Wheels are only costing me E250 but have to sort delivery myself (as they dont deliver internationally) so it'll work out about E600-650 to my door total. Still good value I think, and with the power it has and the welded diff etc I'll need to go 195 45s, as still want decent handling. Still will be some stretch though. Heres 15x8 et-12 Bassetts with 195 50s on an another 5.Quote:

Yeh have plans for the interior too. Ideally I'd hope to get a set of RS limited proper recaro carbon seats for it. They came standard in the rs limited mx5s so will fit mint, but they're about £600-800 a set so will be a while before I get them. Also hope to get a full cage made up, and alot of other little ideas I have for the interior, but thats all stage 2 of the project lol! Sort the exterior out within the next month first.Quote:

A sr20'd one in the UK came 4th in the last round of the BDC AFAIK, and theres a NB shape one drifting in Formula D so it is possible anyway. Wheelbase is only 5 inches shorter than an 86 so not a massive difference there.Quote:

He said that one of the first times he went over he came back with all bits and bobs in his case, and they wanted to charge him 700 quid for the extra weight, he picks up soo much random shit from Japan...
Im sure you will find the odd bit of inspiration from his 5.
EDIT; stickers are the rectangular minto fruit ones...
Nice project, Should be savage when it's finished. Always had a thing for one of these.
I know one of them was from oranmore and was running a GREDDY turbo kit on it and dusted nick a few years back. Dont really know any other specifics other than thatQuote:
