Simon Posted June 10, 2010 Author Share Posted June 10, 2010 Scored a Subaru W2A IC + Pump + Radiator for it. Now I can think about putting it together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pelo Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 Did you buy that red parts car and the mags from Tex? If so I sold them to him aaages ago. Nice to see some AW11 dedication! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted June 13, 2010 Author Share Posted June 13, 2010 Haha yep. Not the mags though. Those turned out to be sale proof. I bought it off TEX with a gen 2 3SGTE in it. Should end up in the black car in a month of two. I came round with Hagen once to look at it ages ago when it still had a chance of getting on the road. It's got some pretty bad rust in it. Shame because its low kays and under 400th off the production line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted June 27, 2010 Author Share Posted June 27, 2010 I put a tow bar on it yesterday. Heaps safe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xsspeed Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 Hah, I assumed blue one was another mr2 in the other pic. Fuck your car looks choice with the mismatched panels (although subtley coordinated) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted July 4, 2010 Author Share Posted July 4, 2010 Hah, I assumed blue one was another mr2 in the other pic.Fuck your car looks choice with the mismatched panels (although subtley coordinated) Haha cheers. Although I may just get a gloss black paint can from super cheap and run it over them. I got pulled up 3 times last week. They couldn't find anything wrong with it but still. Pain in the ass. I took it to manfield yesterday with 4 other AW11's (two blacktop 20v and one small port 16v) and I was the only one still going at the end of the day. Moral of that story is get a buetop Also I put a 6mm spacer in the back wheels and fitted my full brake upgrade: Hilux one inch master cylinder Facelift vacuum booster GT4 Celica front twin pot rotors and calipers Facelift front rotors and calipers on the rear No hand brake but fuck it stops good! I was out braking all the other MR2's and I had shit 185/60 tyres that Markku got for free on the front. Recommended to all other AW11 owners. Next step is swap the rear sub frame to the face lift one so I Can run a rear sway bar. Insert 3sgte. I need way more track time too. I'm not that flash on the track. At home on the touge tbh. It's so different to track driving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted September 3, 2010 Author Share Posted September 3, 2010 Just unpacked the ZG flares for it. They're pretty shit. Don't fit as well as people on the enets made out. Don't fit the Corona well either. No surprises there though considering they are for a different car. Will decide if I can work with them, might be able to cut bits out or do some sanding but it's cold and raining outside and I cbf thinking about it at the moment. EDIT: In saying that they appear to work significantly better with the full facelift bodykit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikuni Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 I think zepulon was after a set of these, if you are thinking about can't be fucked etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted September 3, 2010 Author Share Posted September 3, 2010 Yeah, I have been in talks with Leon, I was supposed to roll round to his when I was in Auckland but I ran out of time. I'm going to send them up to him to have a play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted October 23, 2010 Author Share Posted October 23, 2010 Been pulled over heaps in this haha. Bought a subaru factory BOV for five bucks to make it quiet. Planning to put the 3S in after exams pretty asap. Maybe after I get the new corona sorted and woffed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bombsquad Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 Maybe a stupid question but is that black ones yours and painted (i dont think it is but im hoping it might be) Either way it looks phat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bombsquad Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 *edit* nope its not, black one has guard indicators Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted October 24, 2010 Author Share Posted October 24, 2010 Nah, it was getting close till it got stacked. Was looking pretty sharp. So eventually it will get rebuilt and repainted with one of these front lips from CHCH and the same flares as that black one has on it. I already got the flares. Will probably end up making some steel wheels for cheapness to fill them out. Like 15x9s or something. Oh and I got black factory side skirts for it, never got round to putting them on. Will see how much money the guy who stacked it has saved up and we might get it back to looking mint near the end of summer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted January 15, 2011 Author Share Posted January 15, 2011 Discovered a few things today: 185/55 don't fit on 14x11. Not even at 65psi, however I suspect they may if I ground off the bead lip. And 195/60's do: Wheel brace almost didn't work. Also guards are not wide enough. Need flares on my flares. Car needs about 60mm lower too. Wheels are actually for that trailer when I eventually turn it into a slamma. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
