Big Steve to put da RB in da weeds, mint bruv ;-)

152 :love:

Mine made 212bhp peak and nice flat torque curve (159lbft peak) with 197 cams with 8 degree advance on inlet cam (no idea what group n means, actual degrees is what you need to know) supporting mods of rs2 inlet (original version) 182 exhaust manifold and 197 fuel injectors Chris @efi mapped it...

Thankfully I had all the parts in the shed waiting, radiator think I paid 15 quid for, coolant was 15 quid and header tank was a tenner then about two hours of my time to fit it

I think I agree, the clash of OEM and motorsport for me just doesn't quite work. As mentioned though, mega effort and as ever fit and finish superb Mark

So weather just about held off enough yesterday to work on the cooling system and replace the knackered radiator. In bits Old radiator out, see the split where it's let go New radiator with fan assembly mounted and new header tank Fitted and area cleaned up a bit New type d...

Cheers chap but I'm happy enough to move with the times after a brief mourning period, lol

Welcome back

great little writeup this, and I too suffer the same sentimental feelings to my cars, perhaps keep them running longer than most sane people would

No pics but did 211k oil change on the old shed last night, first foray to the Castrol replacement. Pretty confident this is the first none elf oil the engine has seen in its life. Previous owners may be able to confirm...…. end of an era anyway. I know it doesn't actually matter but i'm a bit...

So, tried to use the car over the weekend as the weather was okay on Saturday daytime..... Pulled away from house and made it all of 20 metres before heard a huge clunk and brake pedal went nearly to the floor.. Manged to investigate this afternoon and it was.... Pad shed it's friction...

Lol, bad plan, sell quick and buy that grey gti-6 imo

Hell of a lot are yours too Leon, lol

Mines on 211k miles now, engine never been opened, used every day and occasional trackday. It's gets belts when it needs belts, filters when it needs filters, plugs when it needs..... well you get the idea. I change the oil and filter every 6k miles aswell

Maybe time to race it then.... see you at Mallory yeah?

tbh probably in her best interest.....otherwise the floor itself would be swamped in parts...lmao

of course what will actually happen is i'll keep stashing stuff, won't finish number 4 and buy a 5th 'to run about in over summer, you know not for long' and this time next year i'll re-write exactly the same post but with 'i'm only 5 cars and 4 sheds full in'

tb it can snowball easily, i'm only on 4 cars and about 3 sheds of bits but i'm really looking forward to putting the 4th car back together and then just clearing everything else out. I keep telling myself the hoarding is just to make sure I have all the bits to complete the 4 I have. so the...

daily car......go back to bolts imo ;-)

Looks the part too imo

I'm an RS2 fan, bought mine second hand. Bolts straight on, no additional mods, run stock radiator etc and original wiring, sensors and ecu. I fitted 197 cam, 8 degree inlet advance, 182 exhaust manifold and 197 injectors. Everything else stock. Made 212bhp and 160lbft but from much lower...

Simpleh loverly

lol at every single one having some form of badmanz modz on them, plenty salavgeable but my god what a pile of sheds

Dug out the history this week, reorganised and totted up the invoices, few quid over the years spent on her

and caught up here too, again patience of a saint! lol!

Awww s**t man that sucks

There's one in the classifieds on here right now, not sure if sold yet. That's where got mine too.
