He'd be proud! :)

rear rake? I guess you mean the super low torsion bar! it's looked odd ever since i've installed the lighter-than-an-f7 F4R :dapprove: I probably need new rear shocks n all! and yeh, it's 'only' the rear panels that need doing (and a removable scuttle whilst youre at it tbh), but you might...

chopped the old ones off and welded new ones on the inner ones were plated

I remember your minty J plater! :D I've had LMG for over 3 years now! :eek:

and a few general ones :) - including my new licence plates (101mm height on the front) pic quality isnt amazing as the sun was just setting so not much light! shiney!! :D very pleased with the result. It was 'GB Bodyworks' in Canvey Island, Essex who carried out the work. I...

my mk1 16v (with an F4R) has just come out the bodyshop! Here are the before shots of the arches: so yeh, rusted, bubbled, filler, mismatching paint, the lot! :o: LMG's signature rusty B pillar: fucked sills: all in all, not the best nick...

haha awesome!

i'd say budget for about £1500 you may get a good one for less, but it's always handy to have a bit of a reserve go for general condition and 'tightness' over age/mileage/former keepers etc.. my old 137k j plate valver drove better than most on half that mileage

do it :cool:

i remember that 2nd pic!

sounds like 'harvythehippo' will point him this way

lovely example! :)

haha :D

:approve:

:lolup: sounds like a challenge :D

looking good! :D

i know they're swappable with the 1.8 16v shafts I'm reasonably sure that the lower spec ones have the same tripod joint too... but cannot confirm :( don't swap the whole shaft for an R19 16v one, they don't fit as well

can certainly be done, but its a fair amount of effort for what you get out of it. easier to stick a mk1 16v engine in

got all the electrics sorted?

yeh, nice to have though!

noice needs more rpmz though :D

:o the weight!!

few things to report with mine - I uploaded the 'regular' 98ron cal (because i only have firmware 160)... mine still kangaroos at very low throttle :( also, my idle now seems to be 1050rpm, when it was 950rpm before. this was the same after a 35mile trip. I even opened the bottom and made sure...

oops, now i see the 'regular' one :o

damn, sat in the car now and i've just seen my fastchip VCI firmware is 160... fail :dapprove:

that's what i want too!!! pain with a solid engine mount :(

cool let us know how you get on :)

is the 98ron map also 7500rpm?

haha hows the forum doing these days?

why? F7Rs are indestructible.
