www.instagram.com/maximumattackrallying I mostly do stuff about rallying, funnily enough.

Never seen one of these in the metal before!

Not as iconic though, as it's the Williams that people lusted over.

Bit far for me this time, but would love to go to this. RR is such a great forum. I love the eclectic mix of cars.

I think they've already launched another 50 special editions since this one was made. This one was a 70th anniversary edition.

Some spots while working today. TVR Cerbera and Corrado VR6 at one house: Giulia Quadrifolio and Aston DBS at another: Their neighbour had one of those wide-arch Abarths with the adjustable rear spoiler too:

Those Cosworths :love:

I wondered that, as it looks like part of a cover for something. Where should it go? I assume it means there's no filter in it :LOL:

Not seen this before, so just had a read through from the start. I'm not really much on the whole camper thing, but it does look quite fun converting a van like that. Colour/wheel combo looks great. Got to bang that vRS engine in it though for sure.

People always slated these but I knew a couple of people that had GSIs and they were pretty good at the time. Looked decent, went pretty well, and the V6 sounded lovely.

Saw this while working the other day. Was looking a bit sorry - damage to the rear bumper, rust on the rear arch and a lot of sun damage to the carbon bits.

How to make your Ferrari look creepy...

Decent paint places seem in pretty short supply round here. I'm a bit out of touch but a couple of the RSOC guys used to swear by APVM in Rackheath so they might be worth an ask.

Just got round to watching these. He came across pretty well. Much better than his usual stuff, though that wouldn't be difficult. Would be interesting to hear more about all the algorithm business.

Fitted an induction kit following the same pattern as @Adeyspec used on his old engine. Also blocked off the recirc. valve so it chatters away now. Need a smaller air filter really, and to do a tidier job of the recirc. blank but whatevs

Yeah it would probably be quite well suited for that, though would be in the same class as 2.0-litre stuff I think

I don't know if they are really. The cheapest on eBay was £1300 last time I looked. I don't know what they sell for through Facebook etc.

Spotted this today. Would have got @leeds_182 very excited.

Got given the rear seats, so fitted them this afternoon: Weirdly, since cleaning the front seats, the inside of the car smells quite bad. I don't know if disturbing the dirt in them has caused it or something, but it's pretty unpleasant. Not really sure what to do about it at the moment.

Not sure I can justify a 500+ mile round trip to map a £300 car unfortunately 😂 In brighter news, I sorted the exhaust today. No pictures as I was a bit pressed for time, but I took the two repair pieces out and welded them together on the bench, then put it back in place and welded it to the...

Weird they never did a convertible version of that gen Celica really, as they did with the others. Fair play for making it himself, though I think I would have gone for different body work personally, just so it was more unique.

First commute completed this morning. It drives ok. The oil smell is a bit unpleasant so might have to try and deal with that. The NS2-Rs can get in the sea as well. I'm sure they're great, but the noise is beyond irritating. Do you need an intercooler/exhaust? That being said, I don't know...

It would be fun, but probably not very sensible on something that's supposed to be as cheap as possible :LOL:

On the subject of the exhaust, it was blowing a bit. My mate said the centre section had snapped the other day, so he had bodged it. He wasn't lying 😂 It was all a bit loose and he hadn't used any exhaust paste, so I took it apart and tried to seal it as best I could, but it's still blowing a...

It doesn't look that bad overall though: I even tried to polish the tailpipe, but it's a bit knackered: To be continued...

I gave the outside a very quick wash, just to get a sense of how bad the body work is. Found a few issues. Missing bit of wiper linkage: Headlights need sorting: One of the GT badges is missing from the front bumper: Crease in rear bumper: Damage to NSR arch: Stone chip on...

Maybe if mine goes pop

Bit of an update as I was messing about with it today... I gave the interior plastics a bit of a clean and scrubbed the front seats as they were pretty dirty. Don't have any before pictures as I forgot, but they came up ok: Annoyingly, my vacuum cleaner has died, so couldn't hoover it...

That sounds like my kind of thing 😂 I might have a bung about somewhere. Do you just remove the dump valve, then bung the two inlet pipes?

I've already copied your order for the induction kit parts 😂 Do you remember what bungs are needed?
