dave-gtturbo Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 Front will be no bother, the rear should be no bother, but not 100% sure Quote Link to post Share on other sites

paul w Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 As they are for your model starlet then at a guess they will fit! If they dont then send em back. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
iamlegend Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 i have the front 1 mate fited no problem Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ste91 Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 I was going to buy the rear one of those (I already had a front one at the time) but I didn't go for it in the end.But I ended up paying £26 for a front one off a GT and £50 for a GReddy rear. (Both prices including postage).If you're in no rush to buy one I'd say wait and grab a bargain and get one that might be a bit better. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JAG Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 Yo matey I got a pair of these front and back they work prety well i noticed a bit of difference but mainly if u hit corners fast u can notice it Altho think it would go nicer with a set of seats and a bit more of a dropBack one fits a treat u have to cut up the lil grey plastic bits around the top of the struts to make them fit but then i also cut the top lid like bits so i just stuck them back on topThe front 1s a lil harder as theres a black plastic cylindery thing (no idea wtf it is as im no mechanic) but me n my dad just bent the braket back for it a bitAlso theres a brake hose or sumin that touches it once u got it on there so we stuck a lil piping round it just to protect it so it didnt rub a hole in it But doubt that would happen any way.The lil black cylindery thing on mine does vibrate on occasions against the strut brace tho but thats only really when i do sumin stupid like pull away in 2nd ;) Hope that helps matey Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ste91 Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 that little cylinder thing is a filter, can't remember wether it's oil or fuel though Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Si@Fiske Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 to be honest any piece of metal that is solid across the front or back will work regardless of brand.. and you should notice a difference, mine seemed to understeer less when i put the tein one on my sr...and the charcoal canistor makes funny noises regardless of wether it hits a strut...

Sparky Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 @ Fishy is it like a an electrical buzzing noise...mine makes that noise Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bourkey Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 I man handled a Glanza front strut on the other day. Was fairly easy except the fuel filter was in the way a touch.I've been meaning to get one of them struts for ages. Just never got round to getting one. As Fishy said any bar will do the job. Some like their JDM makes, which is fair enough but for that price you can't really argue with it.Bourkey Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ste91 Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 Why are some priced over £100 though? It's rediculous... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
