My new build

[Geffconboy]

After 11 years of having my mini I decided to start build a nother one since Iv a spare shell. If a few mad idea's for it all will be revealed in time.

So this is the way I got the car

The 1275 lump out. Not using it for this build tho

Iv started the welding on it boot floor repair fitted

Small bit of progress today got it up on the spit inner and outer sill and door step cut out and ready for new panels

Got it sorted thanks

Big news today the doner car has landed 1.3 non turbo starlet allways wanted to do a conversion so I said I'd give it a go

[woody]

Is that the 1331cc twin cam fuel injected.
5 speed box I presume.
About 88 bhp.
If it all works out I'm sure it wouldn't be too hard to move on to the turbo version.(130 bhp).

There is a limit on the size of attachments but the quality is still good enough if you resize them. I usually open them in paint, crop the picture and save as a jpeg.

Ya that's the one if I can find a 6 speed box from a g6 corolla mite go with that didn't want to go turbo straight away there's a 5efe 1.5 Toyota engine non turbo same size will fit straight in if one comes up cheep after time I'd go with it there 115bhp standard

Some more work done inner sill fitted

Wing taken off small patch put in over the shock mount and over the air vent

Drivers wing taken off to get started on that side

Going treating all the under side of the car with this and inside the sills wings and as much as I can was told by lots of people that it was very good so there's only one way to find out

Good man Geoffrey,

I had a '99 1.3 Starlet a few years ago and it's a lively car with a sweet gearbox.

Keep the updates coming,

Billy

If you can find a jap import 4efe engine and its ecu they are 100bhp. Look for pink fuel injectors. 1500's are hard got nowadays. 6spd Corolla box has a name for being soft, I'd stick with standard 5 spd. Starlet GT turbo box, alloy end cover and 8 bolt diff, has a longer 1st gear and can also take Torsen type lsd out of 6spd Levin gearbox.
Looking forward to the build !

More progress got a corolla inlet manifold. Engine out of the starlet the the under side primed

[Geffconboy]

More updates had problems with photos but think I got them sorted all the welding is done on the back end passenger sill and door step is in






Made the jig of the subframe and cut the subframe and started the fitting up
