Was it overbored when getting rebuilt ? Idealy you want to do a 'leak down test' for this you would need a compressed air supply. Basically lets you know how much and where gas is escaping from in the engine, ie past the bores or through the valves if theyre not sealing correctly. Theres a bit more to it than that but you get the idea. The engine builders should have donw this before handing you your engine back.

Very smart looking SR there man ;)

Another thread lol. Things to check, fan relay and wiring to the fan switch sensor/sensor itself on the thermostat housing. Get the multimeter out and do some continuity checks The AC sensor is only to do with GTs yes.

Right first of all wheres the pics of your new Glanza, christ sakes you rookie. This homemade shifter might be messing up the throw maybe ?, id put it back to normal just to see. Failing that it'll probably be the old syncro job :/ There is a rod at the the top of the clutch pedal iirc to adjust out the freeplay.

I personally wouldnt run an ebay exhaust. Put up a wanted thread or look through the sales section for a nice Jap system, like the makes we have mentioned Blitz, HKS, R*SR, 5zigen etc.

Maybe its dear because people dont insure them right, something happens like a crash and insurance wont pay out because it wasnt insured right, therefore putting everyones insurance up. Dont get me wrong buddy i fucking hate insurance and its the biggest fucking scam going but all cars should be properly insured.

Better than what ? A japspeed is a rep of the blitz nur spec, the one i linked ^^

It the alarm sapping power over night and killing the battery ? Mind it is cold so a weak battery will die quick in winter. Does is start first time with jump leads on ?

Nah i havent but beem to other exhaust places in the past, they all do the same kinda thing

Buy this backbox and take it to them. And they'll make up the rest of the pipes. http://www.ukstarletowners.com/topic/72413-blitz-nur-spec-r-backbox/ And it'll sound better than some tin can they'll supply. I assume anyway

Was it Gerry's car ? If so he made a thread about it. http://www.ukstarletowners.com/topic/71443-big-problem-oil-all-came-out-breather-hose-on-top-of-rocker-cover/

Already said it Ryan hahaha.

Bras are for tits buddy Mikey boy on here had a set of headlight protectors for sale the other day.

It opens at 75°C rather than 83°C, not really that much of a difference compared to a low temp stat which is around 50 odd.

Might not be the earth reading your post again, but worth a try. Its right in the corner in the bay, where the washer bottle is if you dont have ABS or if you do its still in the same place but its infront of the ABS pump. Easy to see, 10mm bolt through it.

Pair of vice grips should get it out mate if you dont have a stud remover.

Youd have to show me how to weld first lol.

Welcome to UKSO, pics please, i love silver GTs !!!

Sounds like an earth issue. There is an earth point near the drivers side light, check that

Think you should keep this one kinda standard and then go all out on that GT shell you have

I've been in a standard GT and it wasn't fast haha.

Ehh ehh ehhh well, i have only ever driven my 85 once, up and down my street haha, then i ripped it apart. That was August i think

You've had it 6 weeks or so and its not even on the road yet ? Lol.

^^ What you should have said was, 'I fancy getting stranded for the winter' haha.
