Mark Edwards Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 Well guys, i've taken my time posting pics of it, but here it is. My 97' sportif bought from another member (Earl) back in december. Came with the SR clocks, lowered and a different custom backbox. Since then i've added the tte spoiler (cheers Idrees), clear lenses, air filter (which i'll be changing again), corolla manifold and the motec M4 Pro ecu. And the project for today, removing the side strips. Got one side done, but still need to sort the other side later or tomorrow.Opinions welcome. Quote
rob_bower Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 looks good mate i like it im not a huge fan of the wheels but thats just personel preff!!! rest of it looks really nice and tidy Quote
Idrees Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 Shes mint!! Better without the door strips for sure!Colour coding the mirrors and handles would be a nice touch! Quote

Thanks mate, didn't take too long to do that side once i'd got into it, so hopefully the other side will clean up quick enough too.Might well colour code the mirrors and handles after seeing yours done. Want to spray the grey plastic of the indicators chrome too at some point. Quote
Mikey Jay Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 Looking good, does look tidy without the rubbing strip thingy, also makes it match the front and rear bumper better too What air filter you planning on changing to? Quote
Mark Edwards Posted March 31, 2007 Author Posted March 31, 2007 Looking good, does look tidy without the rubbing strip thingy, also makes it match the front and rear bumper better too What air filter you planning on changing to?Really not sure yet. Haven't decided whether to relocate that one down into the front bumper area or go for a TRD panel in the original airbox. Quote
Sparky Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 Very nice mate and very white Colourcoding the mirrors and handles will finish it of nicely Quote
Idrees Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 TRD panel in the original airbox.Thats what i'm doing! Quote
Mark Edwards Posted March 31, 2007 Author Posted March 31, 2007 Thats what i'm doing!I do think it looks a lot neater. Probably will be going this route i reckon. Quote
Idrees Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 I need a standard airbox first, which James aka Bourkey will hopefully sort me out with tomorrow! Quote

Mark Edwards Posted April 1, 2007 Author Posted April 1, 2007 Well that's both sides cleaned up now after removing the strips, looks much better i reckon. Need to change the exhaust next i think as it's a bit too loud for my liking, must be my age, lol. Quote
Mark Edwards Posted April 1, 2007 Author Posted April 1, 2007 Got any pics of your current exhaust!?No but i can take one. You want to swap your tte one?? Quote
Mark Edwards Posted April 1, 2007 Author Posted April 1, 2007 Here you go, nice, but a bit much for me......and my 7 month old daughter doesn't appreciate it much, lol. Quote
Idrees Posted April 1, 2007 Posted April 1, 2007 Lol i see!Mines abit too loud for me too But i can sort that later! Quote
Starlet Nath Posted April 1, 2007 Posted April 1, 2007 Looks good matey,Have you mapped it yourself?Was it really worth the £900? Have you seen lots of benefits?Did you have to buy a load of sensors as well?Are you planning to go down the turbo route? Quote
llawgoch Posted April 1, 2007 Posted April 1, 2007 how much power is it putting out?put a 4 branch manifold onit and a decent exhaust aswell Quote
Sparky Posted April 2, 2007 Posted April 2, 2007 how much power is it putting out?put a 4 branch manifold onit and a decent exhaust aswellImsure his daughter will love that Quote

Have you seen lots of benefits?Did you have to buy a load of sensors as well?Are you planning to go down the turbo route?I would say it's well worth the £900 on a turbo'd car, but not an n/a. I've gained a noticable amount of pull from 4k upwards. No extra sensors were needed, just used all the stock ones fine. Would like to do the conversion when i'm in a better position to do so yes, need a better job first though. Quote
Mark Edwards Posted April 2, 2007 Author Posted April 2, 2007 how much power is it putting out?put a 4 branch manifold onit and a decent exhaust aswellNot got a power figure for it yet, but hoping for a three figure output. Quote
Mikey Jay Posted April 2, 2007 Posted April 2, 2007 I predict 104.6 bhpDon't ask why, just the number that popped into my head Quote
