Been a member for a while so thought it was time to show you my project.  Started with this  Then I added this  Then after lots and lots off welding and bodywork it finally saw the daylight in january. It has an e30 rear axle conversion Corsa power steering Porches 911 frontbrakes Boxter front seats and retrimmed 635csi rears Stagered 7x15 and 8x15 wheels Gaz gold coilovers. It runs emerald management and made 239bhp on their rollers.   I'm now starting the turbo conversion! Thanks for looking chris |

From this to this only needed "lots and lots off welding and bodywork"?? Sounds easy  Just kidding, very cool car (in the best colour) and unusual conversion! Top work |

Some days you just need to take a grinder to an inanimate object, just to make your day a tiny bit better!!

Are you just around the corner from Milennium fencing? Saw this a couple of weeks ago, but didn't have time to stop for a proper look unfortunatley.
Looked even more deliciously orangey in the flesh! Bet it sounds awesome on full chat too!

Thanks for all the comments. To answer a few questions The Gaz kit was around 600 It is fitted with the Honda box Yes I'm around the corner from millennium fencing feel free to stop and chat. Here are some build pics New sills inner and outer, rear suspension mounts rebuilt   Rear arches tubbed and had it blasted   Engine mounts made and exhaust manifold modified   There is a full build thread over on the o2 forum. |

 I don't want to sound like a broken record, but I hope you are thinking of bringing that to the Retro Rides Gathering in August!?  I'd love to see it in the flesh, big love for 2002s... but ones with S2000 engines, they get bigger love! |

There is a full build thread over on the o2 forum. Do you have to be logged into view? If not chuck a link in here please 11/10 by the way for a really proper job - I bet that's a hoot to drive We had a midget turn up to a gathering one year with an S2000 lump in it - man that thing shifted and squirmed around on track |
