my starter went a while ago and since then has been replaced. My car does start up really quick now as the starter was cranking the engine faster. I never knew how bad my old starter was untill the new one was put in.

sorry bad use of words...when I went from stock 1.1mm to the 0.6 IRIWAY7s it started like magic everytime. I can only remember once when it didn't start straight away.

I'm not making this up...I noticed a difference the first time I started the car cold....cos I hardly had to turn the key.
