New Stylus Owner Intro

Hi all.

I've just picked up my new SSC Stylus this weekend.

Its a 1.7 Crossflow on R1 carbs, so not the most modern but after driving it 80miles back from Chester today, its a nice engine and I think I'll be leaving it like this for a year or longer before looking to upgrade unless something nice comes up cheap before.

I expect I'll be on here numerous times asking some sensible and probably some daft questions about the Stylus.

ToDo list so far:

New seats as I prefer the safety of headrests.
Swap the sealed beams for halogens, recomended replacements anyone?
See if I can raise the height of the Steering column so I can fit my legs under easier.

I will be a Stoneleigh next weekend so feel free to come and find me for a chat. I'll be parked up on the Robin Hood (RHOCaR) stand and camping with them too. Any pointers on Stylus ownership welcome.

Cheers

Rob

Hi Rob,

Welcome to the fold. You can park your car over on the JPSC stand, where of course it belongs :mrgreen:

I struggle to find the Robin Hood stand even when I follow people so no chance of the JPSC stand, so if you see me on sat/sun, point me in the right direction and I'll pop on over to the rightful place, if not I'll be the only proper car on the Robin Hood pitch :)

Just look for the massive radio mast - we are underneath that.

Welcome to the fold. See you at Stoneleigh. Just head for the radio mast.

Cross-flow and R1 carbs. I'd keep it this year and then put it back to standard... by getting rid of the cross-flow and getting an R1 engine to go with the carbs. ;)

Sorry Adrian, I was thinking of changing the engine in a year or so but I was looking to upgrade not downgrade :lol: ;)
