Not trying to swing you off the idea of a hybrid.and.it depends what you want from thwarting car. also I've.never.driven a hybrid turbod car. but i went for td04 months ago and its brilliant. got a full kit for about grand and Im just running it at .6 bar off the wastegate spring till i can afford to map the emb i have. If.going hybrid though i would defo change the mani for a more free.flowing.one
-
I think for.best results and more stable boost you'd be.better off with a new mani and external wastegate. unsure of sard ecus but.it would.need mapping to suit the new.turbo ideally.

My car seems to be eating cv.joints. its had 2 left ones in the last 2 months and.now the drivers side is.shot. i don't.use.it very often any more but when i.do it gets.driven fairly.hard. The car is really low which makes the shafts sit at an angle they weren't exactly designed for. however Im not running stupid power. its on td04 at .6 bar. am i.better off to just get 4 brand new.cv joints (inner and outer) or get 2 new shafts? Cars Not my daily so it can be.off the road for a week or so while i sort it
-
I had to when my laptop.got.hacked. i couldn't.get on ebay paypal or my email account. i got hold of paypal as money had gone.and.they sorted it within the hour.

Whitegv replied to Matt1878's topic in Intake, Turbo & Exhaust
Depends if you know the tester or they can be swayed with a.nice £20 note lol. at the end.of the day the test is only good at the time its taken. who's to say you didn't get home and.change it back to decat straight away -

I come out with.about 1700 a month.but that's working a lot of hours really. tbh after bills i don't have an enormous amount left. specially with trying to get out of my.massive over draft thanks to 4 months unemployed -
Newark / grantham has loads for the area they cover. there's 3 5series estates 2octavia vrs a silver a3 and 2scoobs that like to push you until they can pull you. Can tell them a mile off though. i look for the cage thing that goes across the boot in the estate cars. the lights in windows and the big gadget thing that rests on the dash.board. and the plates are all registered in the area so there all the same
-
got the cage back today i chose a metallic candy lacquer blue and its come out a treat. its pretty much the same colour as my mates astra gsi. (arden blue) which Im sure is as close to cusco blue as a overcoat can get. looks the business ill post pics when i get to a pc

Hi guys. Just wondering the best place to get eye bolts for harnesses and what thread i need for the starlet? Thanks in advance Matt
-
Looks smart mate however Im just not a fan of that shape type r. just for the fact that there's so many of them :/ if up to me and i was going for a Honda it would have to be a dc5 or dc 2 depending on money its a nice looking type r though
-
I did my exhaust last week with the car on axell stands. Took about half.hour on my own. There's only 3 bolts at the front and a couple on the back box. simples
-
I hoped it would.be a bit thicker tbh. tubing looks a bit.pathetic lol.
-
Surely with having a cage fitted a bar could be fitted across the back section of.it horizontally?
-
Dog shit why not
-
Just order some takatas does anywhere on here like zisco make harness.bars?
-
Been up to the plastic coaters today. Found a blue that's almost cusco but a bit dark maybe. its metallic candy blue. Im going for that so ill post pics of it when.done
-
I did want.cusco blue tbh but i cant find anywhere that anodises them. and can't.find a cusco blue powder coat.
-
Just got a cusco safety 21 rear cage. It needs a new coating.either way so Im.getting it.powder coated. I want.something that.stands out and have decided between fluorescent pink (because its different) and a candy purple. just not.sure which to have. the rear is completely stripped and.sprayed white. i have evo 7 recaros which have blue.centres, however i may sell these and get some buckets. whats.your opinion on cage.colour or have any.suggestions?
-
My starlet sticks with my mates one all day. i do have an lsd and all my suspension has been set for the car to be fair. Obviously for a standard car the dc2 would wipe the floor with a gt or glanza. But i think you can have just as much fun in a starlet providing.its set right and has the right goodys on it
-
Looks lovely mate. my mates just bought one but it doesn't look half as clean as yours. Beautiful car
