then this was added, plus many other associated parts.

Which finally evolved into this

Which made good power on a stock td04. which went like so

i then sold up and faffed about it, but with no real interest in playing with anything but another GT i picked this up at the right money and from the right guy.

If it's not your daily, it doesn't count :D

I'm only keeping you going, I would prefer something comfy as a daily.

NOS? You gotta keep that in for a while at least!

Aye ECC are traders for wizards of NOS, so they fitted the kit back when one of their employees owned this GT.

Hence it being forged also.

Tempted to keep the NOS but it would mean it wouldnt be able to be run up a hillclimb and i wouldn't mind a shot at that,

and also ill be entrusting the setup of the car to Chris, that way ill be involved rather than just handing the keys and my back account to a big company and hoping for the best..

bottom line there is a few items i dont fully believe in their worth yet on the road, a) anti lag b)NOS everything else im game.

Would love to try the Cultra hillclimb myself.

Yeah, it's always good to be involved rather than taking the back seat.

cultra hillclimb is certain a 'poster' event, my only issue is i cant see a gt box ever getting on boost in 2nd gear going up it!! a ct9 would destroy a td04 up there.

craigantlet or similar would be a better test for the starlet i thinks.

and definitely being involved is essential, though ive learnt very little compared to what i could have all things considered.
