Hey guys 

 

I have a starlet gt turbo ep82

it has td04 conversion at 0.6 bar

jam ecu

fmic 

dump valve

abd loads of other parts

 

it runs beautifully but it seems everyone and their dog has a starlet and they always seem to blow up?

i have paid a lot of money for this car and absolutely love it but I’m not a mechanic and if the worst happens then I wouldn’t be able to fix the car myself and I don’t want to own a money pit

it seems even if the afr is correct there are still so many factors that would cause the engine to go

are starlets reliable? Should I sell up?

I had my gt for nearly 3 years without any problems! Only 1 thing went wrong and that was the oil seals on the ct9 turbo! But it had done 90k miles and was being run at 1 bar boost so was bound to go eventually haha 

apart from the usual wear and tear items they’re as solid as toyotas come!
