Im so sad though that I have to admit that windows has just asked me if I would like to overwrite the file as Ive already got a copy of it.
Ive just been sorting some stuff out on the car though at the moment the amount of waste weight in there is impressive, you need to bow your head in shame leaving all that weight in there.
Did you see my link out cheap Williams shafts though on the forum might be worth seeing if you can buy them and take the Renault ones back.
Not sure what the bits are and not achually finished yet but there loads of wiring and plugs going nowhere eg foglight wiring which can come out. Looking at all that loose wiring round the aux belt got me all woried thinking what would have happened if it had got stuck.
Lets just hope they dont go measuring them driveshafts.
Humm more vids Id like to see them .
Seeing all these vids though Im just wondering if the car ever didnt hit 7k ever time you drove it.
What mods is it running on the vids?
2005 Impreza WRX STI
30-100 in about 12 sec! mint!
Is that a valver or willy? The willy I went in last week pulled to 150 quite a bit quicker than that so Im assuming thats standardish or a valver?
I just read the title :S woops! I assume its standard then or has huuuge wheels?
2005 Impreza WRX STI
u sure mate?
Its a Williams 2.0
It has (and I suspect it did have at the time of the mods judging my the milage) head work, cams, ITG filter, exhaust manifold changed, straight through decat, powerflow mid box and a 3 inch noisy back box. Its also heavily stripped inside. The 1/4 mile times of the car arnt that far off what some quick standard cars do.
Well was the video taken uphill then because I got taken out in BigChriss Willified valver and it pulled to 150 considerably faster than that on the video!
2005 Impreza WRX STI
2005 Impreza WRX STI
wish mine was as fast as either of them!
i remember getting 135 out of mine
Is there any reason why his should be so quick? Chriss I mean?
Could just be a good engine with good sealing pistons which hasnt been reved to death all the time. Some engines just are better ven with new 172 engines its the same Chris is a quick one faster than any other 172 I think same with Yozzas old engine it was a quick one.
A megan/ rebuilt bottom end is on the cards for the car some time, probably when the cam belt is changed (at this rate its looking next year when I get a garage) also manual rack.
Looking at the power curve for the car the cams (I take it there 270 ones) only relay push over 5k the 7.2k limiter has no effect power looks like it would just continue to rise. I might think about swopping to 260 degree cams will have to have a talk to people about it.
well only reason I think 260 cams is due to the low reving nature of the engine, besides, the cars all running the silly quick times are on 260s. not sure on the megane bottom end either, there not necessarily faster, i think it just depends if your lucky imo. northys bro Andy has one seriously fast williams by all accounts, wasnt too far of 2 lives and its std... so should easy run low to mid 14s
Yep I think Id have to test a few engines compression ratio and find a good one or buy one at random rebuilt it completly and then swop bottom ends.Quote: Originally posted by TheJesus on 10 July 2005

The car should make more power than it does even its 1/4 mile time prove that but since its got all the top end stuff it needs, seems like it just needs the bottom end fixing now.
Then again just been out to fill up with fuel hadnt driven it for a few weeks and blimy it shifts even if it is worn.
Just read this topic
I have always been told i have had a strong engine, even before it was put in. As it was Rajks old engine. When Andy @ GDI did my conversion, he also commented on it being a good engine.
Like has been said in this topic, i think the engines vary. I guess im lucky with the block i chose, and obviously the little modification has complimented it well. It does pull well...
Chris your car doesnt pull well, it pulls amazingly well! lol
Polo GTi
Andys was a quick as mine, his standard + Decat mine has cams + decat, mine was definatly running slow that day when we had a comparison, think it might be due to my car now being in the garage for a new gearbox and clutch hehe. Will be good to have a rematch when I get the box/clutch
