stevie82 Posted April 13, 2020 Author Share Posted April 13, 2020 Fitted a couple of bits I’ve been waiting on, mr2 steering wheel completely plug and play 😀, glanza footrest and some new centre cap gel badges, oh and removed the Fensport stickers also as per request 😂 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pikey009 Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 Ah mate it does look better without them but it’s your car. Cars looking lovely, never considered that wheel. I was really lucky when converting the sr interior and managed to get a full 98 spec in really good condition. God knows why they didn’t do it from the factory and whack a 1.5 under the bonnet Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Zemerz Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 Brilliant build mate. I see you pulled the arse out on a Celette bed, did you build all the brackets up for that?? I thought at first you're probs a fitter but I reckon you're a beater now hahaha Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Michaelh Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 Hi, car looks really good and great to see what you have done. I have just bought a 1.3 Sportif . I don’t know much about the cars but am I right in thinking mechanically there isn’t much difference between the Sportif and SR. could you tell me what springs and dampers you have on your car as I will be using mine at my local Hillclimb. Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks Power wise all uk spec ep91 are the same mate, I’m using kyb struts and top mounts with tein s springs, not too low and doesn’t sacrifice ride comfort whilst I find the setup is compliant and a lot cheaper than coilovers, thanks for the comments Quote Link to post Share on other sites
