What engines in that? That can't be an N series lol. Diesels are amazing. I used to hate diesel but once you drive one you realise they are completely different to petrol but can still be a lot of fun. Shitty little 1.5's aren't much good and non turbos are totally gutless. Tuned diesels can be a lot of fun though, bags of torque from 2k rpm and lots of smoke. If you do get a diesel Starlet make sure it's a turbo one, or you can source the extra bits from a turbo engine. A bit of fiddling with the fuel pump and a slight increase in boost makes them much better to drive. And they can actually be more fuel efficient with a mild tune, you don't need to use as many revs as you're making more torque at lower RPM.

Who told you that? lol anything bigger than 15" is stupid unless it's a big car. Nice Scooby, definitely the best shape for them.

I stopped reading as soon as I read the word "environment". Fuck off. It wont happen, it's just the garage wankers trying to force people to use their facilities and spend money there instead of saving money and doing it yourself.

If you connect the wires up yes you'll hear sound from it but it will be shit, you really need an amp. And I'm sure I read somewhere that "under powering" a sub doesn't do it any good.

I think Starlets are one of those cars that 90% of people wont understand. Fuck what other people think, they probably drive something shit anyway.

tempted but don't know if I'll be getting another Starlet yet

Yeah it's completely pointless but in theory that's what you'd need to do to get near 100bhp (just copy the setup of the 1st gens). I once thought it would be good to tune a 4EFE but in reality they aren't really that great for N/A tuning, if you want to stay non turbo then get a 4AGE, the E series wasn't designed with performance in mind. Less than £100 gets you an inlet manifold and air filter, that's all I'd ever do on a 4EFE now. Save the rest for a turbo.

Nice wheels What's the rev limit on these mate? Is it the same as the UK spec's @ 6200rpm or is it higher?

Yeah Enzo had that mani on his EP80, bought from Joz. I was thinking about this the other day, and while it's totally pointless to spend upwards of a few hundred quid on a 4EFE, it "should" be possible to touch 100bhp easily on a 4EFE - the 1st gen (100ps) had a higher rev limit than our UK spec ones, and they make their peak power a lot higher up. So with a 4EFTE intake and throttle body, some sort of exhaust manifold, a higher rev limit and a remap (piggyback) UK spec engines "should" be at the same level. I don't know what the rev limit is on the Glanza S, anyone shed any light on that one? Since they make 95bhp if my memory is correct, and I assume they have a higher rev limit than our UK spec engines.

From what I remember the OBX isn't the best of designs, the "Hotshot" 4-1 manifold was the only one that made good gains I thought.

Found this />http://www.ukstarletowners.com/index.php?showtopic=29434&st=0

Too much boost on standard manifold and you can kiss goodbye to piston #3. I think that was it anyway, I've been away from the Starlet scene for a bit.

The camber wont change on the rear at all. The only thing you will need to touch is the panhard rod.

Where did my comment go LOL!

I remember when this car looked like this: HAHA the hilarious intake and ridiculous lip

How many pedals has it got?

I heard open downpipes are quite quiet.

I think the top pic was a photoshop and it was only on standard suspension on the bottom pic, I'm fairly sure he lowered it afterwards. I love it though.

Found the cunt this is the one I was looking for:

What other mods did you have? Injectors? Fuel pump? Clutch? I'm guessing it was the usual setup of manifold/decat/exhaust/intake/FMIC, all bolted on, (which inlet manifold did you use?) then 4EFTE injectors, with standard gearbox etc...? And although 0.5 bar doesn't sound like much I imagine it's "enough" because the 4EFE has a higher compression ratio. What was the rev limit? Did you do any head work? (4EFTE valve springs?) Standard 4EFE rad or was the cooling upgraded?

Is the Supra gone now then mate?

Did a quick search and from what I can see, the 4EFTE manifold and TB are best for peak power, and the Corolla manifold best for all round, and the 4EFTE stuff isn't easy to fit compared to the good old Corolla manifold.

Good vid but LOL the lad in the vid who speaks the most sounds like Simon off the Inbetweeners especially when talking about the handling/suspension. Actually the one that says about the top mounts sounds like Neil LOL

I did, but fuck am I going through 35 pages

Anyone got any pics?
