Sent from my LG-D855 using Tapatalk Yeah I have a few bits like that bookmarked from that site from a while ago but they certainly aren't cheap! Got performance bits that are prioritised over them at the moment :P I worked it out at roughly £160 for the silver dials and black centres and you may have customs charges on top of that too! Decided to stick with the £15 option that I took for now 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

savage bulldogs Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Gave it a dam good spanking while rinsing a 16 plate 7 series [emoji41] he was not a happy bunny after failing for the 3rd time trying to undertake my old shed spec scooby, he was punching his steering wheel and directing air traffic with his hands [emoji23] He probably had the last laugh though ....

savage bulldogs Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 It's a early 1994 v1sti which only weighed 1230kg when it left the factory. Although It's probably a bit heavier, due to the 6 speed and it's not running as many ponies as I'd like ..... it hit 359.9hp on the dyno in December and looks pretty much standard the outside [emoji4] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

savage bulldogs Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 @ Phill it's a aps sr40 (American stock location garret gt28rs ) which should make high 300's and it's making/holding boost fine . Tbh i made 347hp with the old tdo5 16g and standard engine [emoji41] so it's probably something that I've done that's holding it back lol . For £200 second hand turbo ,I can't moan and I'm happy with how the car goes , so i don't intend on buying another turbo ..... yet [emoji55] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

savage bulldogs Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Obviously all the v1/v2's are 20 yrs old , so condition plays a major part . My original engine was a sti long engine (hand built n blueprinted) with sti cams , forged pistons ( albeit the weakest ones ) and cdb from the factory. Mine was running 330hp fine for 5k but it ate 2 jdm ty52 5 speeds in 1k @ 347hp [emoji53] so I'd say 320hp /330hp would be about the limit on a healthy non sti engine and ty52 5 speed gearbox . Unless you've got the sti long engine and cash for a later ty54 or 6 speed conversion . Even then I've heard that once you pass 1.5 bar that the heads can "lift" causing the headgaskets to fail even on a freshly built classic standard engine . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rizmo Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Parked up outside newsagents, behind a lorry. Bought paper and, as leaving, heard a car alarm. Left shop and saw my car being pushed down the road, with the rear of the lorry embedded in front of car. Banged on lorry door to stop him, and we had a look, when he pulled forward. Could not believe that the only damage was a mangled number plate! Took to dealer, who checked it over, and could find no other damage. Can only put it down to the wet and greasy road and a downhill slope, allowing the car to slide, and the flexible front took some of the force. Lorry owners happy to buy me a new number plate!
