Saturday was a sad day as I watched the new owner of my MR2 drive away Sad

But the next day I went and bought this:

My new EK3 26102009398

With a very clean engine!

My new EK3 26102009397

EK3 1.5 LS with 131000 miles on the clock! High milage, but a full service history with a cambelt change 4k ago, so it's in good nick, as you can see from the pics.

Gave her a good clean and de-badged the back, except for the 'Civic' logo, and also removed the rear wiper:

That's how she stands now, just waiting some road tax!

Well your not happy with those ratio find urself a JDM S20 like mine shortest d series gearbox, mine was crunchin but i topped up fluid and seems sorted also gona check the engine mount rubbers (advised by ezz).

if u want it 2 be fun lil daily, do the following.

Quality suspension setup
front an reat antiroll bars
and front an rear strut braces

wont event cost alot an can put them all on in a day then give some of those chavs some grief around the streets lol.

yeah i have to agree with tesh, you cant beat those reat anti roll bars, but beware the front is no good with the reat.

seriously tho, get pics up soon, im looking forward to seeing this car progress
