looks nice, but certainly a few things i would want to ask him about...260bhp seems extremely optimistic on that turbo setup at just a bar of boost. plus if im wrong and it is 260, then it seems to be losing a fair bit of power through the transmission aswell.

might just be a funky dyno its been on though mate as said if you got the cash to cover buying a nice forged motor, mapping session and brake kit for it then go ahead it does look really clean and with those parts added would be a complete package.

260hp on stock motor aint gna last unless you drive it round on really low boost 90% of the time and wheres the fun in that lol

Something up with the bhp level 23% loss is to high in my opion, two things the seller worked it out him self and has no clue, or the mapper has no clue. The average loss is about 15% which would make it 260fwhp and 221whp or 230fwhp and 200whp.

Agreed iv driven a few tdo4 power ones with simmilar power and std brakes with good discs and pads work fine

yep most starlets are running round with old calipers that are getting on for 20 years old with out been stripped cleaned and rebuilt. Then people moan their brakes are rubbish.
 
X2 fully recone the calipers with new seals cause there always torn and cause water to get in and seize the caliper
I recone these every day on 95% of cars
