well i have updated this in a while, my car is almost done! its been a long time with alot of waiting for custom parts.
the drive shafts were the worst thing also it has four custom mounts and the front mount is a soild mount with a strenghtend crossmember.
any way i will be doing a huge wirte up of all the parts and everything that went in to the build with a lot of pictures too.
with abit of luck the power fc should be getting a final map today and im going on the 5 hour drive to pick her up
thanks, chris

hey this has'nt been up dated for a while so thaught i better keep yous up to date.
my car has had a few mods since : -
full custom exhaust system curtsey of powerflow
autobahn fmic with custom bumper
walbro 255
jam fcc
10mm quad core ht leads
iridium plugs
dizzy car and rotary arm
Magnetic Sump Plug
i baught a few other thing which wont be needed any more which are
greddy emange blue
sard adj fpr, which im both selling to a mate before anyone asks : P
well the basic plan for my car was to buy a wepr td04 with external wastegate and forged the spare engine i have in my shed witch in total was going to be a few grand to say the least.
i spoke to a mate who is working in a mr2 specialest garage near london and we cam up with a lil idea.
3sgte conversion.
thats the 2.0 turbo out of an mr2 for those who dont know
a rev 3 non the less, thats a extreemly reliable 245 bhp standard
and with a few extra mods using my fmic, exhaust system and my greddy profec e 01 could be at a healthy 300bhp
so we have spoke over the last week on the price and made a deal.
it is now booked in to go down on 3 weeks time and i am so excited about the whole thing.
to my knowledge it will be the second 3sgte starlet in the uk and im not sure how many are in the world
so any one want a 4efte and ep82 ecu? there up for grabs
so what do yous all think bout this conversion and my lil project
