If you look in the back ground of the pictures on my build thread you'll see my brothers 240 Volvo estate. Late turbo red block from a 940 (2.3 turbo 8 valve with forged internals as standard), later M90 gearbox with custom gear linkages, LSD from a 740 with locking function, head ported and polished and is currently building a better turbo for it as the £150 ebay special turbo he had on there has finally given in to a year of 22 psi of boost. So now making the turbo from a cosworth turbo with a nissan compressor housing which is going to be machined to fit a Garrett GT38 wheel. Also he just p

Update over the last couple of weeks, so the week before fastshow I had my own club monthly meet so had cleaned polished and waxed the car. Then caught this photo: Now time for that exhaust to be done. done it Thrusday but then adjusted by adding back in the a bit of the standard exhaust that is still straight through just to quiet it a little as I don't like pissing the neighbors off. Can see the difference in standard to the modded one. To get the tip how I wanted I had the glanza bumper to make it all Adding in the straight through bit from the standard exhaust -
I would email Japfest, they'll be the best to deal with the problem. Pete

Their from the sw20 mr2 so the years around the 90s. I had spare set of starlet rails from my white sr which I was breaking at the time. I had cut the mounts off the mr2 seats and the rails are the same width. As I had the shell of the sr I had stripped the interior so I could bolt the seat mounts in place then weld the rails to the mounts. If you look in the first post of this thread I have a link to my second starlet build which has the pictures of it all. -

Bit late but update time! So put my MR2 seats in this one. However, I changed how the seat belt buckle is mounted to make the belt more comfortable and stop it scraping the centre trim. I straightened the bracket out, marked it out drilled holes and cut the excess off. I got rid of the mounting brackets where the bracket use to go and then painted to stop it rusting. -

I was offered 690 for mine but I kept the car and they only took 50 quid off, so I still got 640 and the car with 700 quid worth of wheels suspension and few other bits -
Black grill really sets this off
