****WARNING**** STARLET TURBOS ARE TAKING OVER!!!  :D

Not to slag them off but starlet turbo's used to be a rarity, which was cool, i like them, but i now see hundreds of them everywhere.

Affordable Jap turbo power = CHAV BOOM

Saying that, with that particular one you get alot of bang for your buck!!

they are cool, but I think they only really suit a few people, others looks like knobs driving them

A pulsar is the only car that looks fully max chav straight from the dealer. Especially black ones. Absolutely hideous. I mean its a nissan sunny with a bodykit? Why would anyone want that???

Plus the bottom ends are weak as well as the gearboxes.

Theres a guy not far from me trying to sell a Toyota Starlet turbo.
It`s an import so came with the Turbo and its silver.
Me and a mate thought it was Hideous and Yes the guy
does look like Penus who drives it.

They did a 4wd glanza IIRC and you can fit all the bits off the turbo one to it. I would do that because at least it would be good in the snow then.

One of my mates had one and was no end of problems! I think he suffered both these problems, even after throwing several thousand at it.

Very tempted by a starlet turbo tho.

I'd never own a Pulsar but I do see the appeal - it's shit ugly but at least it's got the readies underneath.

Resenting the Max Chav thing a bit btw...
