here in charlotte its known that there will be something poppin on a nice saturday night. last weekend was no different except it was a dyno night. there were alot of nice cars out there! some guy from HIN brought his black emotion nissan z out and there were a couple supras...but what caught my atteniton was a little grey trecel. i go over to one of the dyno operators and ask what engine it is, he says something about a 4e and its a starlett engine swap from japan...uh okay...never heard of a starlett. but anyway, he completes the dyno test and only 110 hp pops up the guy looked pretty disappointed and i was stupified.
![]() ![]() someone please clarify what a starlett engine is because i would expect more out of an engine thats turboed. now i want to race him....for sh!!ts and giggles... This post has been edited by easternpiro1: Aug 29, 2005 - 12:17 PM -------------------- |

This idea is similar to the idea that Honda tuners have when gutting a CRX and swapping in a small high output Honda motor in it. Lightweight + Decent Power = A pretty quick little car
