havent really updated this thread in ages
needs to be updated
so update time.
well:
1st i did turbo the thing, 1 and half years ago
i decided to go for a 1.9 cvh turbo stage 3 tall block
with a t34 black injectors etc etc with a live map from
ahmed at grove garage top guys made my car run so sweet..
then i changed the wheels to my runners at the time
didnt really like them so back on came the image rims
Few pics of the Brunters Fiesta Thrash Last Year
i have changed the mirrors since these pics the mk3.5 mirrors which are smoothed into the base plates
also done some things to the interior to make it nice and clean
black carpet, flocked bits,more todo though
a bit of a rally look going on,
todo list
cage it
retrim the seats
smoothover some small bits on the car
and just give it a tidy up in certain areas
engine bay clean and tidy up things
engine wise not going to bother doing anything more, its more than enough for me just going to maintain it and get it running sweet and 100% to is potential
i would like to get my 1/4 mile down to 13.5 this year
will look into diff springs on my coilovers and semi slicks
for the summer
personal best so far is:
13.769 @ 109.57Mph Top Speed Run 146.8Mph
needs to be updated

Looks quality mate, Top looking mk3.
What mirrors did you go for? I was gonna suggest a set of m5 mirrors, would look tasty on your car and go with the look better.
If you can get hold of a set, but Euro rear lights would finish the outside of the car off..
still look good as it is now though.

98 DB is the noise limit, so we had to stick that on, it did reduced the limit and was fine thats the problem with high powered na cars there to loud with a straight through system,hes running 175bhp mental driver and car.
- My mates blue carrado was there aswell a 20vT 270bhp...
- that black golf with black wheels was so mean and super quick think it was a 20v t or 16v T was good to see some fords there doing alrighty
- As for mine its 260bhp @ 18 psi.. really need to sort out the handling better tyres,stiffer springs,better bushes and weld on cage should help me alot with the handling and maybe skinner wheels
- what car where you in and group? theres loads pics and vids on clubgti
