Ah damn, I forgot you have your drivers side to the right.


Gives me cringe everytime I see a RHD from the front. Not because of the steering wheel but because of the window wipers. They look so wrong to me because being on the other side :D


In my opinion you should heighten it a bit again and fix the bodywork (rust, broken boot handle and stuff) and You`ll really love it again and it will be much more fun to drive I think. And get the Glanza Spoiler on, it looks awesome.

I always think the same with the left hand drives haha!

I probably will raise it a bit, which is difficult because I don't have coilovers on the rear, the bodywork is actually the worst part of the car, the previous owner wasn't a very good judge of distance so theres scrapes on every corner, and dents everywhere! I have been meaning to fix the boot trim again as its snapped before, need to buy some glue and re wrap it, just long!

Spoiler wise, I was thinking about one of those big flat and long ones, like on Tris' GT, but, im in debt even more now I got the new wheels!

,

Really do like them new wheels :)

Literally cannot wait to get them on!!

Found a can of red oxide primer while tidying my shed up earlier, thought I may aswell make a start painting the steels!

Only a quick first coat for now

Seriously thinking of leaving them in red oxide, And painting the writing on the tyres white

And with some black wheel nuts eventually haha

What do you guys reckon?

Personally i would want them glossy red but thats just me. Defo do the writing on the tyres white though love that idea. :thumbsup:

They didn't look right when I test fitted them, gone for a different colour niw

I think it would look decent if you did a light layer of black. So that you can still see the red underneath.

As above, given up on the red now

Oxide red banded steels with spear horn centre caps like chariots of fire..

Wouldve been cool aha

Well, its been an un-eventful few weeks, paying off my debts before I get tyres for the steels.

Did however re tint my car at work, No one even noticed it was tinted beforehand aha!

And this is how I get the car into the workshop

All for now.

Love the style of this car. Please dont ever glanza kit it though. Looks pants. The more rounded snub nose angles of the starlet na suit it waaaay more than the glanza kit. Looking forward to seeing the bandeds on it.

Cheers shorty! After seeing how much the glanza parts were i soon changed my mind aha, could never afford it all!

My mate found a picture of the starlet from a year ago when i tried the first g60 on it

Also picked up a spare bumper from dave (freedomcore) to have a little play with, and an rsturbo splitter. Dont know what im doing with them yet but ive got a few ideas
