Hey guys, I thought we could have a bit of fun with the upcoming dyno day and run a competition to see who can guess closest to the little black beast's power figure. Here are all the specs and lets start bidding. You got to remember that this is a track weapon and demands respect :no:

*1997 model Toyota Starlet 3dr ADM (Aus Spec)

*1.3 ltr DOHC 4EFE or SR13DE in Nissan terms

*260,000+ Kms

*Many years of shameless abuse from both me and Dj On Ice

*Recent Oil and filter change

*Rear end Parking damage

*Lightweight wheel nuts

*1 Skylines Australia Texikhana competition

*Skylines Performance sticker

*Several skidpan days

*New Clutch!!

*Fluffy Dice

Exact power figure to the nearest whole number

I will take suggestions for the prize but now it stands at a Free drive of the Mighty Starlet, but not on the streets, no, somewhere you can handle it, like an abandoned runway or racetrack.

And for all those serious guessers, I will be running only the best, BP Ultimate with Octane boost to get those few extra watts

Here goes first bid

TURISMO 15 FWKW, Im underguessing so I'm not to dissapointed :)

P.S. No cheating and finding the factory KW's of the net, because they would be useless after all this car has gone through

OK... I haven't logged on in a while and for those of you who don't know that I own the Starlet (how depressing LOL :-P).... REECE (TURISMO) didn't ask me about this!!!!!.... ALL THE SAME!... Much respect my brother! LMFAO... This is going to be awesome....

So come on people... can you guess it? ;-)

Oh and it should have been "Many years of SHAAAAAMELESS abuse from both me and Dj On Ice" :-P. We have so much love for that little car!

.... Wait a minute... I don't have fluffy dice in the car.... (but before you ask... yes, yes it has been christend)

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
