Gsi Nova

[Iain-astra]

I got a Gsi nova there on sat . It has adjustable suspension , pulleys , cams , bmw valves , lightened flywheel , ported and polied , balance bottom end ( if that makes sense ) , Full exhaust system , Single wiper , fully seam welded , full respray , imprezza discs and gsi cavalir calipers . Print out of 125 kw whics is about 167.6 bhp . I have also got webbers for it but i'll have to get them fitted . I'll put pics up later

[novamadman]

sounds nice

where did you get it

did it sting you much

is it a rally car

shane

[Lee H]

167 bhp lol :roll:

[Stuart]

for 167 bhp id hope its got aftermarket ECU, NO afm, and a rude solid profile cam..... otherwise its a complete farce on a std ecu and afm.

[Lee H]

Cams and pulleys, surely they should be singular :confused:

[Stuart]

^^ now your just being piccy lmao
(and technically it is cams as there are 8/9 cam lobes, thus the plural being cams.. lol)

Smart ****, suppose he meant pulleys as well because there is a cam pulley and a bottom pulley :D lol

i like the "bmw valves" and the "impreza discs"

[Ash]

or maybe its an XE? and impreza discs would be 5 stud.

[Steve Barker]

bmw valve caps maybe ?

[jamie gsi16v]

i can smell something in this thread bull****!

[Iain-astra]

well i have the printout for the car and i have all the receipts . The discs were off a demo car . I raced mivecs and sirs beats them no problem . It has an ecotec head on it

[jamie gsi16v]

ecotec head? is it 16v or summet? post the printout and pic of the engine, ecotecs are restrictive rnt they?

[Iain-astra]

haven't a clue mate a fella i know built the whole engine up

[jamie gsi16v]

u dont no if its 8v or 16? what size engine is it? take some pics

[Stuart]

pics of the bay would be handy.
but again if its on the std inlet manifold then there is no hope of that power

[Mike.]

bmw valves my **** lol

afew of the techies at work will love this lol.

[Iain-astra]

bmw valves my **** lol

afew of the techies at work will love this lol.

em why not mike

[Stanley]

some of the smaller non-turbo impreza's are 4 stud are they not?

just a guess

i hope hes truthfull cause this will be worth seeing

my guess is its a valver like

[Iain-astra]

i have pics on my camara but can't find the lead so i'll get them up asap and my mates is gonna scan up the dyno sheet 125kw

[Stanley]

what size engine is it?

8 or 16v?

[Iain-astra]

I think its an 8 valve

[Stuart]

the dyno can massively overread by the way..... and is he sure tis not 123Bhp... lol

if your not even sure what the engine is then id kinda wait till you knew all the details then posted ;) but as said. if its a 16V on a std intake manifold then your not going to hit that power. if tis an 8v on the std ecu and afm then again your not going to see that power. Simple physics and knowing whats worked in the past there ;)


the imprezza discs... meh who cares they are only brake discs lol. Some people fit Fiat coupe turbo discs because they are pretty much the right size and much cheaper than V6 ones... similar probalby goes for the imprezza discs.. EG you fit whats cheapest and "best" value for money ;)

[Iain-astra]

have to find someone to put in the webbers

[jamie gsi16v]

gsi engine on standard air flow, theres no way that bhp you quoted is correct sorry! car looks ok tho?

[Stuart]

how random... there is a 1.2 dizzy running the ign... freaky

[Iain-astra]

lads yous know best i'm only a newcomer

[Adam]

The car looks nice and tidy, needs a black stripe on the bumpers :thumb:

[srs1]

agree the car looks good.

think people on here need to chill out a little.
you were given the figures and the spec by someone else.
i would say go and get the car on the rollers yourself if you are not sure on the power rating. that way you will be sure yourself.

Stu, my Gsi is running the Same Dizzy as that! it aint that Freaky! Might explain why i managed to break the rotor arm recently thou! lol

[Stuart]

i assume you purchsed it like that... it jsut seems odd for the gsi that is ecu controlled to have a 1.2/1.3 dizzy that is deisgned to run on its own there... meh

In those bay pics, it has a gsi dizzy.

I assumed the pics of the 1.2/1.3 dizzy are for his T40 setup :thumb:

[Iain-astra]
