Sprint R build blog site launched
Hi everyone...earlier this year I nearly bought a MNR Vortx+....but then discovered the Lighter Faster Better Sprint R from RoadRunner Racing.
So I bought one of those instead, and am building now.
Please feel free to come visit my Sprint R build blog site http://www.lighterfasterbetter.co.uk
Sprint R owners/builders especially welcome!

It was pure chance your post was at the top of the list just as I came on. I was taking a quick break from configuring callmanager and routers!

You're not wrong there.

Chris.
Nick's Type-R Elise conversion was £2200 for engine, £2800 for kit, 3 weeks of his life (almost literally!) and about £300 on ancilliaries. He
says it goes...and goes...and goes... (never driven VTEC before) which is great...but now he needs brakes. Which is of course a GOOD thing
