Good quality, there’s a lot of sellers charging 2-3 times the price for that brand on eBay. Your welcome to come have a look if you pop over with olle at some point.
I made a mistake I bought it off eBay, it’s this one

Removed the cage to make a start on the harness bars, don’t have a tube notcher so had to do it by hand, tacked them in place so I can check there in the right place before the final welds.
Errr yeah that was me started that with my other car 🙈😂😂
Wheels look smart buddy, Think bright colours always look cool especially on darker cars :cool:
It’s used but not had much use, think it’s an American brand

Not yet mate, I’ll prob take the whole lot to engineering shop to be ground/checked once my engine is out and stripped, was just...
After chucking my dashboard in the skip I decided I’d quite like a flocked one so picked this up earlier. I’ll have to fabricate something to hold it up as I chucked the support in the skip to :laughing:
New steering wheel quick release, previously had a ebay special but after deciding I...
Bit more progress tonight, matched the meg pistons and rods as best I could. One of the wrist pins is tight on the rod so I’ll need to sort that out before anything else.
Sounds good Olle. I’m sorting garage out so I can make a start on turbo conversion at the mo, you’ll have to pop over once I start.
Few more parts turned up.
Engine dynamics 5 puck clutch.
Full silicon coolant hose set and stainless clips.
Engine dynamics triple layer head gasket and various...
Made a start on the cage, modified the mounting feet so they fitted nice, marked out where the cage fitted then drilled and welded nuts on the back before I welded the mounts in place, was a bit scary as the petrol tank runs right behind back of the mounts both sides but a bit of tinfoil between...
There a great setup, it’s what I bought for mine to start with, very forgiving for road use but equally happy on track. Just give me a shout if you want the roller :)
What suspension are you running olle? I find with my very hard (650lb) front coilover springs I need to remove the front spacers sometimes as I struggle to compress the shocks (mainly cold or wet days) the shorter front track allows more force to be applied with less effort.
I run a stud conversion with a 16mm front spacer, no problems at all, however .. I have modified front arches and flared rear arches.
My wet wheels are 7x15 et35 with a 195/50. My other wheels are the same spec but the 195 is more like a 205 as there very square.
I run 2.25 degrees rear camber...
Bit the bullet and ordered some forged rods this week with ARP 2000 bolts. They were delivered today so I measured them on the paint mixing scales, there all within 0.5 of a gram so super impressed.
I now need to decide on weather to chuck them in with the 225 pistons and injectors and run...
