aircooled

[Slim Shady]

Yeah I generalise - it keeps my anger management in check  


I just like my car because it does what it says on the tin

It's not flash, it looks good, they're reliable, it has impecable driving manners (even when I'm spanking her), it's practical (did I just say that?) and it goes like stink.

all the things 'my' bug wasn't really


If I had to get a aircooled car - it would be a notchback or a porker 993.

Each to their own (unless it's not mine - then it's sh1t)

which is why i drive a valver everyday!  

out of interest what the spec on you car?

[Slim Shady]

Wow - deja vu!

Didn't I ask about yours earlier?

I'll tell you mine if you tell me yours!

G/F head, fast road cams, s/s 4 branch manifold
fitted and set up at GrantMotorSport Bristol - allegedly 165bhp at the flywheel

Koni Shocks, Eibach Springs, anti roll bar and strut brace.

Oh and most important - an aftermarket air filter - OH YES!!!!

COOL


Mnes just standard valver, with s/s system.

standard bodywork, but lowered.

yours looks heavy

Mine will look like that once I trade up my RA's fro a fine set of splitties.

You got plans for the engine?

Where you livin?

Have you met Ken or do you just chat to him on the other forum?

He's been working on that Ghia for years - but he's doing the detailing which is admirable.

Heavy? is that good?

live in leicester, not sure about the engine, runs ok, but i will no doubt end up doing something to it, did you have the engine mods done to your car?

happy with it?

[Slim Shady]

I bought the car with an overbored BRM bottom end (meant to be OK - it had reciepts dor the build totalling 3.5k! - it had done 60k on this rebuild.


It had done 170k when I bought it - so I treated it to a top end workout.

I heard of Grant in Bristol thru a friend - and the geezer knows what he's doing.

My car f-ing flew - I really was the happiest man in London when I had it.

It doesn't no more - coz I got hit up the ass on the M4 begining of last month- so top end is getting thrown in my new car as is the suspension set up and anything else I can get out.

I can recomned a new head and cams - fuel ecomomy is only slightly down on what it was.

What suspension is on yours?

Heavy is a complimentry term amigo -

Heavy (adj) - Tough

its on spax suspension.

considering how low it is it's quite a nice drive.
