Do you still have the fabled "rev counter must be wired up to the speedo" video?

Thanks for the kind words guys. Its only a small collection of some of the shed ive had in my tender years pmsl

Nice Evo! But then I am a bit biased...

You actually running two bar of boost in it then? Forged internals?

Yeah buddy its running the new HKS 7460r turbo and quite a big spec. Its a genuine 500hp car so tbh along with that turbo (which i think is the best 500hp turbo on the market) makes it a rather brutal road car

Nice. Still running the standard two litres? Or you had it stroked?

[2BarBoost]

Well its not a standard block but yeah its still a 2ltr. Im not a fan of the stroker kits if im honest unless you want big big power as its hard to hold the power up the revs on the smaller turbo up to gt30's

TBH i think 2ltr long rod is the way forward. You could have a long rod rev'ing to 9k on a forced performance black making 600hp+ on a reasonable budget

Revving to 9k eh? Sounds interesting. Well if you ever feel the need to move on and sell the engine...

[2BarBoost]

Will do buddy. I can point you in the direction of some great people ive come across that offer a fantastic service for evo owners.

where in the uk you based?

Nice collection,ive owned a very similar collection of cars myself,listed on my profile.Its a shame i havn't pics to post as most of them were in the days before digital cameras were commonplace.

I'm Kent/London borders. TBH, I know places to take it to get good work done but due to work issues (paycut/potential redundancies), money's much tighter than normal and that rules me out of having any engine work done. And I've just paid for a closed trackday at the 'Ring too (being nice and sensible with the cash I do have )!

10 of us 'local lads' are off to Le Mans in a few weeks too- looking forward to it (depending on what mood the TVR is in)

Sorry, but that bit amused me as a guy in our office has a TVR and switches between a) proclaiming it's true britishness and how reliable it is, and b) whinging like mad about how unreliable it is.

[gareth.e]

I can't believe you split the 405!!?!? Why on earth did you do that? Was it completely nackered?

I think i recognise that Miami Blue T16. EDIT - profile says yes. Hello Jamie from a fellow 205GTiDrivers member

Nice collection you've built up now.

Tonks T16? Remember it aswell from old PGAC/drivers.

[mgmrw2003]

is it wrong that out of all of them cars, the metro is the one I'd want to try most? just for a giggle

[JimVVC]

What a fantastic selection of cars, I've seen your white Evo around a few times, I have a Silver Evo 6.

Was your metro a J reg ending in DWP? If so I owned that a while back and still have the old plates in my garage
