Pretty clean apart from the 10 buck paint job... Any plans to do her up paint wise in the future?

Friends call me Ashgan or Ash... But you can call me failchanic. If there's a routine maintenance job that exists on a starion, then chances are i've failed at it.

First attempt fails include:
-Changing indicator light
-Changing spark plugs
-Changing belts
-Changing airfilter
-Changing oil
-Removing rear strut
-Replacing front strut

Four cans of Export gloss black enamel :) yeah not much traction with the little tires but certainly fun, chose carby because i was having troubles with the stock injectors, i work at a carby shop so ive got all the gear to tune it which makes life easy :) ive finally got some spray gear now so im gonna give it a proper job. Same colors but with some flake perhaps :)
Cheers for the posts guys! :)

Better go easy on the NOS, might blow the welds on the intake manifold... when you top out at 140mph, those riveted floor pans are likely to fall out. We've all seen it happen!!

Very interested in how that carb setup goes, considering that setup for my sigma dirt tracker. (cheap and allows me to use all my left over bits)
How are you running from turbo to carb?
I was thinking of modding an old type gas hat to fit.
Is there anything that needs to be done to the carb to make it work?
If at first you don't succeed, maybe skydiving just wasn't your sport!

I had those rims at one stage on my JA doing sprints at Lakeside in the late 80's. Had a set of Yokohama A008R's in a 195 series tyre. Broke Phil Brocks group E lap record by half a second and earned my self the opportunity to have a test in the factory Group A starions. My JA was the original Ralliart Bartlett car so was well sorted. Those rims bring back great memories, they certainly suit but need to be another 2" wider.
