my only concern about the car is in relation to where it will be competing--BP

seeing some of the groups and driving up there.....i suspect that this beauty could get some bumps/scrapes/hits/nudges/etc in its very first lap:(:(

Bushy park is a grim place to race, i highly doubt that neil will race it there.

Nice, very expensive, lightly OTT on the aggressiveness of the arches though.

Shame about the engine, deserves to be 4EFTE still!

doesnt do anything for me.. not a bodykit man myself, loots way OTT.. colours nice though :)

an awesome build no doubt. but i cant imagine that a n/a(or am i missing something?) 4age 16v can give this car enough grunt to make it live up to its bodywork?

we've all seen dissapointing 4age's they seem very hard to get power out of even with much money spent!

it doesn't have to do anythin for u....... the body kit isn't for style. The car's suspension has been seriously altered for suspension travel hence y it would need taller arches. The wheels are about 2 or 3 inches outside the body so the kit is needed......... the 4age 16 valve is a formula atlantic engine. If ya'll were to come to Bushy Park u'd see a few of them running on the track.......... not sure if stuart williams will b there in his KP63 series rwd starlet but that is another starlet right there that's nice all....... $13,000 rpm of it. Then there's another ep82 with a blacktop 20 valve doin 14,000 rpms dunno if that hs been toned down though

is not a kit dan! i think the arch extensions are there because it has alot wider wheel base then a standard starlet. amazing car!!! It would be great to have something like that in the uk.

i can understand the reason for it needing wide arches, not disputing that at all. just saying it does nothing for me to look at, with the roof spoiler and toms style bumper..

I disagree!!

It reminds me of a Junior WRC car with the arches wheels and bumper so needs a High revving ITB super1600 type engine which it has :D :rockon:

Best EP82 ever IMO :)

I wouldn't even to like to think about the amount of man hours and money gone into this, reminds me of the wide arch mk5 fiesta that was about couple years ago

Setting the standards for the starlets :rockon:

Well that was my point really, engine is junior compared to the rest of the car.
It is OTT considering what is under the bonnet.

I've been watching British rallycross on Motors TV alot recently and nothing there that looks this 'badass' has anything less than 500bhp.

Fk me, i jizzed in my pants, the arches blend in nicely with the toms bumper & doobie rear splitter???

Very nice spoiler too, Engine bay looks mint, its that front strut made to look like its standard with car?

As you cant tell its been bolted on or whatever, blends in with the chasis.

Love the decal "attitude in a can"
