russ78 Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 (edited) As above guys watch out for this guy he thinks he a bit of a smart arse, but take a closer look at this engine and you can clearly see its STOCK 5EFE running a turbo !! I messaged him and asked for what spec it was running he said a CT9 at 0.8BAR BEWARE this is not a 5EFTE just wanted to let people aware as it nearly tricked me http://www.gumtree.com/p/cars-vans-motorbikes/toyota-starlet-5efte-engine/1037261110 Edited November 5, 2013 by russ78 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fremyjay Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Hes the one breaking that white shity bodge job of a starlet Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 It is the N/a that had the castrol decals, had a 5E dropped in, still N/a. Got sold and passed around a few times, someone strapped a CT9 to it and here it is. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
russ78 Posted October 31, 2013 Author Share Posted October 31, 2013 (edited) he got proper shitty with me when I said why is he listing it as a 5EFTE, he says "well I wont get much interest if I just listed as a engine would I" ? I said no but just list it as what it actually is a 5EFE but sadly no response and its still there so hes obviously gonna try to screw someone over with it Edited October 31, 2013 by russ78 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fremyjay Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 he obviously knows nothing about glanzas and just brought it to break and make some cash, complete knob Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rmsnoel Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Whats the problem here? Is it a fhe with a turbo n front mount? Cause thats not a uk 5e Quote Link to post Share on other sites
raffa_mk Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 The person selling the bits off the car is a good lad, bought parts off him, he doesn't know much about Glanza 's , this car he's breaking use to belong to a member on this forum when it was n/a and since then has had a ct9 turbo conversion added to it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
russ78 Posted October 31, 2013 Author Share Posted October 31, 2013 A 5efte is a frankenstein engine its made from a 4e and 5e engine normally with forged internals this is a bog standard 5efe non turbo engine just with a ct9 turbo bolted to it.There is nothing wrong with doing this but it still doesnt make it a 5efte engine and trying to sell it to an unsuspecting buyer as a 5efte engine is just plain deceitful imo Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Check out the old build thread for the car.http://www.ukstarletowners.com/topic/40799-toyota-starlet-5e-sr-wrc-corolla-replica/99% sure its the same car. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
russ78 Posted October 31, 2013 Author Share Posted October 31, 2013 I normally wouldnt worry about things like this its only that I nearly fell for it myself so just wanted to make others aware. as he wasnt prepared to correct his listing Quote Link to post Share on other sites
raffa_mk Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 (edited) That's the one ^^ Edited October 31, 2013 by Raffa_MK Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RobSR Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 Dunno i wouldnt say theres anything massively wrong. 5efte's dont have to be forged to be classed as one Quote Link to post Share on other sites
russ78 Posted November 3, 2013 Author Share Posted November 3, 2013 Dunno i wouldnt say theres anything massively wrong. 5efte's dont have to be forged to be classed as onetrue but advert should clearly state that its just a standard 5efe with a turbo bolted to it... but it says 5efte which in my eyes is a 4efte head etc, and a 5efe block with forged internals. the 't' part of 5efte is derived from 4efte so a stock 5efe isnt a 5efte its just a 5efe with a turbo bolted to it my whole arguement is not that hes selling it but listing it incorrectly on purpose Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gainzy Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 (edited) true but advert should clearly state that its just a standard 5efe with a turbo bolted to it... but it says 5efte which in my eyes is a 4efte head etc, and a 5efe block with forged internals. the 't' part of 5efte is derived from 4efte so a stock 5efe isnt a 5efte its just a 5efe with a turbo bolted to it my whole arguement is not that hes selling it but listing it incorrectly on purposeTotally agree he now is aware of what the engine is so he should change the listing to stop any more confusion.
