I C well it's a good thing I didn't take his word and buy a BZR tranny

When I was in a shop in Japan contemplating the trd gears for the starlet. I was told the car would max out around 160kph or something ridiculous like that.In mainland japan they said they found better results for acceleration from the 6speed from the BZR levin. They told be it would bolt right on but you would have to alter the console as the shifter would not be in the same spot. I'm not sure how easy it is to get a beefed up BZR clutch and how strong that tranny is.

Hey Max, beginning of July i'll be moving to the Mildenhall area from japan and i have a few items you might be interested in.

My speedo only reads up to 180kmph but burried it around 200-210?
-
LMAO i feel better about myself lol

I've experienced something similar and it was my plug wires so could be ignition related. Check plugs, wires, distributor cap and the contacts and make sure free of corrosion.

Ive got the Jam ECU, tein coil overs, hks ram intake, fcd, stock ct9 turbo, stock radiator, charge speed bucket seat w/ ep91 rail and i might have a couple other items. The shipper is coming on monday I thought about buying some more items from www.upgarage.com but they don't have too many items for the starlet. Mostly a couple sets of tein coilovers for about $650, trd front sway and cusco rear sway for $100 but I still have contacts in Japan where I could keep them shipped VERY reasonably. So I could show you guys how to use the site and if you see a steal I'm sure I could pester my frie

No still have the ECU, im going to be moving from japan to mildenhall area here in about a month so when I get all my household stuff from being shipped I'll hit you up if your interested or post it up in the "for sale section"

Oil Pressure Issue Advice Needed

Oil Pressure Issue Advice Needed
Hawaiiviper replied to Hawaiiviper's topic in 4E-FTE Engine Discussions
While rpm's are dropping (let's say from 6K) it's like they continue to drop below 1K and my idle doesn't catch and the car stalls. So i'll end up having to start and keep the rev's up for 10-15 seconds and it seems to fix itself. I figure it's oil pressure because of my oil p. gauge gets to low and the car stalls. I was just trying to see if my oil pump was weak or if there was something to check as far as my idle to adjust/fix. But 95% of the time the car runs smooth. -
I've had a small issue with my Glanza stalling due to the oil pressure/idle not kicking in when the rpm's drop. I have plenty of oil in my engine, it only does it every now and then I wasn't sure if the oil pump has taking a shit or it was my idler not kicking in or something of that nature. Any advice is appreciated.

10w-40/10w-30 Royal Purple for 6 years car still runs like a champ......but I do make sure I let my engine oil temp register on the gauge before boosting on it.

Sorry I should have clarified a little more, John got what I was trying to say I don't know how hard it would be but say giving paying members a 24hr jump on buying parts from members(not traders) as an added incentive. Especially with some of the deals i've seen so far (hating i'm not in the U.K. yet to capitalize) i think it would be sweet!
