ok...so its clearly possible...anyone know how to do it? didnt know there were AWD starlets...the 3sgte is too big i think...2.0L turbo...are they even legal in a mini? thought there was some <=20% increase in engine size for conversions rule...not sure though...pretty sweet engine though :P probably wouldnt fit in a roundie either :P the 4efte is atleast a close fit :P

and:

The AWD starlet models are named EP85 and EP95......as opposed to EP82 and EP91 for those that are going to do a search......
they didnt come out with a 4efte though....just a regular 4efe....1332cc twincam, non turbo.
They would only be found in import wreckers though.....never sold in australia.

Hi Jeremy,

Does the EP82 engine fit on the EP85 box??

If so, all we need to find is an EP85 box right??

Regards,
Andy
