[Guest Enzo]

yea totaly, they are rappid for what they are,

after the accident i did not bother drivin my sr for about two months,

when i jumped abck into it about amonth ago for a quick blast it put a smile on my face,

very revhappy!

[Guest Enzo]

how much did you pay for the brakes?

and.

the handling must be spot on now?

[Slim]

:angry: yeah big time solid like a go-cart

[SiCaln]

i would look at this page Geo:

Hi-Spec

Starlets not listed but i bet its equivalent, i was looking at them myself they are the ones i told you baout over the road from me

[Guest Enzo]

aye totaly, i enquired about a kit about a year ago but did not fancy payin for the tooling costs too.

by the sounds of things at a grand it sounds like you might have slim.

no bad thing as they are porn in the brake world!!

i spoke to the guy and told him there was a gap in the market for a specific kit for the

starlet/seo/sera/tercel ect (as they share the samebrakes)

and he didnt want to know.

his reply was "sorry, we only cover the popular cars like fords and vauxhall!

so you have just subjectively dismised a whole generation of cars from the one of the worlds biggest car makers,, alrighty then.

never mind ill stop ranting

hispecs loss

simon has discovered a disc used in the corolla t sport that can be used in conjunction with ttwin piston calipers from the rev+mr2,

sorry i have just hijacked this thred, sorry slim

:angry:

[Simon]

*Mini hijack*

Yep and they are fitted pics this week

[SiCaln]

nice work Si really wanna see and get myself some

[Guest Enzo]

ive plumped for the st205 four pots with 315mil discs from a gt4

ill post up pics on how i get on now that i have something for inspiration

[SiCaln]

hmm im so torn now which to go for lol, 315mm wont fit behind 15" alloys will it?

[Guest Enzo]

16's are a minimum,

300's the limit for some 15" alloys simpathetic to the cause

[Slim]

lads i no they are not listed my 1s were the first 300 mill disc's if you want them they have all the spec from my design so no real waiting and given them a hub they want my car in there site because it is the first starlet to be done

[glenn]

sounds good but has your trd quick shift made any difference that was my next mod & was just wondering does it reduce throw by a lot or is it hardly noticable

[Bilal]

Yeh whats the quick shift liek any good was thinken of gettin 1 meself was recomended not too

[SiCaln]

doing some good work there mate and most of what i initially considered lol

[Slim]

thanks

Yeah a lot it is half the throw i.e. 1st to neutral when they get worn in you can really tell how good it is I say get 1 mate

[shelly_star]

WIsh i still got my SR, fuel is sssssooooooooo good on it, more miles out of it in a full tank than my V

[Guest Enzo]

how many miles/k's do you get out of a tank full shelly?

how was your holiday?

[wylo]

Love my wee starlet aswell i have to admit. I went through 5 cars in a year because i am a car hoar basically. Bought the starlet and didnt like the handling. About a week later got used to it and i love it. Lift off oversteer anyone
