colin_ross Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 So how did the test drive go? Did it feel like you thought it would? Congrats btw.
G-Mac 181 Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 Thats a cracker mate, lose the mats though
sti_steve Posted February 27, 2010 Author Posted February 27, 2010 So how did the test drive go? Did it feel like you thought it would?Congrats btw. Felt better, Colin. Was running without the boost controller and then he put it on and some kick it gives and keeps going right through the rev range. Cusco coilovers were firm but felt really nice. Will post up spec tomorrow as I'm shattered today after the travelling etc. Thanks for the positive words though guys

Guest Posted February 28, 2010 Posted February 28, 2010 Looks really clean bud Best of luck with the new beast!
braveheart Posted February 28, 2010 Posted February 28, 2010 Looks nice all the best with it.. Hope to see you at Crail.. Steve
sti_steve Posted February 28, 2010 Author Posted February 28, 2010 Heres some of the spec: Short motor from WR1 Cosworth multilayer steel head gaskets VF35 Turbo FMIC stainless tubular headers full stainless exhaust with no cats warlbro 255lph fuel pump induction kit with zero sports hard pipe NGKPFR7 plugs Apexi AVCR boost controller knocklink built in dash Apexi boost gauge, oil pressure gauge and oil temp gauge Cusco blue adjustable coilovers Black Diamond grooved and spotted with EBC Red stuff pads Toyo proxes T1Rs Clifford concept G5 alarm with intellistart and anti hijack Full rust protection underneath - looks spotless. I think that's the main things. I need to get it remapped again as it's running slightly rich and need to get the AVCR set up again but it's perfectly safe just now and running sweet.
mystery machine Posted February 28, 2010 Posted February 28, 2010 Congrats, Steve. Certainly a crowd-pleaser
fai17 Posted February 28, 2010 Posted February 28, 2010 Nice car and spec... WR1 motor will take a T for sure
