  1. really starting to love my gt turbo, ive have a few higher power cars before and always love the idea of 300 horses in my pocket rocket, im just after some advice on what parts to start collecting towards the build, im after a reliable build thats not pushing its limits, by no means will this car be trashed around everyday, id just like to have that power for the odd hit of boost and the occasional easy going track day,



    not sure weather i should ask in this section or another, but what other parts would be worth collecting (ecu,turbo, manifold, intake manifold ect.) ill be piecing it together over this year and hopefully get the build done next winter



    hopefully ive explained myself well enough, all help would be great!



    thanks

  2. hi there guys


    my names jon


    ive been a part of the forum for a few months now so its about time i started this



    my story starts with my old love for hondas



    i originaly owned a dc2, being 20 and owning a dc2 is awsome but i really fancied a change so i went ahead and got myself a civic jordan


    heres one from a local jdmc meet

    then that was sadly crashed into while i was at traffic lights, to say i was gutted is a major understatement! but oh well i then moved onto a ep3

    this was a fun and very fast car but i soon got bored so my search for something different started


    i searched for weeks and came across drew 007's lovely little gt turbo


    straight away after seeing the pics and talking to him via txt i knew i wanted it, and so eventually i got a viewing, his garage set up is amazing the car was clean, drove exactly how i wanted it so we made a deal,



    a few months later after starting to really love the car i was going down the motor way and a horrible ticking noise came and as you can guess the engine went, this really set me back, but i managed to source a new engine with 40k miles on it out of a 98 glanza and my dads friend helped me do the swap, i cant thank my parents enough for making me want to keep this car and not give up with it, by the way i pay for my cars myself not one of these little rich boys,



    but anyway here she is
