I'm up for this!! Mines nowhere near showroom condition but might be nice to see a few MR2s and meet a few more members

Good work. Kudos for doing it yourself :thumleft: Thanks mate. Felt really proud of myself when she fired up!!!! Great feeling when you do it yourself and it works!!! Good Job Krish :clap: Thanks mate :thumleft: Nice story Krish, I remember seeing your old car at Uni. Here's a pic from our old cars...

Right, I thought it was about time I finished writing up the conversion results. Been a hectic couple of weeks but the car is done and I’m happy as a pig in xxxx! :mrgreen: Finished the car on Sunday 4th of May!! So I had a few bits left to do since my last post (see list above). After the strip dow...

All sorted, Luke at Pacific Works has offered his services

Saves me using my brain

Thanks for the help guys

Will do mate, would have loved to come to the meet with the car ready but not going to happen. Maybe next time.

Right update time. The plan for the long weekend was to get the NA lump out, remove rad, and slap the turbo in, chargecooler and new rad. Stripping the silver shadow was easy, no rusted bolts. I’m sure there would have been but with Luke only doing the conversion a while ago, all bolts came off nice...

Good work going on here mate. I'll have to try and catch up with you when the conversion is done. Your only 10 minutes away. It would be wrong not to pop in. Glad you sorted an engine crane :thumleft: Rusted bolts are a bit of a nightmare. My silver shadow came apart nice and easy but I'm guessing w...

So I've found more info on an American website: Click This page links to many diagrams, excel sheets and word documents detailing wiring info for a rev3 conversion. The big question is, can I use the info considering it's for a USDM loom??? Also found this thread on MR2OC: Click This link details he...

Update on this. I’ve been doing some research and this is what I’ve found so far. I’ve read the igniter wiring needs to be modified. I’ve read the rear brake lights need to be modified because the UK models have fog lights but I have a JDM version. I have a fog light but I’m guessing that’s been wir...

I thought I was taking on a lot of work. This is crazy. Loving your work though

Dash looks sweet and paintwork looks quality

Kelvin is a good guy, had a fair few parts from him when he changed his mind. I wish I could help with the wiring, mine was a rev 4 turbo engine into a rev3 an shell. Tbh most of my help came direct from Paul woods over the phone, the guy is certainly knowledgable. From what I remember though there...

Posted ECU repin help thread - link

Hey guys, I'm in the middle of a turbo conversion Link to profile I have a JDM Rev 4 NA and trying to put a rev 3 turbo lump in. So far I know I don't need to touch the body loom and that a few wires need to be spliced to make things work. I've found the ECU pinout for the 3SGTE but nothing for the ...

That's impressive work, always interesting the first time you strip it down, it definitely gets easier once you're familiar with what goes where. It's a shame I'm not over that way any more, I'd have been there to give you a hand. Do you know kelvin? (Kayjay) He is just round he corner from you. He...

slipping clutch wrote:Good write up, enjoyable read and excellent work but more importantly you ate 3 double choc tescos hot cross buns before you started - Hero!

Guilty

Never had double choc hot cross buns before. They tasted so good

It's never just easy is it #-o You don't need to have the cancer bars but they will help. I believe Pacific Works sell replacements, should you choose to put new ones in. Personally I'd look at replacing the entire hose, both if the other has wear on it too. If it's not doing it's job properly you'...

So the engine drop happened this weekend gone!! What a crazy weekend it was. Before I start I just want to thank Simba, Peter (SBITS) and David (Draven). Special thanks to David for all his pm’s and knowledge of wealth :thumleft: So where to begin....... The plan from Friday to Sunday was to get the...

Good lad is Nij Car looks good :thumleft: Yep top lad :thumleft: Good stuff mate, glad it's all happening for you. I've seen this car so many times over the years (P reg rev4 NA) and thought every time, that so needs a turbo engine! :mrgreen: Enjoy it mate, welcome back. :twisted: Thanks mate, some...

Hi everyone been ages since I’ve posted, mainly because I’ve been busy with life but it’s time for an update! It all ended with the crash in June last year, since then I got the Corsa as a run around (such a great little car) http://i1354.photobucket.com/albums/q684/Krishpamar/1_zps98e1ce1d.jpg http...

No aircon mate. Not sure but i didn't think any UK models had aircon. Probably wrong though
