Idrees Posted April 22, 2008 Author Share Posted April 22, 2008 After some help on TGTT, I think I need a new lambda sensor. Can't afford a brand new one though so I'll have to pick up one from the breakers.Boring things I need to buy for the car:Passenger side bumper bracketBonnet catchVertical bar from slam panel to chassisFront brake discsFront brake pads Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bourkey Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Howdy,Front brake discs - Im taking some off Markoo's Glanza this weekend to put some aftermarket ones on. I'll ask him if you can have them as yours is an SR they should fit. I'll give him a text in the morning.Lambda Sensor - You can come and collect for free as i can't be arsed posting and you can have that backbox at the same time. Actually if you still have that strut brace i gave you and you aint using do you wana swap buddy? (sorry i didn't reply to your text. Left my phone at home for 2 days).Make it Saturday the 3rd as thats when the engine will be out. Bourkey Quote Link to post Share on other sites
riko666 Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 if the reserved buyer doesn't go for them, I'll have my Calipers, Pagid Pads and 3G Discs for sale...same upgrade as getting Glanza/Starlet GT brakes, just need to get the hubs Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rob_bower Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 idrees my dear boy ive also got a lambda sensor that i removed from mine thinking it might improve my feul consumptiuon but its not made masses of difference so the sensor must still be good nic!! pm me if you want it and well sort something out!!

Idrees Posted April 23, 2008 Author Share Posted April 23, 2008 Hey James,I was looking to go brand new on the brake discs and pads, but let me know on the condition of the discs and I might have them matey. I will ask my bro when he can up for the exhaust and I'll text you to let you know, and yes you can have the strut brace mate Thanks for the offer Enrico but I'm not looking to upgrade the fronts just yet, spending money elsewhere whilst I just whack on some stock brakes for the time being.@Rob, did you find the problem if it was not the lambda sensor?Anyway, went to the breakers yard today and picked up some bits I need:Bonnet catchVertical bar from slam panelFuse tray coverBumper bracketFront crash barPower steering reservoir topBrake fluid reservior topPlus a few other little bits and bobs.I also have a nice aluminium gear surround coming soon along with a black leather gear gaiter, which I will fit when when I get my Quickshifter kit Steering wheel hasn't arrived yet Picture update coming soon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Galliano Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 quite a shopping list best of luck fitting both hard and easy parts Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nanglebadger Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 aluminium gear surround....where from?? i didnt thibk there were any for the EP mate!Phil. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Idrees Posted April 23, 2008 Author Share Posted April 23, 2008 I swapped it with my brother for my DIN drink holder/free tray.He went to pick up some parts for the GT and the seller had it lying around so my brother had it off him.If you measure the size of the gear surround I'm sure you will be able to pick something up off ebay!

Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SiCaln Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 u realise that the duck spoiler is below the rear window, not above like the rear spoiler?! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Idrees Posted April 25, 2008 Author Share Posted April 25, 2008 Cheers guysYeah Si I think it is safe to say that (apart from the engine which I only know from the outside!)Cujo thanks dude, as Si said the duck spoiler is under the window so does not replace the top Glanza one.I could have an awesome suspension update coming soon but I will know for sure on Monday.
