im glad im keeping to the "cheap" mods

wouldnt like to think how much those set you back.

Surprisingly not too much, but this rebuild has certainly grown arms and legs.

got to love a bit of old school goodies

Awesome- coming together nicely! That was Nathan's wasn't it? Looks tight against the driver side of the engine bay with the TB on it

[jimGTS]

im assuming the TB is in the boot at that point.

infact probably most of the manifold

[Century Motorsport]

It was mine, but it wasn't mine. If that makes sense

I've never used it. Just happened to have it for sale

By the looks of it, it's going to be put to very good use!

[J-1]

Massive thanks to you, Nathan, for your help and advice with these two lovely parts!

[J-1]

Update...

Not spent anytime with the car for months now which is really p1$$ing me off. Starting to get a bit fed up to be honest...

But still continuing to buy parts a steady rate which is the main thing, and I really don't have a great deal left to buy! Just want it finished now.

This weeks purchases;











Another HUGE thank you to Nathan Freke for the help and selling me some top parts at very good prices. An absolute gem of a guy to deal with.

Also ordered (via Nathan);

Brian Crower valves
Brian Crower springs
Brian Crower Ti retainers
Brian Crower valve guides

They should be here in a week or two, so that will likely be the next update as I'm back in sunny Angola...

Also considering selling my white Rev 4 road car as well due to lack of use.
Think it'll be last MR2 I have as a road car.

[J-1]

What's left to buy;


HKS adjustable cam gears
HKS fine tune timing belt
ARP main studs
MAP sensor
Quaife ATB LSD
All sensors
Fluids
Water / meth kit

At a later date;
Digital dash
KW V3's
Big brake kit

Thanks mate.

Quite pi$$ed off with it all at the moment as I have a millions jobs to finish on the car (non engine related) and can't seem to get the time to do it.

I'm currently in cahoots with someone about the water/meth kit I plan on using. Forgot to add that to the list!

I know... It is a shame really as I had (still have for the time being) great selection of parts to make an extremely quick car.

But the carrot was waved and I took it!
