Thanks! We’ve ordered a test of the colour we want and then that’s the next job. 👍
Nice work. Not into those wheel spacers though - especially at 1 and 2 inches. I know four bolt wheels are limited in availability, but maybe a wider wheel instead of a spacer??
Excellent work, fabrication & wheel set up.

Thanks CJ! Very happy with the way the car looks sitting and drives which is a tough balance to get as it turns out.
Subscribed to see how this turns out. I used to have a Spyder but lost it to a hit and run driver. Looking to get one again and go turbo K24A2 conversion.

Looks fantastic I'm green with envy. Mines been sitting for weeks needing attention but money is short for projects like this. I just want to fix my cold air intake and tune my pfc so I can drive it properly 😁

I know the feeling believe me! Getting this finished was only due to lockdown, otherwise it would have been another year at least. 😂 Can’t wait to drive this soon!
I spent $200 for a widebody kit for my mr2 soyder. It’s made for a brz and took a little trimming but it’s going to look amazing once it’s painted.

Thanks! I ordered the kit from china, found it on eBay and then had to do the import etc that I mentioned. The kit had a lot of issues, but nothing I couldn’t fix as a first timer. I’d rather have to cut off a mounting tabs going in the wrong direction and remake my own than pay an extra £1000 or more.
Do you have any videos of you applying the body filler and alignment of the panels?

Thanks! Yes I am. I’m just waiting on a compressor to arrive and then I’ll set up a booth and do the paint work. 👍
wait, why would you put sealant over all the panels? doesn't that defeat the purpose of the MR-S having un-boltable panels 360 degrees around the car for ultimate serviceability when you need to scrape rust off the frame or tend to repairs easier than any other monocoque in existence?
@KingandTitanRacing

Yeah that’s a great benefit of the MR2 but when you widebody the reality is the production of the kit just isn’t as good as factory. I just used the sealant to fill the slight gaps to the edges of the panels I wouldn’t want to remove. Skirts and 3/4 panels. Bonnets and bumpers are on/off all the time. Thankfully mine hasn’t got any rust on it and then I did the under seal anyway as an extra precaution.

@@KingandTitanRacing i feel that normalizes the car a bit. One deciding factor for me to purchase an ZZW30 over the SW20 was the removable rear panels that are otherwise permanent/ common rust spot on japanese cars. at least it's still virtually possible when you get crashed into/ struck by grandma's door at market. even if you must remove extra sealant.
Great job! What manufacturer did you use?

Thanks! I used a kit from a company based in China who was selling through eBay. I put a link in the description but it no longer works so I guess they’ve stopped selling them. From a design perspective it’s a copy of the APR kit.

Hi Buddy, Planning to go widebody. What's your wheel and tire spec in both front and rear? does it rub in the front when full turn? Thank you for your help!
@KingandTitanRacing

Hi Vince, sorry for the slow reply, I wanted to be with the car to double check for you and have been travelling a lot recently. The wheels are 17” all round with Michelin PS4s on. That’s a great tyre for track and road, I use them on my Vantage as well. Rears are 17”x9” with an ET of 25. They’re a perfect fit with the widebody. I did try 10” but they were too wide in the end. Front I’m using a custom billeted bolt on 50mm spacer and 17”x7.5” with an ET40 offset. They do rub a tiny bit on the weld in the wheel arch but you can hammer that flat without cutting it. Just paint over any scratches and then under seal the arch. Hope that’s helpful, sorry for the delay.

I think the supplier went out of business but if you look for them they do come up every now and again. If I’d known they were so hard to get hold of I would have moulded this one before fitting and painting it.
What is the name of the kit?

This is a copy of the APR kit, there’s a few companies that do those as the originals are very rare. I got this one from EBay and imported from China but the seller doesn’t do them anymore. I got one of the last tho they had in stock and it looks like they’ve not produced anymore. These kits can cost anything between £1500 and £8000 just for the kit depending into he material. (Fibreglass/Carbon etc)

All in this build has been under 17K to date and all that’s left to do is the engine swap. So it depends what you’re after. When this is finished it will be a 400 BHP monster and the budget will have come to around 20K.

@@andy2906 ha, I know what you mean. Filler does have a chunky weight to it. Overall I’m happy with the weighty of the bumpers though, still not notably heavy. And that filler has been sanded back many times so the finished product is probably close to 2/3 of an inch.
