220 GSI Turbo - W.I.P

Post by black_sunrise »

This is how i got it

then this came!

Image

then i bought some parts

Koni yellow adjustable shockers with Gmax lowering springs

Image

New throttle body, fixed the issue i had with it idling like a bitch and the throttle response was literally 1 second from the press of the pedal

Image

New mirrors as the M3 ones on it were shocking tbh

Image

New shoes :D

Image

one small kerb mark on them on one of the wheels and 4 nearly new tyres all for the tidy sum of £117!

excuse the centre caps, they will be coming off. wonder if i can get some rover ones that fit.

now onto the bodyshop for a respray...

Is it my impression or the rear springs aren't correctly fitted? I think that they show be in the inverse position.

That is a standard Rover part too. It was an optional accessory.

Yes it was a roversports styling accessory. Quite rare and sought after in the UK.
