Hello,
would like to buy a bugeye or blobeye with at least 400-450bhp. Live in germany and would then come over and pick it up myself.

Money wise I know it will cost;-)

regards
michael

 

Hi Mike. Welcome to Snet and good luck with your search.

 

Have you tried eBay? Loads of 400 plus cars on there cough cough choke! Welcome and good luck with the search!

 

depends if he wants ebay 400 or real 400 as the latter are far harder to come by

 

wahts your budget

 

Man there's loads on egay you can spot the fast ones they got stickers innit man!

 

Have you ever owned/driven a 400bhp impreza ??
Why 400bhp ?

There's a story,
Man goes to tuner and tells him he wants 450bhp. Tuner says jump in this and I'll take you for a spin so you can feel the power.
They go for a drive and customer says that's exactly what he wants.
Tuner then tells him it's 330bhp.

 

Hi Mike
Got a specD Hawkeye (2.5) running 442hp. Fully forged (built by Neil@Slowboyracing), mapped by Duncan@Racedynamix, running an SC46 billet turbo, RCM headers, Exeddy twin plate clutch etc etc.
Let me know if of any interest, can let you know the full spec.

 

I think my mate is selling his Prodrive Bug(or its being broken)...Forged 2.5, rotated MD555, Porsche stoppers and a host of mods.. 480bhp/500ftlb

 

Thats my car but im just not sure if i can part with it or not at the moment,im completely undecided! lol but i can let u know the full spec if i decide to let her go!

 

Cheers mates,

my wrecked classic had a proved 363bhp and I´ve already looked at 3 bugeyes which according to the sellers should have had around about 350bhp, but I was disappointed because it was not like my old classic.

Of course it will cost me, which on the other side does not mean that I can pay to much. 15-16 grand is enough though.

I think I´ve found the proper powerfull scooby. Looking at it on tuesday

Thanks for the pm´s and other messages, I will give a report to the site and hopefully photos if it is the proper one

 

Hi, the thing about a newage is it's a much stiffer and more refined car than a classic, and no matter how much power you put through one it's never going to feel like a classic because they are a totally different car that happen to have the same engine and name.

I have an STI type r and a Blob WRX wagon with PPP.

The Type r is 200kg lighter and has 50bhp more but in the real world on bumpy roads with damp patches the Blob is quicker in many situations when you check the speeds involved, the type r feels faster because it's more of a hand full.

On the track the the type r will wipe the floor with the blob.

 

This is the mintest blob eye you will ever find and is up for £14,500 firm.

33,000 miles, one owner from new, never seen rain. 470bhp / 460ftlbs

Brief spec:

Forged 2.35 built at zen performance with head work, cams and all supporting mods etc.
MD321T turbocharger
Autronic ECU mapped by Paul Blamire
ExeTC suspension
Whiteline suspension upgrades throughout
AP Racing 356mm 6 pot brakes
Quiet track friendly exhaust by Simpson Race Exhausts
Speedline Turinis wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport Cup tyres
Harness bar, sparco harnesses
Genuine WRC bonnet vent and modified rear wing by SGM Racepaint

Way too much to list, and NO EXPENSE SPARED ANYWHERE!

PM "MADDOG" for details

 

Seen it in the flesh a lovely car and well modded to boot.

 

blimey some brilliant scoobys around. Did not expect so much response. It`s getting harder to decide
