Cheers, it shouldn't be that light blue that you can't read it, if it is there's an error. I'll look into it.

Funny you tested it with a Supra, thats on my shortlist for my next car after my current Pulsar.

0-60 is out by about a second, 0-100 by about the same. Standing 1/4 should be about right though.

Damn, your cars bloody fast simon.

[nisr227]

matt, i'm curious, what car you got?

[GreenV8S]

Don't see mine doing sub 4 seconds to 60, but then the actual 60 - 100 is nearer 4 seconds than 5. Perhaps you need to factor in the torque to get some idea of the shape of the power curve for the more unusual models?

The imports are rated at 255 PS which is about 250bhp.

And they're only rated higher due to the fuel I think. Imports and UK cars are pretty much the same. They should mass the same too.

900 T16S Aero with a load of Faulks Performance goodies.

[Edited to expand on the above slightly]

1988 900 T16,

Engine Specification,
-1993CC
-B202 Block w/standard but balanced to above standard crank and rods
-Tri-Metal bottom end bearings
-B234 N/A Cyl Head, gas flowed with B212 inlet manifold, inlet and exhaust manifolds matched to head.
-B202 1991 Specification camshafts
-T3 Trim 60 Turbo with ported compressor housing and enlarged wastegate
- AB Engine valve springs
-Modified Lotus specification Behr chargecooler
-30# Injectors
-Modified clockwork ignition for more progressive and greater retard under boost.
- Bosch LH 2.2 EFI with one off software
- Silly big 3" bore exhaust from turbo to tip
- Apexi S-AFC setup for 2D RPM based map
- Ally and plastic coolant rad
- 'Always on' Air/Oil Oil cooler

[Transmission]
- 1991 Specification 5sp gearbox
- Sachs 9000 Turbo clutch
- GKN Outer CV's

[Suspension]
Avo Gas adjustable dampers
Custom specification springs
Softer Front AR Bar
Poly/Nylon Bushes

[Brakes]
Front - Brembo ally 4 Pots with DS2500 pads, 325mm ATE rotors on custon billet ally bells.
Rear - Brembo discs with standard'ish calipers with DS2500 pads

+ Lots of other stuff I've probably forgotten. In short its 17 years old, its FWD yet effectively puts the power down due to a cracking suspension and transmission setup so you'd have to be really crazy to crash it, most people don't notice it put it packs quite rediculous power and hits the 6000rpm soft cut in 5th gear @ 162mph - pretty much the ultimate Q car.

Just wait until I pull 550bhp out of the soon to be M12 and I'll see you on the strip The spec's been finalised as off today

[slinky]

If you do that, surely you're going to need some sort of launch control or something?

drop me an email chap... I need to know more!

Don't want to say too much at this point as the engine spec is obviously closely guarded but it would run Race Logic T/C with proper L/C. Have somewhere in the region of 50K mile engine rebuild intervals at which point it'd need a £2k freshen up and run a pair of 'Disco Potatoes' . Gearbox specification is in progress as the 6sp with Quaife ATB isn't happy with sustained and hard 475 ftlb+ use.

Now all I need is a mildy smashed cat D/C 2.5 for around 13K and I can get the ball rolling.

Mail on its way

[Mr E]

I'd suggest the rear tyres surviving the first run was optimistic as well.
