Im still here, never posted much on the old forum and still dont post much now, on the forum pretty much everyday tho, in my opinion i think its because all the same things come up, td04 this td04 that, how much boost on a standard engine ect ect, takes its toll on the older members.

rather than me quoting a few people, its deffo good to see the leerchers are still here, i remeber the old pre 2007 forum too faint memories these days.

yea it would of been mee with the "funky long hair" but that would of been yeaaars ago, all smart and professinal in a retail managment haha, still dont mean i love to get coverd in oil in my spare time.
streetracer_starlet - the slam panel cutting was a bad idea at the time but im more of a perfectionist now lol, also got myself a welder so its all right first time :D
couple shots of my GT and Eunos:

mazda had 269bhp 236ibft at 13psi(td05 16g) and around 300bhp just before i blew it up few months ago ( now im forging it and going for 350-400 depending on what the gearbox can take)
and the GT i have no idea on power, but i suspect well over 300 with the current setup and will be pushing more when i eventualy fit the td06 20g

cheers dude, iill check there pages out, its kinda a shame for my GT as i build it with such a good all round setup and then started on teh mazda and havnt really had time to enjoy it, well thats why im back in it :D

the td06 will only be an experament as i love the way the td05 feels, next to no lag and plenty of power for track and road use.

I think we have all been trapped in that thread so youngsta can take over for good :p
I have no idea when I joined, must be around 2004. (took me some time to figure out this forum was around, I was keep focusing for "Glanza forum" on my google search lol)

Blast from the past indeed!

Think it was 2004 I started lurking on here too, at least two forums ago.

Just lurk now, as not many threads interest me anymore :(

My recent Starlet went 2 weeks ago after 6 years of Starlet ownership.

Now the owner of a mint Celica GT4 ST205 since Saturday should be back in a Starlet again 1 day.
