starlet had to keep backing off when behind myself driving an R5GTT. Mid to top end Starlet far superior (even on low boost)

ok might think about getting 1 after the sport, depending on how many ync I can get

I def think the Old style looks better than the glanza thingy!?!

that had nothing to do with the fuel.

i have run mine (and so does every other person in ireland) on 95ron since i got it. unless you are running silly power 95ron is fine, after that it will need a remap.

in that case a standard gsi would never beat a starlet unless it was fucked

finally went out in the beast today (Starlet GT Turbo)

Thought F**k me it's pretty quick and it was only standard! - although tbh its the only small turbo petrol car I've been in..

He is also selling it if anyone is interested... £3k he wants for it

I've wanted a glanza for ages, but the trouble is insuring them, I called up a so called "jap import specialist" insurance company, and they had never heard of a starlet glanza! you can find the Gt on most insurers websites but the glanza is a right pain!
