  1. god i wish we all lived closer... i wouldnt mind sorting out a meet near me, but theres only like 3-4 starlets i know of
  2. ok this is just a handful of the cars i can remember. this is all against the n/a pug 106 1.1 Acceleration - Worse Speed - Worse Handling - seemed pretty good Comfort - worse Noise - Worse Visibility - worse Fun - Worse astra 1.4 1998 Acceleration - Worse Speed - Worse Handling - was ok... it was heavy so it stuck to the road like glue. Comfort - Better Noise - quiter... not better... Visibility - worse Fun - Worse corsa b 1.2 8v Acceleration - nope... none at all Speed - are you joking? Handling - rubbish Comfort - Better Noise - Worse Visibility - rubbish Fun - Worse corsa c 1.7 sr
  3. to be honest i used to just wait till summer and sponge them down with fabric cleaner and water in a bucket. you need a good day for it to dry out though.

    that sounds like a plan buddy ;)
  5. everything should be the same, bar the fact that the pipework is slightly larger, so you'll have to adapt it to fit.
  6. dont get 16's. theyre too big and heavy for a starlet, i had 16's on my old one, and it made a big hit to the performance. alsotyres for 16's are mega expensive compared to even 18's!
  7. cheers mate... yeah, around 4 years of hard work... but if im honest it went thru soo many changes as my taste changed, but damn i did love that car. im glad it lives on though! i might find all my old pics of it and put them up.
  8. laser do a backbox too theyres a thread on it in the part numbers section.
  9. apart from the earthed out hotwires, i think theyre called, that give a huge increase in spark! whether or not that extra spark does alot is the real question though.
  10. mine and geo's old n/a's at the banzai thrash supposed to be -40mm probably about 60mm though once they settled
  11. errr, i heard 30 mins ;)
  12. yeah, i know the stopwatch is not a great way of timing, but i tend to let the clutch slip a bit while creeping before setting off on a proper run, so any other device would time me from when i start creeping. not yet had it dynoed, i want to as i suspect that it is running a little under the benchmark power figure. what did you do to get it running well again?
  13. on a stopwatch, im on 195/50/15 pirelli p6000's and i've tried going right thu 2nd, and using 3rd.
  14. ok, i retract my previous comment, i just thought it was being a bit harsh, thats all. doesnt look like it. if im honest i cant seem to get a better 0-60 than around the 8 second mark on standard boost.
  15. bit harsh really. so now a sr owner is less of a starlet owner because they dont own a turbo model?
  16. sorry mate, but i just gotta ask... we're a 'shitty forum'? is that because your not a regular user of the site? ie "you only use the best?" or is that because we dont all have the same opinions? hmmm, that sounds like a shite forum.... everyone having different veiws!
  17. a sub and amp will still make your lights dim.
  18. lucky sod! i'd love a set of evo recaros...was tempted by simons ones a while back.
  19. she looks soo ace buddy! glad your happy with the mani, nice to hear from you too buddy.
  20. i keep haing a big problem with my leccy windows taking ages to go down... quite tempted to try one of these kits as ive added 3 more eathing straps to my battery to the chassis and its still dimming lights when i flick on the washers etc.
  21. cheers guys!!! phil, you know your the only one for me! ;) im not at home so i dont have alot of time on here!! but thanks you guys!! i'll be along soon to tell you how it goes as im not really doing much at the mo!
