  1. Just so happens I have one for sale..
  2. I have a not quite so cheap Schrick Manifold for Sale in the classified section. But it comes with 5 months warrantee at stealth!
  3. Yes you do. They don't need to be Hubcentric. 3mm spacers are fine, and don't forget you can adjust the position of the wheels slightly too.. (don't ask me how though..)
  4. AS we all know, PMs have gone. If you PM'd me the last couple of days regarding the stuff you want to buy, please do so again, as I probably haven't read it yet! Cheers guys.

    Bye bye VW

    I'm presuming your 'Supe' was a Supra? My dad had the 3ltr Auto and it was awsome upto 100 mph, it's really over that where the Turbos have the huge advantage. Thanks for the info on overdrive, there's naff all on the net about it..

    Well I've not actually got the car yet. Will be another 3 weeks - I asked for a few asthetics, the tracking and the timing belt and service to be done as part of the deal. Performace wise, I've driven a few.. considering there are only 4 speeds on the autobox, the kickdown is smooth yet you really feel every one of those 300 ponies as you accelerate. I'm yet to drive one in the faster mode yet though.. I've got zero experience with automatics, but I believe the overdrive adjusts the ratios of the gearbox for improved acceleration at the flick of a switch (someone correct me if I'm wrong) hen

    The car has been going to the same garage since it was imported in 97'. So I managed to get a full report from the guy who's been looking after it after I checked out the invoices for work on the car and did my research. I'll be honest guys.. the VR6 was never reliable, so if the ZX has problems it will be nothing new for me. Automatic appeals to me at the moment, I put a lot of miles AND work into the golf and now I just want something that's easier to drive and run, but still has the performance to match. At the end of the day, a 300bhp Sports Car is going to run hot, you just have to check

    aye.. automatic with OVERDRIVE.. In terms of costs.. I've done my research, and to be fair, some things are cheaper than VR6 parts. It had a new engine 20,000 miles ago too.. I found a good mechanic/enthusiast locally so it's all good.

    Well the time has come to say goodbye to VWs for a while.. here's what I'm defecting to: She's a 3ltr 24v Twin Turbo Nissan 300zx. 300bhp as Standard, with a Nice Subtle Body Kit in Pearl White and Leather/Alacantra Interior. And before you say it.. YES.. I'll be back. As soon as R32s become better value, I'll be back around I'm sure. Everyone that is buying the modifications from my VR6 have made an excellent aquisition and I'll pop in from time to time to see how you are getting on with them. Don't forget - The Schrick Manifold is still for sale, and my STANDARD VR6 will be too once it's
  12. Awesome do a Neuspeed Pulley kit. It includes a lighter pulley for EACH of your ancillaries. Not cheap, but you'll find a BIG difference in responce and a big drop in Transmission losses = larger wheel BHP [ Edited Tue Nov 16 2004, 04:24PM ]
  13. My mate had a WRX same as Antera's, He'd got some kind of special ECU fitted to it too. He spent another couple of grand on it after that too. I decided on the charger, but didn't tell anyone.. waited the standard 500 miles to run the charger in then challenged him to a race. He laughed at me thinking he was racing a standard VR and his face was a picture once I'd blown him out of the water! He's just bought a new shape STi on a 52 plate I think and it's so much prettier than his old one. The lag is awful though, and considering it is the 280bhp version, I was disappointed with it when I drov
  14. I don't see what difference the design of the charger makes to the other parts you use? Surely, all chargers have to be mounted and connected in the same way?
  15. I second this statement. At least you got a reply to your e-mail..
