Time for a bit more of on update, to get this ready for the summer, and some progress through the lock down we are currently going through.
Got a fair few job to finish that were rushed last summer, mainly fitting some parts I never got around to.
So I'll update with progress for this Spring 2020..
Firstly engine has came out, as it was only temporary, and now I plan to fit a good MK2 RS engine, which has had a rebuild in by previous owner, I still have the original engine so it can go back to how it left the factory.
The MK2 engine I plan to run on a ME221 with a flat top manifold, and ARC chamber and induction box.
Some pic of the engine to go in
Then in a couple of months a set of Jenvey ITBs, now this was the main reason to drop the MK2 JDM engine in, as it is a better starting point to add throttle bodies to.
Other items include fittin the OEM rear light seals and bootlid brake light seal, service the electric window to free them up so they move quicker with grease and some delrin bushes....
Plus a new washer bottle lid and bonnet stay holder

After reading a post referring to what we have spent on our cars, this spurred me on to, well not add it up but a least to put together a spec list, sure there are things I have missed, so I’ll treat this as a draft list.
I am contemplating putting some Jenvey ITB’s on the car, but we will see.
