    Default sr-kp starlet

    a few people asking about this so i might aswell stick up a build thread,,
    bought this as a run about in 07 , didnt intend on doing much with it but it came with the trd arch kit(never mind the shitty spoiler), tried it on one day and it all started from there,


    started stripping it down with the intention of fitting a 4age and AE rear axle, to cut a long story short the floor had lots of holes and the 4age plan went out the window,, had a few ca18s lying around so stuck one in instead, also fitted a polybushed early spec ae86 axle at this point,,


    floor had lots of 1e size holes an rather than mess about patching them all i got a bit excited one day with the grinder and cut the whole thing out


    sent it off for blasting and was pretty happy with what i had left,, a few small holes here and there but nothing too serious


    got rid of bootfloor too


    started making a tunnel


    car lay for about over a year then as i had a load of other projects and customer cars to do aswell as a season of udc,, as the year went on my 180 was becoming a potential doner,, 5years of road driving/ streeto/ some pd, mondello track days and 4 seasons of udc had taken its toll on the bodywork and chassis legs and it was finally time to park her up


    after the 180 was broke i got busy at the starlet, modifying the rear end for the 180sx subframe and a load of fabrication work at the floor , tunnel, cage boxes ect
