As the colder weather draws in, and the car is used less, i decided i would add onto this for those who are interested. This may come in sections but i will try make it as up to date as possible. 

Back in may ‘17

Aircon regas as the summer was becoming hot.

I decided to switch short shifter. The car came with a TRD one but i had previously had a C’s short shifter in my SR rep which i loved.

Here are some comparison photos, Trd is black and the C’s is chrome.

Fairly easy job, upon changing the C’s shifter had a much better throw. It also sat higher and closer.

I attended various shows and meets throughout the summer. Just gunna upload a few from different places.

I then managed to pick up some rubber Toyota mats. I only have a photo of the rears atm. 

Heres a photo of the rears straight after picking them up.

The actuator was tired and the car was struggling to make anything more than .4, i bought a new hks actuator and adjusted it accordingly to make standard boost.

Then in late october, i went with a good friend to Dublin to pick up his new car.(starlet) While there i had arranged to buy a couple of items.

TRD centre console trim.

I then set about restoring it to its former glory.

The car was used vert sparingly over the winter months. Only used if it was dry out during the daytime and to keep the battery charged.

A friend also upgraded his brakes so snapped up his WMS setup and brought them back to life.

Ill keep this update more brief this evening. Between February and april the car was rarely used. 

Heres a few photos,

The paintwork on the car is always something i wanted to address. I had done the bumpers and that was about it up until April.

First up was the bonnet.

The scoop on the car had one broken tab so i used the one of my spare glanza bonnet which is destined for the Reflet.

I picked up some Regamasters for a steal of a price while this was going on so took a trip up north to pick these up. 

Had to fit one to see how it looked.

It then went into etch and 2k primer.

Car was taken out of the oven to cool off and so i could sort the spoiler and surround.

All 4 regas on at this point.

The wheels failed me when i came to pump them up...

An all aluminium valve and cap had all corroded together so i go some mole grips on them to undo the cap ans this was the result,

Both front wheels did this.:fool: Not to worry, ill run down to the local garage to get them to put some rubber valves in.

The hole on the regas are much smaller than regular wheels. This was all new to me as all my other wheels have always used regular valves. Being far more common than i was aware of i managed to buy a set on ebay.

All valves changed to stainless ones and i used plastic caps instead.

Sunroof deflector is real cool, nice to see I really like this man!

It was one of those impulse buys, i was unsure how it would look but a few friends questioned why i had not already bought it. With that i went and picked it up the same afternoon lol.

 It has really grown on me since, it also has a flap in the middle to draw air staright in the sunroof!
