  1. cool im lookin to leave Swansea around 2ish today, hopefully meet some people stayin over the night before, where is everyone meeting whos going the night before, corby services, beefeater?? I could murder a beer
  2. Some of you may have seen my start at strippin out my starlet, can anyone point me in the right direction for a lightweight fuel tank to replace the stock one. It obviously needs to be big enough to allow the pump to go onto the thank too. Hope you can help, oh and another thing i dont want a ridiculously expensive tank and it needs to be light as fook so aluminum is probably best! Craig
  3. You just need look for one which has about 100 cold cranking amps, there are quite a few to choose from with different weights. Hold on until mine arrives and I will let you know which one is best to get, im looking the lightest one i can get. Craig
  4. Updated with more pictures on getting my sound deadening up, what a complete cahooooonnnt!!!
  5. Gonna buy a new set of rims and tyres also soon, those 16's gotta go! As its gonna be a track car im thinking somthing thats bright and memorable so people can put the car to a face, as although its nice at the moment its difficult to distiniguish whos ep is whos when watching on track. Gonna go for some mad bright colour with some nice R888 rubber, yummy!! What bright colours do you think will look cool and memorable ha ha, maybe bright luminous orange lol ha ha
  6. Same here, basically i was always stressin about the resale value of it if i stripped it, its taken a year to finally decide to do it! Primarily because while racing on track I want to be even quicker than it is already, lol was laughing the other day at Pembrey when a guy was in an EVO FQ300 and he couldnt keep up, ha ha! So with the guts out its gonna be even more mental Roll on Japfest 2 this Sunday!
  7. Cheers guys, im just gonna pull out as much as i can to get it as light as possible without having to spend any major money. Stripped the doors also, think ill get in there and give it a good clean first!
  8. My mission - to make this the lightest fastest thing on track ever!!! Just to get you started my current setup is below....

  9. what size tyres do people run on 15's also?
  10. yeah i have Rota Track R's on mine already, but there in 16's but there no good for track days really on my starlet as they limit the tyre choices due to the low profile tyre.
  11. I am in the market for changing my 16's to 15's, want some lightweight track ones. Can anyone recommned a set which are light but not ridiculously expensive? Mine are currently 7.4kg a rim
  12. What weights are your cars guys, perspex windows i have been seriously considering, did you get them made or did you buy them ready made, where can i get them from? Next dry day im gonna gut it out, got a lightweight racing battery on order I can see myself getting really anal about making it as light as possible lol Want to replace my wheels too, currently there 16's so think i can save a few kg by putting 15's on, plus i think it will handle better I have got a cobra seat in the drivers at the moment, got another one for the passenger but im having a nightmare getting a rail for it, no
  13. Been doing track days for nearly a year in the trusty ep82 starlet now and she is loving it! Running at about 185bhp 0.98bar with coilovers and its sweet. I dont think i need any more power for the time being as utilising what i have got seems to be the cheapest option, next is lsd but what i want to know is what weight can i get my lovely starlet down too. Had it corner weighted a while back and with a tank of fuel its coming in at 880kg, still got everything inside, the only thing i have stripped out is the Aircon unit (which was bloody heavy!) What weight can i get her down too, i really
  14. Jesus that was a worrying read then!! Can someone clean the thread up then if there are no problems with the event, if you didnt know about any of the trouble the last page of this thread could be very confusing!
  15. Yeah i wasnt sure if there was a thread for it any where else, so posted just in case. Just spoke to the woman organising it and it sounds like it will be a good day, its on my door step so would be rude not to go
  16. Wales - Carmarthenshire Modified Car Show 8th August http://www.gtectuning.co.uk/phpBB2/index.php Pembrey Race track, the cirucit is open to take your car on for half day from 9:00am to 12:00pm, its free entry into the event and its only £80 for half a day of open pit track action!! The rest of the day is full of other events on track and stands at the circuit. Pembrey is a great track and this is a bargain!! Me and my friend are going down from Swansea so it would be good to see some other Welsh starlets on track
