  1. That's rich, given your track record lol. Will update with photos when there is an update, should be tomorrow. Never lost the love, just a lot of swearing lol. MS3 ordered Well the project will still be alive, not sure about the car itself haha. I'll never break her now.
  2. Should hopefully be getting the wheels in motion this weekend the way things are panning out. Should have most of the engine bay stripped, all being well.
  3. Cheers Dan, don't think I'm going go down the coilover route. I've heard it absolutely ruins the comfort. A nice set of Jap wheel will be purchased though. Thanks mate! Cheers dude, I keep forgetting how big it is and try to squeeze through gaps the EP would go though lol.
  4. It is indeed buddy, a big comfy bus. It's like driving an arm chair lol. Cheers dude!
  5. Yeah, the have golf accessories in there too matey. I am looking forward to building her up again, I haven't really been up to much over these last weekends, so I need to be more productive. Can't see this one going turbo Phil, as much as I would want too, I can't stretch the funds far enough for a forged build. Cheers dude!
  6. Glad to see your still working away on this Phil. Nightmare about the shock, but I may know of a set of Tein's & KYB's for sale.
  7. Here's a guide http://www.ukstarletowners.com/page/articles.html/_/club-site/sharing-photos-on-the-website-r27
  8. Due to recently acquiring a new daily drive, the EP has unfortunately taken a back seat. I recently joined the LOC (Lexus owners Club), but it is definitely not the scene for me (£50 pens in the club store). With not having to rely on the EP to get me to work and back, I can work on her at a leisurely pace. All being well, my full engine rebuild kit will be ordered up Monday week. All genuine pump, rings, seals, bearings & every nut & bolt in the engine bay WILL be replaced. Surprisingly this is only going to cost me around £200 which is definitely worth doing. On top of that,
  9. Nice updates mate and good to see more BHP on the dyno, always a plus!
  10. Machining aluminum, I guess using a CNC Lathe?
  11. Carried out a service on this yesterday. Done the following. 1. 6 liters of castrol magnatech 3w30 2. OEM Oil Filter 3. OEM Fuel Filter 4. OEM Pollen Filter 5. OEM Air Filter 6. Mazda Long Life Coolant (free through work) 7. OEM Front Discs & Pads 8. OEM Rear Discs & Pads 9. Brake Fluid Change Also got the centers of the discs powdercoated to prevent surface rust. When I put the car on the ramp the O/S/R shock started leaking badly, so that needs done. Only thing that worries me is the price, close to £700 for two rear shocks. Meister's may be on the cards...
  12. Myself and greenmachine will be making the journey over this year, either my wagon (if it's ready) or his.
  13. That's just destroyed your credit score mate, everytime you get a quote it does a credit search.
  14. Follow the forgot user name links, your user name will be random numbers and letters by the way.
  15. I was supposed to be organising the stand this year for TGTT/UKSO, but I've been side tracked with a new job and to be honest it has just slipped through the net. I wont be showing the car as it is current sorned (again).
  16. Back to the drawing board. The wheels i was after are discontinued.
  17. Welcome to UKSO, great to see more local members coming aboard!
  18. Tired there mate, they don't have the ones I'm after. PM coming your way!
  19. Looking to buy a set of buddy club P1 plus in 17's or 18's, but can only find them in 19's. Any suggestions?
  20. http://www.ukstarletowners.com/topic/60647-all-the-part-numbers-you-could-ever-need/ I've been using this one for the best part of a year
