Kaaaty Posted September 15, 2009 Posted September 15, 2009 I picked up the N/A starlet last night ill get some pics up later.Really pleased with it. 1st and 2nd gear feel clunky when coming down i dont know whether thats me or i have something to sort out, but no drama when goin up though.Very surprised at hittin 60 in 2nd gear it pulls fantastic and sounds great.Has a few mods already completed as to save myself havin to source and build.It needs a tidy up here and there but nothing i cant handle and my brother is pals with dean lol so i will be asking him for plenty of advise lol. the cars white so im goin to go with a luminous green theme ie wheels wing mirrors and detailing. cant wait to start personalisin the car.

DavidAshton Posted September 15, 2009 Posted September 15, 2009 I think you can safely say you have saved this starlet from becoming a proper chav wagon! Quote
CRAIG-SR Posted September 15, 2009 Posted September 15, 2009 what did you pay for it, Last i heard he wanted 2k for it.I was going to have them D2's off it. Quote
Kaaaty Posted September 15, 2009 Author Posted September 15, 2009 lol i paid £1300. a lil much but i liked it. i know it needs work and stuff but its hard to get one that aint had serious damage. or has the different bits on it lol. Quote
Russleh Posted September 15, 2009 Posted September 15, 2009 nice lookin car you got there. not to bad a price for what you got. let the project begin Quote
chanelle1234 Posted September 15, 2009 Posted September 15, 2009 nice looking motor kaaaty, looks pretty mint. I would seriously remove that sunstrip though lol.What are your plans for her then, as your pretty much halfway there maby glanza rep??? chanelle x Quote
Craig_N Posted September 15, 2009 Posted September 15, 2009 Nice Starlet you have there and you seem to have a few plans for it Craig Quote
Starlet__SR Posted September 15, 2009 Posted September 15, 2009 Do not glanza it lol, keep it as it is, tidy it up, enjoy being different lol!Nice car by the way:)Damien Quote
Kaaaty Posted September 15, 2009 Author Posted September 15, 2009 i like that its not tryin to be a glanza it is what it is. That doesnt mean i dont like glanza reps.i like the subtle styling that it has i jus want to go with a luminous green theme and detailing. handles like its on rails and turns heads i love it.just gettin used to how close the gear changes are compared to the sloppy gears on the pug Quote
Starlet__SR Posted September 15, 2009 Posted September 15, 2009 Lol, they're really precise and positive aren't they? Keep it as it is, if you wanna make the changes better, replace the bushes with a bearing kit,Damien Quote
LukeSR Posted September 15, 2009 Posted September 15, 2009 Keep that sun strip and i will love you and this car forever!And did i see 60 in 2nd gear!?!?! Quote
Liam_D Posted September 15, 2009 Posted September 15, 2009 Ive seen that somewhere before dunno where though, was possibly someone elses off this forum. Looks like a tidy motor to me!!! Quote
Kaaaty Posted September 15, 2009 Author Posted September 15, 2009 yes honestly went just over 60 in 2nd gear my bf couldnt believe it lol Quote
Starlet__SR Posted September 15, 2009 Posted September 15, 2009 You'll find the speedo's on starlets do over read:) lolDamien Quote
