500bhp yea ? Is it ever anywhere to prove this, such as Crail, Knockhill, Star performance etc or is it just another unsubstantiated claim ? :rolleyes:

Just wondering, as I'd be keen to run alongside it to find out how much I'm lacking ;):D

Andy

moses 15 March 2003 10:54 AM

yeah andy 500 bhp is hard to believe :D but kev sharpes car will pi55 on it anyway :D

teknopete 15 March 2003 01:13 PM

LOL 500bhp :D :D :D

That`s really cheered me up for the weekend.
Like Andy sez, talk is cheap ;) Lets eat that pudding eh
And see em back that claim up ?? I`m sure there`s more than
enough chances. Crail next weekend ? Rolling road day next month any 1 ? Knockhill May ?
BTW did i mention my wifes 400 bhp fiesta ? (NOT) :p :D :D

Robin, whats the secret to getting service or even some1 to talk 2 u from Caulders ? As I`m sure there`s a lot of peebs would like to know ;) Not me though coz I won`t be back there, 1 snub was enough for me when i had £10k in my pocket 2 blow on a scoob.

Good 2 hear u r back on the road bud.

cosmic 15 March 2003 09:14 PM

just remembered before i bought my current impreza was looking at theres approx 2 years ago guy asked if id ever been in 1 said no he said ill take you for a spin took me my wife my son out guy drove like an arsehole doing 100mph at times he decides to go back to there yard he takes a sharp right corner to fast front end stepps out hits a kirb bursts a tyre destroys a rim dont know what other damage he done had to limp back so needless to say i didnt buy 1 of them if thats how the do all there test drives then no wonder there cars sit there for months

teknopete 16 March 2003 08:31 AM


the 500bhp car will be out soon i am told, its still in bits
So it`ll b a : starts at 285bhp + 10 bhp for filter, + 30 bhp for exhaust, + manifold flow & polish + 20 bhp, etc etc kinda 500 bhp :D :D ??? Did they even have a dyno print for the engine ?

Got 2 agree though I have no probs with George (ex-Falkland)
workin on the mota although he hasn`t recently cos no one knew where he`d gone. He did a lot of the work on "big red" in the early days (1st 2 years).

Moses, I`ll pass on the yota m8 2 much yeeha 4 me fella :)

Hey Andy, u r keepin a low profile m8, wot up ?? Mail me bud ;)

robinH20MRV 16 March 2003 10:03 AM

hi pete,

the spec is as far as i know is........ 2.2 stroker kit, BIG hks turbo, hks tubular manifolds, gas flowed heads, fueling map/injection system i cant remeber the name of, but the car is being shipped to englandshire to get done, ap paddle clutch, and of course nos !!! the engine is sitting at crd, (the new side NOT car sales side) i am sure george would be happy to show you it :)

this should produce a "wee bit " power :):):) lets just hope dee does not destroy it in the first week!!!

and once again thanks to george at crd for doing my cam belt at very short notice :) the car (with its ra mota) is going real nice, just going to run it in for a week, then change the oil!
then the fun begins!!!!!!!

cheers robinh20.
