For sale: Toyota starlet gt turbo mk3
Item Condition:
Price and price conditions: 2600
Extra Info: Tax: 30th June 2014
MOT: 5th April 2015
Mileage: 68k (2500 on new engine)
Well, the time has come to sell my starlet. The intention was to sell it after the summer, but the conrod bearings went at the beginning of May and it has been parked up since & a new car purchased means it’s up for sale now. Since I have owned the car, a full forged rebuild has been completed, as well as td04 conversion and re-mapped emu.
The car its self was garaged for 5 years whilst being rebuilt most of the parts were fitted at the same time. Since I have owned it (2009), the car has only roughly covered 2500 miles over 5 years, with 1000 of those miles as a result of running the engine in.

Yokohama parade spec 2 tyres all round
Whiteline panhard rod
Rear Cusco strut brace
Standard front strut brace

The car handles incredibly. I reduced the hardness of the suspension because it was too brutal, but the cornering ability is unreal. Boost comes in at 4000rpm and pulls hard all the way to redline. Because the car was road mapped, it is hard to say what bhp figure the car is producing but I estimate at least 240bhp. The car would benefit from a diff of some kind and possibly and oil cooler and I would say that it would be pretty much sorted performance wise after that.
Every car has its bad points so here are the current issues;
Small bearings need replaced. I was quoted 2-3 hours labour costs plus the price of the bearings, so it is feasible to repair the engine for £300-£400 with all other parts mechanically sound.
Body work has a few scuffs and stone chips. The bonnet has a number of stone chips and the rear spoiler could do with a respray. The driver door was replaced by the garage which has carried out all the work on the car due to a car that was parked in their yard rolling into and denting the door. The gt turbo on the driver side door is black, whilst the gt turbo on the passenger side is grey as a result of the door change.
The passenger side cv joint needs replaced, but I have a new driveshaft with cv joint that will come with the car.
I am sure I’ve forgotten some spec as the amount of receipts and bills I have are quite comprehensive. The labour costs alone just to rebuild the engine and fit all the above parts totals over £4k so no expense has been spared maintaining the car, but l I can’t justify spending any more money on it. I have the original starlet owner’s manuals which are in good condition and rare.
I have a number of parts that I didn’t get round to fitting to the car that will come with the sale of the car, including front anti-roll bar, cusco bmcs, spare head, rare mk1 rear boot with light up gt panel and oil pressure & temp gauges to name but a few.
I have a new car that is more economical, as well as the bearing issue, hence the sale. If anyone is in doubt as to the quality or legitimacy of work carried out, I can provide the number for my mechanic who knows this car inside out and has carried out the running in procedure.
