I can't find my original thread about my car (If I even had one), and seeing as I've done a few things since then, thought I'd just make a new one!        ENGINE 4g63 from 1981 sigma, non-turbo 5 Speed 2"exhaust from standard manifold with single coby, 8mm Leads New Coil 32/36 weber And that's it, oh I painted the cam cover orange. EXTERIOR Mint original paint, bright orange Rust free 15" multispoke wheels, but have dished 14" mesh wheels to go on 195/50 tyres all round "low" King springs up front with KYB gas shocks Reset leaves 100mm in the back, cut and sanded bumpstops to accomodate Oldschool.co.nz banner Tidied up paint on trimmings etc INTERIOR Stripped out yo! Minor stereo, cd player, cheap speakers, small amp and sub Oh and I have the door skins retrimmed. FUTURE MODS as of 24th may 2005 Twin sidedraughts Extractors Worked head 14" deep dish JDM style wheels Bare metal respray in silver with black pinstriping Bolt on flares...Bling bling Maybe change tail lights to skyline style, just to keep kyteler happy Externally mounted oil cooler Small aftermarket lip Very small aftermarket spoiler, like the escort ones Full retrim in black vinyl Some decent pics. Last two from first day in my ownership |

gorgeous car! Round headlamp model too! Very few of these left in the UK, and the later ones are just as rare.
They only sold them with 1600 and 2000 lumps here!

Fabulous! Can't remember the last time I saw one of those on the roads here. A looooooong time ago, I know that much.
Lovely colour, too!

Got my 25mm spacers on, bit curse word, didn't take the wheels out as much as I'd hoped, so guess I'll have to get some non bolt on 5mm ones too! Or 8" wheels with more dish. Also, got some Pioneer 2 way speakers from work for 30 dollars, as we've stopped selling car stereos, they were 130 bucks. Not bad really   |

Well it's been awhile fellas! Before    During   After   Not much clearance with these motors. leaves a wankload for an i/c though  Manifold is being rewelded up for wastegate flange. Wiring will be taken care of by a LINK ecu. Also, the driveshaft didn't want to play ball, so that's next, might need a starion one Decided to invest in an EVO i/c  Current pic as of today just to show it won't actually be that tidy. won't be sticking with haggard TC turbo or crosspipe either, just to get her going.  And my "new" grille. Pretty happy with it, cost like 80 bucks but looks good. Also scored a heap of new parts for free, facelift taillights, GSR badge, headlining, extra haggard grille etc etc |

 it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts  |
