ollie ryan Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 been tempted by one of these for ageswhat are the like? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Joshua.J Posted June 9, 2011 Author Share Posted June 9, 2011 Brilliant, mods are expensive and exclusive. But running them is cheap as chips i get 50+mpg on motorway and 40+ around town thats with it at this high modded spec.As for the power brilliant! got a lot higher top end than the glanza v so keeps pulling to 140mph with a big kick in the back all the way, handling is a lot better and the general feel(nice and comfy to drive) ohh and the exhaust sounds like a machine gun lolNearly forgot....remove the pill(de-ristrict it),exhaust,air filter,remap you will have 190bhp . Its just 210+ when u need bigger spending. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Johnboy GT Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 And here was me thinking it was gonna be an Evo 3 or the likes! That looks mint mate! Great economy aswell from such a little car with alot of power!Nice one bud! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Joshua.J Posted June 9, 2011 Author Share Posted June 9, 2011 Cheers Johnboy!, haha it gives a lot of evos a run for there money just non of the high end running costs of an evo lol. With seats removed and a few back trims it came in at 935KGs on the weigh bridge stock is 1070KG. Got a lot more to do to it, including-One of JDM bodykit being imported-New alloys dont no which yet-Remap tweek 250-280bhp at all the time-Bucket seats-Maybe a colour change(midnight purple) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ollie ryan Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 how reliable are these then? quite tempted now but would need it running over 200bhp Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Johnboy GT Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 What exactly are they though? And when did they start being produced? Definetly looks the part though! Would damn near consider one to run to my work with that economy, cause i reckon my van gets me 40ish mpg! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Joshua.J Posted June 9, 2011 Author Share Posted June 9, 2011 Haha yes its a colt CZT very cheap now to buy. Or the newer 09 model is the colt ralliart. My mate was running it like this for the past 2yearsish and never had a thing go wrong, i did some research and nothing came back as a common problem. But defo the economy on it is mad! i thought the computer was out but my scanguage 2 shows the same reading as the computer.Didnt think many people would like it on here Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Joshua.J Posted June 9, 2011 Author Share Posted June 9, 2011 Yer standard 16" wheels any smaller wont fit over the brakes, was thinking 17 and camber is possible been looking at grids. Yer i think i may just get them resprayed for now until i get the set of wheels i want.Haha hello starbuck, sorry about always making it pop as i go past you Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 LOL I was expecting an Evo and seen the power figures and was like :DFairplay must be a little animal!Looks good apart from the butchered front bumper, doesnt suit the type of car IMO. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Joshua.J Posted June 9, 2011 Author Share Posted June 9, 2011 I know sparky not liking the front bumper myself but certainly gets the looks lol...currently in the process of ordering this from Japan! ralliart/mitis wont sell the kit in this county Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Joshua.J Posted June 9, 2011 Author Share Posted June 9, 2011 So hard sourcing the kit but got someone who should hopefully have it for me, if you look side on it comes out into a point like on the evo 8/9. Plus the rear bumper has a lovely diffuser in it Cheers for all the nice comments Quote Link to post Share on other sites
