Hi, i have two Starlets 1000cc, (one EP70 & EP80) both exist during 1991, you need to know if your car is the EP70 or the EP80, take a look at the VIN, for the EP70 i have the manual: Ignition Timing point 5º BTDC at max 950RPM +-100RPM for the EP70
Ignition Timing point 10º BTDC at max 900RPM for the EP80 +-100RPM (told by a toyota dealer)
I hope this can help you.
regards

Sorry, the dealer call me again saying he was wrong, for EP70/EP80 models, engines P52 1000cc 12V the ignition timing point for europe its the same for both cars:
5º BTDC at max 950RPM +-100RPM
