Yep, the 1989 Toyota 4E- and 5E- engines have no crank case breather. Seeing as the 4E-FE series of engines were originally designed for 75hp and fuel economy. Then 135hp on the 4E-FTE turbo engine, I need all the help I can get to vent crank case pressure.Is that braided lines for a catch can ?
I had a crank oil seal leak with OE parts so it's the only solution which works well. I engine swapped the car from a Toyota Sera (mad rare car) which is a 1.5L (longer stroke) with higher lift cams and then forged the engine with SCAT rods and Wossner pistons. Easy swap as all the mounts are the same. Toyota over engineered all the stuff from the 90's.
I would grab a EP82 or EP91 Starlet whilst you can as the prices are going through the roof.

So what your saying is your getting ~400bhp from a 1.5l engine? in a car that must weigh little more than a shopping cart. love it.
have you considered meth?

Thanks
It's Rosso Mars Red. This was the colour and spec that I was ideally after.
That's not my house. It was just somewhere convenient to park-up the transporter and offload the car.
have you considered meth?
I think what he's doing already is more addictive and fun than meth.
And to think how people bang on about AMG getting over 400 from their 2.0L engine.. (or even Mitsubishi years before!)
What happened to the Sera engine donor btw? Those things as you say are rare and with those doors, rather cool!

That looks awesome and whoever lives in that house likes Citroen too much.

The couple next door to my mum have had matching Nissan Micras with matching plates my entire life. They get a new one each generation
I was thinking that. Very kind.I love how he took the trouble to blank his plates out but left them alone for the random people whose house he parked it outside
Gave you a followI'm quite active on instagram @edd90k
acme is just salty because he replaced his "unreliable" toyota with a "reliable" volvo that hasn't been on the road for longer than 2 hours and he has nothing to post on instagram now
Speaking of 'new' cars, I'm torn between a Chaser and M135i, my heart says Chaser but my brain says M135i... I sold my 330, and no longer have the S15 so it's time for a new replacement.

Chaser of course
they're epic cars and 0 depreciation too !Hard to find something decent and already lost a few auctions even though I bid more than I wanted to in the first place...Chaser of course
My only concern is that'll be a boat to drive, I would love to test drive one with 400-450bhp -that's what I would be aiming for powerwise.
There's a couple in a town near me who get brand new matching yellow Jukes every year.
They should be shot.
