Awesome cars to work on, so easy to mod and increase power. I had mine up to 200bhp.

Newer front end conversion on that one but not fitted great as not a single panel lines up or bad front end collision in the past.

toyotagtturbo.com is a great site for info, meets and modifications etc etc

Is the GT badge on the boot lighting up green?

I dont no if its lighting up or not man ill keep an eye out for it.
200bhp your starlet must have been a little antichrist to go was it as i think mine is fast and its only running 140-150bhp
 
Great guns man!! Great buy!!

I always say lightness is key, even if it's only pushing 150, if you can get the weight low enough you'll equal an imps power to weight

If I ever have to get a smaller engined car I'd go for a Glanza :)

gratz on new car. i am 100% sure i sow it somewhere.... did you got from someone on dtdirl? :ponder2:

Popsi had glanza, but those are same engines anyway. his was putting out some serious power. My friend has a 320hp++ glanza too. Those little glanza/starlets can be a freaking bullets!

yeah was on dtd alright :icon_grin: Im still really suprised how quick a little 1.3 turbo can be even after a week of owning it
 
my advice anyway dont start modding it ha i had approx 15k in mine and i was no where near finished

there pretty much unbeatable by any car u would meet on the road bar the odd exception of course , at 200 hp ur at sti/evo power its unreal how fast they fill the clock , just dont go round any corners ha ha

get her boosting 1 bar on the ct9 never mind a standalone a e manage will do the job or even a jam ecu and good brakes and leave it lol
 
not a fan of the "nuns " car as i call them, but the performance and power/weight ratio are surely not to be sneezed at .

congrats on new car , well wear !
