The Toffinator Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 Bit of dilemma im in at the mo, want turbo power and can get insured on a GT so was thinking of stripping the N/A and selling it as a standard car to fund towards one. BUT i have spent a hell of a lot of time and money on my N/A, and was thinking of turboing it.Only things that are stopping me is its a hassle to do, and the fact its a 15 year old uk car and isnt the cleanest!! but most of all insurance. i very much doubt i can get insurance on a conversion But it would be hardbroken to get rid of my green beast:/Cant decide what to do lads!!

200bhp starlet Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 as above mate ring for quotes then go from there that way you may be able to keep your beast lewis Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Toffinator Posted July 16, 2011 Author Share Posted July 16, 2011 Yeh dont think the convo will be much of a hassle, im an apprentice mechanic and can get a hand of a proper mechanic, i think the only problem is insurance so will have to check it. And another problem is the arches on mine need doing so theres 200quid, and obviously an old uk n/a isnt the cleanest underneath to be fair... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Amjad Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 Drive a GT and go from there! I know the feeling, I love my NA too much to get rid, but since I drove the GT I knew I didn't want to break that either! lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Billy SR Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 turbo your one, it's a sweet looking n/a! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Steve GT Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 GT but either way its about a turbo whichever you choose you'll be more than happy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TrisK Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 personally id go for a gtbreak the na, back to standard then buy a gtotherwise, you end with a glanza that isnt. plus you have other considerations like brakes etc Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Toffinator Posted July 17, 2011 Author Share Posted July 17, 2011 Thanks again lads, and yeh trisk thats another problem, allthough it has everything in place ready for a conversion at the moment, might just take this back to standardish and flog it on. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
