Pritty crap for what it is lol
But meh if i wanted speed i would of stayed with the motorbikes,
When i get a job it wont be a 1.4 no longer
you planning on swapping the engine? or getting a bigger car?
I want to get mine rr'd again when its back on the road so I can see if I've made an improvement on power and torque.
My 0-60 time was about the same.
Bah its not "too" bad, it has a big advantage anyway, at least the engine bay has tons of room to work in, the big derv lump and intercooler in mine leaves virtually no space to do any work in without having to remove mulitple things to make access easier lol.
Anyway, I know of plenty of Corsa's and the like that would struggle to keep up with that haha!
HAHA Cheers matt
Joe, I do have a bigger engine planned, Lets just say coupe
mmmm nice turbo coupe
va va voom
no just the turbo not the coupe lol
Yes im planning on a 2.0 20v turbo engine out a fiat coupe
i c a few more clouds clear from my visions now haha
i aint confused no more
Lmao, Ill be on them clouds when i put the engine in lmao
haha husten we have unidentified aircraft we beleive it to be a red fiat bravo
LMFAO.
My car was between £10,000 - £16,000 Brand new lol
Mine was probs about £10,000 ish has i only have the S not the SX or hgt etc etc
it not too expensive brand new then tbh is it compared to others lol

I can just see that being you and Ben in your car Sean lol.
class, how much are the engines and looms and tuboes and mounts etc goin 4, in other words, how much could this cost
I seen one on ebay the other day for £700, But im looking at buying a hole coupe with a back ender or sumat, might be cheaper and then i can have seats etc etc out of it.
yer, thats prop you best bet, then you have everything you need innit !, and you can sell bits of the car off aswell
Yeah cause i will have the breaks etc etc, As i dont think a 2L turbo lump will stop quick with my tiny front discs and rear drums lmao
Just got to get a job now and save then i can do it
hmm..still of the opinion you cant polish a turd....
get something that you can uprate/upgrade...without huge inconvience/expense....
I Love my car tho its just too slow for me lol
forget it and just buy my fto once repaired ya got yaself a bloody nice little car (a few extra mods) very quick aswell
And how much would this FTO cost me lol ?
Which FT-Slow
Is it? GPX? GR? .....
Im thinking about selling my car anyways as im bored and want a change lol
Which FT-Slow
Is it? GPX? GR? .....
Lol, thats what I was thinking, everyone always says they are slow for some reason? Or is it just the lower end one thats sluggish?
I dont know much about em meself, but ive noticed the term FTSlow on quite a few occasions.
Is it the GTO witch is the better one ?
Which FT-Slow
Is it? GPX? GR? .....
i heard that they are no faster than a Mondeo !

Dont know what model them speeds are for tho lol
The GT-Slow is a 3.0 twin turbo, 300bhp, but they weigh close to 2 tonnes
- their power to weight is never very impressive.
The FT-Slows boast decent bhp figures, but they never seem to put any of the performance on the road - they are also very very hard to tune for more power...
I wont even go in to how hard both are to work on...
the fto's need more torque. bolt a turbo on them, that will make them quicker.

indeed.
Last time I had it rr'd, it was 103.75bhp and 81.30Nm as standard (apart from a Stuy Mac Special
).
Now I have high performance cams, recon head, de-cat and K&N
doubt it'll be a big gain though
Every little helps mate
Last time I had it rr'd, it was 103.75bhp and 81.30Nm as standard (apart from a Stuy Mac Special

That cae had 3.75bhp std, the StuyMac Special is worth 100bhp all day
it felt like 3.75 before
Sean, you need to start an MMC for your new car
...as for std figures - I cant remember the last std car I had
I know i do mate, But its jsut to cold to wash it and it aint been washed for months, So i aint taking pics till i wash her haha
