ps the s2000 with a super charger will be 320 rather than 420bmp? Aimy-On the dyno it got a reading of 420hp it's stage 1 supercharged Even over 100 you think it should be on par?

Lol i was just wanting to no if it sounded about right for a stage 4 Vx guess I should start my own thread

[thor12]

my old vx220

[turboluca]

Yes aimy sounds right, Id love to go out in your brothers s2k wiv 420bhp. I miss my s2000 for easier to live with, but then I'd miss my vx for the shear excitement .

not sure about over 100 but even a super charged s2000 lacks grunt over 100.

if it really is a 400 plus s2000 I think it's the euro record. It must be insane.

Yup. Good luck with the sale Thor.

[thor12]

cheers. I'm not putting it up for sale though. if I cant get a swap I'm happy to keep it. I'm just trying my luck in case some of you lot may want to swap.

Suspect you will have more options of selling seperate and buying a vxt cash tbh

I do get tempted in the future to have a R35 as a daily only issue currently is the £3 in the saving account lol

A good friend Giles aka G Man owns this skyline http://www.speedhunt...r33_top_secret/

Only really good for air field days at anything near full power and although has ran / built many silly cars over the year this even scares him and last time I spoke had still not engaged the level 3 map for the full beans!

[thor12]

as you can see, the paint work is really in great condition and the oil is as it should be.



here's a cat chilling out

[thor12]

don't be put off if you car s cheaper. I really really want a vxturbo!!

[fezzasus]

the owner of my old vx220 may still be on here. It would be good to see how the car is now. I still have a pic of it in my photobucket account. I swapped it for his scoobie.

did it have black wheels and no V?

[thor12]

black wheels but not sure what no v means

[rob999]

The Vauxhall 'V' at the front of the car...without it, it looks a bit like a big ol mouth.

[thor12]

ah ok I thought he meant the Subaru. ok then no the vx had silver wheels. it's the pic of the car above. That was my red vx220.

[thor12]

I have a very rare limited edition kakimoto exhaust. Straight through, cat less. Very expensive and only a handful of cars got these fitted.

[Claws]

That's a beast of a Skyline! Looks in excellent condition too! Did Cliffie not swap his Impreza for Rag? If so, I think Thor would approve of Mike's subtle modifications! Did the blue VX in Glasgow have grey stripes?

[thor12]

the name cliff rings a bell. it was a blue Scooby. no the blue vx was just blue. I see it a lot actually. we used to flash each other when I had my own vx220.

I remember when I my VX was stage 4 and a Skyline came bombing past me at insane speed. It was wet and greasy and I tried to keep up but the back end twitched too much for me to try. I think he was a lot faster than me (in a straight line), though I have no idea what power he was running.
