i think you may be dissapointed with it if you wanted a big powered 2wd car.

i plan to put the wheels from my saff on it to as i think it would look cool

thanks

i had a 95 st diamond white lux, they look stunning going
down the road.
if you have never drove one before its a amazing feeling seeing
the big spoiler in your rear view,and the size of them big arches
in your side mirrors

The offset of the wheels will mean that the saff wheels will sit right inside the arches making it look silly If you notice, escort wheels on a saff/3door stick miles out of the arches.

looks a very nice motor though mate, people slate small turbos, you will find apart from long striaght line blasts, your car will murder a LOT of supposedly biggger power cars , they are deceptivly fast

Also, there is a bit of work going on at MSD at the moment, hopefully we will be seeing 350ish BHP & torque to match, with the std management and a bigger turbo and new set of injectors fairly soon

look forward to seeing your car at a meet soon , you go to the hopwood on a tues night when its on? Also the black country RSOC is just up the road from you

Is this Stuart's car off the RSOC BB, if so it's a proper concours car!
