  1. Haha i was there when this happened Lmao!!
  2. 110hp and its actually a 930cc not a 1ltr lol Lsd as standard 7.7 0-60 15.5 to do a 1/4 mile Decent little cars
  3. Any recaro rail can take nearly any recaro seat, the bolt pattern on the bottom of recaro seats stays the same no matter what seat it is.
  4. This things nice, loving all the carbon Are you running spacers with you speedlines as they seem to sit a lot flusher with the body work than mine?
  5. Not starlet ones but theres a couple of sets on ebay atm, a pair from a suziki ignis or similar and another set with a £99 starting bid. Get these and then find a set of rails (prob easier than the whole seats or make rails from what they come with and what you have
  6. 7age, carina avensis etc block and usually crank and rods i think with in this case a 4age 16v head. (Can use a 20v head if required) Porsche 944 cambelt iirc To rev to 10k that will have a custom crank along with the rest of the bottom end being forged hi comp stuff
  7. Sorry to hear its a shame its not as easy as buy the mounts drop it in do some wiring away you go! But it is the reason i chose to go this route, not many people are going to go to the lengths required so it will always be quite a special little car.
  8. All im guna say is, Fuck boost Mwhabaha
  9. Cable to the clocks from the gearbox? Clip on the back of the clocks usually breaks tbf
  10. Put simply, yes lol check out the alternative engine discussion i did a basic write up on whats involved. Have a gander of that and see if its put you off lol
  11. Cock!, search jim'll paint it on facebook
  12. Just seen one of my mates of facebook has liked this. Some of the scenarios are funny as! https://m.facebook.com/home.php?refid=9#!/JimllPaintIt?__user=611295153
  13. They look at mine n say 6k limit is it? Yeah around there 3/4's is 4500, ok then. Saves me having to rev it to 6k to pass haha
  14. That second scoob sounds just like some local honda's with there cheapy ebay manifolds haha
  15. Ill do it if she'll pay me to travel across the country lol
  16. Lovely car, would love one! Not a huge fan of the wheels (bit small maybe :s) but i suppose they are in time with the car Keep us up to date with it
  17. Ha i know this car! Toads old motor, was a good car before he sold it, then it got abused! Glad to see you're fixing it up he'll be glad to hear its finally gone to a good home
  18. I suppose i they wanted to, theres nothing stopping them now? These guys have done it to a normal road car so whats stopping you from removing the head from the likes of an evo and making a retro fit camless head. The only thing you would need is oil pump drive if its belt driven and a crank angle sensor for timing and ignition etc The valves would need a separate cpu but nothing mental And how would you get vtec with no cams? Lol Or are you saying? "vtec pffft, i rev to 20k bitch!!!" :Pb
  19. The hollow tube thing doesn't matter a jot, a strut brace under goes compression and extension. You try and compress a hollow tube, its not going to happen. The bolted ends i can understand but if its got l big enough bolts that can be done up tight enough and sturdy mounts It will be fine. Ie the Trd brace. I would say you'd get more flex from the thin folded sheet metal at either end of the Oem brace than some of the other ones with the triangle shaped mounting points. After all triangle are one of the strongest shapes going
  20. Yeah cant beat good old mechanical cars, might not be as efficient or what ever but simple for people like us to work on and a much more connected feel imo!
  21. Haha im feeling the same dude! I dont like the sound of electric driven cams, well i would never use it in an interference engine anyway!! Crazy this modern technology hey!
  22. They still have cams, probably contolled like the fiat multiair system, just had a quick read and they have a timing chain. But yeah size of an A4 peice of paper! Pretty impressive little engines it would appear
  23. Hmmm, do i need another one? Lol where u located?
