Hi all,
I am a new accidental 97 Starlet Glanza owner and a new member here loads of questions any help would be appreciated.
The vehicle I have is a bit of a find and was given to me to repay a debt by my Cousin who was moving premises and had no where to store it.
I have all of the paperwork and import papers and Japanese paperwork but it has never been registered to be driven on the road in the UK. Is this going to be a pain to register?
I am taking it to a specialist tuners next month to get it looked at. I have been told the former owner has said that it was running 285BHP and 11.9 over a 1/4mile (all unconfirmed) To get a car like this looked at possibly remapped and stuff how much should I be paying?
When I mentioned this to a bloke down the pub he said I will need to upgrade the diff because they are dodgy over 200BHP can anyne confirm this. Can anyone recommend where to go to get one if this is the case (I am not surprised if this is not the case as we all know the blokes down the pub are always reliable)?
It also seems to have no rev limiter is this normal any information would be helpful it does have turbo timers etc but god knows if they have been set up correctly or not been fiddled with?
Photos are too big to attach I am afraid.
Thanks in advance for any help.
