Top engine mount cut and used on adapter plate to honda mount.

Took for its first road legal thrashing after work......im sorry but this is not a quick car. It makes me sad panda. Not a bad car by any stretch and it does handle very nicely - but i just dont know if its what i want.

Im thinking i should go back to my original plan of whamming a flat 6 in a early impreza.

Remove a substantial amount of kilo's and I'm sure it'll be fine. There's gotta be billions of bits of crap that can be removed, start with interior, remove door trims, gut the insides of the doors, sound deadening, every single redundant clip, bracket, wire etc... bet it's even got a rear windscreen wiper so ditch shit like that, and it's motor.

Cut hack slash chop destroy in pursuit of speed.

Will see if the pug sells, all i want is to recover what i spent thus far then i can try something else. Have also just realised how massively in the shit my bank balance is :(

I dunno...nothing against the car but it just isnt hitting the spot for me.

Next adventure will be to shamelessly copy clint because i love his car and it does hit the spot.

So it's now for sale? How much does it owe you?

Asking 2k. Might let it go for a little less to an OSGC. I feel bad for giving up so quick but fuck me, its not worth going any further unless im really into it.

Definitely right there. Otherwise all you will end up with is a stripped, worthless shell. At least its still able to be sold at this point.

/swap for an equally useless and unappealing Opel Calibra? :lol:
