Huktonfonics Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 46 minutes ago, eatthis said: 11k rpm!!!! i took a different approach to making my old car quick, take a 3.2l vr6 engine add low comp pistons add a supercharger with 1 bar of boost done lol made 475 hp and 395 lb ft with 4wd which was pretty nippy even in a 1500 kg car and the noise was also biblical (as were the flames on occasion) Mate thats a CHOMPA !

K Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 It'll goto 12.5k rev limit is lowered to save it, got about 18k miles on that engine so it's going well. 4-6mpg on track 12-14mpg on a cruise... Vr6 lump loves a bit of forced induction. I just love the noise of naturally aspirated. Although is costly to get most of em... Built them when I Single and young and, now have a family and responsibilities haha... Does sound good that Vr6 mate. 4wd is bit boring compared to rwd with a LSD though haha. Escort is just as quick, I don't like advertising just how fast as I race for money regularly at various cruises etc. Beat a Ferrari 612, bloke was nearly in tears haha but coughed up 500 we raced for!

eatthis Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 i had no idea you make a screamer from a yb engine 4wd is kinda sorta boring but my god it spits you out of corners at warp factor 9 lol i also had a mk3 vr6 that a strapped a charger to it when it hit 100k miles without doing anything at all to the engine, didnt even have an intercooler lol they really are bombproof motors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nic01 Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 My 19 year old Mazda 323f blew up the other week, so I took the opportunity to buy one of my favourite cars. Nothing special to other people, but I've always loved the MK 4 VW Boras. So I found this one. VW Bora S 1.6 16v 2002, 103k on clock with full service history and recent cambelt and water pump done. Was already a few little mods done to it when I bought it. Looks good and runs perfectly, i couldn't find a fault with it so i had my local garage look over it and they said it was fine...

rushboy2004 Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 Well I am a Ford man had 2 Focus before. So I just traded in my faith friend of 6 years my Mondeo Zetec S TDCI - This was only purchased as a short term car when my Focus DMF failed and got a trade in price I could not refuse. But it was so nice I ended up keeping it. My recent purchase a Mondeo Titanium X Sport 2.2 TDCi Taken 6 months to find and had to drive 250 miles to collect, but worth it.
