I dont post many pics on here, mainly cause ive not done much with the car since i got it due to lack of funds with booking a holday etc but heres a few after a was down with Autoglym. The marks on the rear bumper have now been sanded, re-sprayed and waxed.

So the previous owner had a aftermarket ECU in the car (Blitz I think?) and took that out when selling the car. Replaced it with the standard ECU. Turbo seems a little laggy. Is there a way of like re-setting the standard ECU again or what can i do to solve the issue? Its still boosting fine at .6 it just seems to be a little laggy.

So most of my savings have just been splashed on a holiday this year but as of now im looking at spending a little on my V. Not too sure where to go with it if im honest, I want to keep it reliable, However wouldnt mind that extra bit of power. ( Ill up some more pics soon) Im running a standard 97 V. Only slight mods are: Lowered on Tein Springs Boost Gauge Turbo Timer HKS SSQV 3 BOV Blitz Nur Spec Cat Back Exhaust Bit of advice guys? Still learning my way around these awesome cars! P.s Running a standard set up, whats a safe boost to run at?
-
So, as above guys.. im new to the starlet scene (well any scene to be fair)..and just thought it would be good to meet a few of the local guys around and get to know the car abit more? Just see whos interested and then we can arrange a date and time etc? A few of the guys have mentioned Bonds of Elswick for the meet, sounds a good shout to me plus they do awesome ice cream ha!. What you guys think?
