Its my dads! Im insured just for 2 weeks whilst my problematic clio is getting sorted. Its the same one for sale, being replaced by a different coloured one with slightly better spec and an Audi V6 TT, both arriving september! I go to weatherspoons quite a lot, i used to go to bexleyheath but...

I think i remember it being on top gear too. They were quite pleased that it disguised its bulk so well (commadore) and i think in the magazine they would choose it over an M5, not bad for a vauxhall!

Ive noticed it, its ridiculous, i think the mk1s are grp 16 and the new ones 17. Try directline, theyre pretty good. My premium on my 1.2 is ridiculous, coming up to £3,000. I have been driving in my dads M3 whilst my clio is having diagnostic checking and like since yesterday, if it werent for...

Sweet 17

lol! I see quite a lot of races there when i go up there saturday nights for a drink, theyre always gone before the police see them as it turns into a more urban area after that stretch of road. No cameras either until youre quite far down.

Look in your yellow pages. Dont get tinted film!

Like my dads brabus smart!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ive just read autoexpress.. I thought i was on about the commadore, which is an M5 rival but what i saw was a monaro. This has 307bhp (pretty poor for a 5.7 V8!) and is quite a bit smaller than the commadore and as Dan said an M3 rival. 0-60 is about 6.5. Autoexpress reckon the 330 bm is...

Yeah we can have a drag from round the corner of the police station near the broadway and carry on going down the road alongside the shopping centre as its about half a mile of 2 laned straight road ;)

I dont know to much about the science of Dump valves on NA cars. All i know is you DEFINETLY can get them. I saw a letter written into one of the modified car mags last year, i found a company whilst doing some research on it soon after but i cant find their details!

Superchargers sound like hoovers. TBs are the way to..they sound evil. Or some rich bastid get both!!

I was going to say.. Im going to be doing a bit of midnight racing in the M3 tonight as im insured for another 12 days, ill try and find you!!

Theyre all sh*t though..xr3is, rs turbos, fiesta turbos, handling is laughable and besides the fezza, standard ones are slow too.

_KDF you can get dump valves for NA cars, but you will loose power and youll need to do a lot of looking about to find someone who has them.

Not as far as i know, theres been a couple of threads about companies who have done them. Are BB Tuing gonna be doing one??

cool, you going to bad boy your bonnet too?

I know some people like that wide arch look but i think its kitcar-ish Id be a bit dubious fiddling with a car which is well over 20 years old!

I meant initially the turbo was used in track cars (known as a coupe) then brought it out onto the road cars once the mk1 golf arrived. Im pretty sure they were alpines, on the continent at least and were called gordinis over here because there was already the chrysler alpine. Its interesting...

Whats it like? I saw one like yours with the carzone kit on it, i hate to say it but it looked good in the flesh :oops: though the back bumper is pointless, too many holes and its too big.

Birds like nice interiors so thats probably the reason!

Nope. As far as i know they turbod it just for the track and then the mk 1 gold came along so they brought out the turbos. Thought dont quote me on any of this.. The sort of legend 5 is the Renault 5 Turbo 1. This had the wide arch kit with 160bhp, homoglation for the rally cars i guess. Then...

Not suprised, what you meshing anywho?

Cant you vary the power on them though? I dont want my car to look as bad as yours steve ;)

The actual 1600 rally car has a different body altogther, nothing like that one

Try and get aluminum or specially coated stuff which wont rust!

Which is why you should learn this on a track and not on the road.
