dai_starletN/A Posted March 31, 2011 Posted March 31, 2011 im having this crazy idea of running bike ITB's on my EP91 N/A starlet someday ;) . it will be alot of work and machining to make it work. i like the idea though.any thoughts.cheers Quote
LukeSR Posted March 31, 2011 Posted March 31, 2011 There is a few that have done this, Chan on her White Glanza Rep had them made up but then sold them ;)Also I believe there was a Paseo that had them on! Quote

Bluebear Posted March 31, 2011 Posted March 31, 2011 Wasn't that on a 5E though, Luke? Although there wouldn't be much diff tbh. Quote

dai_starletN/A Posted March 31, 2011 Author Posted March 31, 2011 well i think its worth having a go as the saying goes " you never know unless you try" i'm going to see what my buddy says (he's a mechanic) plus bike ITB's are alot cheaper and easier to find than car pacific ones. i have a feeling he might like to give it a go.

fattony Posted June 14, 2011 Posted June 14, 2011 I used to run bike carbs on my GTE Nova, made it all up myself, very easy to put togeather, much cheaper than most mods as bike bits are so cheap, sounded the nuts, but was heavy on fuel and obviously required setting up on a rolling road to get fueling right...... mind you went like a fecking rocket afterwards so worth every penny! lolwith regards to bike itb's........ cant comment I'm afraid.... so infact everything I've just said is useless.......... I'll go crawl back under that rock now!!!(side note: Nova's were cool (probably!) when I had one! lol) Quote
ryan lang Posted June 15, 2011 Posted June 15, 2011 a local lad to me on here bought chanelle's itbs, they were never actually working, i think th pp boys couldnt get them to workhes gunna get them done once he can, and he'll mps update on here Quote
LeeroyV Posted June 15, 2011 Posted June 15, 2011 i had zx6 carbs on my old 1.4 polo and they are worth it for the noise alone check out a company called bogg bro's. they made the manifold i used to have and they can (well used to) custom fabricate manifolds etc. Quote
