Hello - have been busy lately!

Car is in for a service and MOT at the moment. Will update the thread shortly - and add a video soon hopefully!

I really doubt that there are forged internals for the engine on this. Worth a look into possibly but unlikely...!

Changed my mind about selling. Decided to keep it.

Minor update, i've had a couple of rear bearings fitted (has made a MASSIVE difference to the ride as they were completely knackered) and I have a new set of wheels to be fitted next week - they look much better than the Yaris ones, and they're a bit smaller. smile

Will do chaps!

The only reason I was going to sell was because I simply wanted something a bit bigger etc - but now i've got use of a van so that box is ticked now! wink

And to the question above - the oil usage doesn't seem to be overly different to before it was modified. The car is still serviced regularly and I know a good mechanic who'll advice me if anything needs changing etc. (Something i'd love to be able to do myself but can't)

The supercharger I believe needs a service every 50,000 or 2 years - I had it checked and serviced last year and it was all running perfectly.

The car has travelled about 14000 miles since the conversion and has been across the country and back (literally) without a problem.

I'll get a picture of the new wheels up sometime next week..need to pick them up first. smile

Cheers guys

New wheels fitted. Tyres will probably be changed to a lower profile soon. Super lightweight wheels though! Could do with refurbing at some point perhaps but they're going to be used so doesn't overly matter! driving

Had to have new wishbones, bearings, anti rolls etc fitted and have also given it a fresh bit of underseal on a couple of parts. smile

How are those Sparco seats fitted. Was it just simply mounting them on the old fittings or did you have to change stuff around the get them the fit?
They're mounted on OMP frames that are specific for the AYGO/107/C1 smile
