Jay_199 Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 Hey, So this is My 1985 4 door Starlet its name is Peter after "Peter Pan" I've owned it since around April 2015, Always wanted one since I was 16 and its been a love/hate relationship since... If anyone has any information on this car I'd love to hear it!!! (MA3855) So yeah I bought it then blew the head gasket the next day, great start right haha. So water was all though the oil and everything, So instead of just pulling apart and cleaning it out thought I may as well replace what I could an slam a lumpy cam into it for the nice idle and lil extra power its still pretty good on gas I've even had it up to around 200kph its an epic lil car for a 1.3L... So yeah thought I'd make this to keep track of what I've done to it and what it use to look like etc What I've done so far: Pic of engine before taking apart engine Engine: 2015 (around 244KM's) -Replaced Radiator with an P10 one. -New Water Pump. -Head Gasket (Last done October) -Lumpy Cam (Stage 4 or 5 not 100% sure) -Head Skimmed running on 95/98 -Thermostat -Electric Fan Installed -Tidy up Engine bay, Painted rocker cover and Manifold.
