Nice Car. Looking Good.

Nice update. Keep them coming.

Klyfax. I had to get used to the power. Hehe.

Nice write up. At last.

You better find more pics. And get going with new manifold. I am curious on how much faster it's going to be, than my old car.

Yup. That bonnet hans been badboy'd.

I'll tell my brother to upload some fresh pics.

Looks sick!

Delete post :-)

I have talked with my brother, and we agreed to post two pics of his other starlet. These two pics are one year old. Today the car is a bit wider and alot meaner. Its a full on custom project with custom bodywork, bodykit and interior. A long term project. Maybe it will be reader for a paint job this summer, but only maybe. The car rides on 10x17" wheels in all 4 corners. The fenders are widend in metal, no fiberglass here. If you have any questions, I am sure that he will answer most of them

Here are the teasers.

Just don't ask for more pics. I don't think that he wants more posted, before it is finished.

Some one asked to se the rest of our starlets. So here is our sisters. We bought it a few years ago. It's one of the last LHD ones. All the interior is in a different color. A facelift, if you want to call it that. Reflet rear lights, Avensis side markers, clear front lights and original Toyota bluetooth handsfree phone kit. The car is lowered 40mm with AP springs and KYB shocks.

Our other sisters Starlet was just bought a few days ago. So gives us some time to clean and polish it. Then we will post some pics. This one is also lowered, with H&R springs and Sachs Sport Touring shocks.

And you can se mine, in the signature. Just click the link

Oh and by the way, here is our Dads 2004 Avensis 2.0 on 19"s

Nice car. Congrats.

Remember to check the subframe for cracks. Almost all E46 crack the subframe mounting points. Even the M3.

But doesnt Sweden have some amatørbygg rules. that you can get a tuned car leagel?

I'm almost in the same situation my self. Need to take the "MOT" before desember, and almost nothing on my car is street legal...

Yup, but the car is not extreme enough for amatørbygg. I have asked them, and they told me, that the car could get legal, but i have to change it radically. Like putting a 3SGTE engine in it, and change the chassis to handle the power and torque. So basically, I would have to change the whole car. And I was just tired of fighting the Cops and MOT people.

Nice Erik.

Was nice to see the car in action at Gatebil.

Thanks guys. :-)

Nice updates. Looking good. Nice to see that you are still cracking on that little blurple killer :-)

Edit :

by the way the front gold wheels look sick! :-)

Thanks guys. Nope won't be leaving UKSC.

My next car will be on here to. Even if it's not a starlet or even a Toyota.

I have no idea what will be replacing my litle toy. An Yaris T-Sport, BMW or a Volvo. I have no idea. Maybe just a small sensible car and a chopper. Yamaha, Kawasaki or a Harley.

Joz everything else I had is sold.

So I all depends on what I will get for my parts and how much.

But damn it was fun the time I drove her on boost. I did never get her mapped to the 250bhp and 300nm. But in the end se at least had 230bhp and 250nm.

I have probably killed every Audi I have met. 3.2 V6 Quattros or V8 Quattros. I sadly never met an M3, which was my killing goal.

But as I

I must admit I am a bit fed up. The last 4 years, the last 4 summer vacation were spent in a workshop building my engines.

For once I would like to travel somewhere for the summer.

But if I don't sell the engine and gearbox, in a year or so. Then I will come to UK and pick a Glanza or a Quadlight GT. and fit the engine and box.

Here is another update, a rather sad one.

My car has always been insured as a custom turbo car. But that didn't mean that I was street legal. I wouldn't never pas a mot because of the engine and the power. I used to take the turbo of, when the mot was due.

To months ago, I got stopped at a police and mot control, on a the border between Denmark and Sweden. I the wanted to se the car. The mot guys were impressed by the build, but that didn't change that it was illegal. So no fines for me, and the gave me a months to make it street legal.

I took the turbo and exhaust of as usual and drove to the mot centre.

At the mot, the mot guy started to write up all of my mods. And I really didn't understand why, so I asked. There is apparently a law in Sweden, that says, if your car is an euro spec. ( a car made for the European Market, and has an E number stamped on the bulkhead. The the Toyota importer has to allow all mods! Which they won't!

There I have to bring the car back to 100% standard!

If I have started my build on a JDM starlet or a Glanza. Then it would not have been any problems. But since it was an EU model. It has to be totally standard.

So this is where my project stops!

I used some 3 weeks to build the car back to standard.

This is how it looked 2 months ago:

And this is how it looks today!

:-(

Every part I had on the car is up for sale. First I will try to sell them locally, but if some one wants something and is willing to pay for the postage. I am willing to send it to uk.

Nice! Congrats!

See you at Rudskogen 8-10 Juli

I have one ;-)

A Glanza V Conversion with an 5efhte :-)

Go for the S15, its a great looking car.

If I could insure one, then I would have bought one!

A 2010 Focus RS. A friend of mine has one. And they are the best compromise between a sports hatch and a daily driver.

Nice. Back to the way the car should look like.

Looking good!

Any pics of the frone end of the white starlet?

That front lip looks cool. Leon Cupra R lip?

Pretty shure that they will rub.

Two new pics...
