my brothers r5 gtt went in for a respray 2months back and this is how its come out.

it used to be titanium grey with silver wheels.
its now in a one-off orange/gold with a gold pearl, anthracite wheels with body colour detailing, anthracite bonnet with body colour chequers over the o/s of the bonnet. it has been sprayed inside and out inc engine bay and inside the wheel arches. the work carried out is second to none and the finish is immaculate!

all in it cost him £1500 i think to get all the work done inc 2x new sills, 2x new doors, new scuttle panel, new tailgate, brand new genuine arches, skirts and front bumper, custom side exit exhaust converted from a k-tec system.

the car has a big engine spec but i can never remember it but its been rr'd at 202bhp @ 6235rpm and 203lbft @4446rpm at jamsport (broster might of seen it down there?)

yo... sorry for the thread bump..

just fort i'd settle the score, as its my lill car..

yeah they are ACE 198's in a 16" with 195/40/16 pirelli pzeros, absolutely no scrubbage even get full lock and its lowered about 80mm

it was last dyno'd at 213bhp and 222lb/ft, runs 27psi of boost, and ran a 13.7 1/4mile at 185bhp/18psi last year, hoping to get into the 12's once the new cam is in.

here is some better pics:

carb was set up by ms motorsport last year, cant remember what jets and cant ask ms as they are now gone.

made 202bhp and 203lb/ft when it was set up, with a 0.5 water injection jet, and it was flattening out the power curve so just changed it to a 0.4 and gained 11bhp and 19 lb/ft for £14.99..... bonus! lol

if ya gonna keep ya 5, i'd really reccomend joining the http://www.rtoc.org as its only £10 a year and well worth that in discounts and help from other members, bit like passion ford but cheaper on the old road tax (1.4 geddit )

anyways dude, anythin else just fire away dude i'll help as much as i can its always good to see another 5 back on the road
