It looks like I'm going to have to sell a few of my cars.........as my mate that I sold the attol 155 back to is going to sell me the 75
I drove the 75 a few years ago when he got it and loved it then but it's had loads done to it since
I'm going to build the attol 155 into he's dream spec plus cut any rust out as part payment then cash as well

Same as shrew said, and awesome .

Have the seat centres been re trimmed ?

If you don't like the boot lid / spoiler then give me a call....however I won't hold my breath. :D

Would a turbo on the twin spark give more power? Or is that harder than swapping to a factory 1800 turbo.

I think the centre of the seats have been retrimed.
I'm collecting the engine in 3 weeks time. I think its a factory 1.8 turbo will let you know when I collect it the full spec etc
Sorry boot and spoiler are staying lol

I think the seats are the top Alcantara options for a 33 16v qv, i have them for mine and they looks just like that :D

The 1.8 turbo is a purpose made motor for forced induction, so far less messing about i guess. If you "Blew" the 2.0 TS motor you could only either run low boost or start looking at lowering the compression to suit higher boost.

Should be fun, especially if you did it with a modern approach and ecu etc.

BLS prepared Graham Presley's 75 turbo race car, and it was pretty silly power for the time! :shock:
