I live in loughborough which isn't too far from you. Jct 23 of the m1. I'm going to cadwell on the 3rd of feb (sat). Didnt inspect the bores at the time as far as i'm aware, i'm not hugely experienced with the whole mechanical side of things, it was my first engine swap, but i did enlist the help of...

No worries about tools. I have an engine crane, compressor, ten tonne press, generator, full selection of axle stands, jacks, welder... the list goes on. They are all available for use, but need picking up from loughborough in leicester where i live. If i dont take my '2 i can fit a lot in my trusty...

Sounds like something i could be very interested in... especially if it could be ready for my trip to the Nurburgring in july. I have a mk1a with a 7 rib engine from a 100,000 mile mk1b in it that i swapped last year. The engine has a new timing belt /head gasket/clutch and runs very well. Since the...

Well i'll be coming in my track car anyway, and i'll stick a load of the 'things to do' in the boot just in case we get stuck for something to do. I have a mate who needs an engine swapped in a red mk1b, only trouble is, the engine to go in is still in another car, but like i say, my gold one is rea...

How's this one look? http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=10001&langId=-1&catalogId=10151&productId=173083&categoryId=33931 Hiya kirsty, hope you are enjoying your supercharger 8) . I bought this set and i can vouch for its quality. I cant live wi...

I'm definately up for helping with this on the day, however its my best mates wedding the week before, so i may be of little help with the planning of things. Car wise, I have my track car which has LOADS ready to be done to it - half roll cage fitting, bucket seat fitting, harness fitting, stainles...

Im just down from you in loughborough. I probably have the parts you need as i took them off my scrapped cars. Free aswell if you come and collect, i need garage space for my 2007 project. PM me and we'll sort it.

How much do these guys charge?

I bought one of these off the ebay guy a few weeks ago. It all fits very nicely and you get everything you need in the box including the adaptor that fits on the end of the fuel rail to replace the standard regulator. Although, performance wise I think it was a waste of money as i havent noticed any...

I should be going to this on the saturday.

I recently got the £80 calcium halfords battery as I needed one urgently and had no other choice as the cheaper one was not in stock. I needed one as i was using a brand new battery that was lent to me by a friend. It was the wrong shape, but of similar requirements to my old mr2 battery. But i can ...

Would've been up earlier if it weren't for that pesky snooze button...

I'd just like to say... i'm just back from the pub and I'm glad some mk2's are gonna join the crowd. I have no coilovers, no turbo, and no classy paint job.

But i love mr2's in all shapes and forms and i'm sooooooooooooooo looking forward to sunday.

Can't wait..... see ya there

Don't worry about appearance, mine is the tattiest car you will see, and certainly dont worry about speed, as mine handles like a bowl of jelly and twistees are not it's friend at the mo.

Praying for dry weather, then i should be ok...

Stoke's only 30 mins from there.....shall we say 10am?

Top end of the car park furthest away from the main building?

My mk1 took me about 45 mins the other day, but otherwise sounds fine to me.

Count me in, i'll be leaving from jct23 m1, so its just up the road. What time do you wanna meet?

Looks fine to me, especially if the weather stays like it has been. Not long to go....

If you still have the cat and want to keep standard, i have a standard supercharger flexi pipe you can buy.

Just won these, didn't expect to as i put on such a low bid, but anyone know any info on them and will they definately fit? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=200037297959&ssPageName=STRK:MEWN:IT&ih=010 I quite like the look of them and they are just gonna be t...

You can re-use EVERYTHING, just swap the block. It makes things quite simple that way. Obviously if you have items in better condition on the donor car like i did, including the alternator and the exhaust manifold, then it makes sense to use them. Gearboxes are interchangable too - however depending...
