Evo was very quick, but i needed to get a daily driver. I really love my EK9 even if its slower. There's something about it that makes it special. :nice:

Fully forged and balanced internals.

TD04L turbo from 2005 Subaru Impreza WRX at 1.4bar.
 
Still own this car but havent driven it in about 7 months as saving for a rebuild and bigger turbo:

Is that a starlet Dan? Whats the difference between yours and Gee's above? Thought they'd look the same but seems a different shape?

hi mate,

Yes, mine is the previous model to Gee's..

Mine is a starlet GT turbo and his is a Starlet Glanza V

They both come with pretty much same spec, although i had a 2.0litre turbo conversion done....

Ah, thought it might have been a facelift kinda deal. Never really seen a Starlet up close, but for the amount of people that move from them to the EK9 its kinda got my interest up..

Cheers for the info!!

My 9 is only my third car, but heres what I had before hand:

My old swift gti...It was a bit of a love/hate relationship at times, but it was still pretty good fun to drive.I'm still trying to get my ek9 as clean/smooth as I used to get the swift:(

The ITR next to me belongs to the brother in law of the ex owner of my 9! It has an n/a fully built spoon engine kickin out about 260bhp, I think :shocked:
