Glanza Al Posted May 27, 2008 Posted May 27, 2008 Best wait for Bourkey and Rick for this one mate Quote
ToyotaTech15 Posted May 27, 2008 Author Posted May 27, 2008 are they other members of the forums like? Quote
StarletRick Posted May 27, 2008 Posted May 27, 2008 thats a big question mate. cant really answer the whole thing! the swap is pretty much straight forward. only the wiring that needs sorting (to fit the turbo ecu). everything else literally bolts into place. any specific questions though, and ill give more detailed questions.

ToyotaTech15 Posted May 27, 2008 Author Posted May 27, 2008 kewl, well i read the post about another n/a starlet that changed to a 4efte, and he seemed to run in2 a few problems throughout the build, he changed th whole 4efe wiring loom for a glanza 1 i think. i can get brand new starlet bits no bother through my work but its more where i can get an engine box etc from can i not just use th complete 4efte loom? i was goin to contact fensport about gettin an engine Quote
Bourkey Posted May 27, 2008 Posted May 27, 2008 Ooooo another 4EFTE swap on the cards. PM me and i'll tell you the whole lot if you want. The person who built my engine did the wiring loom as well. It was plug and play.Have a look at my topic in the n/a rides section bud Bourkey Quote
