crawleysam Posted January 15, 2018 Posted January 15, 2018 Purchased a nice low mileage EP81 was almost immaculate until I parked it at work and the car park crows hosted an episode of strictly come dancing on my roof. Nevertheless, still in very good condition! Started on fitting some parts I had lying around, have got more to fit just haven't had the time unfortunately. Excuse the utterly dreadful wheel trims, original hub caps have been put back on now. Could do with a clean but again not had the time. The parts I've fitted so far are a momo steering wheel and boss, replacing the old ships wheel As well as this some later spec GT Turbo rear lights And a OEM front strut brace Test fitted some wheels I have which will get fitted when I get some new tyres, as well as some lower springs I have in the shed.

Suspension, wheels and tyres are next on the agenda, after that some gt turbo brakes, disc conversion at rear and some more handling modifications! I have another ep81 I need to put back on the road so I can sell as well On 1/16/2018, 3:53:17, jiggaman_16 said: Painted rocker cover & an engine wash & she'll look mint mate Got a nice shiny rocker ready to go on soon!

crawleysam Posted January 28, 2018 Author Posted January 28, 2018 Fitted a hypersports short shifter today, feels great and really changes the feel of the shifter and improves it greatly, especially seeing as I have a gear extension on which does slacken the gear changes somewhat. Was meant to be fitting some solid linkage bearings at the same time but think I might have thrown out the bearings so will have to purchase some more. Hopefully get some tyres after payday and get my alloys on! Quote
SKINY Posted January 28, 2018 Posted January 28, 2018 I fitted the same short shifter and find it a bit of a nuisance getting into 1st at times, have to put it towards 2nd then 1st Quote
