  1. Ok I have found the problem. And yes I am an idiot lol.



    This bolt was left out of the box. I cant get it in now because whatever it screws into inside the gearbox doesn’t line up. Does anyone know how I can get it fitted with the box in the car?



    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  2. Im having a problem selecting reverse. It grinds a lot. I have just changed the gearbox, including the fork and release bearing. The clutch seemed in good condition when I had the box out. It’s a lot worse now with the new gearbox. It can barely get it into reverse. The forward gears are all fine. Has anyone any ideas what the problem could be? Can the clutch pedal be adjusted?



    by the way, its an n/a EP82


  3. Ive been having issues with my n/a 4EFE bogging down at low revs. I tried to calibrate the TPS but the switching point seemed to keep changing making it impossible to set correctly so I guess it is faulty.



    I have been looking for a new one and notice the later model n/a have a fixed non adjustable one. Could that be used on my car?


  4. Guys,



    This a bit of a strange request. Im looking for some springs (standard type, not coilovers) that are stiffer than standard (approx. 180 lbs) but are standard height (or close). This is for motorsport reasons with restrictive regulations. Before I go to the expense of getting springs made, does anyone have any ideas? Maybe cynos ones or somethings? Anyone know if there any options out there?


  5. Ive had a set of Magnacor leads for a while which have caused various misfire problems. When Magnacor tried to charge to fix their crappy leads I decided enough was enough. (their 10 year guarantee means nothing).



    I then bought some cheap 'japanparts' ones to keep me going. All misfire problems disappeared, but they are extremely tight in the head bores and feel like they will fall apart when I pull them out.



    So I'm looking for a decent set of leads. I would go for genuine Toyota but I assume they are big money. Can anyone recommend a good quality set of leads for reasonable money?



    by the way the car is a n/a 4EFE


  6. If the TPS calibration is out would it cause this or does that just affect idle?



    There was about a quarter of a tank in it. Might just have been fuel swashing away from pump. Not too worried about that, just thought it might be connected.


  7. Guys, Ive had a problem for a while with my JDM 4EFE n/a starlet. Its bogs down on low RPM but then revs cleanly once it gets up the revs. Its got progressively worse and now is very bad. Once its hits about 4000 rpm it goes like stink but below that its dead. And a new problem started yesterday, on a very long fast corner is dies completely for a few seconds and then goes again. Seems like fuel starvation.



    Any suggestions? Could it be the throttle position sensor?
