hello all,
im new on here so i thought id say hi and review myself for u guys
) sorry if its a bit long,
3 years ago i started out a car nut but unsure of were to go i nearly ended up with an ae86 (shame i didnt) but looked about and ended up with an civic ek3 (ek9 lookalike) in losing my job and travling on tour (inline skater) i couldnt afford inusrance on it.
ended up with a 106 quicksilver (witch i still have, given to my girlfriend) drove that for years and wanted somthing faster went and looked at the g40 for ages but non in a good condition. stumbled on my first real love the mazda 323 gtr witch is still an on going project (pics will be below).

i got my hands on a micra super s witch is a fun lil car but its not that economical dew to being ecc managment(electronicly conttroled carb's) i share this car with my grand perants now, and i did have a honda civic ej2 coupe.

witch im rebuilding again as i have a new air bench to work on.
now this is were it gets intresting im 21 and i want to sell everythink up inc car parts i have laying around. gtr is going to be a full on track car with odd meet use. and i bin looking around for somthing rare i looked about and nothing jap really tickles my fancey maybe the toyota yaris. im walking home from collage and i see this in recaros tuning bay i think to mayself i forgot about them there supercharged arent they get home and do the search and here i am
noticed people are getting 50 mpg with the supercharger on a relay there rare and fast and eco what else would i want.
now im just searching for a cheapish one to pick up and have some fun in start modifying for efficancy and handling. i will be fully looking next year the price's do seem quite high atm and not many local to brighton.
i got a few questions about the car.

whats the handling liek on standerd
what are the best places to get parts and performance parts from for these cars ??
there probally be more but i wont go to far
thanks adz
