Uk turbo was badged Turbo2000 and the imports were wrx though the newer bug eye scoobs onwards, the uk's were called the wrx, all 'classic' shape uk sciibs were called the Turbo2000 I was lucky to own a nice red classic uk Scoob, which had the original Prodrive pack, still miss it now :(

prefere the std white one with 19's i have in at the moment

Lol in fact il do you a favour and il swap it for mine ;)

Meh.... suppose its alright ;)

Looks good at that height mate, you dont want a back lane warrior low lol, thats why mines quick down the back lanes it just soaks up all the bumps perfectly

il have a look now fella :)

Cheers mate, turned on 133k this morning lol

RWD? na its a myth mate, that pic above the car is parked, there is a really strong fan just out of shot to the right

yes, that could well be whats happened, normally non-renault exhausts will have a name (janspeed, milltek etc) written on or stamped on the exhaust, have you tried looking for any markings or numbers on it?

Hi, the catalyst is standard, i do not think the exhaust is milteck, due to the tailpipe design, but i could be wrong

looks nice that low mate

Brinkworth, about a week ago, Vee looked AMAZING!

who mapped it fella?

Look at Fabia vRS's, regularly run mid 14's on the 1/4, id say thats not very slow And bhp on its own is pub talk, its torque and bhp combined in the right way that makes a car fast

true mate,like i said i dont mean any nastiness towards you or anybody, im just fed up with about 5 posts being on topic and 100 being off topic how in other conditions it would have been different, which, lets be honest we all know that anyway :)

But this is the whole point!!!!!!!!! I wasnt pre arraged, yes the outcome might have been different if it was planned, but it wasnt, he simply states that in this instance he won! There is no need for anyone to say 'yeah but if this happened' or 'if that happened it would be different' Thats...

Lol oh this has made me giggle. Lets get one thing straight here: He raced a 197. He beat a 197. It doesnt matter if the 197 missed a gear/couldnt drive etc etc blah blah so on and so forth. He beat it in this instance. I dont think any of you realise how much torque that is, yes...

lol thats simply the engine 'coming on cam' matey, the VVT clicks in at circa 1800 rpm and cuts out at 6500 i think from memory (?) and is to help driveability at low revs, and emissions :) Its plastered everywhere that the 5k kick thing is VVT, in fact a chap i was talking to the other day...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tiHDHdMW77k A quick bit of footage of me at Kemble, having a mess about learning the course. I know my lines were not very good, and alot of understeer, but i will say i didn't have my head down, just having a mess about. Got it quite well by the end of the...

i think i might have a spare speedo sensor if you need one too mate il have a look

oh you :o Big love for Danny xx

4.9 to 60, not 4.6, still bloody impressive if that is the real time

course you will have to get a high miler ;)

do you mean Ph1s matey? They dont have a mech, they have elec, but witha speed sensor in the box, ph2's take the speed from the abs rings, so no sensor in box

as long as its been looked after it should be ok mate, but as we have not seen the car we can only generally comment. My 172 is swiftly coming up on 133,000 miles and still runs really well, this one your talking about may be going but could be on its last legs,if it had a well serviced, not...

It all depends if your buying it for fun, or if you want to get as fast a lap time as you can, and of course fun. If you want it for fun id by a ph1, we all know in the right hands a cup should be faster round a track, but as stated for the price difference id buy a decent, cheap Ph1, strip...

Agreed mate! Would be so much better, though then they would be competeing with the independants (Rentech, Ktec etc)

if you press your mileage reset button it will bring up your oil level, only when the oil ok message is being displayed

As Chris has said they did make a 1.4 VTR in Europe, but it was never officially sold over here, so either an import or its a fake
