Do they not torque steer then, or are the shafts equal lengths?

Don't know on the shafts but Torque-steer would not be anywhere near as pronounced as the GT...for the lack of, you guessed it...torque :homer: Besides, torque steer usually results from high amounts of low-end torque in the lower gears, seeing as the 4A only really provides power near the redline, it shouldn't be too much of an issue even when thoroughly modified

They're good cars mate. The 6-speed box drops into the powerband lovely on acceleration, so it makes for a swift car... I've got a 1999 BZ-G, and I likes it very much! Once I get it UK registed, it's on it's way though... :( Too many cars at the moment...

Ahh, so it's a little but better than my GT on fuel, that's good to hear.

I assume they need to be run on SU rather than pisswater 95ron? :p

That TRD Trueno has apparently sold :(.

The advert is still on eBay and Pistonheads, so I don't believe it myself, but meh. Going to have to hunt about for one me-thinks, there's only a couple for sale at the moment! :(

EDIT:- Hmm, things aren't too bad. It seems not everyone puts "AE111" in the advert title, searching for just Levin or Trueno brings back more results, one of which being this...

Really? Cool. :D

I noticed from a few interior shots that they seem to share some of the cabin equipment too, door switches etc. :)

I've never really known much about them until someone offered a PX and I did a Google search. I love the styling, I think it's fantastic. Engine is good too. I'd love one with the 4A-GZE lump in. :D

thats proper nice that levin mr fish

It is indeed. Sold now though. :(

This Trueno is simply stunning though...

Yeh, I think that would be in KM's, so about 75k miles ish. I did send them an email, not heard anything as yet. The other guy with the TRD one did reply, just to say it was sold. No mention of being interested in a PX though. :(

well il keep looking! i hope i sell me glanza, but by the looks px maybe a option.

i was talking to my tuner yesterday, he said my management, and fuel regulator can be put on to these cars, and would see a gain... so the parts out of my starlet can go on this.. then he was beggin me to keep the boost controller so he can turbo it. i think he thinks im made of money :( (wish i was)
