G60JAY 0 Posted August 21, 2003 Good thanks darren.It would be nice to know the sort of power the engine is producing, even tho there is probably quite a loss in the drive train. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rams 0 Posted August 29, 2003 bring some naked chicks and you will get a high response! What is the danger involved with having your car on the rollers? I have heard of some horror stories where the car has come off the belts and gone straight through a wall and engines being blown up? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim 1 Posted August 29, 2003 bring some naked chicks and you will get a high response! What is the danger involved with having your car on the rollers? I have heard of some horror stories where the car has come off the belts and gone straight through a wall and engines being blown up? Well basically if your engine is in good working order, its pretty unlikely that it will blow up.. hell, I ran my Corrado 16v (was worth it to find out it was running 144BHP!) and I am pretty damn paranoid. And as for jumping off the rollers and into the wall.. well, i've never seen or heard of that happening!! :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JoeNose 0 Posted August 29, 2003 I'm in too. Funky, if you're thinking October, that would suit me quite well, specially the second week. But may be able to make other dates depending on exactly what was proposed. Joe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted August 29, 2003 bring some naked chicks and you will get a high response! What is the danger involved with having your car on the rollers? I have heard of some horror stories where the car has come off the belts and gone straight through a wall and engines being blown up? That won't happen at Stealth, believe me. Two dirty great straps restrain the car to the ground and a huge fan supplies cold air to the radiator. If your car doesn't blow up pulling 6K+ on the road, there's no reason why it should let go on the rollers. The noise is VERY VERY loud and it's very unnerving to rolling road virgins. Well worth it though but be warned, Stealth's RR is VERY accurate and some of you might go home dissapointed - but with some pointers on improvement.

Jim 1 Posted August 29, 2003 Kev, But the sound of an induction kitted VR thumping away on the rolling road (with the bonnet open of course) is something you don't forget in a hurry. I love the way it vibrates through the floor and through your chest... music to your ears :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I love the way it vibrates through the floor and through your chest... music to your ears :) Nah, a better noise is a turbo'd 4 cylinder when it comes on boost and the rollers struggle to keep up with the road wheels :lol: The noise a VR6 produces is very over rated in my opinion. A BMW 6 sounds 10 times better and a Chevy big block V8 better still :D Kev Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At the moment, it's absolutely flying - just as I've ordered a bloody MAF sensor from Bosch :x The Quattro sounds gorgeous mate, can't agree with you more on that. The BMW 6, especially the M20 engine, sounds fantastic, crisp, mechanical and powerful. I didn't buy the VR for it's engine note though, I just like the performance :D Kev Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
