 Something just caught my eye when I was surfing the net the other day. Toyota Paseos. In the US, these little light daily driven FWD compact cars are known to save ALOT of gas. No power potential unless you are doing a swap. They look kinda neat too and costs no more than $3000. But in the UK, it's a different story. I came across these.    Are these 4A or 3S swapped? Makes me want to have one.

I love paseos.
In french "paseo" (pas assez haut) litteraly means "not enough high". Which is totally true if you’ve ever sat in the back seat! ahaha! Everyone knows that! And another small fact, the MR2 in france is called the MR. Because MR2 in french roughly translate in MR-DEUX (merdeux). Litteraly means "****ty" in french.

I believe it was C3L1CA who was selling it. I don't recall who it was. -------------------- |

ive always liked the paseo. Stupidly quick with a 4A or a 5A swap. Theres a guy here in toronto with a 4A swap and the turbo off the 5a motor, custom widebody and RSX tail lights. Hes got no interior right now cuz hes gettin one of thouse Vibrant Performance Fiberglass dash kits for it and gettin a 6 point cage in it. Stupidly quick car.

Paseo/Tercels are cars with plenty of potential.. little to none of the world really knows about it tho =]
They rock the 1.3L 4EFTE, or turbo the 1.5L 5EFE/5EFHE Crazy ones like the high revs of the 4AGE We have mostly tuned Tercels in the US.. but there are Paseos that do it to. Back-Yard-Productions in South Florida created an infestation of Turbo Tercels and their pride and joy.. a 86 Hatch Tercel with a 400+HP 4AGTE Seen a gutted Seo, [1900lb] + 4AGE 20Valve [BT] = SHIET! |
