Irish Paseo Cynos Owners

[Irish_Cynos]

As the title says,

Is there anyone on here from Ireland that drives a paseo or cynos?

I've never seen a modified one in Ireland bar my own

[Jamesb4uk]

there was a 1st gen with a 4efte swap & xracing kit on here a long time ago but haven't seen him in the forums for ages...

[mhantain]

im one

there's a few other cynos owners from ireland on here....

no mods yet though... funds are low

[riko666]

hah, you got the 5 cupholders as well B)

[mhantain]

:D

phew, i was starting to think i was the only one.... :P

useless things

[riko666]

hehe, i suppose, but the cupholder in the arm rest is !Removed! useless! at least the two in the center console can hold something ...either way, im gonna classify it a mod cause im cheap, so your 'seo is modded

[mhantain]

modded at last :D :D

[riko666]

hehe

surely there must be more 'seos in ireland? i know that place is loaded with starlet gt's and whatnot...should be at least more than just 2 'seos....well, cynos's but same thing :P

[mhantain]

i've seen stacks of em on the roads, prob more gen 1'a than gen 2's but still, loads of them especially in cork for some reason

[riko666]

really? strange that, i dont think gen 1's were officially sold in the uk

[Jamesb4uk]

theyre all imports...

mine was imported from Japan to Ireland & then the UK.

[riko666]

that many imports? hmm...suppose you're lucky though, the el44 5efhe has 115hp to the el54's 110hp :(

[Paseo2nr]

you're confusing hp with torque. the stock 2G seo has 93hp, 110ft/lbs of tq.

EDIT: i remember yours has the f*ing distributor motors, so you share the same 5e powerplant as the usdm 1G. how come we got the shaft????

[scutch0]

but the cupholder in the arm rest is !Removed! useless!

at least u seo owners got a cup holder!!!!! :P :ffs: :!Removed!:

Rich.

nah nah, i was talking about the 5efhe's 110hp (cynos beta...basically the japanese 2nd gen)...and i believe the 2nd gen came with 93hp and 96lb.ft....though yeah its strange cause we have a distributor but horsepower is still rated at 93hp here....and i just found out that australian gen 2's also have the distributorless system....and they get jdm cars....hmmm....

oh and scutch, it didnt actually came with my 'seo :P i bought it off of a '94 'seo in america, then just put it in...worth the effort really

I drive a 93 Cynos B. No mods, don't know enough about cars - but would love to learn!!!

I live in Limerick and there are quite a few Cynoses in the Limerick/Clare area, none are visibly modded though.

If you can help with spares/parts and where to get them in Ireland I'd appreciate a reply...

I know the thread is a bit old..but I am the proud owner of a Cynos Juno EL52-4EFE. 98-first registered owner in Ireland-Yipee!.

Still rolling on 13 inch steel wheels. Only 69k kilometres.

Mine had a stoorage bin/armrest but it was just in the way-toook it off and what's below? A cup holder..+2 in the dash and 2 in the back armrests. I replaced the wipers with Bosch-had stock TOYOTA ones fitted.

Jeeez I'm on a modding frenzy...LOL.

[riko666]

lol, whoaaa boy better slow down before it gets to your head wow, that is quite a pristine mileage on your cynos...i wish mine could be a later model paseo too...just for the sake of lower mileage :( . and you're lucky, i had to put the cupholders in the dash on my own

On of the Sera club members has started a forum specifically for Irish Sera, Paseo and Cynos owners. http://www.iscpoc.drive.to

Shame about the adds in the middle of the topic but looks like a nice site.
