    200: Corsa VXR v Clio 200

    Here's a 197 one pulled from Google, scale doesn't match the VXR one I posted above but you'll see what I mean about where the engines produce and "run out of puff" compared to each other on this, it's as close as scale as I could find. Note the torque as mentioned in my example above. At...

    200: Corsa VXR v Clio 200

    All engines run out of "puff" as the revs rise. Some will continue to produce or record "power" in BHP to the redline however the ones that do will most definitely have their torque declining by then. If you look at a 197/200, peak torque is what, 5500RPM or thereabouts? At what, 140 lbFt or...

    200: Corsa VXR v Clio 200

    Youuuu rang m'lord!?! :D Well as much as I'm in awe in of the cool story on here, there goes the neighbourhood, I'm also quite amused by it. Neither car is particularly "fast" in a straight line and having just let go of an EP3 Type-R, I'd say that standard vs standard from a standing start one...

    200: Well.. I almost died.

    Don't push it in a car you're not used to. Regardless of tyres. Or brakes or the weather. Etc.... Most high performance FWD cars will go light on the bum if you anchor up, doesn't matter what tyres you're using, some will just cope better with the loss of weight over them than others. But...

    Did the clio proud

    What an absolute bellend. I could expand on this and give you my reasons for calling you one, but it appears that you have the IQ of a house brick and that the best part of your dad's muck dribbled its way onto the mattress at the time of your conception. I genuinely hope you blow the engine or...

    2002 Subaru Impreza WRX *22.03.2014 - NOW WITH ADDED BOOOST!!!*...

    21 March 2014; I had a week on ''holdiay'' from work this week which was meant to be a detailing and general tidying up week but what actually happened was I got offered thirty hours overtime on top of my holiday pay for helping them out and covering a couple of shifts. It would've been rude...

    09 March 2014; So today we were blessed with some sunshiiine again so it was tools out time. These things are just like Lego Technics!!! :D Got a couple of things ticked off the list, namely Aux Belt and also AC removal. One took twelve mintutes, the other took an hour. 1; Loosen this...

    Oh you know it, no danger of me giving those up anytime soon!!! Dad is in the market for another one now as well hahaha!!! :D Yeah the Bugeye is an acquired taste that's for sure. Personally it's my favourite one, mainly due to how evil the WRC cars of this model looked!!! :D No real reason...

    Hahaha cheers gents!!! :thumbup: The colour is so strange. I didn't want the usual WR Blue and I did favour white (RARE) but this just looks right I think. It's almost purple in some lights. Everyone should drive one once in their life. It's ace, I feel like a little kid, big daft scoop right...

    I've been suffering for some time hahaha!!! Cheers mate, hopefully get them sorted through the ''summer'' before the sh!t weather has a chance to worsen them. You know it makes sense. I'd been looking at Evo's as well but with Dad having had a few Subaru's it's what I'm more used to and DAT...

    I'll call this tale ''An Itch That Needed Scratching''. :thumbup: So after the sale of Nicole for almost sensible reasons, it was time to unleash my inner ten year old and tick another thing off my list. Time for a cartoon car!!! 25 February 2014; It was an early start to get into...

    Nicole.R - 01.02.2014 *SOLD*...

    21 February 2014; Well that's that, she gone to a new home. I'm not really sure how I feel about it to be honest. I'd put her up just out of interest really to see if/what interest there would be after a couple of Meg'd cars had sold recently. It'd been nearly three weeks without hearing a...
