Expensive box of bits



Rear bumper on after being reshaped it fitted badly then was too short as well so cut it and fibreglassed it back together




Thanks Will

It will be next year now, I've gone a bit further with it than what I first planned, it will be worth it going much lighter

Bit of a update I'm still tinkering with the c2



Alloy boot floor fitted


Rear subframe for diff about made still a couple of braces to go in, I did buy a subframe but I'm using a different diff so had to make my own subframe,

Twin plate clutch to go in


Head is now built and on block

Good to see it back sunny side up and sill stands are well worth the effort of fitting,

Oh the engine is here too, turbo is just loose but I had to see it on

I'm just going white with maybe some red bits and bobs on it, I'm having fun finding all the bits to put it back together with

Final drive changed in gearbox to give a lesser top speed and shorter gearing, done by me and a friend it wasn't as difficult as first thought,


Engine and box reunited


Hopefully it will all work again

Oh I couldn't sell it, too much time and effort in it I want to enjoy it once it's finished again, what would it be worth ?


Thanks Will

Swapping turbo to a evo 9 80 series will make life easier for me to get the car up and useable , it will still make plenty of power , the old air flow meter was shot so it wouldn't run and a couple of pins wrong in ecu plug , it should be running again tomorrow
