  1. are these the same for turbo and N/A starlet ? thanks
  2. haha thanks, should be a lot of fun when on the road. seeing peoples faces
  3. ah right , you got a lucky escape. nice little shell thow and yeh couldn't of helped the engine
  4. little update , got the m9 socket for removing the head. so off came the head , the valves came out , all look okay and none bent so i gave them a clean up , washed the head. all i need now is a decent crank , without breaking the bank. Question - would i need to balance the crank ? :/ i didnt think i would have to? also can i use 1 piston and rod from one engine and 3 from a different engine? i will weigh them to make sure they are all same 'ish' weight. why would a engine have 3 number '2' pistons in and 1 number '1' in ? the V8 in the back ground is a Dodge nascar cam rig engine ;)
  5. the head seems alright i have a new block, need a new crank. nothing had gone through the turbo so heads all good
  6. did you know it had dropped a rod? and thanks EP91BON looking forward to it
  7. right guys this if my first ever starlet so go easy going for a sleeper ;) to start of with i brought it with 'bearing knock' , thought it shouldn't be to hard to fix. how wrong i was:( funny bearing ayy , so its dropped a rod on cyl 3 , punched though the block and sump, destroyed the crank. so im going to rebuild it standard as im only aiming for around 180-200bhp, I've picked up another bottom end to find out thats spun a bearing on cyl 1 :@ , im going to try and polish it out but not sure if it will be usable. plans are : rebuild engine FMIC Fuel pressure regulator fuel cut

  12. cant find and reasonable prices forged rods, i know there not cheap but dont want to be paying silly money
  13. ah right , just trying to get a decent set of rods for cheap as possible , would them rods be okay to use with standard pistons ?
