if ya could get your car swapped for a standard starlet and some cash ya could make the car high powered yourself best way too do it.

200 hp would require seerious money though.plus im a total brand whore:haha:

Lol some comments on here are funny.

My old Glanza, which made 200bhp would easily have EP3's and EK9's in a straight line. Proven many-a-time at Knockhill. The twisty bits weren't so plain sailing. The EP3 was evenly matched with my Glanza but the EK9 could brake later and carry far more speed through the corners than my Glanza.

Personally mate, I'd just turbo the EK9

200hp doesn't take much too get too in a starlet, its after that it starts getting expensive. but a turbo in the civic would be nice.

mate, a standard one will deal with a standard type R, well just about lol

ive had blast with a ek9, mine is standard well filter, dump v/v, 16's, and a full kakimoto exhaust system, but still runnin 0.7 bar, and there was nothing in it, he was 1 passenger up, but we wer even stevens, 3 blasts. and i stayed infront, and the same with him.

captain starlet will know the ek9 im on about, and im sure hes had a play with it aswell.

i dont know mate, only thing he said was summit about how it had only been running 5 mins, and hadnt been warmed up, so summit to do with the vtec not working properly, i just assumed he was making excuses, i dont know what power mine is runnin, i havent had a blast with anything else really, so cant compare, but at 0.7 and still on the top mount, it wont be that much power.

its exactly misinformation like this that causes arguments in these threads about hondas and toyotas. Your information has changed drastically between all three posts above.

Starts with a stock Glanza will keep up with a type R civic just about and ends up that the civic wasnt able to hit vtec... if thats true you should probably have said it in the first post rather than have the lad thinking a stock Glanza is as fast as a stock type R when everyone knows thats rubbish.

never did i mention a glanza.

i dont know about vtec, and too me, the car not being warm enough to get vtec??? i assumed its not a turbo, so why need to warm right up, 5mins i thought would be enough, for n/a car to get to operating temps. so didnt make sense, some1 who knows more about honda's and "vtec" could confirm if that is true or not.

whats the weight and power of a ek9, i would imagine there aint much difference in the power to weight of each car, altho i dont know, so sum1 can prove me wrong there, i couldnt find it in the table on uksc

 

[turbojim]

yea man vtec doesnt work until the car is up to running temp for safety reasons for the engine that is but i think 5mins should be enough to heat up but depends on weather conditions etc etc

 

[Chris@CCM]

i like ek9s but there far far far from a fast car the ass is dropn out of the price up here allready. a gt running 1 bar on a ct9 (with a good set up would beat one up the strip no worrys)

 

[Phil]

yup, an ek9 isnt a fast car in a straight line at all really,

and its not the owner being gentle with the car till she is warmed up, the engine wont engage the vtec cam till its up to temperature, something to do with oil pressure?

[Rory]

Vtec wont engage properly until caertain perameters are met.
Like water temp, oil temp and presure, vehicle speed etc etc.

So yes, if its not warmed up properly, it wont work properly, like most things really

Search for a post from "Murray" on here, he listed all the perameters needed.

back to the stated topic...

i wouldnt call a 200bhp starlet highly modified, as it really doesnt take much to get there and can be done on the cheap. so your looking for a mildly tuned facelift glanza v, id advise doing it urself as your'd learn more and could maintain it urself. but as ur keen on buying someones car, id advise doing some research on starlet mods before buying something hazardly tuned. its safe to say your in good hands on this site, good luck with the search.

 

[andybill]

shame your not in england as im after an ek9/dc2 in swap for my td04 forged glanza

you misunderstand me id like nothing more than to buy a basic car and build it myself like i did with my civic but the civic would have to sell so id have the money to do it and nobody pays money for cars anymore.
and @andybill its a shame alright.
