Nice find mate. Did anyone else notice the cut out headlight?

Gave me some ideas for bracing my turbo as well. :)

and bracing the turbo looks like a good idea that i never seen on an EP.

since we're on the track setup topic...is there anyone who can shed some detailed light on seam welding (preferably starlet specific)

Yes i kno i can google etc however just would be helpful if there is starlet specific info..i havent checked if that guy has notes about it since its in Japanese

Nice find. If things continue as they are it looks like it'll be an awesome little Glanza when it is finished. Those clever ideas like the turbo bracing are pretty smart too, perhaps a bit ott but I guess if you can do it why not :D

good way to support the manifold! maybe it will be less likely to crack :)

Some great work in there, not sure about the job he did on that ACIS manifold but lol.

Could anyone work out why there was an oil pipe from the right hand front of the block to the sump? All I can think of is he has removed the stock oil pressure switch and used it as a return to the sump, but I dont know why you would do that rather than just blank it off? Maybe its to improve the 5E oil pressure problem, it also mentioned RB26 on the writing beside the oil pressure relief valve photo, a few mysteries in there.
