Clio 1.4rt Vs Toyota Starlet 1.3 Sportif

[Type_Mo]

What are they like compared to each other ?

also, what liter is the starlet GT Turbo ?

 

[Jonesy]

My m8 has a toyota starlet and its rapid, they are 1.3 16v turbos. His is running around 160 bhp and does 60 in around 6.5 secs.

for the other 1.3 sport i think they are 70 bhp and 13 secs to 60, so your clio might have a chance.

yeah mi mates got a tartlet gt turbo, not as fast as my valver but easily tunable and very light, about 800kg with full trim. His is pretty much standard at the moment tho!

He knows a guy with one running 280bhp ish, and 12 second 1/4 mile

 

[Type_Mo]

Well the Starlet GTT is a 1.3, anybody know stats for when its fully tuned ?


also, woudlanyone have any idea on insurance including track day cover ?

 

[Adams_16v]

fully tuned? as above, 280bhp 12 sec 1/4s

 

[Type_Mo]

Is that it ?

i thoguht it would be a bit more faster then that fully tuned :-(

the non-turbo ones certainly arnt fast

coming down the A470 from northwales to southwales i had a play with one in my old 306 1.4 8v...

the very fact that i cud "play" with it in my slow old pug shows u how slow it its! (pretty nutty driver mind, was taking blind left hand bends starting in the right hand lane then cutting into the left on single lane (either side) roads, which also had a double white line down the middle!)

its a frigging 1.3!!!!!!!!!!!! 280bhp on a 1.3 is like 180/190bhp per litre!

Just bored doing searches for starlets

Theres one running 11.8 in Australia (if thats your kinda thing) with standard internals. Another in New Zealand pushing 348 bhp at the wheels, still only a 1.3 which is quite impressive. But i wouldnt want to drive it in these conditions! For the record they* (*early ep82s) were 830 kg and the later ones (Quad headlamps) weigh 860 kg. The newer-shape Glanza Vs weigh 930 kg.

Mine with exhaust and filter ran around 122 bhp at the wheels and 140 lb ft if i can remember correctly. Ive fitted some more mods since then and il be testing it at the same place soon, for reference its similar performance to my friends stage 2 200sx with 260 bhp.

Kewl, u got links to them? Pics?

 

[Simon172]

heres the 11.8 second quarter car, running on standard internals and steam rollers by the looks of things!

Impressive those beasts Ive seen a vid of that 11 sec Starlet on one of the Nz High Octane vids very quick!

 

[Dan_mk1]

Run high 15s as standard.

 

[Simon172]

Ive never hung drawn and 1/4d mine, but i guess the success of these cars at a drag strip depends on whether or not they have the rare standard LSD.

 

[Mondial172]

Their like small Pulsars
