Starlet__SR Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 Nice little car there you've got, the colour iss pretty nice lol. As for the suspension, you still thinking of a big drop?And for the exhaust, try and get a tte backbox, it'd suit it nicely.And I have a clear front indicator if you want it, other one was smashed when I killed my car, but its there if you want it, as for the remix bumper, you may be well having a look through the technical section, part numbers and pics etcDamien Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LukeSR Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 I actually like that colour, i wouldn't mind my SR being that colour Liking the progress so far though ;)Get it slammed asap! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hummm any forsale?In Time i think ill get a Remix.. i'll see what price my friend can get 1 for.Thanks for the comments There's not really much choice to be honest, i'll be fitting some tein s-tech springs to mine tomorrow, can take some pics to give you the idea of the level, otherwise you'd be pretty much buggered. It's either a cheap set of coilovers, or airbags lol.As for the backbox, you're best keeping an eye out, best people to ask are the ones braking SR's. They're a really nice exhaust, and it's made by remus. Try ebay maybe? Or look in the for sale section on here.As for the remix, go for it, it'll look different on a 5 door!Damien Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jade_Star Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Very nice Starlet there Well done with the makeover looks tidy. I wanted a Starlet that colour but couldnt find one about.You should lower by 40mm in my opinion. Be nice to see what else you do with her ;)Jade x Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Natalie Posted August 21, 2009 Author Share Posted August 21, 2009 Awww Guys thanks for all of the nice comments..Well i've ordered some ROC 40mm Springs.. if its not enough i'll buy some coilovers, if its ok, i'll buy some Koni Shockers.I've also got my hands on some wheels.. and i bet there is no starlet in the world with them on Right Just need a back box, clear front indicators, then save up for the Remix front bumper ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nanglebadger Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 40mm will be plenty, mine is lowered 40mm too and its grand, although even on 15"s speedbumps are a nightmare!Phil. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They're a really nice exhaust, and it's made by remus. Try ebay maybe? Or look in the for sale section on here.have a look at this although quite expensive, but looks really well.40mm will be plenty, mine is lowered 40mm too and its grand, although even on 15"s speedbumps are a nightmare!Phil.Il second that, my car is off the road again as we speak, due to my petrol tank taking a hit going over a really bad speedbump (second time this has happened ) mines only lowered 40mm on standard SR shocks.Adam Quote Link to post Share on other sites
