ZEUSvsHADES-possibly looking at buying a starlet

[ZEUSvsHADES]

hey guys, my name is Jared and i am from Australia.
i have a vr4 legnum and im possibly looking for a change
these little starlets look pretty cool, but would i be disappointed with the power compared to my legnum?
what sort of benefits are there to the gt and glanza over just strapping a hairdryer and piggyback ecu to a standard starlet and having it tuned properly?
obviously if you were to have some big power you would have trouble keeping thr fronts gripping so i would be looking at doing an awd conversion, any modifications to the chassis necessary i will do as i am a boilermaker. how hard is it getting your hands on an awd box?
also whats an average fuel consumption figure?
in my legnum i do 100km to about 20 litres of 98
cheers guys

You'll be very surprised with the power of the Starlets little pocket rockets!!

easiest way is to get the EP85 or 95 and convert it to a 4EFTE as they come with 4wd as standard!

ah thanks for a model, makes searching for the awd info im after a ton easier
other legnums are doing about mid 13s on the quater mile, and apparently a starlet does roughly 14-mid 14s yeh ?

Depends on the tune, mods, driver etc etc etc, Aarons done a 12.2 with some issues and Kon did an 11.5 pass I think it was both FWD.

Check out Gaz_ep85's garage therad mate he's got a nice blue 85'

25 psi far out, can he run it on low boost or is it only set up for 25?. i looked at the threads posted by Gaz but couldnt see any pictures.......
if i could get mid 12s to low 13s i would be happy with one

unfortunately i dont think i could tow my caravan with one, so i would buy it solely as a track car
