What are peoples opinion on buying from a trader? last time i bought from a trader it turned out he bought a bmw with a Headgasket failure and chucked some jollop in there and sold it to me at full price....I phoned a trader selling a starlet today and he didnt know much about the car, apart from he said " we put a new TD04 on it, its been reconditioned and you can see that, he said the boost hasnt been setup cause its literally just been installed, and that i need to get that sorted, i dont really know what he means by that

atleast 40k...... split the bits and return it to standard, or just check autotrader for prices?

i had my restricted starlet to 118mph or 114mph can't remeber in 4th gear changed into 5th and the limiter kicked in it was 170bhp and was still pulling very strong

haha i wouldnt want it to go sideways ...

I'd love a glanza, but i'm pretty sure i dont have the money for yours

What mods does the starlet need in order to outhandle an E46?

Don't remind me haha, i do love it though but i miss the starlet too much... think its gotta be done lol

haha it is it's the 318 e46 8v... 118bhp haha what have i done gettting rid of my poor starlet, i dont think i'll find one like it again... 170bhp pretty mint for a 20 year old car

What cars have you owned? my opinion on the bmw is, looks nice, newer, and handles good, everything else is in favor of the starlet

Matt, would there be any chance we could get some onboard footage or maybe even a speedo run vid ? 0-60 or just general hooning ?

I am very tempted, what do you think is a reasonable price for a td04 gt / glanza? and also how do they handle with suspension mods - cause my old gt turbo with no suspension or handling mods handled pretty bad, and thats one thing i do love about my bmw..

I sold my 170bhp gt turbo about 2 months ago, and i'm really missing it now and considering buying one again, I bought a 120bhp heavy fat bmw, its comfy warm, luxuary, and goes round corners... ive heard a couple of people have bought starlets again after selling theirs, Should i do it or not!!

So I wouldn't b able to adjust the boost, but apart from that would it drive and boost normally? Cheers!

Just wondering if i removed my to sell it , how would the car run etc? Cheers!

I read the other that a ct9 starlet can hit full boost at 2800rpm, I'm just wondering how you test it cause I can't imagine I'm hitting 1bar at 2800. Do you just floor it in 1st or is there a certain way to test it. Thanks!

I'd just do a couple of mods, but doubt I will be able To get insurance on one

I have all then mods apart from the Manifold, I also have a FCD and FPR although not sure if it's a rising one. I assume the engine is healthy, not had any problems In the 6 months of owning it, and it sounds healthy. Tempted to save up for a Pulsar though

Ok cheers, what should I do if I want to run 1bar? Cause I'm on standard ecu

Umm its set to 0.8 and goes up to 0.9 maximum, not many of mods, it was RR a few weeks ago at 167bhp Just FMIC, exhaust system, actuator set to 0.8 Dump valve etc

i dont really know if im honest, it's just a standard turbo and wastegate i think

What should i have it set at? the previous owner said keep it around 40-45% and then turn it up to 80% on rare occasions
