NewbieLewby Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 (edited) So as a few of you know my silver NA had an encounter with a lamppost and is now off the road. i was upset but have taken it as an opportunity, as i have a bit of money i was saving for a new car (coughmxcough5). my plan is to build the NA i wanted to build when i first got one. this will unfold in the coming weeks but for now, i present project blueberry: so called because its full of seeds : its 1997 solida. very clean bodywork and paint but it needs a clutch. hopefully doing this on saturday. spent today cleaning up the seeds and human slime and fitting my gt seats.

Phil. cheers phil. and thanks for saving me looking up the colour code I agree... Can't wait to see the future for this car if all goes to plan you wont be waiting too long Do love that colour dude it is lovely. paints in good nick too love the colour, similar to what I'm doing mine in. are you leaving the standard bumpers or going glanza? its a nice deep blue, way more interesting to look at than the blueish silver. i'll be leaving it na. glanza reps aren't really my thing. and they won't suit what i want to do to it. ----------------------------- also, new clutch arrived today so hopefully that'll be done over the weekend Edited November 11, 2015 by NewbieLewby Quote Link to post Share on other sites

*Pete* Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 The exact reason why I got another starlet. Nice to see this come along Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NewbieLewby Posted November 16, 2015 Author Share Posted November 16, 2015 The exact reason why I got another starlet. Nice to see this come along New ones much nicer as well.Feels so much better to drive a car with working suspension! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
*Pete* Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 Get some new shocks and lowering springs or coilovers but a decent set, got springs and shocks on mine but want coilovers if i can find some decent ones Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Westley Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 I'm in the same boat I have some tein springs on mine, it has dropped a fair bit, but I'm wanting coilovers too, the springs are just a temp thing as the car looked like a monster truck on stock! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NewbieLewby Posted November 18, 2015 Author Share Posted November 18, 2015 got kyb supers to go the front and decent condition stock rears and my apex springs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NewbieLewby Posted November 19, 2015 Author Share Posted November 19, 2015 so a while ago a couple of my friends go "build a starlet with wide 13s like this!" and then proceed to show me a picture of spoonsie lads old na with 13 inch superlights on it. i thought yeah why not, i always wanted to but i never had enough money for the wheels. then this happened: these are compomotive cx's. they need a good polish and to paint the centres. specs are 13x7 et-6! so some arch rolling will be required! test fitted one and it had about 15mm of poke Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jimmymac101 Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 (edited) Coilovers and an arch roller required! Haha could always go for some JDM no fucks given points and bolt on some wider arches lol James Edited November 19, 2015 by jimmymac101 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dan106 Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 You will have to be so low to not have arch gap on 13s by the way!Love the colour and it will look sick on the deck! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
