Talisman TR6

Sorry but that is a bloody horrible thing to do to a 6.

Now this is tasteful

God and you called yourself a petrol head

Says the man who couldn't indentify a Mark 2 escort earlier on

Joking right?

Is being sixteen an excuse for that? Funny thing is my dads mate has a MK2..

In that case I'll let you off as I doubt you'd have seen many MK2's on the road, and the fact that one wasn't really a typical representation of one.

I never thought id see the day when a copy of max power would come in handy, funnily this is the only copy ive kept and only because of this....






It looks like quite a machine though tbf!







And

In fact i've seen tons at various classic car shows, rallys etc... Making myself look even more stupid now.

250MPH my arse. Even EVO magazine didn't crack 180 on the Autobahn a few years back IIRC.

[mat205125]

I was struggling to understand how he planned to double the power. Even if he did, he'd be nowhere near the amount of power needed for 250mph

Somebody's got a lovely little track toy Saxo, it's black and entirely free of 'chav', and I'm buggered if I can find the thread

This one ?

Thread here

That's the one

Longman F2 spec VTS engine somewhere in the region of 200bhp iirc!

I quite like mine, i think its tastefully done because i stuck to a theme.

Started off like this, bog standard, underpowered S model in need of some TLC



And through careful thought and restraint, currently looks like this.



i went with the Mugen theme and through painful patience have collected all the genuine parts required to achieve this.



Currently have the wheels sitting under my desk after having them polished



All i have left to acquire are the sideskirts and then my bodywork is done.

Engine wise and handling thats all highly modified as well, with uprated Koni suspension, bushes, exhaust, intake, etc. As well as the actual VTEC engine swap and manual transmission swap.



I also modified the interior to a genuine leather interior with genuine Mugen controls

I remember that from a Top Trumps pack about 20 years ago

I could never work out why that position in a car would in any way!

monoblock 6's the sexiest wheels in the world

Good job on sorta-Mugen Honda there.

I think I prefer the current wheels to the ones you are planning on fitting though.

Wanna try that again in English ?

If you mean what I think you do, it doesn't drive like that, that's it in maintenance position to access the mid mounted Porsche engine. Two hydraulic rams lift the rear of the car. Goodness knows what the chassis rigidity must be like

Thanks fellas, I know the rims are kinda love-em or hate-em. They fit with the theme though, and they weigh next to nothing for split rims, about 6 kg's each.

For reference what they look like on a Prelude:

I think they look ace!

Lotus Esprit with 2CV van body.

I think this is pretty decently modified TVR Chim!
