Celica or Cressida struts and brakes, both have approx 10" Vented brakes, Cressida's have beefier suspension however. In a RWD corolla (ill assume starlets are the same) you need RA/TA63 Celica bottom plates, so your stock ball joints fit, youll need starlet springs if you use cressida struts otherwise cressida ones rub on the strut towers. Brake lines will fit sweet. But your camber will probaly be up the shit giving it about 3-4degrees positive camber :| The steering stop mounts on starlet control arms may need moving too or youll get $&#$% all lock.
Your bias should be ok, and you may need to upgrade the master cylinder. Maybe a KE70 will fit?

Just a couple of ideas to think about, also take off caps lock and try some punctuation.
