MR-2 Posted January 23, 2017 Author Share Posted January 23, 2017 Some floor, wings and door pictures. I have welded right floor corner few years ago, just temporaly for mot, didn't even painted it inside, and years goes on and nothing big haven't happened :/Doors are almost rust free, lucky me.Some rust on wings, but can be fixed, some small holes. I put those back, so can drive car somewhere without police stopping, looks almost normal car. Have to add front signal lamps temporaly too.And winter wheather back again, game over temporaly...

MR-2 Posted January 30, 2017 Author Share Posted January 30, 2017 Honda radiator lower pipe moved now, next have to do some fan plate or my friend maybe do it who welded that pipe also. About 30cm slim line fan maybe, price range is 30-100 euros, maybe not so important thing what fan to choose, more important is that plate, have to bend it over edges and put some foam seal between plate and rad. Also bought n/a EP91 18mm front arb, had to test it and see how near it goes over lower arms holes, maybe have to heat and bend it little bit, then heat treatment and sand plasting/powercoating. What I have heard, end links are not on vertical line and links must be modified, maybe this way can avoid it?This project is not going forward so fast, I'm depressed :/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MR-2 Posted February 1, 2017 Author Share Posted February 1, 2017 Got missing bushes and end links also, maybe gona keep those SLR bushes, but endlinks must buy new ones. Thought that arb was 18mm, but it was 20mm as seen from bushes. About four kg this shit, heavy. But maybe must thing to add, suspended Whiteline 24mm arb, because it is way too hard for light car. Couldn't find any cheap TRD arb, it would be between these two. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MR-2 Posted November 19, 2017 Author Share Posted November 19, 2017 (edited) Sad that Photobucket killed my picture links, nothing bigger haven't happened. Engine/transmission is out and some parts are taken out, gona clean all out and then body goes maybe sand blasting while I restoring all other parts. Just made blower plate for my modded radiator and one pipe is moved and few mounting treads are welded on to the top, so slow project, too many other projects going on at same time :/ Edited November 19, 2017 by MR-2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MR-2 Posted December 28, 2021 Author Share Posted December 28, 2021 I also bought few more EP71, so my "granny" project had to wait on storage place, wanted to do this light silver first, then granny, but now started to build yellow one after few years. I have done other projects also, so Starlets takes time. Silver one changed color to Toyota oxide bronze, silver was too boring. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MR-2 Posted February 23, 2022 Author Share Posted February 23, 2022 I have had this car on storage place several years, last autumn I took it to building garage back, plan was make it good again, made few cosmetic tricks to fool some drivers, it used to be more 90's/00's time tuning car and also builded that time to carburator 2E turbo, gona keep it that way, some old school 🤐 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MR-2 Posted February 23, 2022 Author Share Posted February 23, 2022 Used to look like this earlier, K-Sport coilovers, Sparco seats, Windows tinting, turbo hood and grille, tooked all away to get more sleeper look. Color is mk1 Yaris, used to be light gold earlier. Bought it little project, engine didn't work well and boosting only 0.2bar, solved problem and it was jammed wastegate and some leaking Weber DAT 32 carburator, now working well again, but wanted to restaurate motor better. Building car with my 17years old son, will be his first car, baybe likes or then not when seeing other kids new cars 😅 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
