What Car Do You Drive ?

[JTM]

Pics of your GTI please and the engine

[phil white]

im not chatting shit, i dont chat shit. and dont accuse me of chatting shit. i get very offended by it.

And as for loosing power through transmisson,  yes you do, but how much exactly depends on the car, quality of parts and wear. and being as it has new of Everyting transmission wise, and the flywheel has been balanced, there is minimal power loss.

I have dyno papers to prove the hp, they were done november last year.. ill dig them out and scan them in next time im at my mates house as i dont own a scanner.

the 0-62 was done with a stop watch, yes i no, its not anywhere near the most accurate way of doing it, but my speedo is very much in sync and unless your a retard and hesitate or have a nervous twitch prior to slicking 'Stop' it must be accurate + - 1 second. and top speed times wer done by raggin it next to me mates MR2 Turbo down the medway drag. (M20)

I am geting rid of this car to purchase a imported Mr2 Turbo Rev3 soon, its been madley upgraded to run 350 BHP, full veilside kit, 60 in under 5 seconds 175mph +(PROVEN), my insurance is £800 full comp for this to which is amazing.

actually you can work out an approximate bhp at the wheels by deducting 10% plus 10bhp from the fly bhp. which always works out 1-2 bhp within an actual reading, this is a proven method and doesn't differ with cars. btw how much torque did you reach in the dyno?

[RyanRs]

0-60 time is defo bollocks

Since Ive had a Escort for 4 months Ive been part of a escort forum and have gotta to know quite alot. While your Bhp figure at the flywheel sounds correct, as mentioned ^^^ it wouldnt give 150bhp at wheels. And that 0-60 is defo bull. Your talking 8.5 seconds AT BEST

Standard....

Escort GTi (Mk7 115ps)... 8.8 sec

Rs2000 (Mk7 FWD)...8.3 sec

XR3i (Mk7 same engine as GTi but 130Ps) .. 8.2 sec

Rs-Turbo series 2 ... 7.9 sec

So, my car std is 8.8 sec, so just by putting in the 130 ps cams knocked off .6 of a sec to bring it to standard xr3i spec.

i am allowing my stopwatch 'Timing' To be out slightly so, it read 6.8, i allow for .2 sec (7 sec)

if you think about it, its std with 130 cams @ 8.2... and the D-Cat combined made a hell of a difference to the 'Pull' of the car. so combined with the rest of the stuf, 1.2 seconds faster than standard sounds about right.

BTW, i did forget to mention its interoir is stripped from the front seats back, and the heavy std seats have been replaced with lighter Cobra daytona buckets

Thankyou.

you can't give a reading with a speedo thats out like every other speedo in the world and an itchy stopwatch finger as proof....lol

i have a gps system in my type r which gives me exact readings of speed and my speedo is out so i can guarantee your gti will be out.

sorry mate, i don't wanna seem like i'm picking on you but i just take offence to people who chat to make themselves look good!

ah you resort to childish behaviour as you have been owned for talking pap!

and which integra are you talking about as the dc2(old shape) is slower than the civic and the new shape dc5 is only available on import and fractionally faster as it is jdm spec which would be 220bhp the same as the jdm civic!

anything else you'd like to ask?

btw whats a looser is that like a loser???

are you pete wright in disguise?

and yes by all means come and race me in the mr2 as i'll be safe in the knowledge that i could sell the civic and buy three rev3's and have change left over!

Nothing childish there, u lost and trying to intimidate me, trying to make me look silly. i dont no much bout Type-R's , personally i am not a great fan of them. altho i no the integra's are faster as my next door neighbour owns integra -t-r and his mate has a civic -t-r. they told me they had a race and the integra pissed all over the civic, but the bloke with the civic has had a supercharger conversion fitted now and it beats the integra.

Also, surely loosing to the mr2 then admitting that it cost a THIRD of your car, surey thats a bad thing isnt it? if i had a £15 - 20,000 car and got beat by a £8,000 car, dont think i would like to admit it.

Also i think, this MR2 at £8k looks far better than a Civic Type-R at THREE times more.

(Y)

End it here ok. i dont want a demestic over this.

hahahahaha what a chav chariot, i'm glad its got 350bhp as it wont be there long enough for me to look at it!

stop press some one call honda and tell them they got there performance figures wrong because ryan rs's next door neighbour says so, lmao

you came into the thread stating you owned a blah blah gti with blah blah bhp and i merely stated you were talking shit which you agreed to as you started changing your mind on the performance figures, so how have i lost and how am i intimidating you!

and like i said if i want to i can sell my car and buy the rev3 so stating that your better than me for a having a car which you don't even have makes no sense, i wouldn't care if someone beat me in a mr2 as i'm not bothered.

end it here.ok

[the666ers]

How do you afford all this on your car when you can't even spell???

I really do doubt your times as well, sorry but I just don't think your car could be that quick with all the fibreglass crap attatched to it.

I guarantee any well tuned mkII 8v gti Golf could piss on that with half the money spent on it compared to yours. Also, if it's yours can we have a picture of it with trials-forum on a bit of paper on the dash or something.

You started this arguement. and i dont speak shit. whoppy doo dar, your rich.. stop bragging! we dont want to no.. and if you really think i am better than you for haveing a car, so be it. cars mean barley anything to me, so much so that it hasnt been driven in over a month now, as i would rather be riding my bike. its cheaper and better for your personal fitness.

Bit of advice, with all your cash that you own,, Go buy a life you looser.

oh, and your type -r wouldnt out run a STANDARD Mr2 turbo rev 3 either.

The car in the pic is an MR2 not a Ford escort. the car in the picture is the one i am setting about purchasing at the moment. The car in the picture has a 3sgte Toyota Celica GT4 2.0 Turbo engine in it. with a standard output power of 245 bhp. the bodykit is NOT FIBREGLASS. goto the veilside website and look if you dont belive me.

Edit - Phil white, TAKES TWO TO ARGUE. you posted the 1st comment agienst my post.

Eh I never said it was a ford (Y) What is it made of if it's not fibreglass? And how do you afford all your cars? Just interested as I'd love to be able to own such outrageous cars when I'm your age.

If youre a coach driver how are you affording these 'good' cars?

Also, how does you owning a GPS in your coach, and your dad owning a GPS in his lorry, add up to 3?

What is your problem. was you picked on at school or something. i told you I DON'T LIE and you greatly offend me by saying so.. i just looked at your profile and ain't you a little bit old now to be arguing..? i am only replying to stand my ground and stick up for what i no is true.

You do not no me, you have not seen my car and you do not no what it can do. i don't ever post things to cause arguments, and if i realized it would cause this much hassle, i wouldn't have posted that 1st post.

don't go on about telling me that i am trying to impress people. as i have had a lot of personal achievements and done things that i can probally guarantee you haven't. but i don't say anything as i don't like to boast.

My car is my car, No not as good as yours but i am proud of my car and what i said it does, it DOES.

I apologize to everyone for replying to this persons insults, but its in my nature EXPECIALLY when someone calls me a liar.

Easy way to shut them up ryan is to take a picture of your car with a bit of paper with trials forum written on it, won't hear much from them then. Simple (Y)

You clearly are a proud person so it shouldn't be too much effort to sort a picture out to shut up the doubters?

My dad brought a second incase one went wrong, as he has had trouble with his before. Coach driving does actually pay well if you get with the right company. between £350 -£475 a week take home, depends on how many hours you work. it pays better than working as a bus driver for arriva (done that too).

But i wouldnt recomend the job, if you have money to do a PCV licence, dont do it, do a Class 2 Lorry licence instead, theres many more jobs avaliable and the pay / hours are better.

[rocktrials]

not having a go, just commenting on that mr2, it looks a bit crap, too barry like, whip the bodykit off, and them awful wheels, and probly massive exhaust and spoiler and it would be alright. just get a mini for the fun, even if you have owned one.

[Prawny Baby]

personally....

just personally....

if i had 8k to spend on a car.... id get a Z-cars mini with a 1299cc hyabussa motor in the back driving the rear wheels....

170bhp straight out of the box, and less than 1/2 the weight of the civic....

it would quite literally piss all over a type r and an mr2 turbo, 350bhp or not....

not saying 'im going to beat u all' because i blatently dont own a bike engined mini....

but cummon people, you could be more original!!!

the civic type r is gorgeous, but NOT massively interesting IMO, but its a seriously well engineered car thats seriously quick.

that MR2 is quite simply plain offensive!

why stick all that SHITE onto it???

the bog standard mr2 body is AWESOME, instead of ur big gay crap just stick some deep dish 17's on there and be done with it.... itll look FAR better in the end.

that just looks ugly and disgraceful!

at the end of the day....

if you have all this money to spent ona plastic mr2, why not getting something really special?something custom and unique, not a nice jap car covered in tacky plastic!

[phil white]

there seems to be some misunderstanding, i never set out to compare my type r with his car and i have not gone on about how good a type r is blah blah, i don't come on here bragging about my car like some persons on here, not mentioning names..

i simply pointed out the bhp figures and 0-60 top speed figures were wildly over estimated in his first post, and i asked him to explain, he changed his explanation several times in an attempt to save face but has proven himself to be a pete wright aka "truth bender"!

i don't care for a photo of an escort, i've proven my point that he bent the truth(don't want to say lied incase he starts crying again) about his figures but then he started bigging up an mr2 that he doesn't even own..and then started the spam..
