned above. Personally I love that whining sound haha, but I'm guessing everyone else finds it annoying. Nothing to worry about Luke, get one bought!
  5. Indeed. Just don't want them to look too stretched
  6. I just held the tyre next to the wheel, and I'm scared that there might be too much of the wheel lip showing as the T1Rs look quite slim even though they are 195s. Fingers crossed that they won't look over the top!
  7. New tyres have arrived super quick, top service from Camskill as always. Hopefully I can have these fitted tomorrow, as long as I can find a tyre shop who is willing to fit them!
  8. It's up to you to decide, Ryan says he met him but I'm still not convinced Edit - Any pictures of your other Starlets? ;)
  9. You (Dancer on TGTT) gave the address of 2 Megdale Place, Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire to my mate who was interested in the wheels. That's Dominos address And the boy who told me wouldn't lie for no reason ;)
  10. The rear bumper is a custom job based on the stock UK bumper.
  11. I was just going to say, someone please email and ask how much BHP they add
  12. Between the crank and block, from memory there's just 2
  13. Before ordering bearings get the crank inspected by an engineering firm. Even if you're using the FE one that is fine, get it polished from an engineers and ask them to check it out. 99.9% chance it will be fine as it came out of your perfect running 4EFE but it's always better to be safe imo. Once the condition of the crank is confirmed then order the Standard size bearings. If you're going to reuse the 4EFTE crank, get it reground then order the shells you need, ie. they may grind down to .25 so you need .25 oversize bearings. Your bearings including thrust washers should cost around £100, I paid £102 from Dave (TM-Developments iirc). I'd recommend new piston rings while it's open, and a new engine gasket set. Rings are £90 and the gasket set £125 (Camskill). As for the rods, why do you need new ones? I'd say stick with the others unless they are buggered? My best advice: DO NOT RUSH THIS! Don't aim to have it done by the end of the weekend, it's not going to happen so you'll be pissed off. If it does happen, it'll be rushed and you don't things like this. Strip the whole engine and clean everything up nicely over the weekend. Piston rings, rods, valves, cams, the whole lot. Use parafin and a several toothbrushes (10 for £1 @ Poundland) and get everything looking nice before it goes back together. Replace the valve stem seals too as they are included in the engine gasket set.
  14. I thought the same before I ordered it, if you had to buy all the bits individually it would cost a fortune! Don't forget the thrust washers.
  15. That's a water pump, not an oil pump Engine looks sweet but the matt black inlet lets it down imo, would have looked better Oem silver
  16. That's a shame, it looks quite tidy.
  17. Yeah that's a good price. I think I paid £138 from Tm-Dev.
  18. The wheels in that link are the exact wheels he offered to someone I know. I told my mate to ask for his address and funnily enough he gave Dominodons address. He is known on this forum too so I'm sure he will confirm once he sees this (if he wants to).
  19. It comes with everything you need. Head gasket, manifolds, turbo, stem seals, cam cover seal, spark plug seals, oil pump seal and loads of other bits. It's well worth it as the stem seals are around £5 each from Toyota and you get all 16 seals with the kit. And you can also sell the parts you don't need such as the HG and CT9 gaskets so you get around £30 returned from those bits.
  20. You can screw it where it's supposed to be clipped, or use strong double sided tape to hold it up.
  21. It's an Auto Daz, so no clutch!
  22. Looks and sounds absolutely awesome!!
  23. Yeah Phil I'm not too bothered about it now the wheels are back but he doesn't deserve to be on here! I'm heading home tonight Ryan so I'll find out soon!
  24. Cheers Phil you're a star!
  25. I'll put money on it Liam. Let's see him get pictures of this car first, on TGTT he had a similar username and then offered some alloys to a mate. I told my mate to ask for a collection address and it was Dominos address. Ps. Looks like he just posted in his own thread, would that surprise you?
