Zedrush Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 Hmm would be good for more info here cos my brother has called him as he might be purchasing it this Saturday. Unless anyone in the know lives close by to this guy and can go with my brother to check it out, as my brother is just sorting out the bankers draft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless anyone in the know lives close by to this guy and can go with my brother to check it out, as my brother is just sorting out the bankers draft with 460bhp on standard internals mate, i would not touch it, far too much stress on the engine in standard form that i would feel comfortable with.

Gus Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 That's Steve-B's ( or Steve_B, or something ) car from the original site - he installed the s/c himself and painted and installed the bodywork himself. He also did some work on Val's car. I'm sure Val will know if any of the spec has changed since Steve had it. Car has changed hands at least a couple of times since Steve had it.

The old fart is the man to talk FI to £25k for a 53 plate He is getting that figure from all the mods that he has spent it Presciences was very similar in spec (minus the body kit) and he sold it for a little over £20k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Removed Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 yeah it's Steve's old car. Can't believe he's let his private plate go with it too? this stuff has been added after Steve sold it: Vortech Undersized Pullies – Stealth Systems Custom "one off" Exhaust System – Stealth Systems Racing High Flow cats – Exedy Hyper Single Clutch Front Cusco Strut brace front:Brembo 6pot GT Callipers with 355" discs , Brembo Pads Defi Boost and fuel pressure gauges Defi Control Unit 2 Alpine 7.5 touch screen monitor Alpine Navigation and those LEDs. PS the guy doesn't even know his own car.... the rear is Speed-racing btw AND he's got fluffy dice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PS the guy doesn't even know his own car.... the rear is Speed-racing btw AND he's got fluffy dice so is the BHP bs? In terms of pulleys, if he's running a 2.87", the numbers are quite believable (3.33" stock and 3.12" normally the smallest you'd run non-built). There are at least 50 questions to ask about this though (if it were me) and I have to apologise that I cannot list them even on PM since I have some other pressing matters. Treat with caution and for one bit of advice ask about the fuel system end-to-end Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
