Impressive :y:

Could have done a lap in it whilst he was there ;)

Yep was a quiet lap until the last 1/3 of the lap. That was on Saturday when I was just getting my eye into it as well tbh Mark.

Yup you can indeed :)

Thanks bud, need to get saving now for next year and see if I can afford some extra power :)

Haha Nick asked me what time the transit did lol, unfortunately the track was closed over the whole weekend :(

looking good mate i cant wait to take my car one year with you, its going to be a good while as you no though! :)

i love this car!! the first 2 photos on the thread i love them. i also love how you keeped the thread going pretty much 3 years isi? well done mate i really do love your car!

Thanks for the comments again lads. Quick update to this thread...

Car had another mag feature earlier this year...











And the final picture I took of it with the old engine in...



Over the winter the car is under going some pretty big changes of which Sandy Brown will update for you all in due course :)

Time to wake this thread for 2012....

So I sold my previous engine to 'Nickhead', and fitted that to his car...





And fitted his satshifter...



My engine bay currently is empty...





And the car is soon to make the journey north to Marks for some sprucing up and fresh paint :D

When it's back I'll be fitting the new engine along with bits like;







:)

Im interested :)

I sense boost....

jay i don't i think its going to be something from the depths of colins workshop

I know what the tanned pork pie man is putting in

If you read my posts carefully from the last 6 months you would know ;)

I will be back in a few hours then....

like this mango alot :y: my car currently has a hole in the bay to atm awaiting new engine to arrive on tuesday

Good stuff!

Find anything Jay?! lol

I know as you told me out in Germany lol

One question though, how high is your rev limiter going to be? :)

shall i give jay a hint josh

*cough*sandy*cough*

Lol Alex....

Berg - High, but not as high as you might think to produce some good power :)

8kish??

8.5k is my bet

He's still reading....haha


Its a love hate with this thread as I love your car BUT...its a constant reminder of how nice my old mango could have been :n: Makes me miss it!

Screaming Stroker?? :D please please do this!

Definitely !!!!

what ever is happening.. its going to be expensive to be better than a bodied vts!

Not stroker... or not for this year anyway, maybe something to consider once i get bored of 200+ bhp i guess lol.

Gav was closest on the rev limiter :D

i wont know for few weeks yet as i need to get car out of the way ie built but may have some funds spare for a visit no promises atm tho

True... but well worth it when im chasing some crazy stuff at the ring, I think 8:30 BTG round the ring should be possible this summer :D

8:30 should be easy with the th spec now! A twingo rs on r888s and a few minor mods did it in 8:40

I'm not the stig you know lol

Please tell me you're B16b-ing this!

lol but practice makes perfect :D

B16 on bodies?

That would be fecking epic!!!

No, staying with a low mileage jp4 engine lads... It will be a screamer :D

Lambo V12? I just refuse to go over threads this long as i don't have time but doesn't this have the best part of 170bhp or something under its bonnet?

What was wrong with that? You haven't even had it that spec for long had you?
