V8 Mk1 6 speed with power steering

[tonigmr2]

Yes, everything.

[Lauren]

I'm sticking with Supra Quicksilver

Don't listen to her Paul, she's mental about yellow. If you could get yellow dogs she'd have them!

Silver sounds good, is it like a titanium type colour?

[cartledge_uk]

Noooo!

Any colour but yellow!

Pink it is then


Even Lauren agrees

[Lauren]

LOL!

[PW@Woodsport]

This is quicksilver

[Lauren]

Pretty much what I thought it would be. More of a classy look then.

[Neil_turbo]

just don't chrome the alloys

[PW@Woodsport]

God no, they look horrendous, i'd rather do them yellow

[tonigmr2]

Boo, missed opportunity.

[Rogue]

Do you keep any spares for the lights? I'm after some of the plastic ball joint clips that the adjusters sit inside.

We've got spares for everything *but* the part you describe...! It comes as part of the lamp from Hella. I can special order them separately though, shouldn't take more than a few days.

[PW@Woodsport]

Ah thanks Patrick but it was the base plate clips i was after not the twist in lamp bits, Peter @ Sbits has them for me so job sorted

[trunks_mk1]

looking lovely! If the colour had to be of an existiing mr2 range colour, I really liked the carribean blue whihc they had on the rev 3/4 mk2's. not a fan of silver cars!..I call thgem lazy people cars - when its dirty no need to clean it

Paul, tried on your site but whats the price for a digital dash conversion on a mk1?

[PW@Woodsport]

I'm sorry trunks but that is not a product i offer, only one i invented, it would only be something done at the same time as an engine conversion.

[first-footer]

Any updates on this monster of a project ,Paul ?

[PW@Woodsport]

Not at the moment i'm afraid, it has had to take a back seat while i finish putting this V6 into an Elise, finishing my V6 Rav4 and building my SC 4a-ge engine.

I just have too many things on the go right now, but it will get done, i always finish a project.

[platmatt8]

Excuses, Excuses

[kaiowas]

i always finish a project.

So hows the convertible coming along....

[PW@Woodsport]

I didn't finish the convertible because the engine conversion i attempted did not work out, that was my first V8 Mk1 attempt and it meant cutting the chassis too much, so the project had to be abandoned in favour of going down the Audi V8 route in another less modified chassis.

It was a shame because the roof conversion was 90% complete, it only needed covering and it was done, in fact i still have all of that roof assembly, it was only the V8 chassis i gave up on.

I guess the lesson is not to bite off more than you can chew, other than that i always finish my projects, providing they don't meet an obstacle that makes it impossible to finish.

[Quigonjay]

is it a 2gr you are putting in an elise paul?
my local guy would be interested in that as he is a lotus specialist
remember him once saying he wanted to be the first guy in the uk to put a 2gr in an elise

[kaiowas]

Only pulling your leg Paul, I'd love to have seen the convertible completed and I'm glad you've still got the bits for it. Probably a mod that's best suited to a car with a relatively stock engine though.
