A mates just managed to find a GTti after listening to me bang on about my old one. He cleans windows and found it parked up rotting and managed a to strike up a deal for it. Bit of a state but I've shown him your build as inspiration and with a bit of luck there will be another one saved!

Great progress as always, love the fact I get to see someone doing what I'd always planned!

sweet man handle like a pro

do you mind taking some measurements of them ?? hub slot with and hight from topmount to bottom mounting hole of the hub bolts

Can do! For the starlet? Front golf mk2 coilovers fit with the hole enlarging slightly so i reckon starlet ones could fit. Rears are different to starlet as also have hub mounting holes like the fronts.

Front coilovers on and ride height set. Gotta do some arch work and fit camber bolts on the rear to get some 195 50 tires on

Sensible ride height for track

Standard wheels on rather than sit on axle stands. Low on 14s

Tracking is miles out now so need to get that down and get the coilover socks.

Was meant to do the hill climb at retrorides in this, but leaving things last minute i didn't have time to sort a clutch issue. It really was shit. The clutch is custom with two diaphragms to be able to handle the power i want. No one else has ran this type and it fouled badly on the gbox.

Hopefully get the box back on and all sorted in time for my 15min session at forge action day this weekend.

Picked up a set of 4 direzzas ready to stick on. Should handle and grip amazingly.

Ha ha yep yours are way better- always wanted to get to that event. I need to get myself an older car to have a go up the hill

Have you got anymore pics of the car? Always loved them

Easily the best event of the year in my opinion. So much variety compared to Japfests etc. I'd be very surprised if anyone could go to the show and not see a car they have never seen before.
