I have genuine apexi 'power intake' dual cone filter (was for ep82 but fitted in my ep91 no problem after bending some brackets) and I can honestly recommend it as it gives amazing, deep sound (n/a engine) and the power gain is significantly noticeable!

Would You have any more information about them springs as I can't find any spec for them in the web... Part Number? How much they lower? Picture of them fitted? Thanks in advance

quote: strut brace fitted question: Can you tell me please what did you do back in the day with the fuel filter (as the brace hits the top of it when I try to fit my one) - bent the bracket or just rotated the filter and left it hanging on just one bolt? Thanks !

FrozenJakalope: This is brilliant. Someone finally gave me answers to all these questions!!! Thank you so much for your time and effort. It is priceless help for someone who only starts modifing! Thanks again FrozenJakalope! I'll change this intake in August and report back how it works!

How much you're lowered may I ask? (again: I love the photo and the Toyo Tyres! I have the same T1Rs but 195/45/15)

It looks you've rolled the arches - am I right?

Thanks Morgey! I am aware of panhard rod issue and it is on the list... but no funds for it yet..;( Lowering won't be on coilovers only springs so she will go down only 30mm probably... I've read here that anything up to 40mm should be fine without adjusting... (?) A'propos springs - that's my problem at the moment: http://www.ukstarletowners.com/topic/94928-problem-with-fk-automotive-lowering-springs-for-ep91/#entry1122784

akyakapotter THANKS FOR YOUR PHOTO!! Your set up is similar so i that way that you brough both tracks to the same width as rear spacers are fatter 5mm then front ones... So have you noticed anything in relation to driveability? Maybe I should check with some tracking specialist? Your alloys must have different ET as I don't have that much space! By the way: the stock suspension is so ridiculously high! Looks so bad... Front: Rear: How much they'll go inside at the top I wonder after lowering on springs...hmm...

Sound. And it is 88bhp? any more thoughts? Cheers!

I know this matter was commented good few times already - I've spent some time trying to catch all the info from different threads… … but I am still not 100% sure about few related things (I am kind of newbie and not a mechanic either…) and with your help lads I just would like to summarise it as I just purchased the tubular inlet from 1998 E11 Corolla 1.3 4EFE (for €10!!!) and I want to fit it into my 1998 EP91 Irish Starlet. I think it would be great for all of us ordinary N/A people to have this info in one thread! So: The 2nd Gen 4EFE Mani is the rectangular shape which is currently in

Hello Lads, I just want to know what are your thoughts of having different size wheel spacers between axles. I mean the track width at the back is always narrower then at the front in ANY car so I suppose it must be scientifically justifed. But if I put 15mm spacers in front and 20mm on the back (this is what my measurements tell me to make my ET 35 wheels look flush with body) it will make both track widths identical as Toyota Starlet EP91 has 1400mm track at front and 1395mm at the back... Would it affect its driveability / steering? Other thing is that the car is not lowered yet - shoul

Hello Lads I just need to ask has anyone had any experience with FK Automotove Lowering Springs for Toyota Starlet P9 part number FKTY050. I bought them from amazon (really cheap) and there's no way you could fit them! I measured them against the OEM springs (see attached photos - FRONT SPRING) and they are 170mm in diameter... The OEM springs are 140mm diameter! WTF? OEM spring (front): FK spring: OEM vs FK: code FKS233VA visible: The FK springs have codes FKS233VA (front) and FKS233HA (rear) printed on them (the box has the correct part number FKTY050!) The manufacturer is not ab

All right so they're not so important? It is some kind of protection from road grime to discs/calipers etc but if this is not worth the hassle I'll scrap them as well! Thanks!!! Any other opinions?

Quick question for ye guys as I cannot find any thread for this I just have noticed recently that my EP91's front brake disc/caliper DUST COVERS are partially corroded. (It was actually a small surprise for me as the rest of the car is completely rust free as it's kept in my garage... well that cover is made from really thin sheet of metal but still...;-() They're also known as splash guards? (Toyota Part Number 47781-10060 & 47782-10060) My question is: IS THERE ANY REPLACEMENT available out there on the market? I was told that this part is ''dealer only'' (€25+VAT each...) but ma

That's what I'm gonna to do! It's loads if of it thou'! Thanks Lads!

Sorry Russy78, what do u mean 'normal'? As it's factory fitted or it's normal that users stuff the boxes like that?

Thanks Lads! I don't think it's good either as while I was removing it (not fully done yet!) I had piles of coal-like powder coming out of it! Of course that was my thinkin as well (about the noise and cops) but I couldn't pull it, it's so stuck... I even tried to wrap it over a bent steel bar attached to my drill hammer but no success yet... I wonder how big is the difference in noise level... My one is not fitted yet... Any HKS Super Drager owner's response please?

Hello Excuse me lads for my ignorance in this matter but I do not have much experience with aftermarket exhausts and I need yer expertise: Do the mufflers ever come with a factory fitted wire /wire-mesh stuck into the box?!? I know that someone could put it there to quieten it but I was trying to remove it and it's very well attached there inside (close to the back wall/pipe and it's loads of it!) with some metal straps... So the question is: maybe that should actually be there? The specific back box I have recently purchased is an HKS Super Drager from Glanza as seen below: looks decent

I'll do that so! Thanks!!! :thumbsup:

Thanks a million everyone for such a warm welcome! I do want to keep her clean and tidy, the interior is also almost as new! But to be honest I couldn't resist and I had to go for some basic stuff already (but as starletmadyo adviced it's all easily changable): - alloys + TOYO Proxes T1R Tires - clear indicators & repeaters - Kayaba shocks - A'PEXi intake kit: The plan is: - to lower and stiffen her a little bit (ARB, strut brace, springs, spacers, lateral rod?) (I actually have purchased a TRD ARB yesterday:))) need polybushings thou'... - back box (HKS Super Drager already

Hello everyone! Let me introduce myself. I live in Ireland (Galway) and I am a very proud owner of Toyota Starlet! I owned '91 EP81 before and there was few other Toyotas as well: - '93 Jap Imp Corolla SE Ltd - Then it was '99 JDM Estima Lucida Eluceo (AWD) - Also a Landcruiser - Then, a Mazda 6 (sorry;) but ALSO a '98 EP91 Starlet which I bought initially for my wife (nice excuse isn't it? It is just a standard Irish Starlet... but how adorable! I'm a 2nd owner after some matronly lady from Galway hence 40k mileage only when bought 5 years ago with FSH and all the stamps etc (63k now...).
