Have never had a short shifter in any car, might have to see what all the fuss is about

Olive

We send a lot of boxes to A.S.K Transmission in Falkirk, top work never had any come backs with them. Worth a phone call at least. I imagine it will be about 500 but really depends whats wrong with it.

It was already built when the owner previous to the owner before you had it. Was in Central Scotland then across to Edinburgh.

My ignition timing was 1 degree retarded, set it to 10 BTDC, still the same. Set the TPS, still the same, fucked about with the knock sensor, still the same fuckin fault. I know this fuckin shitey FPR i bought is fucked so thats obviously not helping matters. Does anyone know what pressure the N/a FPR runs at ? Same as a turbo starlet 2.4 bar ? Think am gonna change the MAP sensor... Just to recap, fault is very boggy on low revs, fine higher up rev range. Anybody have any suggestions ? (apart from setting the bastard alight because thats very tempting atm)

Cant see pic on my phone properly but i think its a clock spring its called.

I remember the car vaguely, dont know who had it before the last owner but it was like 20 miles from me, seen it a couple times. Had the Enkei big end rodders and a padded cage etc. There are quite a few P***JMS reg cars around here, think its a Scottish registered area code.

Buying a car from Ireland it the way forward, good few of my mates have bought Jap cars from Ireland in the past 6 months. Better choice Better condition generally Cheaper Easy to register here, or if bought from N.I no need to re register it Would seriously give it a go dude, theres not a lot of decent Starlets for sale in the UK atm, and chances are youre gonna have to travel for a good one anyway

Aye this had a N.I plate.

I normally just throw things about and shout lol. Thanks for the offer man, am certain ive another TB with a TPS on it buried in the car somewhere. Will dig it out and try. So i'll set timing, set fueling once i get this fuckin FPR sorted and swap the TPS over.

Is your engine actually knocking ?

Doesnt quite work on a sleeper though does it haha

I take it that its this one ? http://m.gumtree.com/p/toyota/glanza-turbo-sale-or-swap-for-something-faster-.-no-rush-to-sell/1070175911 Im in Alva all the time and have never seen this !! Haha

Nah we dont have one at work, but am gonna try it pikey style with a can of spray lol.

Yeah with feeler gauges and a multimeter. Im using a Gen1 FE inlet & TB which are identical to the turbo ones but maybe the actual sensor is different who knows.

I put a new one on when it was still N/a, i put the engine back in and it was 100% Its only since ive put the turbo parts on its not been right. Do you think a TPS would cause this ? I might unplug it and see if its improved.

Yeah got a GT MAP sensor off a running MK3. And yeah i know just didnt have one to hand. Will get that sorted and retry. Yeah Shaun i got one of those blanks and it was the same so ruling out the wastegate.

I reckon less than 500 GTs and Glanzas in the UK. Probably a good few in Ireland.

Now i'm running out of ideas, thinking TPS or MAP sensor ?? Considering turning it back to N/a....

Having a few issues with this Got this boost problem, well lack of boost i think, car feels very boggy and hardly moves till way up the rev range. I'm certain its not an intercooler leak, core holds pressure and all pipes and joiners are solid. When core is bypassed its still the same. I've two different turbos here a VF12 and a VF10, same problem with each one, i know for sure the VF10 is ok because it ran bang on in my pals V. The VF12 visually looks perfect with no oil leakage or shaft play. The EWG is just an ebay one but its brand new. Issue is the same with o2 plugged in and also unplugged. I was using the standard 85 FPR, unsure what pressure it was so i bought a brand new adjustable FPR and the problem is still there, although i know the FPR is faulty because it wont adjust lol !! I've got standard turbo injectors which seem to work ok, the ECU is from my GT so thats working. The ignition timing does need set but it shouldn't cause this. The throttle cable is adjusted perfectly.

No i havent unfortunately. See your key is it just a metal blade ?

The only thing i can think of is this. Im not entirely sure what it is tbh. Duno if its relevant or not. It sits just infront of the ABS ECU in my 85, it was plugged in when i got the car but since i changed the looms for GT looms there was no plug for it.

Wish a could it would be awesome but got holidays and shit to pay for haha. And aye James id defo be requesting better pics.

Does it work though ?

Would be faster than the UK N/a starlets, this is the 100ps one
