Default Series 2 RS Turbo

Been thinking, got a lot of pictures scattered around the forum, but none as a collective, here's some of the best ones





























Bodywork:
Car was resprayed within the last 2 years in radiant red and is in amazing condition.
Wheels are 17" for softspokes, slightly damaged though sould do with a refurb, bt honestly, they're not THAT bad!
Its lowered 25mm all round too.
Bonnett Pins
Laguna Splitter

Spec:
The car has been converted to EFi and currently runs 151bhp and 174lbs/ft @ 10psi. It was tuned at Engine Advantages.
It has a stage 1 hybrid T3
stage 3 big valve head (built buy jamsport and only done around 4000 miles)
full stainless scorpion system (4" backbox and polybushed)
pipercross cone filter
front mounted intercooler
big alloy radiator
samcos
a fairly low mileage low comp bottom end
Cosworth 2wd disc conversion at the front
Cosworth 4wd disc conversion at the back.
Omex Rev Limiter wired in.
I'm sure theres some more that i've forgotten too.

Interior:
Standard RS interior in good condition, recaro's are geat but door cards slightly saggy.
Boost gauge and oil pressure gauge fitted in center console (where vents are/were).
Cd player, front clarion componenets and a Fli Sub.

Let me know what you think

Cheers, Steve.

Indeed. I've read a few bad write ups on this site, but since going there the cars feels totally different and i'm really happy with what Paul did, would definately go back there!

Yeah fitted a new cam and followers, cured the loud tappety sounds, there is still a slight knock but been told its just a slight bit of piston slap, nothing to worry about

Its not particulary good lol but wont cause any major damage, cossies suffer them, even for advise that is common and not something to worry about. It only happens when cold for a few seconds anyway while th oil goes round. I'm after 4k ono
