Car is looking really good mate, 114bhp at the flywheel though

cheers to everyone for such pleasant comments

why chose 330cc injectors?

my old injectors are showing signs of age. i wouldnt want the car mapped on them. pointless buying new standard ones when i can upgrade. the cams going in can run on stock cc vts injectors but i now have scope for further upgrades. i also got them at £150 brand new, sealed packaging, delivered. rude to say no

regarding the rear bumper mod. i have noticed a few extra mph top end speeds. i can hit 120 at bedford gt.

oh and the camera is a cheap old sony, just fit a large memory card cheap option and simple. i have made a bracket from the cage.

as you can see i own a vtr and a scooby.

the misses takes the vtr on track too. its lowered on spax, omp pads all round, ind kit and a scorpion bb.

the vtr was bought so i could lay up the vts for track only.

yes i have x2 sets of superleggeras

pinching them back to as i need thme to fit some wet tyres (toyo R1R). going to fit my spare red rota wheels back on the vtr tho.

scooby. 350bhp, 12.65 sec 1/4 mile daily drive. owned 6.5 years love it!

bought as a standard classic 1993 scooby wrx import

it has had many faces

when i bought the car all i wanted to do was drag racing in it. after a 30-40 runs realising that drag is all about how big your wallet is i got into the track day thing and left the scoob as a daily drive.

wasnt long before the bodywork started to look tired so 2.5 years ago i went mad on re-styling the car.

the last picture i look of it before the re-style

pictured next to my old 16v xsi

and before anyone says the skirts are huge... i love them

it has seen cadwell park. quite a treat to drive this but highly unlike to see again on track.

re-furbished the brakes last year.

id write a spec list but it goes on and on lol. just class it as fully loaded on group n bilsten

loudandproud205 · 27th January 2011, 19:14

Still not sold on the scooby rear lights

Should have got another XSi thou

awesome cars dude... wish i had a spray gun to do some colouring bits like wheels etc lol

sexy_gt · 30th January 2011, 18:56

cams are in and i have done run in process. not driven the car as i need to fit new cam seals. the ones i have was fine but due to being missinformed about the fitting of them i will destroy them when removing them. need to buy new ones again!

at 1st the car did sound a little tappy but given they are new cams and the lifters are dry. 5-8 minutes into the bed in process they quietened down.

after a 15minute run in at 2,200 the car now sounds smooth and quiet. it even idles fine at 800 rpm bizzare! i thought cat 708 idled badly?

wont get to work on the car again till mid week. possibly even as late as friday

the car is supposed to be getting mapped the next day!

sexy_gt · 31st January 2011, 17:07

picking up new cam seals tomorrow

VTSjames · 4th February 2011, 21:18

hope all is going well

james

sexy_gt · 5th February 2011, 08:44
