Default My RB5

This is to test interest otherwise I'll put the car back to standard before selling. So comments please...

MY99 RB5- guess the build number

Private RB5 plate ** RBS
No external changes, looks as it did out of the factory.
I don't know the exact power but I'd guarentee 350bhp probably more like 380 though.

GEMS Ecu with anti-lag and switchable maps one optimax the other 95ron
1.3 bar boost
Grouppe S headers - the first ones (wrapped)
TD05/06 20g turbo
550cc injectors
upgraded fuel pump and regulator
APS top mount intercooler + silicone hoses
HKS Induction kit
full de-cat, with resonated center section and rolled in 3.5" tail pipe all magnex.
ERL water injection
Knocklink, lambdalink + boost gauge

50K miles, most mods were put on at just after 40k

I think that's it... I'll add more if I remember anything.

It will be fully serviced before I sell it, Brake pads and disks will be brand new as will the clutch - most probably an ap organic clutch.

Suspension and brakes are entirely standard, they were next on the list but I think I'll get a tvr instead

Standard RB5's seem to be offered at around 10k, I can sell the parts of this for a bit over 2K, so any interest?

I can say that even with the shorter gearing an STI IV typeR felt gutless in comparison.



same but bigger

another one

Here's an old one... changes are:

The SSQV is gone - and good thing too (chavtastic, don't know what I was thinking!)

The I/C inlet hose is now red silicone

and the water injection inlet has a copper shroud

Or that tvr money could just go into a 2.5l shortblock.....



It's going to be a shame to see it go after 3 1/2 years!

The car is on the register, but the specs are wrong. I don't know how to change it.

I've not used the RB5 forum for a long time, just don't get much time for the internet these days.
