Thought it was about time I put together a build thread for the Starlet after the dilemma I had with the Evo.
I have owned the car for 8 years now and its new eventual home within Motorsports is where I plan to make my attack.
This is how the car has sat for the last 2 years since I broke my crankshaft cap, I did build a replacement Forged unit for it however it was sold so I now plan to start a fresh build.
It made sense to use the Starlet since all the parts I have accumulated over the last 8 years are for it. With the car being so light hopefully that can make up for the driver! :roll:
New Engine Spec:
I have opted to go back to running the TD04 for SLS, with a power output of around 270hp I think it would be really well suited to Knockhill as I would normally achieve full boost around 3600rpm.
