i might solder your loom for you, if you're lucky

oooh awesome! let us know when you're ready to sell them lew, i'm sure sam will be interested

it's alright, you can just have my old bonnet and stuff! cheeky need a pic of it next to mine, because it makes mine look mint! haha it will get there, once it gets in lock up can really crack on with it. just need a front bumper, headlights and a wing, engine and box in, handbrake cables, and a few other bits and it will be semi road worthy... lol.

mine is still hitting fuel cut and still waiting on an exhaust manifold but hopefully i'll get the exhaust manifold on by then and he would be able to advise me on setting up the afr, so i'll bang mine on depending on if the manifold is still blowing or not, what's the worst that could happen?

mine was exactly the same when i got it, nothing at all on low settings apart from the high setting. there is a resistor block in the heater, and one of the connections snaps sometimes and causes the problem. basically if you take your glove box out there is a small plastic panel with two screws holding it in, right in front of you. take it out ad have a look, will be a block of ceramic over the components but you will see the connections and see where it has snapped off. just solder it back up, thats what i did anyways. im not sure if these pics will work; the bottom pic is the best to see where it has snapped, the shiny bit just above the thumb is where the long strip should be stuck onto. that pic is before it was soldered. i took mine into uni to solder it, just your bog standard cheap as chips iron and solder, nothing special, i'm not trusted with the special things, girls and power/expensive tools and all that haha. just hold the strip down to where it should be stuck onto, heat the area with the soldering iron and then solder it basically haha. be careful to hold it in place for about a min after youve applied the solder though because it may flick off and it hurts like a bitch haha. i would'nt advise wrapping it in anything bud as the ceramic and metallic strips get bloody hot! youre likely to set fire to your car if you wrap it. Also, don't remove it while the car is still warm, again it gets bloody hot lol. sorry if you're the same guy but this was my reply to a very similar problem a few weeks ago as for the warmth of the heaters, heater matrix or thermostat?

it will be a starlet again one day... just not anytime soon

yaaay, project shedlet officially commences on saturday! can't wait!

yeah i suppose while the gearbox and clutch are off yo might as well do the fly if you're planning to do it anyway. i wanted to do the crank seal while the clutch is off but i can't find one for sale that isn't daft money.

what's up with your flywheel?

i always seem to be buying bits! haha or scrounging them . needs a clutch sooner rather than later, so theres another chunk of my student loan gone but oh well, smoke 'em if you got 'em

i really can't believe the money people pay for a scabby used rocker cover! i might drop out of uni and start selling rocker covers haha i go to u pull it near york, fair few starlets but alot have had the engines removed.

haha sorry but it is there, the only reason it's there and not where the fte one is on the bottom left is because of clearance issues with the standard intercooler. i'm running this one while i spray up my fte one then might even swap depending on how the fte one comes out. can pick up 4e rocker covers from scrapyard for about £8 inc VAT, loads of spares! haha

the pcv is the one that has a black pipe going to the inlet, the other breather is right next to the clip block thingy for the standard ht leads, very top right, you can only just see abit of it but it is there (i've moved the leads now so theyre not blocking it haha)

look on the photo of it without the intercooler on, it has 2 breathers, you can just see the top of the breather at the top right under the ht leads

i sell my hair to dirty old men on ebay nah i didn't actually mean to shave it that short... long story... haha. picking up a front and rear lip tomorrow i think, will need to find somewhere cheapish to spray them up and they'll be on, can't wait!

cheers bud i would love a front and rear lip, just decided what to go for really. next time i take a trip to scrapyard i might grab a splitter off something for the front. would love it to be on coilovers and drop it abit more but i can't really, drive down mud tracks with lots of pot holes and it would absolutely kill it

managed to get a few goodies since the forum has been down! since the last update; - car has been lowered! - got some tints - got some ultra power ht leads - sprayed up a rocker cover and swapped for the ugly one - got an oem 3 point rear strut - got some ngk iridiums in it mega happy with everything, and i think the car is happy about it too the old king lead used to jump sparks onto your hand/arm when the engine was running, which wasn't good! After everything listed above, the car drives soooo much better still waiting on another exhaust manifold and hks actuator, but all in good time some pics! I sprayed and painted the rocker cover myself, the red bits are really sparkly in real life lol. It's a 4efe rocker cover off a scrapyard ep91, but there are no clearance issues with the breather as the arc intercooler sits higher than the oem one. I have an FSE fpr and all the bits with it to go on asap. want to get my hands on a wideband lambda to set it up properly and use the fcd (for now) once i know the fueling is right and the actuator is set to somewhere between 0.8-1 bar (not decided yet) I have officially decided on TD04 after debating it for ages. I will do a compression test on her possibly this weekend coming and if i'm happy with the results i'll start looking out for TD04 conversion bits such as civic rad, fmic, ecu, turbo, manifold etc etc. (I don't want to spend alot of money going TD04 for the piston rings to give up a month later) Sam has now jumped on the starlet wagon! he's bought a bare rolling shell and will be building it up and will hopefully be running in time for rising sun/jae etc

cheers guys. i don't have to say how frustrating it is seeing my pride and joy be the victim of little bastards with nothing better to do. just hope they don't do any major damage. thanks dan not enough of advance's and limited's left now

Got round to taking some pics of the parcel shelf/speaker set up aka the stealth shelf it cost and £10 in total to make and seemed like a good idea as my car is obviously attracting the attention of the scum that kicks about round here. Also the guy who had it before me made a complete mess of cutting hole in it for his shoddy 6x9's and he ended up cutting them too big so any speakers i put in there just fell into the boot, mega annoying and was wrecking the terminals on my speakers. Basically, cut some mdf to fit in either side of the parcel shelf. Screwed the wood onto the top of the shelf and Cut holes in the wood, and mounted the speakers on the underside of the wood. So there was already massive holes in the shelf, and we cut holes in the wood that were just big enough. Used spray adhesive on the wooden panels and wrapped black fabric (from the range, about £3 a meter) round the wood. Here's some pics as i really aren't great at explaining it view from underneath... view from on above, and the view the scumbags will get as they walk past.... And thought i'd throw in a pic of the new headunit and din tray, and the boost gauge that still needs fixing onto the dash. The boost gauge came off a guy who breaks nissan's, mostly sr20's, we went for bits for Sam's almera gti turbo build and found it, couldn't resist haha.... Plans for the near future are clutch and new exhaust manifold, money is abit tight so i'm going to wait and see what comes up at a reasonable price, don't want to spend loads on the ct9 setup as it will be going td04 or similar asap

yup magnecores, any mounts that aren't as fucked as mine would be good, fuel rail adaptors can be queer little buggers, i want one that sits into the rail not just bolts on the end of it but even so they're only about £15 off ebay. clutch wise i can't really afford to spend loads, everything on this car was either dirt cheap or from scrapyard lol. how much do the ACT one's sell at? found a exedy organic one for £120. i'd love a tubular one, but i don't really want to spend alot on the ct9 setup if i'm going TD04 in 6 months time :/ hmmmm. and yup i love the oem one's they look awesome imo, just need to get saving some pennies! need to get a few over to Hull next year for a little meet! there's a few ep82's popped up over the last few months in hull and a few new glanzas! starlet city!

yeah me too i've got a decent alarm, just not had the money to have it fitted yet (not even got prices yet) but i'm thinking i might have to put other things on the waiting list and get the alarm fitted. Things that are on the list that i will be after are; - set of ht leads and king lead - decent set of engine/gearbox mounts - fuel rail adaptor - clutch - standard exhaust manifold that isn't cracked - rear strut brace Not spending a lot on the ct9 setup because i'm hoping to go TD04 or T25 in summer and i have lowering springs so it will be lowered as soon as the weather starts picking up

very nice! those seats are gorgeous, my bloke has them in his almera gti, and i want him to donate them while she's off the road lol. As for insurance, if your willing to pay it and think its worth it then it doesn't matter i suppose. im 20 and have 3 years no claims and i'm paying £650 for mine so hopefully will drop right off after your first year

cheers dude
