what size tyre? what et are you after?

clutched> jerico, top loader with liberty gearset
clutchless> liberty, g force, lenco.

all depends on if you are running small tyre and may need to pedal the car or a big big tyre!!

Thats right, it comes down to how fast you want to go and how much you wanna spend.

Since it's a Starlet, have a look at all the Peurto Rican rotary drag cars, almost all of them are starlets, including the quickest in the world, "La Atrevida", which has a Liberty 5 speed and run 7.38sec
