Sparco evos if you want a fixed bucet seat. Great quality and not badly priced.

The dash isnt a hard job. Its abit tight getting at afew bolts behind the dash but nothing difficult. Takes abit of force to break the dash away from the push clips at the top aswell.

I had all my air vents, clock, radio and heater controlls blanked off and 3 gauges cut into the middle. Cost me about £120 from Autoflock in wrexham.

Got your piston rings then haha?

could have a cracked abs ring(or very rusty) The sensor will only pick the crack up at slow speeds.

Car looks good man, so glad the sun was out! Wish ide of gone in my glanza though

I can get insured on my glanza with no mods for £1300. Im nearly 20 with 3 years ncb. but it make alot of difference if youve owned the car for awhile. Ive had mine since 09.

Was going to do some work on the car but it started raining.. Sooo ive been watching series 1 of two and a half men on comedy central extra alllll dayy . Such fun lol

Duno if you aimed that at me but ill answer it haha . Probably done about 200 miles and every stop has being a hard one as there used on my track car. Sometimes they can squeal when burning the bedding in compound off or if your discs have got dirty. Such as oil or grease. Reds are a harder compund than yellow arnt they?

Im using yellowstuffs in my hispecs. I havnt used the shims/ anti squeal pads and they arnt that noisey. Only squeal now and againg but i like it lol. Have you put and copper grease on them?

If you just want them for trackdays get them of ebay. They always come up cheap on there, and pistonheads

Yeh 1. I was actually really suprised. Good track though, plus it was dry!! Ide go again definitely

Where was everyone today? I knew there wasnt many starlets going but i was the only one there haha. Was a great day anyway. Shame some of you missed it. Mark did a great job putting it all togther Thanks

If you havnt messed with any wires ide change you brake light switch. Its connected to the top of your brake pedal under the dash. Should be pretty cheap to replace

Thats completly the opposite to what ive read. If you remember taggy, there was a guy that reccomended you afew books about building engines? Anyway i brought one of the books and ive been reading it, Its quite good and goes into depth about pretty much everything! In said book it gives you advice on running in.. It says you shouldnt let the engine idle on first start up, keep the revs at about 2-2.5k so that the camshafts and lifters are splash lubricated . Take the car on 10 min runs letting the engine become under load but try and avoid going over 3.5k. It also says take the car onto a highway or motorway to get in into top gear. Vary the engine speeds between 2k-3k, holding the engine rpm at a steady 2k, and accelerating the engine upto 3k using up to 3/4 throttle. As soon as 3k is reached let the engine slow back down to 2k. Using this running in method the engine is subject to acceleration load (piston rings under pressure) without excessive rpm being used, do thid over and over. This does serve to bed the rings in quite reasonably quickly without the possibility of overheating the internal engine components. After 10 mins running like this let the engine cool down completely. I brought the 4 cylinder engine short block high performance manual. <----- Good book!

How come you had them all balanced mate? Arnt they balanced when there made?
