@andrewj1680 Imprezas a quality car. My mate has a Type R Limited. Stunning car.
His girlfriend has a spec c which absolutely blows me away.
Amazing cars.
-
@Calum the type R are stunning and only going up in value by the day mine was running 289bhp had the bigger turbo the td05 a blitz nurspec exhaust and a simtek ecu it rightly and felt like a roller coaster ride on boost but still think around town my little starlet would of run rings round it
-
@andrewj1680 His and her Scoobies are 320 stock.
Quality motors, what you driving these days
-
I have a evo 6 running 376.6 bhp for weekends and a Mondeo st tdci as a every day car 2 totally different cars lol the evo is hard basic but fast and the Mondeo comfy and smooth, toying with the idea of rebuilding the evo through the winter just as apparently for anymore power I have to forge it as they tend to throw rods so im told
-
@andrewj1680 Aww yeah that's well nice.
Mines the middle one, fully forged front mount and exhaust. Other than that it's bone stock.

not as clean as yours but potential is there -
@andrewj1680 You are running 380 bhp on the stock manifold? That is impressive.

its got bigger injectors but the inlet is standard otherwise -
@CYBER-NINJA Better clutch feel, easier to use and the better ones are self adjusting. No more fettling the clutch perch.
If you have ever driven a Japanese car then you will understand. Most Jap cars from the 60's up come standard with hydraulic clutch. It's only now that the VW crew catching up.
just catching up.. my 96 mk3 golf has one
dam car thread i'm going to need to upload photos of my turbo mk3 now
-
@gareth_iowc Sorry, but those MK3 Golfs are absolutely WANK!
The GTi that is. Absolutely shocking car.

Pretty sure they went back to cable clutch on the mk4.
Regardless the Datsun 240z was OHC Timing Chain engine with hydraulic clutch way back in the sixties.
-
Think we pretty much stole someone's thread with our cars, I didn't get on with the mk3 golf Either, my vr6 spat it's head gasket on the left rear corner apparently it's a common fault, and my gti was slow as shit all noise and no go, 1 car I do wish I'd kept was a mk3 astra gsi the phase 2 I put a calibra turbo engine in I have a video somewhere on the dyno
-
@andrewj1680 Yeah I know a lad who did that near me, although it was with the mk1. Something around 370 bhp, which I thought was rather tame, but he said the fact the car weighed next to nothing meant it went like shit off a shovel
