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. is it me or is something terribly wrong here? the guy says his fuel was too rich but i call bs. it was a turbo but it was putting the same hp as my car (st)
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...

Yeap, that is a GLANZA to be more precise. There are quite a few of those in my country. Some of them with T3 and T4 and can beat the crap out of any Honda out there. Heck some of them beat the crap out of the GT4s. I have seen a couple of them doing high 11s on the quarter mile. I consider it the most bad ass car in its category. Very reliable car for mods.
