Main give away is obviously the 4wd stickers, but the angle of the exhaust on a 4paw is also different so thats another way to tell without looking underneath it. If you stand far enough back you can see the rear diff and rear anti roll bar on the 85s aswell.

Looking at the pic of your car daniel I think I have your optional extra front mats! they were in the sportif when I got it off russ. Haha do you have the rears I only got the front ones.

Yeah haha, ive only got the 3 rears lol.

managed to get a quicl look at it eariler will upload pictures soon theres no 4wd sticker on this

Even if its just a N/a EP82 its still a good starlet to have, 100ps 4EFE engine.

Best pictures I could get am more leaning toward it being fwd didn't get to look underneath tho , am thinking its just a jap starlet body looks clean bar the front drivers side wing and bumper , be great if I could get it out of that bush and give it a proper look over , cars down as si but I don't think they made SI in 1993 , rear of the car is covered by cars but can't see a 4wd sticker , always thought the soilel l was the base 4wd starlet but could be just a 82 , last 4 years I'm hoping its a 4wd and if its only a fwd if I can get it for the right money I'll get her back to its former glory , was gonna do up the Gi , but it's to good to start modding unless I keep to a oe theme and do little tasteful mods would only really go as far as coilovers and alloys maybe a power air intake but that'd be it and all orginal parts would be going into storage , but fingers crossed this is a 4paw 👍

If I can get her off the owl lad that owns it she'll be getting brought back to live , been off the road 10 years haha , the man that owns it used to have a twin cam ae86 under a tree in that same field and scrapped it , , was a canvas top local to me but a oul one scraped it cause it needed the exhaust replaced :( total shame

Flick the bonnet up and have a look down at the gearbox to see if you can see a transfer box. Or just check the chassis number looking for 85.

Even if its just a 82 Si its basically just the same as your Gi. Although this might be a 4speed gearbox.

Or it could actually be a carb 4E-F if its not a Si.
