  1. Thanks again! The worst case scenario it will land on my garage wall;)
  2. Cheers Calum Any advice is there any way to measure this wheel and start looking at boss kits (what kits you guys using?) - it looks it's a toyota wheel so it cannot be too many standards there (I presume it's a similar thing to a PCD when buying alloys;) @Rob H@RCH Engineering
  3. That's how much the OEM where squashed (before I've changed to TRD arb):
  4. Here it is my thicker TRD one - tight but never knocked Should have it painted before fitting!! I have the spacer plates made up and fitted at the same time when fitting anti-lift kit. No knocking luckily! and the TRD bar still not painted...:(( laziness! at least it's undersealed now
  5. Brand new PAIR of Bilstein B6 Sport Performance Shock Absorbers Two Shock Absorbers For Front Axle To Fit TOYOTA STARLET/GLANZA (EP91) 1.3 From Years: 04/96 > 03/99 Bilstein Part Number: 34-050484 For Bolted Struts Only (they're inserts to your OEM/KYB shocks) Bought from EuroPerformance for £110 each Taken out of packaging for a photo - Never fitted Now for sale for £165 for a pair (have them up on ebay too for £179 – hope that’s allowed and ok) Please add £20 for P&P (will be shipped from Ireland
  6. I am not fully getting you mate I'm afraid... You said it should fit directly, then that I need a boss kit and then that I need an adaptor plate... Isn't it direct fit OR boss kit, no?
  7. Much appreciated, thanks for all the help. I'm based in Ireland so I need to try to find someone locally to look at it...
  8. I haven't realised Toyo not being available in 185-55-14 - my bad! Rainsports in this size not in stock on Camskill either... I've used demon tweeks recently as better rates than camskill!! Falken ZE914 High Performance Road Tyre are even cheaper than CF2 and I can confirm they're very decent tyres - excellent grip and long-lasting (have them on my Accord) Here's their selection: https://www.demon-tweeks.com/uk/performance/tyres-accessories/tyres/shop-by/diameter/14_inch/tyre_profile/55/width/185/sortby/price_uk/
  9. Yyyy..English please?;)) You mean custom adaptor? To go from what size/pattern to what? If it was for old Toyota I'd presume there are ready to fit adaptors on the market, no? Sounds like a really challenging exercise;(
  10. Lads and Lassies Look what a gem I've found on ads last Fri! I bought it straight away (€45=£39) lol. It's a real leather and old school. Even if it lands on my garage wall I'll be happy (after cleaning and painting its spokes of course - silver/chrome/clear???). Look at the condition of the stitching - it's actually perfect! 4 This Lad told me that his uncle had it in his KP60... might be true? Looks like a very high genuine Toyota quality and even the plastics and mid button are 100%. The ad was saying that the horn was working OK when las
  11. The Toyo Proxes T1-R not only look cool but they almost suck onto wet tarmac! Excellent tyre lasting for years. And it's made in Japan. I like Falkens (robust) on other (family) car but it always has to be a Toyo for my Starlet!
  12. They both were always called 'covers' by them TRD people;) That one (PN 77315-SP010) which is still for sale is a cap 'with tether' and different shape to what Pikey has. According to TRD part numbers chart it doesn't fit Starlets otherwise I'd have it long time ago:)
  13. The colour of that SR is same as yours (toyota 205 black) - he's based in NI (PM me if you need contact details etc). My Irish N/A EP91 won't be an SR replica and definitely not a glanza rep neither. So no glanza bumpers nor interior (I love the light blueish grey trim and I won't remove the door strips)! I'd call it ''European style modded with loads of TTE/TRD/JDM goodies;)''. I have to build a thread on ukso one day as the list of my mods is quote long! For now you can see the list in my profile: http://www.ukstarletowners.com/profile/6539-di_bodi/?tab=field_core_pfield_13
  14. That's a great and rare mod mate! Makes me so jealous! I've never came across this part... I have the TTE spoiler and the speaker shelf and actually found a genuine 103K mls SR being sold for parts recently so got few bits: second spoiler, second shelf (I'll be selling these soon) and finally unabused TTE back box (! Yessss;) but never the TTE lip or even a replica!! I'm afraid they're all gone discontinued... Again: that's really sweet! Forgive me going off topic but what other lips (except that one from a Laguna as that's too common) would you recommend or find suitable for my N/A
  15. May I also ask what car is that front lip from? Looks sweet, quite big/low though - any problems with kerbs when parking?
  16. Where the hell did you get that TRD fuel cap may I ask? Part Number MS360-00002 is discontinued since good few years... So much want !
  17. How much are these TTE wings these days I wonder?
  18. I need to go lower at front so don't want them SR special that's the problem... After fitting tein springs (for EP91 not EP82!) it was a big disappointment in relation to the look of the car. The rear is low alright but the front is a joke. How the hell they describe them teins as 57mm lowering?!? Other than that they're great springs, lovely soft comfortable handling and car not bouncy (except over bumps!) but the height being 20mm lower than oem?!? That's why I've decided to change the shocks as the last resort and am left now with these useless bilsteins wrrrrrrrr
  19. I wouldn't mind paying for Koni! Bought them for rear but fronts are gone even from dutch warehouse. I was thinking KYB SR special but there is no info that they would do lowering springs, only that they're stiffer. Tockico (hitatchi) are discontinued too I think so is there really anything else even in Japan?
  20. That's a surprise as Koni are discontinued and the B6s are on the market for a while... someone surely fitted them! What other options do I have for sport shocks since konis are gone?!? My front (on teins springs) looks ridiculously high on oem shocks (plus it bounces up on bumps) and I reckon sporty shocks is a must cure.
  21. Hi all - I am trying to fit the Bilstein B6 Sport Shocks (P/N 34-050484) at the front of my EP91 (UK spec). I know about cutting the top of oem struts and bolting at the bottom but the threaded ring on top of the insert which supposed to lock into cut oem tube is TOO BIG (SEE THE PHOTO). Does anyone know how to fit this bloody thing?!? The car is on the lift at the garage and even my mechanic is badly stuck with this... THANKS IN ADVANCE!!!
  22. Different opinions coming now... Hmmmm... I was thinking about the bin but eventually paid them just to stop further letters bothering you Di_Bodi
  23. Sounds dodgy at first sight but if tried and used by ye guys I will have a closer look! Good Man, Thanks!!! Di_Bodi
