82' KP61 Starlet - 4age swap

[KJR111]

Figured it was finally time to throw up a build thread.

1982 Toyota Starlet


Engine/drivetrain:
4age Blue-top/T-50 5 speed swap
40 DCOE Webers (completely rebuilt)
Modified 4k-c distributor (mechanical advance)
AE86 rear end w/ Starlet 4-link setup
Modified Starlet drivesahaft

Ignition:
MSD Streetfire ignition box
MSD BLaster2 coil
Aurora Ignition wires

Footwork:
Stock Starlet shocks/cut springs front and rear
*soon to be upgraded to AE86 front struts/brakes and full T3 coil over set-up front and rear likely*
Enkei Compe 8 14x6
Falken Azenis 195/60/14

I am currently waiting for my TRD DCOE manifold to get back from the machine shop. The slight downward angle on them does not work in the Starlet with the 4age sitting completely level.

Anyways, here are some pictures showing how I got it to where it is. Enjoy.





















Those pictures are from a little while ago. 15's are gone, hated them, 14" Enkei Compe 8's are on.







I'll have some more photos once the carbs go back on and I get it running and out on the street. Plans now are basicially suspension as soon as possible, and than a full roll cage and getting it race prepped.

not that this build isn't really cool but I'm pretty sure Chris has bigger plans.

good work, keep it up

great work! can't wait to see your other plans...

Well, had it out to a local autocross today. Needs suspension, carbs were running lean, modified Starlet dizzy is giving me trouble and timing is way off, detonation shattered the electrode on one of my plugs at some point, but all in all it was still tons of fun! Thanks Leboe for the great pictures!

Very cool pics! Nicely done on the entrance to that box...look how close you are to the edge cone!

Well, since I had switched the plates over to a Volvo Turbo I bought about a month ago, but have had no luck selling the Starlet, I decided to put it back on the road until winter, enjoy it since I still have it. Finally got around to mounting the replica TRD rear spoiler, here's a few fresh pics of the car:

i want that wing

[leboe]

YES. did you still need some decent struts? I've got Monroes that are unused.

[KJR111]

I'm flat broke right now, zero dollars, haven't been getting paid at work unfortunately. But, he next plans for the car are suspension, though I still have to decide on what I'm doing. Chance are it will just be stiffer springs and decent short strokes, so I probably won't grab the Monroes. Thanks though. Autocross this week?

So the car never sold, and now I am able to put some more money and time towards it. Going to repaint it (white), have some bubble flares on the way, and just received my suspension (DGR Coilovers for an AE86):

I think these 15s looked great on the car! Just my irrelevant opinion.

Anyways, nice work!
