Lukey_B Posted June 7, 2007 Posted June 7, 2007 Im pretty new, and my computers being really slow. so im a bit annoyed.couldnt load any pics on here itself, because my pc's being that slow. bt i managed to chuck some pics into a slideshow...my mate (if you can call him that...) drove into my passenger side, hence the 'sportif' sticker is only on one side... but yeah, you wouldnt be able to tell any more http://s9.photobucket.com/albums/a74/kurtm...=1181223844.pbwlet me know what you think... and ideas for any mods will be appreciated just gotta find the money...

Starletmeech Posted June 7, 2007 Posted June 7, 2007 wrong section mate! lol that's pretty much what mine looked like when i bought her! apart from the wheels (i got an extra 2 spokes )you should lower her! Quote
Lukey_B Posted June 7, 2007 Author Posted June 7, 2007 yeah man, i aint been into cars for that long tho... quite recent. hence why advice will be so greatly accepted my mate got me into starlets and he's runnin a GT Turbo, with loads of stuff done to it. very quick.have you declared your lowering? Quote
Starletmeech Posted June 7, 2007 Posted June 7, 2007 fuck have i! That would be mad it'd be too pricey to declare plus Direct line don't like it! Quote
Lukey_B Posted June 7, 2007 Author Posted June 7, 2007 i know, i was just messing, think i read in another post that you hadnt' hahah. Quote
Starletmeech Posted June 7, 2007 Posted June 7, 2007 it is slightly passable apart from the obvious its not very high off the ground, i will measure it tonight! Quote
Lukey_B Posted June 7, 2007 Author Posted June 7, 2007 does look very low from the pics mate. i mean, look at mine, and compare it to yours? 'nuff said! Quote
SiCaln Posted June 7, 2007 Posted June 7, 2007 you're playing with fire by not insuring mods - if u have a crash u wont be insured Quote
Fogdoggydog Posted June 7, 2007 Posted June 7, 2007 I think the majority of us will have declared their mods. It makes sense - if you crash and they find out you have lowering springs on it, they will right out refuse to pay anything. Quote

Lukey_B Posted June 7, 2007 Author Posted June 7, 2007 any suggestions wat to go for first my friend? what to upgrade/add like? Quote
Sparky Posted June 7, 2007 Posted June 7, 2007 Well im banned matey...long story, theres a few thread about it But only about 6 weeks left Quote
Lukey_B Posted June 8, 2007 Author Posted June 8, 2007 ill go for a look now for the thread! gutted tho mate! bet you cant wait till your back up and running ? Quote
RoSsSr16v Posted June 8, 2007 Posted June 8, 2007 y dont u start thinkin what u cud do to the car that wont cost u money mate? eg.. take off your bump strips take off any stickers etc the toyota and starlet stickers on the rear and when u get a few bob in your pocket u can go n buy a small part each week eg clear indicator lenses and just keep her clean until u have the cash not everyone has the money there and then its about building it up, may take u 3months may take u 3yrs but we all start with basic motors and put on the finishing touches to personalise our cars Quote
Lukey_B Posted June 8, 2007 Author Posted June 8, 2007 yeah man, was gna ask about that, (saw it in a thread earlier), but whats the easiest way to take the side stickers and all that jazz off? im guessing its gna have to have something to do with warm water, or a hairdrier, because its a solvent adhesive?
