    corollas and starlets, my ae111 trueno
  1. Big update! its been a while.. got her out the shed and onto the tow truck for the long haul up to my mates place. looks so much better outside in some light! A couple of days past, and we decided to get started. first things first, heres a video of it running: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xp6DumvwenY Unbolting all the shiz and ready to come out, feat: The Wizard (aka Adam) Once the motor and box was out we started stripping it down, its got an LSD box! we also found out the hole in the front of the block was nothing compared to the carnage at the back... It h
  2. maybe keen on the rods, but im not planning on opening up the 4efe. going to get it tuned but im not planning on more than 150hp because i need reliability. its not that red sleeper either, that one was also bought from over east a fair few years ago
  3. yea i might do man! cheers for the offer we should go for a cruise soon. johnny and fmuscle and anyone else in perth! got the donk in the boot those deadlifts came in handy for something
  4. theres a red sleeper around thats just been registered im pretty sure. a good mate of mine in going to do the swap and im going to help him. im looking for an ebc at the moment, will need to keep the boost down as i dont think the fe motor will like the to4l at full boost. what sort of power are you hoping to make with your setup?
  5. nah the 4efte was swapped into the car in 2012. was brought over from Adelaide and engineered/reregistered here. im realy keen to get the fe motor swapped in! just want to drive it already!
  6. not sure exactly where i should be pointing the camera.. still im a bit of a noob thanks for the fast reply Colin! this one is the block just left of the gearbox and just behind he turbo That hole tho...
  7. Bit of an update, after doing some reading here about turboing the 4efe have decided that me and my mate who are doing the engine swap will just be dropping the whole 4efe in, much less hassle. Problem is im not sure if the current engine is 4efte or 4efe with bolt ons? is there any way i can tell without pulling it apart? what made me think it might be 4efe is that it has a home made exhaust mani and a half sized radiator, but im not sure. its pretty bunky...
  8. just had a quick poke around in the shed and hooked the battery back up since it was nearly charged, and its pretty much all spot on! despite the wiring mess, all lights and central locking work bar the front park lights and the indicator flash upon unlock/lock. Great news for me, now i can just clean it up, cap everything off and install a headunit, and put it back together again! think im going to keep the rear spoiler and lights, sorry!
  9. Hey guys, little update. went to see the folks down south on the weekend, so haven't done much. Did what I was dreading and dug further, only to find this so much wire tapping going on here its not funny. no wonder there was 3 noise cancellers behind the head unit alone. A question for you electrical gurus, someone had installed an amp and tapped into the amps constant power feed for a few things like keyless entry, the head unit and another 2 wires whose purpose i'm not sure of. They haven't used the (blue/yellow stripe) constant power wire in toyotas own radio loom, so co
  10. I think im going to fix it and keep it as a daily, found a dyno report in the car for it making 185hp before it blew up, theres been a LOT of time and money invested into the car so i think its got potential. il probably remove all the glanza bits and keep it stock looking. Im Pretty sure it actually covers the temp guage, which is heaps worse
  11. Im in Beaconsfield, near Fremantle. have already had a good read of your thread and its very interesting! im going to put them and the lip on gumtree for $100 for the lot but if theres no takers, they are yours we should go for a little cruise once I get this engine fixed you wouldn't happen to have a bare long motor for cheap by any chance?
  12. G'day guys and girls, first post here but have been lurking for a while I was thinking recently about building a 4efte starlet as a project, but this popped up instead! 1997, 4efte converted starlet! unfortunately it put a rod through the block, but it still runs. ended up getting it for a good price, so chucked it on a tow truck and got it back home.... as soon as i got it home, off came the ugly front lip and side skirts. see the sneaky intercooler? Started to have a look at the wiring behind the head unit, and it was a mess. its been
