think about it though daz, a cheeky 2k would sort it out no problem and you'd get some of that back through the sale of the k03s etc!

lets just do it and see if we can get a discount buying the turbos together?

 

[Daz_gibbo]

See what deals you can get us. If I could limit the costs of injectors and MAF I might be interested. Would fit the whole kit with a mate this time too

 

[rogers]

dave if u fancy a group buy matey count me in, looks a awesome piece of kit!!

Ploughing another 2k into a car that handles like a barge eh lads, must be approaching evo money!

 

[Daz_gibbo]

Speaking of which. Theres an Evo VIII MR 320 on the lancerregiser for £15900!
Thats an absolute steal!

 

[Martyn]

I'd much rather a 6/6.5 for 12k though

 

[Forbez]

Thats about 14k out of my price range!

 

[Daz_gibbo]

Used to love the 6 and only the 6. But the 8 with the carbon goodies in Red is just

The 6 is much harder to tune. 380bhp from a VIII with ease.

there was a evo very simular to that in bridgend couple of month back! was stunning, theres alot to spend other than jst the turbo updrade, brakes are the most expensive part, looking 750+ so that makes it nearly 3k,

 

[Daz_gibbo]

Thats what's always held me back. The price these cars are going for these days your not going to get anywhere near your money back.

 

[rogers]

i aint to bothered about that, sounds stupid but u can never expect to with anything, i jst wouldnt get a loan to spend the money on my car, id jst save, once u have saved u dont owe the money so if its what u want to do with your money then u only live once, (its wot i tell my mum) no morgage etc that wot i always say

 

[Daz_gibbo]

Thats what ive always done = no debts. Limited with FWD though. Unless it's a VR6 Turbo Golf . lol what happened to that idea Dave? Now thats going to sound better than any 1.8T

 

[davidol]

its still floating round in my head daz, only problem is finding a cheap enough 3 door later spec OBD2 engine'd black one which is all i'd want really...A tidy one sold on autotrader the other day for £2500 but the next mint one is £5400, might as well stick with the cupra as the whole point was cheapness so i'd have plenty of money to spend on it!

 

[Daz_gibbo]

Theres a green VR for sale on here. think he wants 3.5k looks a decent example. Woudnt look right in green with orange interior though
Any luck with the vids Dave? My mate with the Vectra Gsi doesnt believe it ran a 16.2 vauxhalls

 

[davidol]

send it to u now on msn, crap gsi!

see what i mean though, have a search of autotrader and you'll see what i mean!

 

[acidstrato]

changed plugs earlier today, car felt mint tonight on way home from work, no missing but it could still come up tomo.

 

[Daz_gibbo]

Clunking is started to become more apparent Phil.
Also very shakey - Steering wheel and whole car it seems at speeds 60+. Been like it for a while but getting worse. A combination of uneven tyre wear and a bearing on the rear is too.

 

[Jonzy]

I ****ing hate my h&rs, thinking of going back to standard.

 

[acidstrato]

lol only been a couple days, whats wrong with em?

 

[Jonzy]

The ride is shocking, ive had shitty gmax in the past that has been better!
