Lee-Robo Posted December 13, 2015 Author Posted December 13, 2015 looks so good Just had a read through, really liking this build. Keep it up Cheers lads! Really appreciated Quote
Lee-Robo Posted December 13, 2015 Author Posted December 13, 2015 So the other week I decided I wanted to do the amber sidelight mod, so I went to the scrapyard to get a double filament bulb holder. I was told Almera ones fitted with modification to the indicator unit but I had a look around in the scrappy and Paseo rear light bulb holder are more or less a direct fit to starlet indicator units! just have to snap a tiny lug off the Paseo holders and the fit right in like OEM fitment. So I soldered them in to the indicator wires and scotch locked them into the side lights and they work perfect! I've also got the car back into the bodyshop at the minute because there was a little bit of rust starting to come through on the back of the sills and I wanted to get it addressed before it they went into big holes! thats all been repaired and just waiting on getting painted again but I decided to get some U-POL Raptor underseal tinted to 3E5 red and sprayed halfway up the sills like most modern cars have these days, just to keep the rust back! Looks pretty much OEM but I'll get some pictures once its all finished Quote
Westley Posted December 17, 2015 Posted December 17, 2015 Want to come underseal mine for me? the amber lights are cool, Ive seen a lot of Jdm cars with the mod done Quote
Russleh Posted December 18, 2015 Posted December 18, 2015 All these tidy cars I keep seeing are making me have ep withdrawals lol . Also for just a split second when I looked at the pic of you panhard rod and timing cover I thought interesting choice to have cushions in your back seats then I realised its the couch haha Quote
Lee-Robo Posted February 1, 2016 Author Posted February 1, 2016 So over the pas month I've got a few bits done. I fitted a new bosch battery, a Race work developments battery tie down and oil cap and polished up the rocker cover. I also fitted some 10mm spacers on the front to give it a little bit more poke. I also bought a false floor from Bradley Jenkins Jap Performance featured Glanza, so I wrapped it all in suede to match the door cards and got that fitted in and I got some pics of the raptor line on the sills. Pics.. Quote

Westley Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 Yeah same here, just a bit slowed down after Christmas as my bank suddenly got rather emptier xD Thanks! Do you have any more plans for the rear? Quote

Pikey009 Posted February 3, 2016 Posted February 3, 2016 By the way I don't think you should go for a glanza spoiler, go for a gt ;) Quote
Sparkythestarlet Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 Looking good mate are you going to japfest also I really need one of those false floors how much was it? Quote
Galliano Posted March 4, 2016 Posted March 4, 2016 Looks great. I liked the Sportif SR Decals too. What happened to your old wheels? I'd be interested in them if they're for sale. Quote
Lee-Robo Posted March 25, 2016 Author Posted March 25, 2016 Been a while since i updated, so I haven't really done much to the car but it passed it mot again with no advisories! and I have bought a glanza tailgate, spoiler, rear bumper, side skirts and another plate surround, so I trial fitted them on the car and I have also bought another N/A front bumper that I'm going to flush in on the sides, I also managed to get hold of an espace front splitter that I might fit if i decide to fit the glanza rear. I also bought a whiteline rear anti roll bar that I plan on fitting in the next couple of weeks. I went to fit the adjustable panhard rod and found out that its not from a starlet! so I've ordered up a new whiteline one from id workz that should be getting fitted next weekend when it arrives. so with them mods I'm hoping it handles a bit better! Whilst I had the back bumper off i decided to cavity wax it all and take the little plastic air covers out of the rear and fill them right up with cavity wax as well to hopefully prevent any further rust! Oh and I also coloured the writing in on the tyres white, Give me your opinions on the glanza rear... Quote
*Pete* Posted March 26, 2016 Posted March 26, 2016 Looks good! And some pretty nice locations for photos! Quote
EP70-PT Posted March 26, 2016 Posted March 26, 2016 What grids are those exactly? There's a lot of models and some without dish... Best looking N/A this one Quote
Rich-k Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 Awesome as always mate the glanza bits are gunna look mint! Quote

Lee-Robo Posted April 10, 2016 Author Posted April 10, 2016 So I've got a couple of things done to the starlet this weekend, The panhard rod i bought from ID-Workz turned up so i got that fitted, makes a nice difference and fitment on the rear is better! plus it doesn't take long to do. I also bought a C pillar brace, its for a Civic but with a bit of playing about it fits perfectly with or without rear seat belts I also thought id upgrade the oem parcel shelf speakers with something a bit better, they're halfords specials but they do the job nicely! In the next little while im going to be fitting the rear anti roll bar and I also got hold of a pair of jdm Mitsuba Alpaha horns that im going to be fitting Quote
