cherrye10 Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Any of you guys know what this is? He stated it fits starlets, but don't know anything about it. Pls help http://www.maltapark.com/item.aspx?ItemID=2054207 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
russ78 Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 (edited) its from a yrv turbo although it has a different engine code (vet r) bare block is the same emgine as a 4efte Edited January 7, 2014 by russ78 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
russ78 Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 (edited) the vet engine uses a different head and a timing chain instead of belt driven but essentially it is the same enginesame block, crank, pistons etc Edited January 7, 2014 by russ78 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cherrye10 Posted January 7, 2014 Author Share Posted January 7, 2014 (edited) price seems attractive. will keep tabs on it. Def not the 1st time daihatsu used toyota engines. If I'm not mistaken, 1st gen terios used the same engine too Edited January 7, 2014 by cherrye10 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
russ78 Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 might be a interesting build as the vet engine uses a vvti head so basically you would have starlet 4e with variable valve lift.I like the sound of that obvously would need a standalone thpugh Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Vvti isn't variable valve lift its only timing advancement, and if its an early vvti engine it will only be on one cam. What power to these make stock? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
russ78 Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 (edited) from memory very close to a stock starlet turbo about 130bhp Edited January 7, 2014 by russ78 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cherrye10 Posted January 7, 2014 Author Share Posted January 7, 2014 do they take the same mods as stock 4efe/4eftes? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
russ78 Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 if you was to use the YRV vvti head I would imagine it will be different flanges for exhaust manifold and intake manifoldso no, but if you was to swap the head for a starlet turbo head then all mods would be bolt on yes Quote Link to post Share on other sites
russ78 Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 if your serious about this always do your research first Quote Link to post Share on other sites
russ78 Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 (edited) quick google search and I found a few pics that may help, if you look closely at pic 1 you can see a 4efte block, pic 3 shows the different head and you can make out bolt holes are different on the flanges Edited January 7, 2014 by russ78 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cherrye10 Posted January 7, 2014 Author Share Posted January 7, 2014 looks interesting; an -efe and -zzfe hybrid! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cherrye10 Posted January 8, 2014 Author Share Posted January 8, 2014 main question mark is if it is a straight fit into the starlet. I already experienced buying a wrong engine with the 5afe and dont want to go through the same hassle again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pockrockgtti Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 The k3vet has nothing in common with the 4efte, apart from the fact it a 1.3 and turbocharged. I mean the bore and stroke of the engine isnt anywhere near the same. Its got a chain aswell not a belt. So i doubt very much the head off that will fit a 4efte. The kv3vet is more or less the 1.3 2szfe which is found in first gen yaris with a turbo slaped on it. So it should be a straight forward bolt in into a yaris. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Josh@TunerLifestyle Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 i have a YRV ( non turbo ) as my run around. its the same engine thats found in the 1.3 Yaris going to go outside and look at the block now to see if it looks the same lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites

pockrockgtti Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Its not gonna be a bolt in a starlet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cherrye10 Posted January 10, 2014 Author Share Posted January 10, 2014 is this a 3szfe? http://maltapark.com/item.aspx?ItemID=1993183 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 No that's a zz engine of sorts.The 3sz has the exhaust on the front of the engine like starlets where as the 4zz 2zz 1zz etc have the inlet on the front like the engine in the last link. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
