Basically the starlet is for sale and he will get more for it if he split it up and turned it back to standard. This motor has had 20+grand thrown at it easy.

Hmmm it will be a very nice ricer...

With huge custom brakes & one fantastic suspension setup...

Oh dont forget the roll cage...

It will make someone a very nice car...

And heres me putting together a 'hot' A- series for *maybe* i dunno, 100 hp at crank? Remind me never to speak to you Starlet peoples again... Ur embarissing me. I'll go off in the corner and cry now...

But really, I dont know what i'm playing with this crap for. And that motor actually looks good, too. alot of the ricers have plastic looking motors. That one is -Tough- How Big is that bloody wastegate?

Yee-Har!

Am I that tranparent?
That stage of my plans is still a long way off :roll:

The motor is beaut - small & flat, but not quite the right shape for a mini.
The gearbox is the problem - it's 1 1/2 times the size of the motor, and pretty darn heavy!
Try fitting that in your transmission tunnel - oh wait, you don't have one :)

I still think the GTIR conversion into mini would be the way to go!

You're bloody mad! :lol:

Anyway, you'd be taking a power CUT over your monster Starlet donk!
Standard GTiR "only" 204kW at the crank. Then you'd still have to work it to pump out your sort of numbers.
