Leonard replied to Leonard's topic in General Car Chat
What colour is it Andi :grin: What new car you getting, have I missed something exciting??? -
What are your next plans then mate? Coming on amazingly well! Saw you looking at some Recaros the other day, did you get them :norty:

Yeah or i will look like a twat :lol: Either way Im sure i would be happy driving it. My mate used to have one and it was suprisingly fast yet comfortable. Plus it has a massive boot so I can get a couple of bikes in the bike :grin: -

Oh yes! And I will be wearing my aviators :grin: -
Does the VSR change the sound at all? Ive heard it does... makes it sound more like a regular 6pot ive read... Not that i noticed. Maybe a tad more burbly below 4k Not 100% if I like the power delivery, miss the linearity of the std engine throughout the rev range. But to to be honest the car is lot better to drive everyday now. Torque below 4400rpm makes driving really relaxing. But if you are on a mission you can keep the revs high and have some fun. Feels like a VTEC kick now when the flap opens on the VSR at 4400rpm and the cams kick in. Its literally Jeckle and Hyde. One minute you can be wafting along on a load of torque. Next minute you are howling along with some serious bhp :grin:

1991_black_spg.jpg[/attachment:tilhp2a5] Anybody know of a nice one for sale or an MX5! Let me know :grin: Many Thanks Mat

Honda NSX-R anyone! :notworthy: Want one, need one 8) And there is no point getting into a 12V/24V which sounds better argument. Basically cos the 12V is one of the best sounding engines ever end of. Pretty much the only reason I still have the Corrado. And same reason the guy I was speaking to the other day still has his Mk3 VR6. Despite being minted now and owning a Porsche 996 GT3 RS and a myriad of other exciting 'weaponry' :grin: Was also the reason I spent £2k on cams, VSR and a remap rather than on an engine conversion. Why would you want to get rid of the 12V, dont get it :shrug: (no offence anyone) Matt
-
I used to. Just cant get passed the chavvy image now tho, same with the sierra cossies and any focus RS come to think of it lol :(
-
My car with VSR and 263 cams feels very similar to the 24 valves I have driven. Although my top end feels a lot more aggressive (cam profile?). In fact looking at Coullstars graph my figures and curves are pretty much spot on with his as well Matt
-
Go on then mate send pics of the bad boy over :grin: matt.w.j.clarke AT hotmail.co.uk Cheers! Matt

Nice wasnt it !BnE,Pug!mk~$(KGrHqYH-E!EtsPoFF-iBLiBV,jG8w~~_12.jpg[/attachment:3mxpdx5g] Oh well better to have loved and lost and all that :lol:
-
And now I find out that the car that has been maintained 'regardless of cost' has no tax and no service history whatsoever. Bugger, oh well hunt continues...
-
REALLY like them mate, good call. Cant help thinking it must be 4wd when I look at the pics! Even tho I know its not LOL
-
Oh well obviously too much time on my hands, just bought one off ebay. Pick up next Saturday :grin: and Countryfile says it is going to be sunny :clap:
-
Bet you could have some cheapo winter tyres funded by the government though. Must cost a fair old wedge to keep the gritting going for 4 months of the year!
-
I did she said you were lying and could possibly do with buying a Dodge Viper :grin:
-
Ha ha ha bit of a u-turn from a 4.0L V8 admittedly, but then again I don't have to compensate for anything :grin:
-
No more than 2.5k but hopefully nearer 2k :grin: What you got?????
-
Defo a Mk1. But as you say not many decent Eunos knocking about. Was thinking of getting a 97 UK car and maybe adding a dif at a later date. Not bothered about air con as roof will be down! And roads around me are pot holed to buggery so dont think i will mind std suspension either. Cheers for heads up on rotting areas.....
-
Defo be nice to get back into rwd again! And figure at around £2.5k I can have a lot of fun and not worry too much about binning it :grin:
-
Am I alright? :nuts: Figured it would be a fun way to do the 10 mile twisty road commute to work this spring/summer. With the added bonus of saving a bit of petrol. Bit worried about the image though :camp: , despite being 100% real man :grin: . Good idea :shrug: or :epicfail:
-
Shame we are tho on this occasion! :grin:
-
I imagine that is supply and fit into another R32 Golf and not a Corrado with hours and hours of loom work and fabrication.
-
Spot on love it 8)

Looking real good mate, nice and purposeful, love em. Dont envy you having to clean the buggers though :lol:
