Just putting this up to keep track of things. Mate bought an old EA rally car last week after pining for an AU. Essentially he knew this one was out there, rang the owner and did a deal. It's an EA, converted to V8 mustang, 5 speed, all roll cage certed etc. Picked her up Sat morning in gay old Gore and drove it onto trailer... And a snug enough fit for the drive home... First mission was a good hot steam clean inside and out, lichen on the body and lots of oil on the engine, it is a detuned 86 5.0 donk, that somehow manages to strangle itself to give 150kW... Bogan VB bought specially for the occasion, did like the old badge... And all clean, pouring water out the speed holes. A new paint scheme will be forthcoming...

Discuss here - //oldschool.co.nz/index.php?/topic/48697-blizzos-83-kp-starlet-rally-car/ Right boes, a dream of mine over the last few years of lurking in the corner of my father in laws rally career has finally come true. Yesterday I took ownership of am 83 Kp rally car. I have been wanting to get on the gravel for a while, and have had a go co driving for my father in law in his escort. Now its time to get into the hot seat myself. He gave me a bit of cash towards this starlet under the priviso that he sits in the co pilot seat and teaches me with the occasional drive, pretty good deal IMO. So dont get excited, this thing isnt that flash, hasn't been used in about 6 years and needs a fair bit of TLC, but thats all good fun anyway. good bits - - "worked" 4k, still unsure how worked, has 45mm sidedraught and quite a high duration cam, still waiting to hear from the bloke who built it for more info. - rego on hold - MSNZ hologated cage, i just need to finish getting my R2 license and get authority card in my name. - different struts with good stiff rate springs bad bits - -a fair bit of bog hidden rust - a bit gutless ATM, gunna investigate a few things (buggered mech fuel pump) and poss pull head off - a ghey colour scheme and average paint - VERY FUCKED DOORS (bottoms are very rusty) photos! bad bits - what it used to look like - what it could look like-

Hi all, bout time i posted what i've been fiddling with for the past 4 months or so. Its a 1980 ex lancer gsl 1600 auto, stripped and converted to 4g63 twin cam 5 speed, alas no turbo yet, but i'm going to build a new turbo motor when the N/A motor dies (will be soon, fuel in the oil and such like) anyhow.
