when I started this post my reason behind finishing is that if I was to sell up id never see anywhere near to what ive spent so I may as well finish and enjoy it for a while, but since then ive found the love again and I cant wait to get behind the wheel my glanza is going nowhere

Bump

tuning developments are on holiday till end of the month

cheers matey

have a issue with my knock sensor after rebuild not sure if its wiring or actual sensor but looking for another regardless

brand of this FPR is malpassi bud good price as well

is this anyones off here freshly forged engine selling up, strange though its on a CT9 hybrid and stock clutch why would you need to forge it ????? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/toyota-starlet-glanza-/251317984105?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item3a83b81b69

sounds good to me bud

I shall check and get back to you mate

Ok guys starting to feel the starlet love coming back now don't know what happened the other day but I came to my senses well shes finally back on 4 wheels so went for a little ride round our workshop and all seems well, still need to sort out the power steering bracket and clearances need to be checked along with timing with a gun oh and boost controller needs to be plumbed in other than that she's road worthy cheeky 4 wheel shot I forgot how low slung she is after driving the BB round it feels like im on the floor haha

small world

weeman do you work over the road for nightfreight then ?

im not gonna lie jay, but I don't know what the clearance should actually be

haha yeah that's mine we have our workshop on the side of there

yes as far as I know as I bought the head from jake so I just took it that he hadn't moved them around so neither did I but good news as ive sorted the issue with the gearbox and clutch, I don't have a clue what was causing it but I can now select all gears clutch is now bled as well so only knock sensor and clearances and couple of hoses still need to be done and shes ready for a first run

Never been in a td04 starlet

yeah i used old shims mate

not great tbh matey

gonna move it out the yard asap and out side the house so I can get it finished mate if you could lend and hand that would be awesome as im scratching my head right now lol

no Colchester bud I met him the other day nice guy

yeah jay hes another southend boy I told you theres a few of us around

im just down the road from you buddy im Basildon way

Cheers guys I know your all right, its just hard to shake that feeling sometimes thats why I love this forum as it is a constant source of encouragement dunno what id do without u guys in fairness everytime I look at other cars nothing compares to my glanza anyway so dunno why im fucking looking

so my glanza builds nearly finished but im having a few niggley problems and im starting to loose the will to actually finish it, I keep finding myself browsing ebay to see what else is out there rather than getting on with the job in hand its such a shame as im nearly there anyone got some words of encouragement or been in the same boat ? been without my glanza for nearly 9 months now ive forgotten what boost even feels like
