I'm tempted to rock up in the golf for one of these jap only cruises, watch them have a whinge lol

give it a miss pat for the 11bty time! haha

yeah, Billy's car pulled it off. You need lots more low and much better sizes offset if you go that path

Kind of sad that the Fabia RS (1.4L twincharged) is faster than the 86, despite less power and roughly the same weight :/

It's 3-4k cheaper too...shame it looks like a smashed crab.

have a lot more torque though and that's what will win it

Bout 50nm more, still, for the size of the engine and the fuel economy it gives, it's got more impressive performance. I think that might be faster than the Polo GTI?

Why couldn't the friggen 86 at least be moderately quick, even a 7 second 0-100 would have me buy one :(

Hold out for that TRD version...or join Alex with the 300C...

Yeah probably is, I've heard of a guy that has a Skoda Octavia (wagon) TSI and that has beat a few Golf GTI's which run the same engine, well the whole running gear actually; just the body is different

The 1.4 twin charged engine isn't in the polo's though, they run a 1.8T, only the Golf GT's came with 1.4TC and they are pretty fast

So for it to be faster than a Polo to is pretty good

2011 and newer polo GTI have the 1.4TC and 7spd DSG.

basiclly deciding between the 86 and the gti atm.

correction - a front wheel drive smashed crab

Wheels mag tested it at 6.8

This is interesting...I wonder how repeatable it is, because this time would match the on paper stats. Yet Toyotas official figures say mid to high 7s and low 8's for the respective gearboxes and I can't see why they'd stay conservative about the test figures...that's something high performance cars usually do :/

manifold and rear housing have 'broken in' car no longer sounds like a tractor...

lol crap, SR20 = forever tractor.

It really doesn't. Sounds like those hyundais or lancer mirage things you see going around with random cannon tips

Good thing varex is there. Driving around with the f**ker off lol

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
