a series 3 was the other idea, do they go alright? was kinda hoping for a 13b tho, as long as it has it has a lumpy idle I wouldn't care haha

How about a 180B and disconnect 2 plug leads, fuel economy & lumpy Idle!!

A short wheel base car, with an LSD, goes very alright. If you don't know what your doing, and it gets out of hand, be prepared to change your undies. Any type of ported rotaries cost lots of $$$ to build and maintain then rebuild and maintain some more. Again fuel economy isn't the greatest. Just keep your 33. You won't find a car that is quick, looks cool and is cheap to run.

Here is a good rule to use: Quick, Cheap, Reliable <-- you can only pick two.

Heres a nice 4 door, more Rob's style in terms of handles but looks ok.

    • Thanks for advice chaps   so you would change idler and tensioner bolt as well ? I guess because you thinking they have stretched once ?   i have done some research and on nissan belt and seem to hold 700hp but thinking HKS to be on safe side   i think I put nissan there last time   also thinking of changing cam cover to glass style:)
    • Nissan/Pitwork is fine stuff. HKS is just marketing wank. I personally wouldn't do the idler if it is already new. If it looks and feels fine, it is fine. But as D says - it's cheap to add it to the job. The water pump ditto. Even more so. If it show no signs of problems, then it is nearly new - leave it.
    • 1. I can't see a location on your profile but you do mention GBP so I'll assume you are in UK. In Australia, CBC make a timing belt kit with the gears and idler and tension bearing and that is what I use without any problems. I'm sure OEM or HKS are also fine but I wouldn't pay extra for HKS over anything else. 2. Yes, I would always change the idler and tensioner and the stud and bolt that hold them in. Assuming they were all done last time it is highly unlikely you would have a problem, but they are very cheap to add to the job considering the time it will take anyway.  3. No, you don't need to lock them as such (I think that is more for engines without timing marks), but you should make sure they move as little as possible once the belt is off as you can hit pistons on valves if they move too far. As always, make sure you line it all up to top dead centre with the timing marks aligned before you take the old belt off.
