I love this car! Makes me miss mine as it was red as well Keep up the good work James

Thanks for the pics man! That fire sounds and looks savage! surprised you didnt have a mental break down after seeing that curtainly done it justice since the fire and spent a far few ££££ on it James

Looking good man! Loving the GT4, you got any more pics to share? James

Good work mate some good pics there, if POTM returns you have some decent entry's! James

Tell me about it, was stressing about it today lol mistakes happen when you run out of day light and rush to finish! James

All sorted ! Caliper was mis- aligned on the carrier so took Caliper off fans after few moments of pissing around getting it aligned correctly bolted it back together and went for a drive and was perfect James

cracking update mate, fingers crossed for the dyno!!! i can image taking that mani off for heat wrapping would be a nightmare lol James

welcome mate James

Looking good matey! James

How has this not sold! James

Not brembo 4pots they are standard 2pots they worked perfectly before so fingers crossed it something simple! Will report back tomorrow evening! Pistons went back far enough for me to get caliper back on but maybe it needed some more! James

Fitted new discs and pads to my Impreza this evening and once fitted took the car for a test drive around the block however when returning the drivers side disc was red hot and smelling of burning! Passenger side is fine Am I right in thinking I've over tighened the caliper and the pads haven't got room to move about ?( movement on slider if I'm correct ) or Is it something else ? Will be loosening up bolts slightly tomorrow night after work Any other ideas and advice is appreciated James

40mm PI springs on 195/50/15

I really like this good work! James

You live in an excellent postcode area though James

Tuning tips hmmm how deep are your pockets nothing is overly cheap Magnecor Ignition leads and iridium plugs are good place to start APEX lowering springs from CTC performance are £110 if I remember correctly, coil overs for ignis like never come up second hand I found and lirchased first set that come up in 12months when o had mine cost £370 second hand Ksports Other than that there's not a lot else you can get a few braces for under the car but cost top dollar ( or did ) if your good at bid Jdm there's loads of stuff on there lol James

How many ncb you got ? And how long you had your lisence? I went from NA paying £70month to ignis sport and payed £150montg for 3months then renewed and payed £93month At the time I had 2yrs lisence 1ncb then 2 Ncb after 3months James

If your not to attached to yours is sell and buy a fully built one ie johns as it's an epic example! If you want to keep yours drop Race-Tec and Tuning developments a message with your requirements and ask them to price for new alround so you have an exact idea of price and then source some parts second hand to get cost down! James

Dude you have taken the plunge and got the wilwoods get them fitted I'm sure you won't regret it James

Why not aim for 250-300bhp and have a perfectly set up starlet that can deliver the power rather than to much power and spin through lovely new tires and be disappointed when a Saxo passes you because your spinning far to much! Having read through this thread that's what I'd do with 7-8k James

double post

Basically put 8-10k aside and you should have enough to cover problems and breakages along way Just like to add that 8-10k isn't for brand new everything! James

Purchased OEM pads and discs all round from IDworkz this afternoon at a decent price of £150 delivered James

Haha great minds think alike hahaha James

PleeeeeeAse!
