ok don't laugh

[villain24]

all you petrol heads, but i'm going off the derv, think i might swap mine for a petrol FR. I have dissed the 1.8T in the past, but had a go in my mates scooby and forgot that i was a petrol head at heart when i revved the bollox off it. You can only take the derv so far when tuning but i reckon you could make an FR go like stink. The only downside is that i'll be visiting the station a lot more.

I would imagine that the petrol equivelnat of the diesel would always be faster. Diesel look very very good on paper, and shine in certain enviroments, but most of the time if you like to drive enthusiastically, petrol is the way forward!

go 1.8t ul all smell the coffee 1 day there are no limits go as mad as your pocket will let you

 

[villain24]

Hey

Rash what will yourcar do 60 in with that IHI on it??

 

[rashcupra]

probably not much better than my 0-60 results before IHI as FWD and grip is going to be a big factor but 6 secs +/- if yourlooking to get an fr and go ihi ur talking 13-14k

 

[villain24]

thats pretty

descent! i lokking to buy an FR for about 7k. but first just a remap from CC

 

[rashcupra]

you wont be disapointed! the 1.8t is a great engine to modify! and all via the common water pump failure is a very reliable engine too

Even I have just been back from looking at a Black 05 STI , there bloody cheap as chips!

Still had a fun drive home, especially as thursday seems to be the barry boys night out in all their cars so much fun was had with the soot machine.

 

[rashcupra]

thinking of selling up then dift?

 

[DIFT]

Kinda, got alot of things to buy at the moment, with the house and a ring with a diamond , but fancy a bit of petrol fun...

~4-5k to play with ontop of px

 

[davels]

i have gone petrol again too 2k will get you this tho

 

[rashcupra]

why dont you just stick with what you got save you more money for the babys on the way

 

[DIFT]

Please dont

I aint havin kids for ages... I can only just look after myself!

Plus If I get another car, it will probably be bigger than the Ibiza, so i can fit

the car seat and buggy in

Really fancy a Subaru though ... never really liked them, but they seem to last longer between services than the Evo's which is a bonus, plus theyre cheap considering.

Would love a white Spec C

 

[rashcupra]

poor mans evo is what they are but me to have a soft spot for them they sound the balls! but dirty common!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

dont reject the beezer yet

 

[DIFT]

Ive not bought any toys for ages... and it wouldnt cost much to px in mine for a similar age and millage STI.

Who knows

 

[rashcupra]

Remember!

na fair do's mate

 

[Poverty]

Do you do alot of miles each year?

 

[DIFT]

15-16k, mostly traveling a few miles very slowly in london...

A "Gas guzzler" may spur me on to take the ride the bike in, and keep the car for weekends, and trips away.

Need to have a test drive of one 1st, to see if I even like it.

 

[rashcupra]

or keep the dirty derv

 

[DIFT]

I do love the derv... but i need somthing a bit quicker while the government allows us to have one (just).

An I want a car that sounds nuts
