now thats just greedy!!

you are probably correct. was just wondering if such a task had been done before? a b16ab into a starlet would be a good marriage i think ha ha.

Can a b16 ek9/ek4 engine be put into a toyota starlet, or am i not allowed to use the 't' word ha ha. Or another way, put a starlet glanza v engine into a ek4? can this be done. or am i just dreaming. Was thinking it could be a possible project, would be different aswell?

golly gosh, thats me told then aint it. Mods would be done over time, not straight away, i was needing a car to keep up with mates.

what mods' can be done to a 1.4i to boost the hp? can you get them to 120hp?

thanks for the idea's guys. I will keep looking. The benefit of a 1.4 over the 1.5 is the insurance group. At least if i get a Honda, it should live for a long time at least!

sorry for the 'yh'. Its been a while since i have been on here. yes, you do have a point, i have been looking at the figures of a few cars. But a seat arosa is faster than the 1.5. But i do like my honda's!!!

yh i been looking at them, could do with a 1.4 to keep costs down!. Proving hard to find any i like!

I have just sold my ep3. Need another honda though, I haven't swatted up on the older civics yet, but is there such a thing as a 1.4 vti? (ek4) Just need something cheaper to run as i have bought my first house :) What are the faults or big problems i need to look out for when buying one of these?

can you not jack the car up using the beam that the suspension arms attach onto?

how have you come on with your tie bar?

just seen your pictures on the good job you done at detailing your wifes car. just wondered if learning to detail is hard to do? what is needed? cheers.

To pugwall. When you replaced your pads, did you put copper slip on the back of the pads where the piston touches? Also thinking about your knocking. Maybe a possible drive shaft worn and knocking?

sounds good! i fitted a j's strut brace, has got to be the easiest mod i have done to my car! 6 nuts to tighten up and it was on haha.

oh and a niice looking engine bay you have there! very clean and tidy!
