Its a Ford Fiesta,full evo drivetrain full built Buschur Racing stroker engine with a GT35R over 600bhp,does knockhill in 54 seconds.

Bit nippy.

Please sir, can I have some more? Pictures of the Fiesta I mean.

And now what have you posted, is that a Focus? Lights look like Focus. And engine-wise, that looks like a YB Cosworth motor to me but I'm no expert on them. Again, more info + pics please :)

I love the Bob Sharpe Datsun 610s.

And a tasty ITR. I actually like the Mugen wing on this, to me they tend to come off as a similar style to big carbon GT wings and they look out of place on a street car/hard parker but knowing that this car is built solely for track work makes it a little more palatable for me. But each to their own.

Not much to tell,the fiesta has almost the same wheel base as an evo only 15mm difference so almost a straight swap wieghs around 1100kg though.

Focus is carbon fibre bodied with a space frame chassis used to be around 680bhp with the older engine and just under 1100kg but with that engine its 800bhp and was only run first time at the weekend, 9.5 @ 137mph out of the box.

The Integra further up and the Corolla above are fantastic.

The Corolla reminded me to post some pics I took at a rally right at the start of this year. Unfortunately I'd forgotten to bring my proper camera so they've all been taken on my phone, but they look okay I reckon!

Finally, a 240Z. I quite like how this pic came out.

I'm really liking the green KE 'Rolla that casey_2005 put up. 👍 That's not the most powerful car (it would have a fair bit of power though from that nice sized turbo!!) but it's a well done conversion and would be pretty much the most fun to thrash around day-to-day. :cool:
 
More Mantas it is, then..

This one is local tuning legend.. 3l 24V engine from Omega etc etc..made back in the 90's and it's one of the first cars here to sport underbody neons.

agreed. it's been build in style that suits the era. It seems to have same flares as that rally car in the first pic, in other words, a bodykit from Irmscher.. irmscher also offers 2.8l and 3.6l stroker kits for manta..
 
That'd be a lot of fun methinks. Irmscher really seem to know their stuff. I seem to recall seeing old Vauxhall Novas with their bits on, and they even do fairly nice stuff for the modern Vauxhalls/Opels. It's just a pity they're attached to Vauxhalls/Opels.
 
I think it adds the perfect amount of aggression. The early Manta is a very pretty car but a little agression is always welcome. Hopefully backed up by a little tuning too.
 

Unfortunatly, that car was broken into a couple hours after that picture was taken. Someone stole the satnav ipod, iphone and a laptop (i think) out of there.
