SOo.... other cars you haved toy'd with then?

Sweet love it!!

Oh yeah, sorry. Not toyed with anything as of yet, only had it a week, half of that week i was working the other half i was away in London (whilst the car was at home), plus the area i live/work in is a quiet area with lots of older/mature people, so not many opportunities, lol.

Quick vid i done today:

I'll try and get a drive by vid soon.

Good man ;)

Sounds nice mate, looking forward to the next vid:y:

Sounds good man goes well

very under rated cars handling is superd enkei light weight alloys recaro interior sweet

wicked little car.

really nice to see something diferent!

sounds pretty sweet too!

good job, ill be keeping an eye on this...

Got the car dyno'd today.


The graph:

He said it's running more than 149bhp, this was the last run when the engine was hot, it's making more in the region of 155bhp, which is what it made on the first, cooler run.
It was running rich which he tweaked on the map today, now there isn't a strong smell of petrol in the car and wherever i go, lol.
The torque came out at 135lb ft, standard being 103lb ft.
I had a problem with it kangarooing a bit at low revs, he fiddled with something on the map to do with the idle and now it seems to drive smoother at low revs.

The guy running the car red lined it a couple of times, he got out of the car and said the revs climb really rapidly and caught him out a couple of times, lol.

Overall i'm pleased with the results. :D

I was the only person to get a decent run today, all the other cars had insane torque and were in the region of 500bhp + and the rollers didn't seem to like it, all the graphs showed the cars flat lining at 5000 - 5500rpm, i can't imagine all 3 cars with different set ups all had the same problem.

Other cars that ran today:
2 x Celica GT Fours
2 x MR2's
An RX 7 with a Supra engine, unable to run properly due to a problem with something quite small, can't remember what it was, some MAF thing.

Some pics:
















A few vids to come soon.

very nice car, bet it pulls strong, with it being lightweight :y:

I really like this need to get it to 200 bhp lol

Your car is making me want one so bad..... i dont really like these but yours is nice!! damn you!!!! lol

Ive been in my mates standard one yellow lol and it handled very well and pulled fairly well lol

Thanks. It does pull quite well, yes, lol. Weighs about a ton including driver, so it's about 150bhp/ton.

Thanks. 200bhp would be awesome but i think i'd have to plough a lot more money into it for that.

Thank you. Handling is really what this car is about for many people, it's great fun to drive if you can look past the styling.

Next mods:
Braided brake lines,
Yellowstuff pads,
Maybe new discs,
Uprated clutch, not sure which yet, Greddy, Exedy or SuzukiSport.

Left in my shed/garage to fit:
Lightweight crank pulley,
Front, middle and rear anti roll bars,
Enkei split rims.

I saw ignis and chuckled...read is, and you owned the fuck out of me!
Im inpressed, looks fuckin mint, and impressive dyno figures!

All the new plans sound good, i wouldnt of thought the handling would of been great with the height of the car, so interesting to know how the strut braces, bigger wheels, and soon to be brakes effect it.

Ill be back to look again! This is mint!

Glad you like it. :A:
The surprising thing is the decent handling, looking at it you wouldn't think so.
Check out this review (also look at the number plates, it's my car!)

"Show the Ignis Sport a sequence of corners and you'll come out the other side in disbelief, swing it around and do it again, but 20mph faster."

"It is also worth noting that the chassis is stiffer than a pervert in a branch of Ann Summers."

cool figures on the dyno:clapping:how much psi was it running??

really nice car

how much have you spent as it seems a huge amount you have spent to still only have small power, dont get me wrong it looks awesome, however surely now there is alot more power to be had out of it ??

It's currently running 6psi.
Btw join up on http://z13.invisionfree.com/sisoc ;)

Thanks.
I have spent a fair bit on the car, more than i got the car for anyway, not sure exactly how much, all the parts i've bought are second hand to keep the costs down. TBH though the supercharger did cost more to fit than originally expected, there were a few issues with the ecu, and other bits and bobs popped up that we didn't expect.
I know it's only small power but it does weigh about a ton which helps it along a bit, the main reason though was to be different i guess, i went to Japfest earlier this year and there were 2 of these cars, one being mine, i can almost guarantee there wont be another supercharged one at Japfest or any other car show next year.
Another reason is i'm getting this sort of thing done before i grow up to much and settle down, lol.

What will it take to get the boost up mate?
