Default Cosworth Pug 206

Came across this on a local bodyshop Forum

Apparently will be around 500bhp 4x4

http://www.sbs-bodystyling.co.uk/vie...t=1804&start=0

Think previously it was around 340Bhp 4x4

Before

Very nice.
My mate is building a 206 with a RB26 lump and running gear at the moment.

Not a great advert for a bodyshop, they are some hideous panel gaps and kit fitment. Looks gash but the mechanics are probably quite impressive

No pics as of yet. He is eventually gonna put a thread up on www.jdmgarageuk.com forum. If i get some pics of him i'll put them up.
Work has stopped him from doing much more to it at the mo but should be wild when its done. He wants to get it up to around 600-800bhp but he has unlimited time on it so is gonna be a few years i'd expect.

the car looks nothing like that now as thats how it was when he bought it, he has striped it down to a bare shell and is on with rebuilding and upgrading everything. Last time i spoke to him he said it owes him 40k so far.

Yea he will be, he already has the donor car i think so he'll sort it all out. He is a bloody clever bloke and has brilliant craftmanship so i cant wait to see the quality

i think the bodykit is designed like that?- the wings look slightly higher than the bonnet making the gaps look strange- it was always more of a case of function over form for the rally boys

i like it a lot
