  1. I'm looking for a EP82, it wants to be fairly standard and straight.



    The car will be transformed into a race car over the winter so state of bodywork, or it requiring the odd bit here and there to get it serviceable don't worry me too much, nor does it having any tax or MOT as it will likely be trailered away.



    Budget is around £2k, I know this wont buy me a mint one, but that's not what I want.



    Let me know what you have, cash is waiting for the right car.


  2. I hope to campaign a Starlet GT in Track Day Trophy next year: http://www.trackdaytrophy.co.uk



    My aim is to have the car in Class C, which calls for a max of 150 whp p/tonne. That figure is race weight, including me, and at 6'4" and around 100kg I aint light. My guess is that I'm going to need pretty close to 150whp, if we assume that a stripped '82 with weld in roll cage, fuel, etc and me is around 1000kg.



    What sort of turbo setup should I look to be running to achieve the 150whp figure with relative ease? It is important that the setup is unstressed, it needs to be reliable, I don't want to be entering races and it not making the grid due to reliability issues.



    Supporting modifications will be added, it's likely to run some form of aftermarket ECU as well.



    Have at it, what do I need?


  3. Hey,

    Nothing wrong with the RX it's great and will be sorely missed. It's used as a weekend toy, but my mileage seems to spiraling so doesn't really see the light of day as much as it should. I run a little VW as a daily, and with fuel atm it makes alot more financial sense to run that, even at the weekend!

    Really looking forward to getting back into a Starlet of some description <_<

  4. Back in 04 i had a EP82 that i kept for around 10 months.

    I've since owned an array of cars and am currently driving a Single Turbo RX7. I've decided to return to Starlet GT ownership in the shape of either a 82 or 91 so i'll be bobbing around here looking for cars to buy and posting progress with the new project.

    Right now i need to sell the RX but not before i return from the nurburgring in a couple of weeks <_<

    Cheers

    Tim
