Cheers for the nice comments guys, the better the weather is getting the more I am able to play around and wow wow wow bloody awsome, top work bob and thanks for letting me take it off your hands

awsome car fella i could only dream of mine having a spec like that! bet the hole in your pocket got a lot bigger when the running cost of a 485bhp monster hit it didnt it!

BIG FUD

Proper power still smoke it in ya t25 though no lag = good bye.. lol well done ste ...

stevie1982

iTrader: (16)

Cheers zippy, mate I have always dreamed to build it myself but the money it costs always put me off and ended up settling around the 350bhp mark but having the chance to buy such a well sorted car from such a well respected guy I could not say no. In all fairness I have not really noticed too much difference on fuel (as yet) although a big part of that was due to the ice and snow stopping anything other than a little side ways fun!!!

Ha cheers big fud but I will flick a switch to 1.9bar, prime the aquamist, pop on the in gear antilag and I think there might be another outcome squire lol.

Don't get me wrong I loved the t25 bloody fantastic car and as you say soo responsive, iain and the team really produced a top car but I know which one I personaly can't wait to get back into

So you finaly got a t25 then, you got any pics ?

BIG FUD

Ill get some up mate i bet that classic is rapid my type r is 400 -360 and thats mentall and on the 20g no lag with e85 fuel. I know its fast as ive had a couple and been in a few 450+ clasics crazy boost when it kicks in my mate bill got 470+in his wagon and me other mate morbs got 570 in his wagon.

I brought the type 25 cause i love the low down trq it makes, 3600 revs 360ft trq check all the graphs on here not many cars make it that quick good to have the both cars for a little while.Be goos to see you at scoobysprint in 2010 ste ill be there again putting type r through its paces,Enjoy your'e new beast it looks a cracker well done and good luck in 2010..

stevie1982

iTrader: (16)

yeah they are very good and i agree the low down power is mightly good.

still playing with it at the minute and yet to relly get on it as it is soo different to the last lot i have had and with this sort of power i am taking it nice and gentle.#

dont think i am ready for scoobysprint just yet mate i would love to but i recon i need to get as many track days in in 2010 to set me up for the following year but i will try and get down to some in the year to see what its all about.

james just so you know its a v5 plate reads GC8F so no idea why it came out of the factory with the v6 exterior and interior but i am not complaining

My Licho Spec C makes 400ft/lb by 3400 revs

stevie1982

iTrader: (16)

rickya, blackwagon cheers guys but i think it will be here to stay for a while i hope to have it into API in the new year for new disks and pads, oil cooler, cambelt and a oil change also a possible baffled sump depending on funds as i am hoping to do as many track days as i can possibly fit in i am aiming for one a month so i hope to see some of you all and start putting some faces to the names on here. also missed some bits off the list such as a 22b quick rack and a few others but the majority is there.

and rikya that is very impressive and to you too big fud, i do agree the responsiveness of the twin scroll is something quite different but i hope to think once going with my anti lag switched on as its set for the gear change as bob as you know used to quater mile it i should not notice much difference on the track

malcs scooby

what has bob got now,is it a newage blue sti?

stevie1982

iTrader: (16)

he was going to be getting a 06/07 hawkeye mate as he wants to do loads of r&d on it due to the new softare comming out for the drive by wire cars hence the reason to sell the v5 afet 9 years of owning, modding, r&d and drag work so as you can imagine it is well sorted

malcs scooby

iTrader: (5)

ah rite cool yea i no the car pretty well as i used to see it every day are you going to use this as a everyday car

stevie1982

iTrader: (16)

yes mate for now untill the early part of the year and then i will get a estate car as it will make my life easier with my german shepard and other bits. awsome car though still getting used to it at the minute lol not what i am used to

stevie1982

iTrader: (16)

we will have to hook up mate i am only about an hour away. you should try and get to some meets this year or track days, i know there is one going on at brandshatch on the 22nd of feb which i am hoping to go to

Nothing can replace the t25,Get back in one ste...

Bttt for a proper classic...

stevie1982

iTrader: (16)

ha david i know, i am stupid and will probably regret selling it as i have done with the p1 and in some ways the t25 but needs must and i have to take a back seat from ownership for a while. i will be back to pester you one day (as soon as i can) and will have to as i will have to come up for one of those bacon rolls lol

t25 was good mate, a little to refined for me if i am honest lacked the rawness but they are set-up very well but not sure it had a patch on the one i have at the minute, the thing is bloody awesome. if it dont sell i will be all over the trip to the ring in august fud so please keep me in mind

cheers
