Popular Post mae Posted September 13, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted September 13, 2014 Hey! Im Aimee, I'm Shakotoms little sister. About 6 months back i went to a street culture meet with my brother to have a geeze, wandering around the meet i saw a KP Starlet and since then i fell in love. Saw this pop up and went to have a look at it, could see too much wrong with it so a couple of days later came home with it. And yes, this is Berjs' old Starlet.

Popular Post mae Posted September 13, 2014 Author Popular Post Share Posted September 13, 2014 So basically my brother is going to help me maintain it and teach me a bit about these things. After getting the car home we discovered it actually had a fuel leak from the hose between the fuel pump and the carb hardline, so i replaced it with a new bit of hose. the starlet came on the original 12inch steel wheels but the tyres are no good, Shakotom had a set of 13x6 alloys that he had squirreled away for a future project; so he decided to give them to me. they need abit of a clean up but should be good. does anyone know what they are? they're stamped ryobi on the face and my grandad had them on his AE86 back in the early nineties. I just need to get some starlet sized tyres for them. maybe 155/70r13s? 17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mae Posted February 4, 2015 Author Share Posted February 4, 2015 Went for a wof but failed on an exhaust leak and rear break imbalance. So I gave it wash to make her feel a little better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mae Posted February 4, 2015 Author Share Posted February 4, 2015 Finally got the wheels cleaned up that my brother had for temporary use and stole some of his old tyres. I don't really like them but I guess they'll do for now because they were free and my brother is awesome ;P ay Shakotom I did buy a set of two piece 14x6 Heroes Racing Mesh wheels a while back but unfortunately they are the wrong offset and they barely clear the front struts. i really love this style of wheel but am looking for something with better/correct offset. HEEEELP???? the Heroes Racing wheels are up for sale, Am possibly interested in swapping I've inspected the rear breaks for the cause of the imbalance which was a leaking right hand wheel cylinder. I've brought a new wheel cylinder and will replace it when it stops raining. Just going to get the exhaust welded up for now until I can find a replacement 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mae Posted February 22, 2015 Author Share Posted February 22, 2015 Finally got around to replacing the rear wheel cylinder and fixing a few minor things with that Devon was able to pass her warrant. Shakotom managed to sell the Heros Racing wheels around the same time i came across a set of 14" Manaray Turbina. Went and had a geeze, liked them so I came home with them. I'm stoked with how the actually look on the starlet. JUST NEED MORE LOW! so now i'm seriously going to start to have a look into getting this thing lowered and some new tyres for the rims. ^ would be ideal 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
