Does the corolla happen to b made in or around 1986, and have a 1GGZE in it or something?

A mate of mine has a supercharged AE86... I don't even know what a starlet has in the engine bay... I thought it was like a second boot...

my friend has a corolla thats supercharged! just wondering if anyone heard of or have a supercharged starlet?

4E-FTE is the jap spec turbo starlet engine. Mate did the conversion to a local model starlet a few years ago, it had guts.

the corrolla would have a 4AGZE from the mr2, zippy little motor.

As for the starlet as mentioned it has the 4E series motor, being such a light car i would expect it to hall some ass :no:

there is no "factory" supercharged/turbo starlets.

I'm sure it's doable, but would be a lot of money for nothing.

I'm assuming you have the aus delivered shopping trolley version.

you can turbo charge that..

or engine conversion from the jap spaec EP82 starlet which has the 4e-fte turbo 100kw engine.

Sydneykid had once mentioned that he knew of someone who had shoehorned a sivler top 20 valve 4age in to one.

those motors are 118kw I think..

was apparently a bit of fun to throw around.

I read about a 20 valve starlet years ago, it was built for circuit racing, power to weight was very good - what it lacked on long straights it made up for it in spades around the corners. From what I remember, the biggest hassle was making an exhaust manifold to fit

Wasnt there an overseas model starlet with turbo from factory?

surely?

I remember seeing a few in Malta few years ago (yep, malta! lol same sorta shape as our late model ones, just different headlights and such)

And then theres the Jap ones from the late 80's

Yep, in Japan there was the Starlet GT, and the newer Starlet Glanza, both ran 4E-FTE engines.

what's wrong with knowing about cars other than nissans?

take your blinkers off and look around the rest of the stable and see how many cars are around that will hand you your arse.

People of the 90's will know how much fun Switft GTi's were to drive... this is before the import days so some of you can go back to sleep...

the EP82 Starlet GT was about the same weight but had about 10 kw more than the swift.

and more torque due to turbo.

they are light, fun cars to drive.

no dori dori so that rules out some more of you.

a stiff rear anti-sway bar makes a world of difference to the handling.

it is not uncommon to see these cars lift their opposite rear wheel when cornering hard.

small article from back in 1999 in hot 4's when whiteline did a kit for them

and ofcourse, just like SAU is to skylines..

http://www.austarletclub.com/ is to starlets.

do a little digging. expand your minds.

    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
