MegstuBMW Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 (edited) To begin with, I am from Lithuania, I have youtube channel "megstubmw" with nice amount of viewers and one day one of my viewer offered a gift, EP91 Starlet. I accepted it and it turned in to my everyday car. Slowly I started to modify it and could not stop. Serious mods started from custom suspension, car started to feel so good on a road. Finally I decided to install turbo, megasquirt ecu, sequential spark and fuel, retarded intake camshaft and made custom intake manifold to move power in to higher revs, custom exhaust manifold.. 95% done myself. Full story from day one to this day is in my youtube channel 🙂 . (soon I will upload more photos) Edited January 20, 2023 by MegstuBMW Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thonfella259 Posted June 6, 2020 Share Posted June 6, 2020 Nice work man, sad to see that she shit the bed after so much work☹️ Still using the 4efe block and head??, also how’d you go about the coil pack conversion/ ecu you used. Cheers lad👌 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sam44 Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 (edited) nice mod with the cams. The cam setup on the 4efe is very low rpm power orientated. Question: What kind of power figures did you get and what clutch? Keep the videos coming. Great to see some timed runs. Edited June 7, 2020 by Sam44 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cheers lad👌 Thank you :-) . Using original unmodified 4e-fe head and block. I changed ecu and upgraded to individual coils to get full control, accurate and strong spark. Everything works great.

This tune was made on street, so I don't know how much was that, but my tuner sait it was +-200ag and these 2jz-ge injectors was at nearly 100% duty. Clutch used in this setup is oem standard replacement LUK. At this power level clutch still held, but it felt like few more horses, better tires or lsd added would make it slip.

I'll check out the injector rate now. 650cc? Thanks for the reply. Am I right in thinking this is a td03? What boost pressure was you running? Great to see these 4efe boosted.

What boost pressure was you running? Great to see these 4efe boosted. Yes, I used td03 turbo, boost pressure was 0.8bar at 6000rpm (less boost at lower rpm to remove stress from skinny rods).

Sam44 Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 Nice. Thanks again for the information. It will be good to see the difference in times using the turbo gearbox and larger k04. Keep up the good work. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sam44 Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 Looking very good. Same clutch as mine. It's going to be good to see the ko4 in a 4e. Will you be running a fuel mix. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Claymore Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 Really like the use of the later crank trigger wheel and sensor. Toyota o.e. parts upgrades should work well. This is from the 3rd generation 4efe? Used in the 97-02 corolla? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

glanzadude Posted June 22, 2020 Share Posted June 22, 2020 What happened to the front off the car? Great build tho Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Thonfella259 Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 Some really bad luck you’ve been having👎, pulled the front out nicely would barely notice it’s been hit👌 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
