    2xxxx GBP It's a Eurospec, megarolled rear fenders (about 25mm more space per side now) Greddy 3-row, 3" exhaust made really really seriously, RPS stage III clutch, all the lids and pipes under the hood are home made by a seriously crafty dude (last owner, he owned a big mechanical shop with CNC operators etc!) (IC piping is greddy though) and a megaloud bov that I'm planning on replacing with a more discrete one. The hood scoop is also raised 10mm , I will fix that later on with a stock one, looks more discrete as I don't want to attract too much attention . This is a well taken care of car and not molested, really tight and completely dry underneath. Very happy with it! Last owner owned it for 9 years, only drove it 1800km in that time so I have some TLC to do, dry connetors and so on but mechanically the car is spot on! Custom paint (VW paint with gold / blue metallic flakes, looks really cool in the sun) 4 owners since new (one owner only had it for 2 months in the summer of 2003), 125000km on the ODO when I bought it. Mustang Dyno'ed to 325 RWHP with a meeeega clogged K&N filter, now I have a Blitz filter instead. Not sure on boost yet as it has no boost gauge

    Sold this car. But now I've bought a new one, FINALLY Some pics At the sellers house First MOT in 7 years, went pretty good , only good for two weeks and now I have to do it again, failed the emissions test so I had to buy a new OEM DP At home, 1200km drive to get home hehe It's a 94 Eurospec , LHD 6-speed
  6. With both cats wanted! Must be able to ship them to me here, I live in Sweden :-) J-spec is not the same, it does not fit regards Markus
  7. Isn't the stock gasket just a press on gasket? Not a flange type? On USDM / Euro Turbos with decats, I'm not sure those works
  8. 4-row intercooler , WB02 , EGT with good values , noticed increased trap speeds above 18 psi up to 22 psi so they did deliver more power even though ppl sais they don't..
  9. Yeah but 20-22 PSI will make them suffer a bit
  10. Yeah I've e-mailed the two biggest builders, they are _costly_ to say the least. If I look in the US the prices are about a third of what I have to pay here at home. We're small countries in Scandinavia so less sources here.
  11. Thanks! Dropped a mail to those too
  12. Dropped an e-mail to CR Turbos, thanks for the tip! Any more suggestions ?
  13. No I want them stock. New seals and bearings and an overhaul ofc. But the turbos are in fine working order, just a bit of shaft play but no smoke. Same issue when buying second hand as the ones that I already have.. I'm pushing my twins hard so I need them to be fresh.
  14. Hi! Who in the UK or maybe someone here on the forums can rebuild my USDM (same as Euro / UK spec) Stock Twin Turbos? Can someone give me an estimate or a point of contact so I can check for myself? Tried a search but it's hard to sort out the results. I live in Sweden so I have to send my turbos to you and then the turbos back to me ofc regards Markus
  15. I'll buy the veilside off you if you're willing to part with it, just get another exhaust and have a few hundred £ left
  16. Interested in the exhaust if you want to sell it seperately! Let me know!
  17. Is this still available? And will you ship to Sweden? What is included? Flywheel? Or just the pressure plate and 6-puck sinter?
  18. +1 vote for the 452's, great grip and they are almost half of the price per tyre as the michelin or toyos are here in Sweden.. I have 275/35/19 in the rear.
  19. Sure about him beeing the fastest BPU spec car. But it could be
  20. I'm not sure about that , but it's wicked fast, but next year I'm gonna be faster hehe.
  21. hehe the yanks just have better tracks / preparation / trackbite, the tracks have to be level to be NHRA approved you know , they also have like a 10 month season so now wonder they're faster than we are.. I took my car to the strip twice this summer, about 7 runs total.. So.. pretty happy with that. and tDR, the ET Streets that I have are called "grooved" slicks and they are legal here in .se, but maybe not in the UK. And the DR are not good for the manual tranny. You need the flex in the tyres since the manual launch is much harder than a hi stall converter launch, seeing that the driveline is much more tightened before launching and the drive is engaged, when popping the clutch at around 7000 rpm things have to be working good if you don't wont things to break, when the tyre flex the ds / drive axels are spared and they hold up much longer. And with your uprated TC I don't see why it's necessary for you to run a LC too. especially when you're not in TTC like I am.. I'm really impressed with your times though, must be the fastest J-spec car with stockish twins in the world maybe, even though they are hybrids. If I can have the economy to keep my car until next year, I'm looking for 11.2-11.3, seeing that I was fat as hell this year and I had a big stereo (playing while driving too hehe) Jamie: Thanks for the input. I like my inside cam vid , it was really cool (me like myself hehe)
  22. Okay but you have hybrids and a tuned ECU, but still a timeslip is a timeslip so I'll give you that. Mine is stock however ECU wise . The tyres that I use are DOT approved and street legal here in Sweden (and in the US), I wouldn't however use them on a daily basis, complaining about someones tyres is like complaining about someone beeing faster than me with a single turbo, it is what it is, run what you brung . 1.7 60 foot time is still done without a launch controller. and I would easily pull that of with my other DR's that I have, I just lent them to my friend that very same race. Just that the DR's and the manual tranny doesn't always see eye to eye and the DS might break, I use the DR's on the street seeing that they are radials and work great for street use. I didn't know that the times were for UK only. Sorry about that, however: Sponsor me and I'll come to santa pod and we'll have a match race then heheh.
  23. PM's threadstarter about my stock twin times. The #1 spot is miiine
