Aright heres the deal... i'm planning on purchasing the last gen tercel and i wanted to know if the starlet front end would fit right in (hood, bumper, side panels) and if i do the 4efte swap, should i expect to beat all the lil hondas riding around town?

No and no. The Starlet is just different enough where the body panels won't boly "right up" and a stock 4efte will barely keep up with a modified D series Honda motor, not to mention anything better. The 4efte will give you the most bang for your buck though.

Many Civics have Integra engines stuck in them, I know of some with Prelude engines in them. If you want to keep up with those kids you might want to start with a 4A-GE 20V, and work from there.
