My business partner is shipping a AE111 retired race car... I was thinking of doing the same for the road course. I was thinking other than a Trueno or Levin ... What other front wheel drive car did Toyota make that has alot of aftermarket support ??? My business partners got their Race car for $8,000.00 USD shipped.

I would definitly like it to be N/A ... something I just push to the limits around the corners... AAAHHH!!! its just a thought... It sooo cheap to get one AE101 retired race goes for $4000.00 Shipped... This is from Hong Kong. Tell me what you guys think ???

do it:thumbup:
are any of us going to say dont do it? :D
Do It!!!:thumbup:
why NA?


i'd go for an older caldina/all-trac celi
don't do it:eek: wtf? how the hell did "don't" get in there? anyway do it do it:D
I know ... I want to because of the price but ... I was thinking of either going with a Corolla Trueno Ae111 or a EP92 Starlet
ahh well, there is no contest for me, a Starlet especially the EP92 is a great way to go, however i am unsure of aftermarket parts for the 4E-FTE engine....the Trueno AE111 may be more practical for your idea of pushing the N/A engine to the limits...that is the 20v 4AGE in those correct? you can go nuts with all kinds of "all motor" upgrades on that, but you probly already know that :)

i am saving up as we speak to make my Starlet dream a reality within the next 2 years :D

AE111 is great n/a car black top 20valve but I would have to swap out the 6speed for a 5speed because their is not after market support for the 6speed... As in gearing wise...

Trueno! Trueno! Trueno! And make it right hand drive!
dude... Trueno AE111 not the AE86... calm down ... I was going to ask you if you wanted to go halfers with me ... Have our own race car and join Maxwells, Joseph and Jacky's race team
Dude i want in lol!!
Allen i will stalk you if you get a starlet with justin...;)

black top 20v are very nice, i considered either that or a silver top for my MR2 swap, but wanted one car to be boosted somehow, so its 4AGZE all the way for me :)

if this whole unemployment thing hadn't hit so hard i was halfway to saving up for a starlet to have it imported & completely legalized which is more expensive, but i want it for a regular driver as well as track/auto-x :D

it would be super cool for ya'll to race either a starlet or trueno though then you would really be mad tyte jdm yo! :p:
