oldrx7 Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Had a quick gander at this marvelous machine and Caffeine and Classics on Sunday.

Builds need to be a bit more powerful/performancy these days, 148hp doesn't cut it haha 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feels great in car. This is on the local test track Huge huge thanks must go to @Lithfor making the trip up to fastidiously tune the car, it drives really nicely, behaves well at all loads/conditions encountered so far and is just generally a pleasure to hoon around in. Been many a moon since I've come onto OldSchool but I decided to come back and stalk the update posts for you and @sheepers because I knew big things had been going on Super super super stoked still to read over the build on this again with the antics of a couple of weeks ago pretty fresh in memory. Was just great to hear the noises this thing makes, the way it's presented and to get to go for a drive around and generally experience how brilliantly the whole thing has come together. It is ideal that you stuck with it and taken it to the point it is now, it was honestly a real happy time seeing Richy chuckles and stoked faces as it became clear that it all was working and was going to be a hilariously fun outcome. The trip was never going to be a chore, its always choice catching up and I love playing with cars like this but being able to add a tiny piece of the puzzle that has a tangible effect on the final package of this thing makes me warm inside. Awesome work with the build, man. Its such a great car and I think that as much as it looks great in pics, the thing needs to be seen or experienced in person to realise how bloody on point the whole thing is. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SunnyCoupe Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 Had to have a lol at one of the lines on the first page of the build regarding the exhaust..."Kinda ugly tip but it'l do for the time being, this is a budget build after all!" Super sick man, the attention to detail is inspiring for munters like me where close enough is good enough. The results you get when nothing is small enough to be overlooked are just mega.

ajg193 Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 You really need a set of four starlet deer head centre caps for your wheels. I hear there is a Good Engineering outfit with a little CNC mill that can make them Based on this 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoozin Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 Haha, I am ok for center caps, I have original ones for all the sets of wheels I use on the car. I do have a KP62V grille with the deer badge on it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUNAMUCK Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 This car getting put on the cover is a no brainer. It's about sales. A starlet will be more likely to draw people in to pick it up than some generic ricer. (Even one worth heaps more/with tons more power) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SR ROLLA Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 What a sweet-as car, well built and loads of cool touches. Even though they are only the cert/WOF wheels I reckon those XR-4s look great, suit it really well. Always nice to have options for changing things about too. Good work!
