Sprint Engine Conversion

[SprintMWU773V]

great car but have to watch the rear end. I used to work at a well known car auctions which happened to be next to Blackbushe Market which is basically a huge open space for 6 days a week. Drove the S2000 on there and nearly hit the toilet block, probably my fault. As far as i'm aware I still hold the official/unoffical record for doing 105mph accross the market in a Vauxhall Lotus Carlton. Best of all I wasn't fired either, wish I ws still there but money was crap even for a student's job.

thats the guy off the CT forum, He posted a pic of the gear box and I think someone off here told him it wouldn't fit

Graeme you have mail already, but I didn't want to shout about my ebay ID on here. (For the ones who hadn't worked it out) I bought the box a while back and then Graeme pointed out that it was the wrong one, so I need rid of it. Don't think I've ever posted on a C**T forum by the way. Wash your mouth out Adam. Don't suppose you want a spare axle for your 1850 do you?<br>

...I see with the face lift Honda have made it resemble the Z3 from the front...that other famous girl's car!<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :rollin --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... s/roll.gif ALT=":rollin"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END-->

Z3, S2000 and Elise - I'm afraid they are all girls cars - they are all cars the misses tried before going for a 2.8 Z3 - bit more grunt in normal driving - I'm only saying what the girly said.<br>
<br>
A man's car - that would be a Porsche 911 - but the bloody wife reckons they are a girls car and she now wants one.<br>
<br>
I'm going to stick to Triumph's, even though the girly's at Goodwood with Elise's thrash the rollocks off my rotten old Sprint, bloody girls.<br>
