  1. Other than whatsapp theres not really much i use, youtube , google maps (as the apple maps is complete shite. Calls my town something its not been called in 40years) Then the other things like that are there but never get used are Facebook (i prefer the safari version but have to have it to upload pictures) Instagram Photobucket Itorch4 (a torch lol) Tunein internet radio (they dont have fm radio)
  2. Im very happy with my sony bravia 1080p lcd, great tv, very quick on menus etc even now its 5 years old its never spudded out at all. Parents have a panasonic pre HD but everybody seems to think it is one if i put a console on it. But its 7 years old now and the remote is going funny, the screen is clouding and its forever going blank when flicking through channels... Which is a shame as its a really good tv otherwise But samsung are making some great tv's these days. Id favour towards one of them when mine goes poof!
  3. Thats down under for ya, they're a few years behind on the modding scene (like us and the usa). Give it a few more years n ther'll be getting the stance bug and we'll be calling that chavvy lol
  4. Me and my old man have been looking at getting one of these. If the interests there id likely have one.
  5. Nice little motor mate. Always good to see them out on track! Where abouts you from as snettys only a few miles from me?
  6. Oh dont get me started on VAG's mate of my brothers got a gti-tdi 25-30th anniversary golf (mk4) 150hp 1.9tdi (100% standard bearing in mind) the first mot he had to put it though, cost him £1500 and nearly every one since has been loads. Its had Aircon pump Fuel pump Cam shaft 2 egr valves Turbo Headgasket Split water pipes Intercooler pipes Wheel bearings (wearable parts i know) And goes through front tyres like its running 4000000fwhp :/ He was boasting he spent £2500 on it over xmas for some reason. I can happily say i would have scrapped that car years ago absolute dog of a car!!
  7. I can, and i will
  8. Oh im with you on the newer than 2000 cars, but eg's ek's etc are cheap. Get a 1.3/4 drop a b16 in it that can be picked up for a a few 100 if you know where to look and gut it. 160ish hp and in an stripped eg thats sub 900kgs they're quite a weapon. Obvs like any car you can spend 1000's on the rest if you want to but generally parts are so plentiful they're cheap enough to get 2nd hand parts on a good budget. Much cheaper than starlet 2nd hand parts and even brand new tbf!
  9. Until it breaks, a megane r26 was meant to go to the ring with us but it only just made it to Norwich then the clutch went
  10. Toyota man here aswel but for the shear fact that a honda is as simple to work on as lego makes it the perfect car for people to start with, soo many different people making parts that u can build a budget track car for pennies because of all the replica parts. Engine swaps are near enough bolt in jobs these days. I've seen a K swap be done from driving d series to driving K series be done in 4 days by a lad and 2 mates. Theres no way you can knock honda's imo cheap reliable easy fun. With or without boost. Personally i think every manufacturer should take a page from there book. Youve got a 1.3 civic and you want bigger brakes?? Get prelude twin pot calipers and Mg discs and you've got 282mm twinpots for about £150 and they just bolt straight on. The same with the wiring. Want to change clocks buy some vti clocks they plug in and work Starlets 256 x 18mm discs even to upgrade to corolla 256 x 22mm discs cant be done easily because the calipers dont bolt up! Glanza clocks in an n/a... Need the whole dash loom as its completely different :/ Oh and vvti is nothing like vtec. VvtLi on the other hand is
  11. Come to snetterton ;) its only 8 miles from me and if anybody breaks there car they can leave it at mine if need be I wont pinch any parts honest
  12. I've got one of them in my corolla
  13. Both my cars and both mirrors have spiders, the boot in the starlet has one aswel! I've given up with them they wont shift, little bastards
  14. I know some1 afraid of frogs
  15. Like i said in the other post make it a toyota event, maximise participants.
  16. Are you on here? never seen the car before. Split 6spoke gun metal rims otherwise fairly stock at a quick glance. plate something like P371 ***
  17. both good cars but starlets are rare which instantly makes them cooler
  18. Im not southern im eastern ;)
  19. Altho c4's can handle 400hp on stock internals ;)
  20. Dc2 is the better car than the eg i think you would be disappointed tbh few of my friends have had dc2's ek vti's eg18c4's with stage 2 cams and a remap And the most impressive by far was the dc2 Cant comment on the gt turbo as the only one I've been in wasnt running right!
  21. Im assuming the civic hasnt had the swap declared then as surely tax and insurance would be the same if not more for insurance?
