- 660cc engine
- 650 kg
- 74 bhp
- Turbocharged
- Intercooler
- LSD
- Four wheel drive
- Redlines at 8,500 rpm

tbh thats quite a good spec, i bet if you could get that to 120/130 bhp its would be a right giggle!

its a "kei car" or class k, basically a small city car, cos japwhan is full of small people so they have small cars. lol T88, and a huge fmic and eleventy-million injectors and you'll kill skylines. for all of 12 seconds till it implodes...

that good or expensive?

Sloth
07-09-10, 11:10 AM
thats expensive, also remember that its an import so most insurers get edgy....

It's been declared as a import on the quote I did Rob. ;)

mad things these. hockley build these as rally cars and they had around 130bhp.

Sloth
07-09-10, 11:28 AM
ahh okies, it seems to depend on the car tbh, tanias celica is an imp, ye is cheaper than a uk gt to insure. i think its when import and turbo are mentioned..... i.e scoobs and gt4's. o.p what about an early uk spec celica gt4? cheap fun and fast.

He means they're a ballache to fit and there's loads of bodged ones out there.

As for the small J cars, as Rob says. the place is full of them as space is at a premium. They just don't stack up over here though.

My mate used to have a Charade GTTI (1.0 12v 3 pot) and as Craig says, they're awesome. Try and find one that hasn't fell to bits lol. Wind the boost up and pwn many things! Especially as they're getting thin on the ground most people don't know what they are. You can even get a cabby. just don't wrap it like he did. Lost a leg when he got a lap dance from the engine!

Failing that, get a Copen. lol

Sloth
07-09-10, 12:01 PM
or a suzuki swift gti and fit bodies and cams... 9k rev limit and the noise.....

07-09-10, 12:05 PM
i just dont know what to get ideally i want a nova c20let but my budget isnt that big :( and i couldnt justifie(sp?) spending 4k on a nova :(

07-09-10, 12:09 PM
what is your budget?

If you want revvy reliability and out of the box win, go JDM.

(My guess came true, in about '06 I knew it those three letters would become the new buzz word lol) I hate even sayng it now! I know it doesn't mean everything by a Jap manufacturer btw. lol

I remember when I used to sell stuff on the bay and would put that in the title and be asked if it meant GTi etc. Another good one, my mate once asked me if an EK9 he was after was JDM or UKJDM LOL. Double laughs really, as all EK9's are JDM.

Yup, the GTi-6. Bung it back on the Cyclones FTW. I bet you will struggle to find a cleaner/better kept example.

If he's after a Zimma, Baxters E36 is for sale too, 328 iirc.
