  1. One thing bout gran turismo I don't like... All the cars sound similar/ the same! I never really knew the reason for the red numbers on the dash either (something to do with the next gear shift I think?) plus the glanza in that video must have been a glanza s cus there was no turbo guage!?! There normally is on the turbo cars isn't there?!?

    the red number is the redline for the gear that you are in like 4th's redline would flash 4 till you change to 5 .

    anyone intrested in a in a best lap challange, winner pics the next car/course??

  2. coil packs

    plugs

    boost leak

    drop resistor

    afm dirty

    fuel pump

    All the things i checked when i had a mis-fire, turned out it was the pump :harhar:

    so far i have tryed the coil packs and gave the afm a good clean, how can i check the drop resistor and were would i find it, can see a wally pump in the pipeline

  3. 4 pot turbo you cant beat it unless its a triple rotary....... but not as a daily :)

    sparky go for it you wont regret it most fun car i have had.

    so while im here i will add the wee update, isnt anything massive just little bits due to going to magaluf in 2 weeks :(:D

    i noticed that when i got it the lights were up so on the way back up i put them down, as i got further home it was getting dark went to put them on and the n/s one got stuck so had to stop and give it a dunt, hey presto . checked it out the next day and the light cover was getting stuck on the bonnet so i moved the cover and moved the rubber bonnet stop up and that was it fixed.

    so when i got it it had a few yad stickers on it such as spank it on the rear bumper,so they have gone with some help from gemz and so has the sunstrip as i couldnt see past it being lanky and all

    going to invest in some stage 1 mods after my holiday.

    then just practice my slide action :rolleyes:

  5. Wow guys, impressive, I can see you lot are going to be keeping us busy ;) also, we're not opposed tp doing duo features or even a group feature sometimes, infact we're doing something similar for 3 big powered Supras located down South for the 2nd issue!

    Keep em coming both here, and via our feature request on our website www.toyotaperformancemagazine.com

    i should be working for your magazine :):)

    just kidding

  6. give it a bash

    217 horses :)

    i know its not my place but i think that 2starlets as a main feature would be a great idea, show the diffrent ways that they can go, comparative mods styling but with different twists etc
