1986 Corolla Levin with a Turbo 4A-GZE
This 1986 Toyota Corolla Levin came from the factory with a 1.6 L 4A-GE inline-four. At some point that was swapped for a turbocharged 1.6 L 4A-GZE inline-four making 190-200 horsepower. The motor features a Garrett T3 turbocharger, HKS blow-off valve, and Kakimoto Racing exhaust. The five-speed manual transmission uses a OS Giken clutch and sends power to a OS Giken limited-slip differential. The exterior features a N2 widebody, D.Speed carbon fiber hood, and SSR Longchamp wheels.

A few years ago, I saw this little Finnish Toyota Starlet run at the Mt. Washington hillclimb. I don’t think my ears have stopped ringing.

I loved the car so much that I still check up on it every so often, making a note to check in on Mikko Kataja and his Starlet. Here he is at Mt. Washington back in 2017:
That is a tight, tight little one-and-a-quarter lane road, and this Starlet makes it look like a highway. It doesn’t exactly hide the bumps, though. That is a rough, rough course, and I don’t know how Kataja made it out of the car with all of his teeth intact.
