It took me a long time to source replacement engine mount for these cars... Mike on here had to order the rear engine mount all the way from Europe for his RVR :/

 

So ive decided to make my own custom (93A PU) polyurethane front and rear engine mounts.... Let me know if you're after some as ive made a whole bunch more spares... For RVR's or any car really

 

Im yet to drive it obviously but the 93 PU is extremely stiff for high horse power engines yet with give to make it last a lot longer than a stock rubber replacement

Looks unreal mate. I miss the excitement of getting new parts in the mail and building an engine.

Hah, yeah good point! But when it's going to shiny new things you can kind of justify it to yourself..

So after waiting for over a year now getting this engine built, ive been through a few normal newish daily cars but i can honestly say nothing drives as nice as a 21 year old Sports Gear... There's something about how the interior and seating is set up that make them sooo comfortable to drive.... And for $1300 im stoked on this little daily wagon...  The previous owners died and their son who sold it to me told me in the last 10 years they owned it they only did about 30-40,000 k's... And considering the paint, seat and interior condition it's 116,000k's looks totally genuine :)

Very nice Lars. I agree with you on the seats. Imo they're much more comfortable than the Recaros in the HSG. 
Gives it a totally different driving experience. 

 

Now it's just a matter of time before the 'daily' becomes another project. Haha
