"k" Transmissions
ok, the '81-'82 starlet transmissions i've been using have been stamped "k51" or "K52" the genuine efi 4ke '83 trans is stamped "k61" the rpm drop between each gear on the k61 is identical in each gear incl. 5th; does this make it a trd trans? the rpm drop was the same in 1st and 2nd in the others, but 3rd-4th was WIDE and 5th was almost non-existant (300rpm?) all this was while running 4.10 rear gears and 195/70/13 tIres. so what do you think?

Starter Motor Issues
i had this prob with daisy when i first went with the starlet drivetrain; the starter wouldnt engage, then wouldnt release. got a n.o.s. one off ebay, no improvement, turned out they're different, i think the flywheel is different. put a starlet starter in, no probs
