I couldnt list the amount of metal i listen to, not many people know dead by april though! But not a goth, my music tastes from parkway drive to biggie ahaha

Went out to my car this morning only to find some fucking twat has hit it and fucked off! Ever since ive had this car i park away from everyone ele to avoid annoying shit like this! Never had this happen on any of my sheds but soon as i get a nice car some cunt hits it, ruined my friday this has!

Another weekend and some more bits done! This weekend the focus was on the exhaust, got the toyosports decat fitted and got the japspeed rear section extended, is it really neccessary to have a 3inch exhaust on a starlet? Its virtually impossible to have it without it knocking on anything! Apologies for the snapchat screenshots but i forgot to take actual pictures. And the back box is past the rear bumper finally! Little shot from a few weeks ago at a local cruise And some more 'Just cleaned my car' pics Cheers man, looks alot better since you saw it ah
-
If anyone can't make it I'm on the lookout for two tickets and a stand pass!

Still available dude! Might be able to post for extra

Na was knackered, left at 10! Might come to the cruise tonight if anyone's there?

I'll be in mk but at a mates bday gathering aha

Got a few repair jobs done today, wired the boost gauge in properly, wired the sub remote cable properly, finally sorted the rattle from the drivers door out, put screws in the heater controls as it was missing 2 out of 3 so it keep falling into the dash and I cleaned it, while it was raining. Also fitted a splitter yesterday Also ordered my decat, a new reducer in black to replace the bodged blue crap on the dump valve, new bushes for the gear linkages and some black and purple vacuum hose because I hate the blue! It so much better, gotta sort out some slight scrubbing issues, an
-
Ah ok, will have to look into doing that then! I've just blanked off my dump valve as whoever fitted it was a bodge artist, they clamped a sillicone hose onto a sillicone hose! Just bought a reducer but gotta wait for it to turn up, will this harm the turbo? And will not having the cat temp sensor affect anything? because the seat I've bought doesn't have the hole for it And yeah that's exactly what my old starlet was like aha! Took 2 years to get through the sump though, that and all the footwells were pushed up

Not a real update, got and exedy clutch from glanza Ben, mines rattling its tits off currently, will get swapped out soon as it slips. Just won a toyosports decat on eBay for cheap too, and organizing the bits the relocate my air filter, might be sticking a bike can out the back as well as I hate the back box it currently has, that'll probably be it for performance for the foreseeable future! Anyhow, now it's lowered i can help but to take loads of pictures, apologies! I love this pic How I park as much as I can, away from people. Got the red turd going You can also see the b

Yeah its quite annoying when its still a bit cold i can barely hit 30 without boosting! My mate thats got a gt4 was saying them boys put some kind of restrictor in the decat to avoid boost creep? Does that sound like something that could help? Yeah itll be getting wired up asap, i dont have the tools for wiring gotta wait till me and my mate are both off work at the same time, spent a few days doing the clutch on his scoob last week. Yeah i think its stil the japspeed, i hate it, and its too short so it burns the bumper and knocks of the rear floopan! I might have a slight misfire then
-
Ah ok i thought the second one was a post cat lambda, thats a relief, i won a toyosports decat on ebay for cheap and i just hate how droney and toneless the exhaust note is! How does the high lo work? Yep standard ct9, i do but it doesnt work currently ive gotta re wire it as the previous owner just stuffed the wires into the back of the stereo block! I try and drive off boost but shit its so addictive! I dont think it could sound much worse, its just noise atm, if it didnt have a dump valve id feel like a 17 year old in 1 litre corsa with a loud exhaust! What does fuel cut feel l
-
Got a list of questions so i thought id write a thread Firstly, how much worse on fuel will my gt turbo be if i decat it? because obviously its got the two lambda sensors will it run badly? Will a motorbike can be too restrictive? I dont like the 4 inch exit exhaust and ive got a can sitting at my mates What can i do to make it quicker without changing intercooler and retaining the high low boost button? Im still paying off buying the car so Im keeping mods to a minimum for now. I realy enjoy the high low button because it means im never bored of how fast it is when i put it on
-
So, been working on this some more... Yesterday i fitted my d2 rear coilies Then i went and removed a set of ISC coilovers from my mate matts old gls and fitted my lowering srings and shocks on his. This morning, at half 9 in the goddamn rain, i swapped my teins out for the isc ones. And this is how it sits Still needs fine tuning but it looks a shit ton better! Also fitted some of them washers and bolts in neo chrome to smarten up the bay abit Can anyone tell me what sized silicone reducer hose i need to buy to get rid of thi
-
Just a quick one on my way to work this morning And I've found a set of Coilovers in my price range, picking them up later tonight! Cheers bro! Gonna look better when I get these coilys on it aha!

Just gonna bump this up! After finding out my teins are blown up and un-bearable to drive on. Will these do the trick? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Coilover-Height-Adjustable-Shock-front-VW-Golf-Mk2-Mk3-Estate-SW-Cabrio-/361009350294?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&fits=Model%3AGolf|Plat_Gen%3AMK+II&hash=item540dd58696 Also, if you have to use the starlet top nut, will the camber top mounts off my teins fit them do you reckon? -
Fitted my tein Coilovers off of my n/a today, and I'll be changing them back tomorrow, can't believe I used to drive daily with suspension like this! They truly have no oil left in them at all! Looks so good lower though, despite the tale Definitely looking into 5ecolins polo coilies method! Got d2s for the back but it's the front that sits well high! Cheers for that dude found some for 8.50, after I've sorted Coilovers out I'll be buying all the little bits like this
-
Yeah the front exit was Andrew, and the tdo4 Ryan aha, I'm never at mk much, police are all to hot for my previous cars lol
-
Yeah was them guys was who got me into starlets, theyve all moved on to scoobys silvias etc, all still say to this day they miss theyre starlets! And yeah its moved to luton now as they kicked us out of white lion, its now just passed the casino under the flyover. I might be up mk on sunday if people are?
-
It's not that bad, it's not good either though I won't lie!
-
Wheels look banging! Putting a spoiler on?
-
Any of you fellas venture to Luton on a Wednesday night? I know Ryan used to but I never see any starlets round my area!
-
I know I do need to get it done, cannot afford it yet though, spending so much money on fuel, done 1600 kms in the three weeks I've had it! Added them I'd workz ones to my to do list aha! And seen as I'm bored at work here's another picture I also put the tein coilies back together with all the helpers and adjusters back in, they seem ok but I won't know if they are till I drive on them, hopefully get them fitted one day after work
