Hello everybody

My name is Leo and I am living in the Netherlands
A few months ago I bought a Type R version 5 in the UK.
A few weeks ago I got my plates so I can drive the car legally.
The car was stationed near London and the previous owner was a Scooby member.

A few extra's are:
18 inch P1 wheels with Yokohama Parada's
Autometer meters
knocklink
Tein lowering springs
STi 6 underlip
Ecutek

I am planning to make the car LHD so I can drive the car normally and not your English way
As far as I know there are only 3 Type R's driving in the Netherlands.

Plans to do:
turbo upgrade
2.0 semiclosed STi shortblock
LHD
FMIC with original filter

I have a question
I bought original DEFI STI gauges in HongKong for my car. However the dash pod is for an GD8. Where can I buy a GC8 dashpod for 60 mm DEFI gauges?

Here are some pics

Glad to have you boys back Cant beat the Type R

 

very true!!!! will get some pix up on the weekend once ive cleaned her..

 

heres some quick pix... dirty and dark...

all i say is the car colour is bright in the sun!!

i'm undecided whether to put the smaller spoiler (original one) back on.. i think i want to as ive gone off the ver5 spoilers... what u think?

 

Guys,

I'd like 320-330bhp from my STi 4 Type R, along with an increase in torque. What mods will I need?

Apexi PowerFC and a rolling road session to map it, but anything else? Will the standard injectors be okay? I already have a Walbro fuel pump, pipercross induction and a de-cat 2.5" exhaust.

Thankyou.

 

Im running about 325bhp and 310lbft with a re-map, Fuel pump+reg, Full H&S de-cat Sti 8 IC, Going to get the headders ported soon too running around 1.4bar

 

Ah, that's very helpful. Those are exactly the sort of figures I'm looking for. Re-map? What ECU?
Standard injectors?
Standard turbo?

I guess if you run 1.4bar boost you need a better intercooler, hence the STi 8 IC. Perhaps the other option is a bigger turbo, with the same intercooler. I already have polished, ported headers.

Smokum - speak to MONEY (Frank) about a guage pod. He might be able to sort you out.
