crazy_eyes Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 nearly had the starlet on the road for a year now and im absolutley still loving it, makes me smile EVERY time i drive it, awesome on fuel, i really can not think of another car that can provide so many smiles / £'s. I had all intentions of keeping mine totally standard but now im thinking of moding the engine as i really can see the potential, is there a guide on here as to tuning (what to do first etc). I was gonna sort the bodywork out (full respray etc) but it'll proberlly cost £1000 at the cheapest to mint it so i've figured if i put that £1000 into the engine mods i'll proberly have a pretty quick starlet ?still loving it though a year on :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Glad your enjoying it still i know exactly how you feel There used to be a guide somewhere to a near 200hp setup but havnt seen it in a while. Im sure someone can point you in the right direction though Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Amjad Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 You can easily get 200bhp for £1000 with money left over to upgrade brakes/clutch Quote Link to post Share on other sites

rob_bower Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 The 200bhp guide used to be in the wiki but I don't think it's been added back in yet. Prob best to pm socks he wrote it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
