Is it an Ev...................................

.................

............................. oops, sorry, fell to sleep.

Evo?

Nah you could probably buy 4 or 5 Evo's for the price of this one

Paul Summers old thing?

Nah, just a CS (not that there is a huge difference as the CS has an RS box and clutch)... never seen the track or anything just some old timer in Brisbane that never let it even see 8,000rpm!

So, here's our 999 jigger! lol

Triumph TR8.... Eddy has driven it, reckons is goes good and turn 'em in 3rd and 4th! lol, I'll believe that when I see it :)

But, 400 odd horse, under a ton, and revs over 8k. So I reckon it's a bit of alright, especially with a TT fuel card :D

Should be a bit of fun at spectator points and town stages I hope!

Look at bringing one in from england as a race and rally car.

They are cheap as chups over there I believe !

That they are, and some nice examples on pistonheads too. But I wanted one that was regg'd :cheers:

Nice on Timmy.

JA sent me some footage during the week of his last TT with Greg in his Dak Dak and the most noticable thing from the footage is just how awesomely usable those cars are for this stuff. It has to be a good thing. I'm still suprised no-one has gone back and tried one of the new updated TT's as I still reckon they'd be a winner in the right hands. (Because surely by now someone has figured out the electronics!)

Well Gav bought the new car (shock horror)... SO exciting times, but not till after Targa.

I heard today that this one is moving garages after Targa, maybe just a coincidence?

EDIT: should have read further, obviously not this car

I am getting old...

I reckon you'd be doing REALLY well to get the "Showroom" Golf R anywhere near the Sshowroom" Evos that are pumping out in the vicinity of 240AWKW!

really? even in production cars the emo X are quicker in a straight line than the 290RWKW v8s....

    • Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?  
    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
