ok im putting it out there lol - if anyone on here has a 300odd bhp starlet that doesent try to break loose in any way or go straight ahead when you try to boost it hard through a low speed corner please hare your setup lol its a pointless comparison anyways, i was just saying i think a decent civic or something would be faster when theres more bends etc than a big power big lag starlet. on a lighter note i drove an mx5 round a very tight little circuit and it was ace lol

bargain tbf

edited cus i cant be arsed with people that will take my opinion the wrong way lol

lol lets be honest we all love starlets but they handle like shit even with coilovers haha torquesteer is crazy especially with big turbos like td04 or above you certainly cant get on the power out of a corner as quickly as you would like to. i suppose it depends what kind of track you are on. if theres a lot of long straights and high speed sections then a 300bhp starlets gonna be very impressive. but for literally anything else involving technical courses and corners forget a b18 civic or crx, i would even bet on a stock ep3 being quicker to be honest (my 2p). for street use i wo

im going to get shot down here lol but 300bhp in a starlet is too much. wheelspin is pretty useless. for outright speed and acceleration in the real world 250 is the magic number - with a decent diff and suspension in the dry you should really be looking at just about hooking up fully in 2nd gear. my old car had 253bhp on a td04 and ported and polished head. dave burwash god rest his soul said it was the fastest street built starlet he had ever built at the time. i was hitting full boost below 4000rpm and it was fucking awesome. in the dry weather there really wasn't anything short

it aint hard though if u sold someone something and they paid you could at least check the forum once in a while...

i wanted a starlet through and through but after driving an mx5 they have clouded my vision. rwd is damn fun

youll be lucky to get in touch with him on here mate hes online about once every century.

fair enough dude u wna be different fair play to ya. p.s - anyone who struggles to keep a td04 on boost on a 4e cant drive lol

dont forget a td04 can be picked up for peanuts, a gt20 will no doubt be a lot lot more. theres a reason a td04 is so popular lol. my old car with headwork used to light up all 3 boost lights at a smidge over 3000rpm on a td04.

i thought that mate but you can see from the 6th pic the bonnet is defo shut but theres still that gap. im assuming its just a slightly dodgy fitted front bumper to accomodate the FMIC

hey dudes was gna try to arrange a viewing of this tasty looking glanza. but i dont know whether its just me but the bonnet pic from the front it just looks a bit skewiff like the headlights dont properly fit or something. like panel gap that shouldnt normally be there. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=181502558883

yes obviously the mx5 u got a point but the atom? lol ive done these trackdays when the instructors wont let you push the cars anywhere near hard even when its a normal car like an old elise. the point im making is price aside the cars were fast on the circuit. the mx5 was just the practice car. the s2000 was tuned and that would give a lot of cars a good go and obviously the atom which would eat most supercars for lunch.

hey dudes anyone wanting to buy or do a driving experience day thing i would highly recommend 'The Real GranTurismo'. fantastic day driving a mazda mx5, s2000, and ariel atom. the only one ive ever done where they actually encourage you to really push the cars. Nice people and great instructors. also gta say that even a standard Mx5 is a fantastic little track car id never driven one hard before. s2000 was also fabulous car.

i found that when i owned one it drove brill and grip was amazing, all glanza mods like big brakes, coilovers, 4efte, turbos u name it will all fit the ep95. i never got round to turboing mine but id say a good useable 250bhp in one of these would be awesome.

lol @ civvy street that term always makes me laugh. i know someone whos joined the army done her basic training and has been posted in cyprus for two years lol shes going to be doing her training to become a PT and loves it. but then i know a lad who left the army saying the pay was wank, the job was wank, everything was wank. so i guess you gotta think very hard about your overall plan where you want to go and what you want to do. P.S - the lad was in the para's and he cannot get a job in 'civvy street' for love nor money.

yeah thats what the dickheads shout when they behead the captured civilians

i really think silver wheels go well on a silver car, maybe rota track R wheels in silver?

haha i hear ya mate got any suggestions

hey dudes does anyone know this car or the owner? http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/toyota/starlet/1996-toyota-starlet-glanza-v-1-3-turbo-silver-subtle-mods/2662850 im going to view it v.soon. looks clean from the pictures. also if i do buy it the first thing thats gotta go is the wheels lol so what do people think of these for a silver glanza. http://www.directalloys.co.uk/images/LgProd/Wolfrace-Slot-Mag-Silver.jpg

the td04 turbo is just friggin awesome. obviously theres a little bit more lag but once you get used to it and how to drive it without letting it drop off the boost u will never go back. the setup you have now is great for the street ad probably faster in a lot of situations around the streets, but the td04 has far more punch

p.s - i havent had a renewal form reminder thing come in the post at all? which is half the reason i forgot the fucking thing

hey guys my classic mini project has been gathering dust in the garage for a while now and obviously the car is sorned at the moment. well thing is i totally forgot about it and forgot to re-sorn it. well its gone over a few days now and ive tried to do it online and it wont let me, and the post office say they dont do that stuff anymore - how the fuck do i resorn it?!

i prefer rich - i havent been a naughty boy lol.... this complaint is bizzare to say the least.

lol i know our forces man for man are much better. the SAS is planet earths no.1 military unit theres literally noone better. but without the numbers it means nothing im afraid.
