Haha im having a baby in 4 weeks and now I got all sorts of ideas now misses not going be happy lol

Yep sounds all right pink injection 4 speed revs high too. Bought it a while back but got done over soon as I got the car home had some nasty noises so asumed bearing but neglect for a year and now she's running on 3 cylinders. So I got bearings for her but because of the cylinder problem I wanted to get the head off to make sure the rings and boar's are okay as I'm not looking to spend lots of money I've bough 2 starlets and both them have faild to ever make it to the road hahs.Back to the point! come up against a problem 2 of the head bolts are slightly rounded Il be able get them out but they will need replacing.and head bolts alone I'd imagine are more than a used 4efe. anyway the whole thing is out now. So what I wanted to gain from this thread was if I stright swap my engine for a standard 4efe will I lose much will it be worth using the head or isn't just a stronger engine ect. Guys mucj appreciate your reply very good info and fast thanks alot

Hey guys any one know if there is anything different with the soleil engine compared to other 4efe? From what I've looked so far it appears to just be ecu. Just took the engine out of mine and seeking a new one so any knowledge much appreciated

Thanks guys going to be doing some more cleaning on it on the weekend and me and BenV are going to clean something out in the carbs i don't really understand it all but its so the car idles right :L at the moment its not idling very well and you have to fiddle with the chalk to get it half decent. il problt take some more pic for you to
-
Thanks man The boot lid got some bad ass rust on it and doesn't look like it can be saved so im planning on getting a GT boot for it. also needs a new clutch and new rad so im going sort them before i go to much into it. i was just out there using some cutting compound on the roof to get some colour back and i took some pic of the rust on the boot and the the rad that is totally gone. shes coming along nicely though

on the weekend i picked up my first car with BenV. we went to stroud to pick it up and had a bit of a laugh with the suspension on the trip home on picking the car up it was wet and the paint didn't look all that bad but as we have now discovered it going to need allot of cutting to bring it back to its former glory. took us nearly 2 hours to bring the bonnet back up lol. today we got set on sorting out the really dodgy suspension setup with a set of D2 coilovers and a set of temporary alloys i borrowed from my brother. comments welcome guys right this is what we started with as you can see from these pics the red paint has lost its shine so i plan on cutting the paint to hopfully bring it back if not a new coat of red might be on the cards. here's the difference n shock size and heres the finished look for now any way here is my beast of an engine this has confused me slightly though as when i first looked up the ep80 gl it was down as a 999cc 4 speed but on picking her up its got a 5 speed box so im wondering wether is got the 1300cc 2e engine in it instead. any help on this would be much appreciated So I've started to use some cutting compound to get some the red closer to it former glory. and while i was out there i thought id take some pics of the cars conditions The Right half had had cutting compound on it, the left un treated. Here is my rusty ass boot what left of what used to be a rad and can you belive that we made it back to south wales My lovly rusty rad water ;) Thanks liam
