andyevo Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 Hi everybody, my names Andrew and i'm from Auckland New Zealand.I've been lurking around these forums for a little while now, and i'm impressed with what you guys are doing to your Starlets. I rarely see any well modified Starlet's over here, most people are into drift cars or Evo's and STI's.I have recently purchased a 1997 Glanza V. I wanted a cheap fun little car that i could learn to modify myself, use as a daily driver and eventually take to the track once and a while. I'll create a build thread soon, but as I have a wife and a mortgage, progress will probably be slow.Thanks for taking the time out to read this. Quote

Amjad Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 Welcome! One of my housemates is out in NZ at the moment and he tells me there's loads of Starlets there Quote
Chris Green Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 Welcome to UKSO! I'm quite surpirsed, I though the Starlet scene was big in NA & AU? Quote
garreth27 Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 Welcome.Starlet scene at one point was quite good in NZ but over the years with everyone in the country going drift crazy its dropped drastically lol. Still a few enthusiasts around but not many go too crazy. If you do go down to Pukekohe raceway on their open days watch out for the black ep82 with the plate EP828U, that's 1 of 2 ep82's in NZ that have ever run into the 11's on the 1/4 mile. I'm now living in Aus, scene is a lot better but only on the eastern side, Western Australia is just full of Holdens and Fords haha. Check out www.starletcentral.co.nz if you havent already. Quote
