Hi Guys,
Just new here so i thought i would post my X here. When i got her she had a nice hole in the piston. So then a came a rebuild with oversize pistons etc. She handles so well just really underpowered so looking at doing a 4agze conversion from an AW11 MR2 and maybe turbo it. Whilst doing all that im going to get a respray and the tiny bit of rust removed as well as new seals and fix up the interior a bit and maybe even an abarth or dallara kit so i can put some nice wide tires on her. Upgrade all the suspension and and brakes and throw in some race seats / harnesses and roll bar. Think that has just about covered it :)

Anyway here is some pictures so far:
