4WD Starlet?

[Jules-B]

hi all
have been reading about the 4wd conversions people are doing to the gts...now would it be possible to take the running gear from the 4wd and put it on a glanza?

i know its possible but would it be lots and lots of work?

You will need to SERIOUSLY modify the floor of your EP91 to accomodate the driveshaft, fuel tank and rear transfer box of the EP95. Here's a comparison of the difference in the central tunnel - this is an EP82 centre mat compared to an EP85 one:

Not saying it's impossible but you are entering a different level of modification.

listen mate um already on the case with a glanza 4wd, just on the quiet. my ep95 will be here in about 8 weeks. hopefully ready and setup for the begining of the new year or latest february that includes all mods.

ITS THE 4WD REVOLUTION BABY....YEA!!!!

no one is converting 2wd to 4wd, its the 4wd ep85 that has had an engine converted to a 4efte.
i think if u wanted to make a normal 2wd to 4wd, u will need a very deep pocket, and might as well buy an evo

well thats wat um doing. um putting all the trd ep91 features directly on to the ep95 chasis of a 3 door. will be class when finish though

is the ep95 as solid a drivetrain as the sport selection ep82 tho?

would it be possible to do a body swap of a 91 onto a sport selection chassis?
