I think you could repair mine easy enough if you had the time, but alot of the parts are being moved over to the ep70, in paricular the engine and coilovers. I am sure someone would have some standard suspension lieing around they could donate though It could be repaired easily enough through, just needs a front wing.

After JAE i had heard that a few of you were talking about making a club starlet pickup style truck, chop top (if i read correctly). I thought it would be a good idea as a club owned vehicle for the shows and stuff. I know loads of people have got loads of stock starlet parts lieing around in their garages/sheds and i think you could easily make up a good project car from donations. I for one have got loads of stuff spare. I was toying of the idea of donating the EP82 shell to the club so you could start building it. What you think?

ha ha yes or course they will, picture was to illustrate the coloured wires.

More progress Took the dash out of my EP82 GT tonight to expose the cars loom which i need to unplug for the inside part and plug in my custom ep82 loom I wired up the other day. With any luck when i turn the key on the custom loom it should start the car. If it does then i have just jumped a huge hurdle and got the electrical side figured out and i can go ahead moving it into the ep70 ready for the engine. I'll be testing it tomorrow when there is more light. A little vid of me work!! http://s422.photobucket.com/albums/pp310/m...t=VIDEO0049.mp4 Decided I am gonna start doing video

Doesnt sound like an imobilizer, it should only kill the ignition not the whole cars electrics. Do the head lights work when you turn them on to check the battery? After that i would check the battery in the key fob, then if your still having no luck, turn your focus to your fueses in the dash and then the engine bay. That should be a good start for you to fault diagnose it

If you ever convert yours series70boy then this should make it a doddle for you

I wont have the loom ready for about a week or so yet, i am in the middle of testing out the loom i have for the ep70 to check to see if the wiring is correct. (I currently have two looms!) One is working on the car now which is my test bed, while the other one im rewiring to test to see if its correct. If its any sooner i will give you a bell. Oil cooler kit is going into my EP70

Sorry dude but i need it for the ep70, i cant use the internal fuel tank as its not baffled in the EP70 and also it doesnt fit the EP82 fuel pump, so im using it for the ep70.

Did it work out a worthwhile buy for the evenings, any parties in there in the night ha ha! Oh and did you geni work fine too

Ok so since the GT has got a wallop at castle combe, its now 100% on for the conversion, so got cracking today with the electrics. Me and my electrical expert mate Leon decided on a double loom combination so the EP70 would keep its original loom to power everything in the car, but the EP82 loom would also go in to power the engine and management. This gave us the problem on how to power the ignition for both looms as it would mean we would need two keys! A bit of digging around on the internet gave us the ignition wiring diagrams for both cars and we have now linked the EP82 loom into the

Fair well GT this is the end of this build thread and the car is now being broken for the EP70, if you need any parts its all being except the engine, gearbox and shafts/hubs. You did me proud!! Broken brake line ended the car at castle combe, still drives fine but took heavy cosmetic damage EP70 here we come! -
James: I am afraid the bonnet is fooked, its taken heavy damage to the front right corner, gutted about that as i spent bloody ages fitting those catches to it and it was a nice bonnet!
-
Yeah that duct tape saved me, i still cant believe i could drive it home. I had to repair the brake line pull all the panels out, reattach the front bumper lol and loads of duct tape to hold it together. Got me home though!!
-
Gingdust: Wow did you see it happen, i wouldn't even like to think how fast we were going we must have been approaching that bend doing at least 80mph, i slammed on as usual to turn in, the car braked hard as usual for about half a second, then i felt a pop on the brake pedal and it went straight to the floor. We were still going WAY to fast for the corner all i had left was the hand brake. I bet you were wondering why i had the car sideways before i was even in the turn lol!! I thought i had caught it at one point and we were gonna get around the corner, but then the car hit the grass an

Whats annoying is that i set the camera recording while i was going around and i was like yes i got it on video!! but turns out the pissin camera stopped recording after 7 secs of me starting it, sigh, no memory left!! Gutted, i was more pissed off i didnt get it on video that anything else, got a new brake line made up luckily at the track, fitted it, bled the brakes and i was off home. If anyone has any vids of me on track send them to me, im dieing to see it going around It was the fastest its ever been!!

Hit the wall at castle combe today, had total brake failure I had made the mistake of putting the braided line on the wrong side of the suspension. It rubbed through the wheel eventually and below was the result. Car was going like a legend on track and the brakes were bloody amazing. if you thought i braked late before you should of seen it today!! Brilliant. Car is still straight and drives ok, but lucky to get away with it, going into the corner at 70mph with no brakes was scary, used the hand brake to drift part of it off and then whacked into the wall at a 45degree angle. Lucky i mana
