Thanks alot Rob for your more detailed reply on upgrading my OEM parts ;) some of the things on that list i have FMIC for example. I was considering the stainless japspeed manifold or the one for sale on here by killamats, trouble i have on choosing is one is a small tubular manifold the other is measured length headers. Basically going to change the manifold and center section in one go ASAP when i have bought the manifold so garage knows the work involved. Enzo that would be great on the help front, so new to these cars i don't want to break it by doing something silly lol Pepper

Thanks alot Enzo, I'll fill in my fields when i have finished going through all the new posts etc. for today. Last night i looked into this forums with more detail and found ToyTuning... MMMMM some nice goodies there to be had i bought this car thinking it wouldn need too much ... i was so wrong lol I'm pretty skint so working loads of overtime in work just now get my bank balance back up then £1000 will be spent on my starlet so i can be happy lol Thanks all for replies

Sorry for not really looking about etc just going from a micra forum to this is huge way more going on n way more posts etc ... thanks for the help guys Pepper

Hi there I have no clue what to say so ill start here... On monday of last week i went to view a Starlet GT Turbo and thought it was a good little car to start my tuning/modding, and by Wednesday i had bought the car lol I caught the Turbo bug from a Micra.... yes a Micra, it was a bodge job i bought for £600 and sold for £800 2 months later I have loads of questions i dont know where to start. I realise this may not be the best place to ask (i.e. section) but if i have my questions in one place it would be better I think for getting the answers. 1) I have a Tom's ECU on the car and wondering what benefits this would have over the standard ECU, performance wise? 2) Is there a good website for buying parts, both standard and after market performance pieces, i am looking for a Blitz Nur-spec centre section as the exhaust has blown? 3) What brakes can i fit to the car to uprate them or even buy new standard discs and pads for all round? 4) My Manifold has a crack on the casting on port 3 i think, will this cause me any major problems? I have plans of buying a stainless manifold at some point but is it necessary i do it sooner rather than later? 5) I believe i have a Hi. boost and Lo. boost controller i was planning on running 0.6 Bar and 1 Bar respectively, do i need any uprated parts over OEM to run the 1 Bar? 6) Any other website i should bookmark for info, parts or jus a good read on the starlet? Thanks for your time on answering these questions etc, i have had the car 5 days now so I'd like to learn more about it. Spec list and pictures to follow when i get them P.S. I wont hear a bad thing against a Micra, i have owned 5 and all where good lil cars in there own way
