Choices for you :

1. Charade Detomaso 1.6 N/A
No issues with JPJ, plug n play including the wiring, dashboard, engine mounts, engine. Fuel consumption not too bad if you drive decently

2. Toyota Starlet 4efte 1.3 TURBO
Mountings have to be nice. Wiring all can be matched but not plug n play. Good value for money. Power is there. Fuel consumption better than option 1 if driven off boost

3. Espri 1.3 EFI engine... no point

4. Charade gtti 1.0 turbo - doesnt fit. mountings dont match at all

5. Myvi engine / YRV 1.3turbo - mounting and wiring all hard to match. waste of money

6. Overhaul ur engnine - waste of money.

7. Bolt on turbo... not available for ur carburetor engine. However, the g11 charade model has a Carb Turbo. And not many people in the country actually know how to tune the carb to the turbo. This is suicidal
So your best bet will be option 1 or 2.

As for option 1, it'll be cheaper to convert. And the car is much more driveable, and comfortable

Option 2.. powah

1.0 - 1.6 hard to pass JPJ, best is to get the 4e-fte, sure can pass, and halfcut quite cheap

putting an evo in a wira cant endorse is definitely not bullshit because it's written in black and white on the JPJ site that its not allowed to do so. It is also written that you can go beyond 30% for endorsement on non proton wira/satria/waja cars. Again, people saying not being able to do so is pure bullshit. I would appreciate if someone actually tried and failed and come tell me in the face. lol

Conclusion? They just listen to rubbish people telling rubbish stories before going to te jpj portal and read themselves

wooo....don't be hyped up, nobody is suggesting it can't be done, it's just a bit harder, it's not like the good ol' days anymore, duit kopi is getting more expensive. seriously even 1.2 datsun 120y can plunk in SR20 and can pass, but the amount needed for under table is quite huge. and also it depends which part of town u go check in puspakom, some places easier, but some is almost impossible

Hi. I am looking to get half cut engine to replace my stock 1.0 Espri engine. However so far all the half cut available is AT, while my car is MT. Would this be a straightforward swap transmission or is it not possible/complicated?

if u change back to stock engine the gearbox will be plug and play. but i wouldn't suggest u change back to stock engine, might as well get a 4e-fte (the starlet turbo 1.3) because ur car will be spending time at the workshop, might as well do it properly, although the halfcut will be a bit more expensive than the stock engine, but the difference is far far greater
