Lanxter,

What would you like to know?

I am onto my third Starlet turbo conversion at the moment.

Its really not that difficult as conversions go.

Oooh, is it cheaper/more cost effective to get the Starlet lump?

I'd thought about it before 8)

Pretty much cheap as chips here in Oz.

Most of the guys buy a whole front cut and use everything off that.

Update - done 3 x Starlets and 2 x Suzuki G13B's now!

Cheers,
Tricky
