mdubgti Posted September 30, 2004 Report Share Posted September 30, 2004 heh stage 3 is 1.8t style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":P" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" />i think 180bhp would be fine. you could beat a s3 with that.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopy Posted September 30, 2004 Report Share Posted September 30, 2004 I'm aiming for beating an RS4. style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />Seriously though, for 6,500 euros, I'd really like to be looking at a BHP figure starting with '2'.

tdwindustries Posted September 30, 2004 Report Share Posted September 30, 2004 new audi a8 6.0 anyone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DubDub Posted September 30, 2004 Report Share Posted September 30, 2004 QUOTE(tdwindustries)new audi a8 6.0 anyone?Maybe if you moved the front seats to where the back ones are now and moved all the steering column and controls back a bit too, that might just give you enough room to drop the 6.0 in.With a few mods of course.... im not saying it would be as easy as this... style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":P" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Lup Gti Posted December 20, 2004 Report Share Posted December 20, 2004 just one question!! I bet the bloke with the focus was gutted when he stacked it??? lolLooking good there mate, what engine management you running on that thing?? u got uprated gearbox out of the rs also?? One more thing lol, thought the Rs was fly by wire throttle?? you running diffrent throttle body?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simhopper Posted December 20, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2004 the fiesta was fly by wire the rs uses a throttle cable it all runs on standard foci rs mangaement and the mtx75 box with slip diffsoon to break the 300bhp barrier if it mangages it will go to about 350bhphandles well but i still miss the `go-kart` handling of the luppy gti i swear one day ill get another lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zippy Posted December 21, 2004 Report Share Posted December 21, 2004 Simhopper, that is absolutely brilliant!I like the latest Fiesty a lot, and its good to see someone do a proper job on one.The ST has had good `write-ups` recently (comprehensively & repeatedly beat the new Cooper S round a track in one mag), and I cant wait to see what the RS Fiesty turns out like!Good stuff man!

simhopper Posted December 22, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2004 the st is being released end of this month but as for the rs its all speculation some insiders say its been shelved due to cost as the rs focus lost them 4k per car after there sold themshame really as it wa sa stunning car bodywork mine is based on the jwrc wide and low Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
