Nice!


I run 8" fronts and it's sometimes not great. Might need to find some narrower ones mate in all honesty. But depends on how you want it to handle really.

[McWoody]

They're 9.5 on front but tyresare only 215's so might not be as bad. will see when get bodywork finished

[McWoody]

been a bit like christmas came early for me lately, lots of bits arrived.
got some led indicators and reverse lights to graft into new tail light,
new disks 319mm off a lexus theyre huuuuge and should go well with new brembo calipers.

just ordered wood for workshop/garage build then can get down to some serious work

Interesting work dude, will follow what you're doing... Are you just upgrading the fronts?

215 on a 9.5 is extremely small! Oh well, if it works for you...

235 is standard on my beemer on the front and it does tramline a lot, even with spot on tracking. Having said that, it's not much worse than the 215's on my turbo.

How ya getting on with those Skyline lights fitted to the MR2 mate?

[McWoody]

Not done much, got plan together but not had much luck end of the year.
Was building garage but then got hand caught in circular saw so been outta action for a while,
Its just healing now, managed to miss everything important thankfully but got a decent man scratch to remind me the spinny bit hurts lol.
Gonna get started on the MR this week.
Will get pics posted up to document progress

Great project so far

Interresting to see someone trying something new!

Regarding the compressor-3S-GE-Upgrade:

A few people in Germany have done it (or at least tried it).

Here is a link to the german board, where one member presents his compressor-3S-GE:

Hope you get well soon and keep up the modding

Cheers,

Managed to get some work done on mr today. Got sump off to see what knocking was and the good news it looks like apart from the cheap oil in it there was a blocked pickup due to sludge in sump. So that looks like the cause which is good.
Just gotta clean sump up and refil oil and fit new oil filter then that should be done
then after fit the coilovers I can start on the bodywork

[craig]

All the best with the recovery matey!

[McWoody]

got coilovers and new rear disks fitted (301mm drilled and grooved from a rav 4) to drivers side today. Passenger side tomorrow
Sits at nice height, will be able to start bodywork soon
