Looking good Marc!

Got my injectors sorted in the end without needing that extra part.

I should say spring round our way will be fun! I reckon 2 400whp mr2's will do a treat! Heres hoping for me, you'll be there easy.

Wheels look way better, a good choice :thumleft: You kept the rev5 then, good choice too.

30mm :roll: I had those wheels on mine with a 45mm drop and they looked awsome. Really filled the arches nicely. I reckon a 50mm drop would be the best :thumleft:

dunno if rev3 is different somehow as stock , but 30mm is as low as i dare put it ,any lower and the rear tyres will be rubbing the arches.

edit just had a look at your pictures rory ,and mine is as low as yours was :-k

Yeah I have a rev 3 dropped about 30mm on coilovers, if I go any lower the rear tyres rub. It occasionally catches now on bumpy roads. That's the problem with wide high profile 15" tyres.

No rory ,hasn't realy been the weather to be trying 350whp out .
I will add that since the pictures were taken i have raised the back up 5mm as on really bumpy roads the arches were hitting the tyres .i also got jiggy with the hammer and banged the arches in a bit ,but i plan on geting them rolled soon
