That's Keith's new car I believe, although I haven't seen it yet. We're coming down from Aberdeen. I think I may be feeling a bit underpowered though!

JVSImpreza 09 May 2003 04:22 PM

Thats the one...

Kosy 09 May 2003 04:50 PM

:eek: Some spec list, must have had over 50k chucked at it!

Any estimates on its bhp?

moses 09 May 2003 04:56 PM

JVSImpreza 09 May 2003 04:58 PM

700 BHP easy. Real BHP. Not "guess a bullsh1t number" BHP! Very fast "road car".

moses 09 May 2003 05:04 PM

jvs ive seen it for real and experienced it and taped it :D its mental

Hamish69 09 May 2003 05:09 PM

Hey Moses! Where have you seen Keith's car in action? I only live 5 miles from him and I haven't seen it yet! I heard he had Rod Bell give it a blast who gave it the thumbs up, so it must be good!

I wondered how long it would take for the cat to get out of the bag.
the car is not registered yet so it will have to go to Crail on a trailer,
I have only driven the car about 5 miles so far and that was not in anger.
Rod Bell my tuner was the first to drive the car flat out at 1.3 bar boost on optimax,all I am going to say is it felt awesome from the passenger seat going up through the 6 speed dogbox without using the clutch.
this is what I will run the car at for a start on Sunday, I may turn the boost up a bit after I have done a some runs.
once I see the best way to get it off the line,plus I will have to get up to this dogbox

the car is built to run at 2 bar boost at 9500 revs on race fuel
cant wait to find out what that feels like.

I bet u wont stop laughing when u do that :D

JVSImpreza 05 September 2003 03:51 PM

I am told that this beast is going to Crail on Sunday (See link below). I imagine it will be the fastest motor there by a long way. Fingers crossed that its dry so we see it in action. (Hes trying to put in a qualifying time for "10 of the best"). Seeing this in action will amke it worth paying the over priced gateway admission alone ;)

Real power. Good luck Guys.

we will have to see how it goes.
I have a 25L drum of race fuel that cost me £90
for a start the car will run optimax at about 1.3 bar boost
