Hi guys,

I thought I would post up my car. Although it's not an AE86, it has the heart of one, and his a helluva lot of fun on windy roads! It's a 2001 Westfield SEiW Lotus 7 replica. Has what I believe is a JDM big port RWD 4AGE with JDM T50 attached to it. Rear end is bespoke Westfield IRS using an Escort diff in custom housing. I believe the ratio is somewhere around 4.7 ish.

I haven't had it on a weighbridge, but it's in the vicinity of 600kg. It goes very well, and is brilliant around corners! It's got some kind of Dunlop wheels which I can't find info on, and Toyo R888 tyres. As far as I know the engine is standard, but with a crappy old Injec EM3 standalone ECU (if anyone has or knows of a hand controller for one of these, please let me know!) and it made 118.2rwhp.

Plans are to build the 5AGE stroker engine that my wife is getting me for my birthday (it's from my brother Nafe's AE86, which some of you may remember) with good rods and pistons, probably from Brian Crower, silvertop throttles, cams and head work. I also planning on painting the car in the near future, and eventually a bit of a re-trim/freshen up of the cockpit is in order, which will include making a carbon fibre dash.

Here's some pics




At the moment I am having trouble selecting reverse and fifth gear when stationary. It's as if the shifter kind of won't go far enough to the right to find those gears. A few people have suggested it could be something to do with the remote shifter. It appears a home made remote shifter was used when the car was built. I'll pull it out when I get a chance and post pics.

That's all for now, I'll put some more pics up when I have a chance.

Cheers,
Bren
