Hi Guys,


I am still lurking, so I sold my RX7 as it wasn't really my cup of tea and have gone back to what I know best, an Evo VI GSR.


My FD3s thread can be found here:


http://www.ukstarletowners.com/topic/89515-my-new-fd3s/



So the full specs so far are thus:



Stock Engine at 76k miles


Gizmo EBC @ 1.6bar


Stock ECU remapped


Walbro pump


ARC intercooler


Ganador Titanium Exhaust


18" OZ Superleggera (not my cup of tea, to be replaced soon).


Tein Lowering springs on standard shocks



Plans are just to remove the Gizmo and plumb the solenoid to the stock ECU and get Indigo GT to remap it to 1.5 bar boost.

Love evos and probably going to be my next car. But will be keeping the glanza for a while to come unless I can arrange some sort of deal for a decent one. I've always preferred 4/5's to the rest and will probably be one of those. Will look forward to seeing more mate! Anymore plans as to yet?

Bret.

Well they're two 660cc engines, so why would they be 2.7 Litres.

Anyway thanks for clarifying. He currently has an Evo 5

It's nice, but I think I prefer yours :D

Looking very swish!

Mine is a 1.3 on the log book mate and like you say 2 rotors at 660 so a 1.3 in reality. I think its just insurance companies that clas them as 2.7 for some starnge reason. :S

Evo look the balls mate! Was cosidering getting one before i bought the glanza.

Technically that's correct the cc does total to a 1.3 but its the power output that they produce is why insurance companies rate them to 2.6

Nice evo love the 6's best colour too :thumbsup:

There's a valid reason that insurance companies class them as a 2.7, they can't be measured in the same manner as a piston motor. This chap explains it better than me; http://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/off-topic-discussion/dispelling-the-rotary-displacement-myth/43487/page1/

That evos tidy as. Very much like.
