Winter 2007 Update

I've decided to release part of my update otherwise I will get behind.

I've been busy since the last update and have added some choice support parts to the engine, namingly a Section Engine Damper, TRD engine mounts and Earls red braided clutch line.

Here is what you get with the engine damper.

The TRD engine mounts when they were waiting to go in.

I will get some photos of the engine bay soon so that you can see the engine damper fitted as well as the red braided clutchline.

Arriving after a two month wait from Yahoo Japan was a set of 15" 57C Gramlights.

And some unexpected bodywork also took place...

Crystal N/A headlights were also worthy additions to the JDM cause

A tasteful 6K Hi Lo HID kit has also been added courtesy of mc_chu.

Here is what you get with the kit.

I will be adding some better pics of the ballasts in the engine bay and them in action soon, just a quick taster of the HID lo beams.

There is also a front AE101 twin-pot brake conversion on the way (in my possession), as soon as the calipers are painted and serviced they will be bolted on.

My setup will be a different approach from that of Sicaln altho the same calipers will be used.

Here are some photos of what my kit comprises of, the pads that I'll be using are Endless Super Streets. The rears unfortunately cannot be used.

Im on the look out for the rear brake conversion also, but one step at a time ;)

I also had Ultra Racing fender braces fitted, I've lost my phone lead so pics of them installed will appear when I get a new one.

Arriving soon from the ToyTuning Ultra Racing group buy will be a Room Bar and 4 Point Lower Arm. That will be the suspension quest pretty much over...

These aint my pics but heres what Im expecting.

Here is how Starletto looks today, its like the alloys were on the car all along (dressed with Rays anodized red extended nuts and Rays wheel caps)...

Im very very pleased with them :p

One last major piece of bodywork will be modified so will be updated as soon as it happens. Im running a universal Remus backbox but its too quiet and restrictive so will be returning to Jap Can soon.

With the bodywork almost complete I will be concentrating solely on n/a engine performance in 2008 and have some big plans... that I won't reveal for now :p

Hope you enjoyed my long awaited update, there will be more to come soon. Sorry for the long wait everyone :p

:p That looks awesome! I take it the fenders are mc chu's cruise replica one's? They really suit your car, they make the front look really fat better than the proper cruise one's actually. I really like them! ;) :p

Also the gram lights are a very good choice, they suit the car so much more.

My favourite na by far, excellent work mate. :p
