wouldnt sell the gt anymore,will just keep it.

the white gt its a top mounted oil cooler and a fmic.

was 294bhp/300lbs torque, 1.6bar on td04 hybrid.

had 2 gts and the burg at 1 point,but like u say, a fleet of starlet turbo's would be ace,each with a different turbo set up,lol

the white one is sold to a guy in wales,currently getting a rebuild due to a rod going.

isnt as mint as it looks to be honest, only thing it did was go in a straight line,never enjoyed it from the day i regrettably bought it.

gone now tho,and was the only car i made money off,out of 13 cars ive owned!

still,was good to have a fast gt,this time im guna do it myself,should of done from the start!!

crazy way i had to root the apexi filter due to the size of it and lack of space by the turbo.
