Galliano Posted January 22, 2008 Author Posted January 22, 2008 lol... not many people even know what a Paseo is, let alone one with an engine conversion!! so count yourself lucky Quote
Idrees Posted January 22, 2008 Posted January 22, 2008 Si off TGTT now has one, its white. I think he bought it off Wild Quote
WallaceGlanza Posted January 22, 2008 Posted January 22, 2008 There was one at the scottish meet last year too, its in the photos in the meets section. Quote
riko666 Posted January 22, 2008 Posted January 22, 2008 Ben is no longer with us, so I don't know what's happened to the carOllie's Paseo was sold off, now the engine broke and it's having the engine taken out....Dex is buying the custom loom though, so he'll be 4efte-ing soonThere's also a 4EFTE Paseo in Scotland, some "Carlos" person from what I rememberMatthew Williams Black Si turbo, which went to Kevin...was written off a while agoI also heard of a Paseo getting a transplant around this time too...Plus I'm helping another Paseo member in acquiring parts for a 5efte conversion Quote
scutch0 Posted January 22, 2008 Posted January 22, 2008 i remember the black 4efte seo on toc? was that matthew williams? or is it another one riko? Quote
Galliano Posted January 22, 2008 Author Posted January 22, 2008 the black one i recall had the custom front bumper if im right in thinking?and shame about the white one that ollie had, and i didnt know there were so many...then again its a easy kinda swap for the power that you get Quote
riko666 Posted January 22, 2008 Posted January 22, 2008 yeah that was Matthew Williams chap - he's the guy that made me want a Black Paseo! The car then went to Kevin, or "Dandyons", who now has a Dark Green Starlet GT Ahhh, the old TOC days, that was fun ;) Quote
riko666 Posted January 22, 2008 Posted January 22, 2008 it's not "Easy"If it were "Easy", the labour wouldn't have been £1500ish The wiring takes a lot of hacking apart Quote

scutch0 Posted January 23, 2008 Posted January 23, 2008 what ever happened to that threepot bloke? Quote
riko666 Posted January 23, 2008 Posted January 23, 2008 he gave up on cars pretty much - he's suffering from some pains which don't permit him to work with heavy objects anymore, so he's given up on any car related projects Quote
Galliano Posted January 23, 2008 Author Posted January 23, 2008 tis a shame, i noticed hes got a few bits on ebay, but i didnt know he had a crx Quote
riko666 Posted January 23, 2008 Posted January 23, 2008 he was a Honda person - and he talked about "a" CRX a lot, don't know if it was specifically that one Quote
Galliano Posted January 23, 2008 Author Posted January 23, 2008 lol, yeh, i did like some of the work on his paseo, shame he stripped it instead of sell it, what happened to bring on the take apart? Quote
riko666 Posted January 23, 2008 Posted January 23, 2008 loss of interest, some "pains" that have stopped him from being able to lift heavy objects, and hence he's trying to take things easy now, to undo the damage of the "younger years of yore"...shame he's gone off the automotive passion side of things.I'm collecting his 5E-FE and whatever else I find interesting Quote
Galliano Posted January 23, 2008 Author Posted January 23, 2008 cool, i think i remember faintly that he had an operation at one point, or was about to anyhow, and i have been looking into his spoiler, but i rather the ST one lol Quote
Galliano Posted January 23, 2008 Author Posted January 23, 2008 but youve got one... and its on ebay mate Quote
Galliano Posted January 23, 2008 Author Posted January 23, 2008 hey riko, on behalf of a dutch guy, have you got any kind of diagrams etc to show how to get a 4e-fte into a paseo? Quote
