some fuckwit had built the engine from scrap metal apparently:
crank .75 gring, block, .5 bore, pistons standard ones machined, head standard!!

needless to say its getting a propper build now

Hello
i just work at Eclipse Performance round the corner so when the roads quiet i go that way.
i was on wessie way as i love coming full lock sideways off the roundabouts!
doesnt go too bad does it considering its only running standard turbo and injectors with 10psi, still the VXR couldnt catch me even though i did have the back wheels lit up.

after that i "raced" a L reg WRX RA off testo`s roundabout and lashed that untill i split a boost hose at 85 DOH! Scoobie still couldnt catch me on 4psi lol

Bad boy, rev limmiter is shyte to be honest but there is a difference between soft/hard and it starts slight "missfire" from about 400rpm before your set limmiter.
But its not connected as its crap and annoyed me so much lol!!

Hard as nails this car!
Loving the practical installed rev gauge! Easier to see the red line this way I assume?
Why is the driver's side innerwing silver rather than blue? something to do with under-bonnet temperatures??

Hi,
rev counter is mounted other way as standard cossie ones only got to 7000rpm but the car revs past 8000 so fitted one from another car, looks good dont it

had a few things painted today on the front end and i think its harder than a 13yr old with a crush on his school teacher!!!

pics tommorow, im sure you will like.

i`d swop my MO`s fro your RL7`s anytime
