Mikey Jay Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Nice, looking forward to seeing a seriously yellow engine bay Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Liam_D Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 They look sweet mate, where you get them from?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Idrees Posted March 24, 2008 Author Share Posted March 24, 2008 I bought them off Affy from TGTT. He ordered them from Samco and they took 6 week to make and get delivered. He said it was a special request or something, and I think hes right because I've never seen yellow ones on a Starlet before!The vacuum hoses probably came from ebay originally though, I don't think they're Samco.

Liam_D Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Ah ok then mate.I just want some lime green ones for my engine bay, to tidy it up a little bit.I have them cheap plastic ones off ebay but they dont look too good so i want to change them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JAG Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Maximum Yellow! Like the fact u'v kept the lil blue bits in thereLooks kool man Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Idrees Posted March 26, 2008 Author Share Posted March 26, 2008 Thanks for the comments guysI have tried to keep some blue in there and will hopefully be adding more blue in the future. Only a little bit of blue though because I think it looks good with the yellow.Not much of an update but I've got most of the bonnet primed before running out of primerAnd the interior slightly stripped to get this stupid wiring sortedI have also changed the speedo surround to a stock black one which looks better imo and breaks up the yellow.

Idrees Posted April 2, 2008 Author Share Posted April 2, 2008 Just hooked up the FMIC to the inlet with some piping which came through the post for my cousin. I just did it to check out what it would be like, and if I like it I will get my own piping.As you can see the piping didn't fit perfectly but thats because it is suited for a HKS FMIC and not a GReddy! Its on nice and tight though and will do the job of testing.Can't test it out yet because its daylight and the cars not got much petrol! Sound wise, it doesn't sound better than an open cone filter. Its quiet but I don't know what its like on the move. I will report back once the performance has had a little test though!I have also redone all the wiring from the loom to the fuel pump, airbag unit, headunit and cigarette lighter. Hopefully this will sort out all my electrical faults in the car but I will find out once I have replaced the existing fuses (which are blown!) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
