turbo balls Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 Hey peopleI'm James from sw london, I have just brought a 1990 starlet gt turbo of my mates brother.I have been driving a vw polo 16v for the past 2 years and this is a good step up only problem is I know alot about polos and vw's But now need to learn about turbos and toyota's, that's no problem tho all part of the fun.I got loads of plans for it as I won't be driving it till august when I can get insurance .I will post pic's up soon, got a boost gauge on the way already.I know what people mean now about turbo smiles ) it's awsome and the noise is addictive Quote Link to post Share on other sites

turbo balls Posted June 13, 2010 Author Share Posted June 13, 2010 Ha yeh I know it's like that on most forum's.It's dark grey it did have loads of mods but most of the good parts were taken off and put on the guys newer starlet, it's got a screamer pipe, full exhuast, air filter and lowering springs, it's mint and I got it for a good price, only needs new engine mounts but that is not a big job .I'm gunna get used to the power before I start with major engine work.The guy I got it off had one up to 300 hp, he used to be on here when he had it.
