I have more than likely forgot some bits. The engine was brandnew from America i have only covered 1300miles so just run in really, currently running a vf22 turbo running 280bp, 350nm torque at just 6psi i have been told to run the car for afew more miles then i can put my AF td05 20g turbo and 740 injectors and it will see 400bhp the engine is built for 500+bhp as i wanted a reliable track car with 400bhp.

Just out of interest what do you lot think its worth? as i will be selling it due to never useing it and business expanding

Looks stunning mate from what I can see (pics still tiny even when I click on them)

Not sure of value but would be right up my street if I decide to sell my newage. Keep me posted.

Finalzero, i registerd ages ago but never got an email so i cud activate my account,

RLE; if you wanted you could come over for alook anytime if your interested, im not in a rush to sell but if someone comes with the money i will let it go

finalzero 13 April 2008 01:50 AM

Looking good, one thing I will say, the earlier RA's look better with the midlevel spoiler imo and yours seems to resemble the earlier models but that spec is mental :D

M444GY 13 April 2008 06:09 PM

lovely looking car mate :thumb:

White ST 13 April 2008 07:01 PM

i have the mid level spoiler for it, iv also got some black mud flaps to go on it but notsure about puttin them on

Schumacher 13 April 2008 07:06 PM

Looks very nice.

How did you get 365mm discs behinds 17s, though? :Suspiciou Didn't think it was possible?

White ST 13 April 2008 09:16 PM

they are the hi spec caliper so they will fit under 17's thats why i had them as i dint want to got for 18's as i know afew ppl say it changes the feel of the ride for the worst

there u go fella

pnbond007 15 April 2008 09:47 AM

That's a nice looking Ra you have there I really like the Black scoop,

I may introduce that mod on my RA as I think it will complement the contrast of colours, White,Black & Red

Nice one & BIG thumb to you

Ian Payne 15 April 2008 12:03 PM

I never usually comment in here but that is a very nice looking classic, seems a shame to have to sell after all the work you've had done!

Cheers

Ian

White ST 15 April 2008 12:20 PM

cheers for that i was thinking of putting some red n black stickers on mine but cant quiet bring myself to take the step yet

Be carefull you already have a great looking colour scheme the only Red additions to my Scoob is the Flaps, front AP calipers & soon rear Ap's.

When I start to mod the underside that's when things may change, though I'm hoping I can go with White ARB's..I guess the drop links will be a different colour but that's cool.

When I have my double garage that's when I will start the proper underside changes....but that's a away off yet.

White ST 15 April 2008 01:20 PM

i have underseald mine have all silver arb's and bit and bobs i was goin to get the rear diff powder coated red and the subframes black, i still mite yet as im on no massive rush to sell it

pnbond007 15 April 2008 02:22 PM

well that sounds great, I'm going to sort out my diff case too, though it will probably be anodised Blue and have a decent guard fitted.

To be honest the underside of mine is very clean indeed & the subframes & links etc are all still in original condition & only a little polish would bring a nice shine to them.

White ST 17 April 2008 06:02 PM

whats the cost to anodise the rear diff then?

pnbond007 18 April 2008 10:09 AM

To be honest i'm really not sure, though if not viable I may look at having the casing polished...but I do want to try and avoid a bling moment

White ST 19 April 2008 02:16 PM

i have been underneath mine this mornin takin bits off to be cleand and then painted or powder coated

pnbond007 19 April 2008 02:52 PM

sounds good....
I'm going to try and change most of the nuts, bolts & studs for lightweight or stainless on my underside or where ever I can on the car....though I don't want it turning into a custom car...just want it clean & presentable

adam knight 19 April 2008 03:43 PM

beautiful motor mate looks sweet :thumb:

White ST 20 April 2008 01:58 PM

cheers fella

Carl Davey 20 April 2008 11:34 PM

That looks very nice indeed. I'd lose the spats off the rear bumper however.

White ST 21 April 2008 10:44 AM

it looks to bare without the spats, plus im thinking of putting the low levell spoiler back on it with a rear window spoiler

Carl Davey 21 April 2008 03:43 PM

Fair play, i just think that the spats look lost without the skirts... which themselves have no place on an RA IMO.

Once again, nice car and great spec. :)
