  1. hello guys

    my brother is thinking of selling his 18" lenso rs5's. They are gunmetal with a red lip, 2 of the alloys are curbed round the lip but not that noticeable. they came of his Mitsubishi fto and are multi fit 5x100 and 5x114.3.

  2. hey guys

    i received a quote earlier from someone my bf knows to wrap a few parts from my car. i wanted my trd sideskirts, euro rear lip, trd spoiler blade, rear numberplate surround and lip on my trd front bumper wrapped in black gloss vinyl. now i dont really know much about time and effort which goes into this but he quoted my £430 (inc VAT) to do these bits. does this sound expensive or is it just me as i was expecting around the £200-£250 mark. considering he quoted my bf's car which is a subaru impreza to be fully wrapped for £800.

  3. I didn't know that one was yours Chanelle, i signed up over on ExtremeEP (UKStarletclub) when i was having issues with my ex's EP91

    I saw a air bit of your lovely white one, and it does look stunning, i'm expecting good things for your Celica then biggrin.gif

    yeah my username is chanelle1234, i have a build thread on there somewhere. i was well known on that forum, well i still am. I do miss my starlet dont get me wrong but the celica has so much more to offer. i like my cars to has stunning visual looks as you can probably tell so will get my celica to look stunning too.

  4. i have never owned a glanza/gt but have owned a na starlet. all i can say is that there not as comfortable compared to a celica and bits are a lot more expensive. On the plus side glanza/gt are very quick cars. my bf had a glanza (150,000km)he needed a new clutch whilst owning it, decided to go for a exedy clutch with a lightened cusco flywheel, cost him £800 alone without getting it fitted. i know he replaced the crank shaft oil seals too. my mate had a 400bhp gt (5efte)was crazy quick but was consistantly spending money on it. If you have the money i would recommend one though, there fun nippy cars. if you decide to join any of the starlet forums join up with uksc rather than tgtt.

    if you are considering buying one, watch out for the crankshaft oil seals, low conpression smoky engines, valve stem oil seals. If someone has fitted a fcd without a fpr engine will run lean. 1bar + on standard internals and turbo is a risk. cracked heads due to unsuported mani/turbo/downpipe. if there is accesive oil vapour round the dumpvalve the turbo seals may be on there way out. hope this info helps hun. if you see one your unsure of post up a link and i will get my bf to give a verdict :)
