TrisK

Just seen the update and Ordered a pair

I take it you'll be producing some anniversary stickers too soon?

Anniversary stickers have been and gone. They sold out in less than 7 hours

Only 4 sets left. Best get yours quick if you thinking about it

Not if you kill the main battery earth, with no earth to the battery, the circuit cant be completed.

19 of 70 left!

Only 18 left now. Suspect we will sell out tonight!

Dont you need to connect it to the alternator too. Or itll just run on the alternator

So as of today, the 27th September 2017 we have been running as a club for 5 years! Although the staff have been very busy with their personal lives, with houses moves, job changes and new little feet we have tried to put all the effort possible in this year to give you guys the best experience.

Thank You to ALL of you guys. Members, Club Members, The Moderation Team, Traders & Fellow Staff. It definately wouldn't be possible without you, so thank you for all your help over this year, and the last 5.

We Are STILL A Non Profit Organisation

This is a very important part of the club and it needs to be kept this way to ensure the club runs consistent and smoothly. We don't mask anything, we are truthful and clear. We are doing this for the Toyota Starlet Scene here in the UK and because we enjoy doing so. There are a few points I would like to point out though:

• UKSO will never demand for donations from its members
• UKSO will never demand full membership to use the website from its members
• UKSO will not automatically take membership payments upon time of renewal
• UKSO has its own financial accounts, nobody is taking proceeds, any funds generated are put back into UKSO & the Starlet Community

The Quality of your Community

All the major staff members have full time jobs and help run and maintain ukso as a hobby for people to share interests.
This year will show a major upgrade to the forum software that will bring a new look, and lots of new features.

Club Membership

Club Membership is set at the minimal charge of £1.95. This is such a minimal amount that is purely another way for members to show support to there club. We have had over 1000 people join up to support UKSO over the five years.

Official Traders

We have invited many new traders that specialise in certain areas of the Starlet scene to offer our members many additional services. On top of offering services, they offer discounts for club members, support and advice on the forum to members and much more. They play a huge part in the Starlet Community and we will continue to bring in new traders who offer unique services that aren't already catered for! We have brought on many new traders this year and we thank you for making them all feel welcome!

Major Shows & Events

This is something we have absolutely perfected now we feel, we've had such a strong presence at all the major Japanese Car Shows. Although not as large as previous years, the sense of community is great, and any show definitely feels like a weekend with friends!

Bump

Photobucket photos will be fixed shortly

The female ECU plug took me weeks to find as what seems like the worldwide stockist didn't have any and are on back order , and the few people over here who had them didn't want to give them up so I ended up getting this one from a chap in Malaysia of all places who had one left !

Yep. I ended up chopping an ecu up to get mine

Hi Nick

Any other people interested?

I have no idea Colin. Not sure if it's something they'd even be willing to make. Just seeing if they would be keen as I'm sure there's a market for it

These are people that have expressed interest to me already

1) TrisK

2) Amjad

3) Socks

4) bluebear

Guys for years I've been pining after a cruise style bonnet for an ep82

cheers nick

So all the rear brake stuff went back on

and the car back down on the floor

havent driven on it yet, more than moving it round the workshop, but it feels solid and seems to work

Ok time for an update, its a big one

So this arrived and went on:

So that went one, boy does it feel good

The methanol injection kit arrived, this hasnt gone on yet, but it will be soon, but i need to plan a route through the interior, which youll see why shortly.

The new wheels arived and were test fitted

The rear axle came off the car

and we made a ghetto spray booth for Kieran to paint my rear bea,

The rear beam was attached with the new ultra RARB

The final rear axle plates turned up and the final bolt together happened

it all went back together with a brand new brake set up with lines, discs and pads

The wheels can then go back on, with tyres and with the new shimmed fitement

It was then time to start work on some special stuff for the interior, so the drill came out:

and the cage started going in, this was originally a cusco 4 point, but an extra diagonal has been added with tube from customcages and joints order from cusco in japan (the joints are eye waterinly expensive, but i wanted to keep it all authentic)

the harness bar was added, and it in the process of having the upright modified to work with the cage

The front is currently under progress with a set of Cruise style wings being bolted on

but theres where we are today, as always massive thanks to Kieran and Flint. This car wouldnt be anywhere without you guys

Also thanks to my mate Jordan who is helping with the front wings as he is a panel beater by trade. Definately who you know!

Next plans are to get my new clutch in, and get the methanol hooked up. Then its some mapping and sending everything off for paint

Yep. Glanza are slightly wider

I'd get an adapter made rather than cutting up a sard kit. Just in case you come across a wastegate down the road

It's something I need to get round to scanning in

So much useful knowledge in there
