This is where i'll need some advice Squares. The engine was recently installed, everything stock and i'm nowhere near impressed with it's performance. I know it's no rocket, but for a boosted car this thing should be performing better.
I was thinking of first starting with an aftermarket BOV, maybe turning up the boost safely, correct set of spark plugs, and a 2 1/2 inch exhaust system....
I'll be doing a search online for modification info, but if you guys have sites saved in your favorites that would save me some time....

This AE92 was bought with coil overs and i'm gonna change them to some drop springs and shocks the first chance I get...Also I'll be looking into Starlet front spindles with rotors and calipers as it has Levin rear disc brakes that are bigger than the front.
Any help in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.
Also i'll be soon attending the Toyo meets you post here,...to meet the pack nah.

well i aint no mech but i think since you recently installed the engine you should try simple stuff first like sum plugs(i use 7's irridium), clean out the trottle body, service injectors, cone filter an a boost controller. This should make a significant difference if you said the car is lazy.
Sum sites you can check are
www.toyotogtturbo.com or

Dem fellas real sick wit starlet but until u ready to do serious mods the stuff i said earlier will help out.

hmmmmmmm.. this sounds really strange, my own is stock and i havent even finished my exhaust and she's a big difference from any non-turbo car. try some of the stuff squares said and see if that makes a difference

[4eterc]

also i have a question about the axles, the guy who drop in my engine said the starlet axles would not work on my car. could someone tell me why?

right now i have the stock tercel axles but therre leaking something, someone told me it was not greased properly

[zryfle]

the starlet axcle will not work because there are three types of axcle in that model car .To use the starlet axcles u have to use the starlet spindles ,because of the outer cup is a smaller splines that why it will not work in the tercel spindles .I when through that already right now I am using starlet spindles ep91 glanza . Give a buzz if need any help locating the spindles .

[reddo_tuner]

zryfle,look for a speedometer cable for meh nah. the rolla men was saying that the AE80-110 should work on the tercel. Thanks!

[zryfle]

my speedo cable damaged and could get any so I when d village in elsocorrro
and bought a 2e cable right now that what I am using It fit but a little modification have to be done .The cable is HALF inch longer so I just nip off the the excess and it woking.The price I paid for it was $80 dollars.
