Idrees Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 Hey guys,Here is the late replacement for my old White Quadlight that I had back in January 2010, it had slight accident damage and I was supposed to get it back on the road to use daily but the damage turned out to be more than I imagined. I then had the idea of re-shelling it with the EP85 that Enzo imported for me, and by this time the Glanza was costing a lot to build so I had to sell up and cancel that project. However this can now be the EP82 Demo car instead Thanks to Shib who sold it to me for a decent price, it's a Mark 2 with Mark 3 goodness, ie. facelift Quadlights and tailgate. The bodywork seems fair, the front bumper needs to be sorted and she could do with a good polish up. More importantly however, one of the pistons is suspected to be cracked so an engine rebuild is on the cards. I have a set of good, low mileage pistons and rods so may have them chemically cleaned and drop them in with new rings; I'll have to strip it to see what the damage is before seeing how extensive the rebuild will be.The car is going back to stock engine wise, and the money will go towards getting her on the road and some choice ID-Workz exterior styling. The first to go will be the Black indicators! Aftermarket parts include the following, most of which is up for sale:Tein CoiloversEnkei 15" AlloysJperformance FMICStainless ManifoldStainless DecatHKS ActuatorWalbro Fuel PumpJDM ExhaustOil Filter RelocationCheers for looking Idrees Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Idrees Posted December 6, 2010 Author Share Posted December 6, 2010 Ah, don't expect anythin too special I think it's a Momo wheel, looks exactly like the one I had in my Green GT. Yes Luke I always need a new parking spot If I had a yard where I could park cars, this wouldn't be my 12th Starlet.. It would probably be my 50th! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Idrees Posted December 12, 2010 Author Share Posted December 12, 2010 A little update on this.I haven't done any work to the car yet as I've been at Uni since the night it arrived at mine.However I bought another GT (1995) that is ideal to use for parts, so the engine out of that one will be going in this. My brother has been extremely helpful (for once ) and has removed the engine with the help of one of my mates.So once I'm home by the end of this week, after sending out everyone their parts I'll be hopefully getting the engine fitted. The donor car:If only there were 4 of those pink rims, I could have used them on this Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Idrees Posted December 23, 2010 Author Share Posted December 23, 2010 Small update, I managed to get my hands on these beauties..15x7" Sparco Crimsons wrapped in new Parada Spec 2s, they have a lovely dish to them compared to the other sized popular Sparcos.Toyosports TD04 Manifold & DownpipeTanabe suspensionI was wondering the car wouldn't start up, and then found this..A bit of anti-freeze couldn't have hurt lucky it wasn't a mint engine as I would not be happy if it was!I also managed to get the engine out with help from my mate, he's always helping me work on my cars, total legend.

Idrees Posted December 23, 2010 Author Share Posted December 23, 2010 Cheers for the comments guys. Daz we will have to wait and see mate. I want to get it braced from flange to flange before fitting though and I'll also brace the turbo itself with some DIY brackets! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
