Re: Changing gear box oil in my tubby..what type?..and where??
It's superior to the overpriced, overated MT90. Still a much better buy.

Re: spotted on ebay
Guys, i'm so glad you bought this to my attention and a very VERY large thanks to Earl to actually texting me this morning for letting me know.

Re: [All] [Generic] Which ECU would you choose from the list below and why?
Motec all the way. Mine is now going on the starlet when i get it. Even our own Mikejc here eventually came round and realized it was the only logical step forward. As for Dave Rowe, he is the nicest guy you could ever want to meet and will map anything if you're nice to him, he's already agreed to ...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Oh poo
LOL at some peoples idea of cheap.
Mark has the right idea, cheap motoring in the n/a EP91. A few choice mods just to keep me occupied and i'll be happy for now.

I'll let them say when they're ready to. I need to check it all out first, don't want to sell it if it's damaged in any way.
