nah not a member yet,but my brother is,if its that much of a pig to do i might let someone else fit it

heres a pic

very nice sanchez,ive also just bought an s2000(so much to buying a sensible car) as the misses persuaded me.

ive never owned a car with so many tuning options,and then theres the prices

but because the misses loves it that much,she said i can get what ever i want for it

forced induction here i come

are you fitting the clutch?what sort of a job is it?

Glad to hear you haven't given up on it,what turbo are you gonna be using?

I took mine out the other day after doing a hydraulic clutch conversion,and I can honestly say 5e + tdo4 is a good combo.

My auntie worked on cruise ships as a beautician,and she hated it,also it was a agreed contract(don't really know the details)but she ended up haveing to work 5 years on the ships.I know she spent alot of the time going to calafornia,but she said she hardly had any time to enjoy herself as it was long hours,the only thing I do know is she managed to save enough money to pay a 60% deposit for a house( that was her goal ) she's now teaching in a college and never looked back

Oh yeah she did a faceial on rod Stewart while on the ships,and said he has a face like a prune lol

my brother felt the same with his glanza,so he sold it and bought an mg zr as a runaround.that lasted 6 months then he realised he wanted another fast car so bought an mr2turbo,4 months later the engine went bang in a big way.so he bought a 1.2 clio as a run around and swore he would never get into fast cars again

so now he has an s2000,which he said he would never chuck money at.but it was only last night i caught him e-mailing someone about a supercharger kit ;)

i think once you have been there its hard to get out of it.

very nice,my dad also has a noble.its the m12 gto 3r,and its running 470bhp (x2 t28 vnt turbos,modified manifolds,ap clutch,pro alloy double capacity intercooler,etc)and to say its quick is an understatement.but the most impressive thing about the car is,there is hardly any turbo lag(put your foot down in 5th at low rpm and it just goes)

also i have never driven a car where the steering is so positive

you will love it

What about a baffled sump??

Why do women hate cars so much, I'm coming to the point where I'm going to be single soon

Cheer up mate, might be a good thing, you might look back one day and be glad.

Who knows mate, hope it all works out ok

i was pretty lucky,my lass loved cars infact when i had a race,she used to winge about me slowing down 11 years on and things are different.she hates going fast now(must be an age thing)

the best to do when you split from your lass is join plenty of fish.com,lol

im not jokeing either.my bro joined after splitting up with his lass and he meets 3 birds a week (sex wiv no strings attacthed) never seen the lad so happy

well kinda, i run federal 595 RS-R's on my car all the time, which are a semi slick, but i wanna try them, try break into the 11'sand go as far as they will take me, and if i cant get it under a 12 flat, i will go to the MT et streets and see how much better they are, before going all out on a full race slick

realistically, i am not aiming for times as much, because i cant go to a local drag strip the nearest one is 400km away and its crap, so the next closest is almost 1000km away but it is a really well prepped track..... and besides drag racing doesnt really interest me in any way, im mainly going for the trap speeds, as the top end is what gives u the indication of a tough street car

to be fair it's trap speeds that only interest me to,as it can tell you how much bhp a car has and ultimately which is the quicker car once on the move.

My 5efte r5 is getting mapped a week on Friday so hopefully I can get to the first rwyb at York dragway and see what it does

It was done at rtoc national day.infront of eveyone from the club,so I'm guessing it's accurate,so your aiming for sub 11.5 on road tyres??good luck if you are

what slicks did u use??? the only times i have been i have run a normal street tyre, drove 400km there, raced, and then drove 400km home lol...

next time im going to have some full slicks and more power so im aiming to trap at about 125mph+ with the new turbo and tuning

i would of thought if a 5 gt turbo can do an 11sec run @ 111mph then a starlet should be capable of doing it????

Not a Golf, but I've driven a 2004 A4 1.8T S-Line, same engine right?

It wasn't nippy off the line seeing as it's FWD and heavy, but once it got going it felt fast. The quality inside is second to none being an Audi but I felt the handling let it down as it was a bit rolly

thats exactly what his golf was like on the corners

really need some help guys,i seem to be missing a gearbox mount bolt its one of the two that bolt the bracket to the front of the gearbox.does anyone have a spare one lyeing around or even know the size

steve

has anybody had any experience with a golf 20v t? what are they like my mate mite be swapping one for his b16a civic

My mate had a 150bhp 20vt golf and it was slow so he got it chipped and it went to 180bhp and it was still slow.there a big heavy car that need a lot of power to be quick,good engine though

Haha that was the worst pain I have ever experianced in my life(and I have broken bones before) couldn't see for 15min

oh well ya live and learn(should have had safety gigs on lol)

Yeah it was me,turbos still going strong:-)

I'm sure it would of been mine.as far as I know it's the only r5 with a 5efte engine,the vid was when it had the 4e engine running 1bar

hahaha mad!

bet thats faster than quite a few people think a 5 would be

hopefully but it still wont be near as quick as the top 5 fastest r5 gt turbos

Love it. I always wanted one of those. Its looks unspoilt as well. Nice

cheers mate,the only bit im not happy about is haveing to cut the front bumper for the chargecooler pre rad.it brought a tear to my eye

thought i would share a few pics of my 5 gt turbo.its nearly ready to have the map tweaked and the boost upped,just afew little bits and bobs to do

hope you enjoy

The bloke that does my mapping has turbocharged his 182 engine and last time I saw it on the rollers it made 550bhp.I'm sure even more this year.

There's a few guys on rtoc running low boost and makeing decent power

I'm

sure it would be possible to get 250bhp in n/a form

IMO they are a really good car,handle well,look good

RX7 is awsome apart from the fact theres a gay v8 in it

corvette ls1 engines are awesome,and as much as i luv rx7s the ls1 engine is better than the rotary.

that spoiler looks awesome,are you planning on using that silicon hose on your breather setup??only reason i ask is i have seen it swell up before as its not compatible with oil,thats why your oil drain hose will be teflon coated inside

been driveing 11 years,and these are the cars in order

escort xr3i cab (the birds loved it sadly i never)

red r5 gtt

blue(raider) r5 gtt

white r5 gtt

alpine gta v6 turbo

grey r5 gtt

my current car black phase 1 r5 gtt

and not a toyota in sight

awesome cars 850r,s,tried to talk the misses into one for a daily family wagon.she said not a chance ;)

apparently a simple chip upgrade takes them to 300bhp,and if you buy an ex police car,it already has this fitted
