Someone just popped up on MR2OC having put a refundable deposit down on this car... and also reported it was overheating (which the garage said is just the thermostat, but I somewhat doubt that). Thanks to this thread and the experience of another OC member who looked at that car a couple of years ...

Rev 3 blocks can crack, rev 1&2 I understand are stronger and do not crack.

They all can crack.. I've seen examples of them all. The whole "rev 1/2 is stronger" is nonsense

I had a set of these to go in my old MR2 and I can honestly say they are up there with some of the comfiest car seats I've sat in... I was gutted to have sold mine when I look back on it. If I didn't have other stuff to sort out I'd have jumped on them! I had a peek at them when I was dropping Peter...

Just spotted a red 355 replica in Widnes near the Stobart container yard next to a McDonald's

that's about as good as a description I can give as I don't know the area haha

It actually looked like a nice one to be fair.. Not many I'd say that about. Nice one!

Well its been a while since i put an update on here about what ive been doing with the car and what i will be doing... TOTB At TOTB i didnt realise that they gave out a trophy for the best 60ft time in each class on the 1/4m. I remember when the trophies were being given out I was really pleased tha...

Well... I've got to be honest.

Dude I love them!! They have came out awesome! Gonna look ace on your car for sure!

Stick some 255 Toyo R1R's on the back and you will be laughing (not to be confused with T1R)

Awesome

Yeah that second to last was awesome! It's just an awesome bit of kit.. Love it!

Looks like a great achievement there! Hopefully some day I'll get my borg warner turbo'd car to this! The Granada mentioned belongs to a friend. Totally home built and he drives it from here in NI over to events then drives it home! He was suffering from gearbox problems, couldn't get it to take ge...

Definitely a very good and well timed find :) I absolutely love the regas. It's the weight of them that is awesome aswell! I waited a while to get mine aswell... Worth the wait though :) I'm Really glad you got some. They are going to set the car off perfectly! Cannot wait to see them finished and o...

Good man!! I'll need to hear the details :wink: I've been on bikes since I was 7 but made a bit mistake when I was 14... I had a big off and didn't get back on right away. I lost the bottle for it and for the last couple of years I've been wanting to get back on again but I refuse to jump on somethi...

I might have a little something to put up against you by then :wink: :thumleft: :D I hope you do buddy! No turbocharged hayabusa carry on though :lol: they stress me out at the best of times haha! That's actually part of the reason I'm not going to have the shell ready. I'm planning to build a turb...

Awesome dude!! I'm tuned into this I love what you are doing with it...

P.s awesome choice of wheels
I'm going to be gutted to be not using mine next summer

So when's my old tintop build start then mate? 8) That's a good question :lol: I don't know haha! I think I'm going to continue in this shell with development and probably use it for next years Totb and then in the mean time prepare, chop and widen the tin top and get it ready for swapping over. I'...

Went through to meet George and see his car today... Top bloke and the car is a proper weapon! :shock: Actually funny how quick it is! :lol: Thanks again mate. Was good to meet you! I think I'll be phoning Simon at YVS once I get all my parts bought! Yeah bud was great to finally meet you :) after ...

This is against everything that I personally think is ok :lol: But I absolutely love it!! Your reason is totally understandable and being honest with you - as much as I hate diesel and think it's an abomination - it's a brilliant idea! Best of both worlds for your situation! Hats off to you buddy I ...

I hope I will still see you about Rich at Simons or other stuff from time to time... Yorkshire can be our central meeting place haha

I'm not too sure about who to recommend for the work as I only use YVS myself and I happily travel for it every single time. (Never once have I had any issues) Liz is like me.. A spade is a spade. Calls thing as she sees them and quite rightly so. No point in sugar coating poo... You were speaking t...
