looking at a around 1 ton in weight for the mk1 with 200bhp against a mini at approx 750kg and approx 130bhp.

i say the mini gets spanked. it'll run out of steam  :evil:

What if you tune it 177HP? Then you are looking at surely a pretty equal if not a mini sided race. Quick off the line...

I say golf.....  If the mini had a proper motor in it then maybe it would do better but then I would wonder how well it could put the power down, especially if it has tiny wheels and tyres fitted.

if its a 1.5 its not even a proper vtec is it? thought they were 8 valve?? (lad had work had a "vtec" civic, kept telling my how rapid it was blah blah bla, opened the bonnet and it was a 8 valve. i nearly cried laughing.

i used to have a mini with 1.6 8 valve astra engine and nitrous, it was 125 bhp off the bottle (ported, bored, cam, head, exhaust etc.) and ran 75bhp jets so 200bhp on it. That was quicker than a mk1 golf with 200bhp but was HORRIBLE to drive  :sick:




im hoping my mk1 20vt should be a bit nicer day to day, yet still have enough with 250bhp to make plenty look daft
