    Did you not try searching for the part number? (89428-20060) Doesn't look like lucas do a coolant switch for the starlet.

    Engine Removal

    You can probably ignore me, I'm an awkward bastard who usually takes them out from above lol. Will have to change that approach when it comes to my auto as the box weighs as much as the engine. Plan of attack there is; Unplug all wiring and pull looms out of the way Remove both driveshafts or...

    My starlets engine shake starting in first gear

    Only on take off in first? Juttering would suggest a possible worn clutch or if it's the actual engine moving you could have a worn/broken engine mount causing issues.

    Power Steering With Engine Swop??????

    Never even heard of a Conquest before but it's a re-badged Corolla isn't it? @Frankieflowers would be a good man to talk to on this, he's done the engine swap and was investigating power steering racks recently.

    Engine oil and spark plugs

    I'd stick with 10-40 then. A brand you recognise/trust is best. I run 10-40 semi synthetic in mine as I'd be quite regular with oil changes.

    4E-FTE Internals Issue - PLEASE HELP IF POSSIBLE

    Can remember a discussion on bearings before, think this was it: https://www.toyotagtturbo.com/community/index.php?threads/4efte-forged-build-guidance-needed.110259/ There's a few good links in there anyway if nothing else.

    Engine oil and spark plugs

    Would usually refer that sort of question to the engine builder or tuner. Some can be picky on both points. If in doubt go with what's already in it. Would guess you will have colder than stock plugs and some fancy fully synthetic oil if it's a forged build.

    Where to wire electrical accessories?

    Yes, I'd go from the centre console myself, just depends on what you have access to.

    Recaro rear bench EP91

    I'm all out of EP91 seats unfortunately. Keep an eye on ebay and facebook groups and you might get lucky with something though.
