Carl.

no havent driven one, just not a car that interests me really, lots of cars drive nice and have good engines, but i go for the more sporty exciting cars rather than business men / company directors types of cars etc

ohh and audi s3.. nice car, after all its a audi and they speak for themselves, but its one boring car tbh

plus im endlessly ripped for owning a 'old' car pisses me off

lol yeh dave, i feel like i have to apologise for the interior of my car to people all the time. and last comment; my starlets been nothing but reliable for me so i havent experienced that side of them yet lol

Thanks guys. feeling it now.. thought you were gonna shoot me down lol gnna see if i can free up some funds and most probably a finance deal lol

as each day passes im getting massive urges for a nice new car.....even though i desperatly dont wanna get rid of the starbo something thats really taking my fancy is the corsa vxr, although i wasnt keen on the new shape corsa when it first came out they've grown on me and i now think the vxr is absolutely stunning from most angles. So what you guys reckon? heard owt about them tuning wise etc? the standard car is much the same speed wise as my V at present as i had no problem keeping with one round some bendys a couple of week back.. - well at least i think it was standard (and it was th

i had a play with a ferrari last weekend, needless to say i couldnt pull away lol and just now actually, i had a bit of a run with a porche and recorded it with iphone in my phone holder thinking it was gonna be a good race lol he didnt seem to want to play after he failed to get past me first time though which wo dissapointing.

Lmao. Jk. I just use iPhone ones, pretty good. Probs get some off eBay or from apple

http://www.toyota-starlet.info/specs/1992_...specs_soleil_l/ on this site it says its a 4 speed ep82 1331cc wonder if it has 4efe EDIT: has 4efe or 4e-f, both ep82 & ep85 listed for soleil L NP80 is just Soleil

@sparky, Was with the gf lol. dunno if she knew what mine was but she did keep looking in her rear view mirror, but hey.. im a good looking guy haha @phil, I thought that about the sticker at the time but couldnt quite see what it said on it.. in end i just assumed it was a irish sticker because by then i noticed irish plate. also had what looked like original exhaust and it had a side strip like the above pic^^^ it said Soleil L (The 'L' was red) and i think it had those wheels ^^ but they where white.

Tighten the adjustable actuator sounds like it's slack on the wastegate if it's lagging

correct blonde bird driving lol

spotted this on the weekend so took a pic. never seen one before, both on road or in pics. Is this the non turbo version of the starlet gt? did they sell them in the uk? as you might be able to see its on a irish plate! in south yorkshire, england could easily research it but havent bothered doing a search on tinterweb at all, i thought i might aswell post pic up and let you lot explain lol

Set my ct9 at 1.2 yesterday. Took it for a raz for about 3 hours with mates who all have decently quick cars, Clio sport, 1.8 corsa Sri etc so was really giving it some and had to be on and off throttle because it was wet n was spinning like a bitch. But whoahh the engine seems to thrive off 1.2 bar, much more pull than 1 bar, through a rx7 top mount aswell!! I always felt like once my car got to peak boost at 0.8 & 1 bar, in the only way I can think to describe it, was just flat power and didn't pull as hard as it should... Even though it was.. Just didn't sound right for some reason.

more plain stupidity than owt

ive got these ^^

had something similar with my last car started off as engine light poping on after a couple of miles, then started doing daft things like that ^^ i just cleaned throttle body and then it was good as new.

No turbos gotta come out to allow you to pull mani away from head, so it's easier to take them both out as one, along with radiator, cat/decat & intercooler pipe. pain in ass imo especially when you've done it time and time again like me lol.

no silly lol

as above turbo will be fine. just think of extremely small amount of gas that will be able to flow through those tiny cracks when compared to the wastegate opening. its a very small amount of loss.

Anti roll bar?

mint that idrees, keep it up!! p.s. look at paint all over floor and everywhere lol !! hope it all cleaned up ok for your mates dad haha.

lol !! note to self... next time i decide to go camping, make sure i buy a tent with a big enough opening to park the glanza inside.

Monkey metal shit.
