Been a while but still here and still tinkering. Pretty much got the exterior of the car finished, wet sanded & polished the headlights and finally got hold of some seals for the taillights sourced and provided by Dan @ DJR imports 👍🏼. Also got the intercooler sat in position and mounted up ready for the motor to go in so I can get measurements for the charge pipes. Now I’m on the fence wether to leave the front bumper fully cut how I bought it or to fill in either side of the intercooler as I think it leaves the front exposed a bit too much.

Not really on with much atm due to work and covids knocking bits and bobs back. My wheels are just waiting on final stickers and then they’re good to go, white to gold whilst still retaining that OEM blue strip 😁.

Cheers boys, time to start building up over winter now, not much left to buy if I’m honest. fingers crossed she’s on the road in March

Genuine advan RG’s in the booth

Cheers lads, happy to have her home can start building the car back up now over winter ready for March time, hoping to see what more goodies I can collect along the way also👀

And she’s home! IMG_8509.MP4

Cheers rob, hopefully be able to leave you it with you for tuning sooner rather than later! @RW developments uk on instagram. or http://racework-developments.co.uk/

Hi mate not sure on the core price as RW developments sources them and then welds the tanks.

Busy day for the starlet! ITEC intercooler core, one of the top cores money can buy finished off @ RW Developments to suit, twin back door tanks welded on. These mean minimal intercooler piping is needed, this leads to less turbo lag hoping to provide me with a broader powerband on boost! and the final piece to the exterior puzzle. The one body part I have been after since I got the car in March 2018. Livesports spoiler

Popped again today to see the car now it’s been polished up, sideskirts also fitted and adjusted as the door was just catching when shutting on passenger side.

Cheers rob👍🏼

Popped to the unit to see the car today, fully painted now, just the sideskirts were coming out the booth as I arrived so hopefully pick up the car next week and bring her home. Still waiting on spoiler and the odd little bit but soon it’s time to start buttoning the car back together! maybe this lip is not everyone’s cup of tea, but the exterior wise the EP82 is a very limited car, let alone front end so I was happy to get something to make it look a bit more aggressive, and now I think it looks mega!

Not sure if I got a full set or just the one spring, will have to check when I next go to see the engine, but if it’s the one spring it’s either a 9 or 10 psi spring.

Coat on top of the sills to prevent any rust coming back also after a 3 month wait from TB developments my wastegate has finally arrived!

Thanks lads, Really starting to appreciate the car now, been nearly 2 years since I last drove it and I’m really starting to miss it, can’t believe I almost sold it not long after having it 😕
