*real Cars*

Hey people what's up? My first post in the NFS section; I'm usually over in the *****yness that is FIFA!

Just wondered as we're all into cars what cars people really drive? I'll start off.
As a daily driver I own a Ford Focus Zetec 5 Door (company car)
My weekend and play toy is being worked on at the mo...
A Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution 8 MR FQ-320. Mods are as follows:
Carbon Fibre Bonnet
Carbon Fibre Front Fenders
Carbon Fibre Front Doors
Carbon Fibre Rear Doors
Carbon Fibre Boot
Carbon Fibre Spoiler
Extreme Dimensions Walker Body Kit
UltraliteGT-II Gold with Toyo Proxes
AP Racing Bakes w/Ferodo pads
Exe-tc suspension
HKS Exhaust
Uprated & Re-mapped ECU

Got a few other bits but hopefully she's going to be ready for next years show season as I'm doing some more engine work. Will post some pics of the photoshop in a bit.

So, what do you drive?

shanegrv1 · 08-03-2008, 08:45 PM

theres a thread for this in the main nfs forum, any ways you got any picks?

I drive a Vauxhall Zafira with just over 200bhp. It surprises a lot of young lads in saxo's etc.

Full stereo install with tv screens, dvd, sat nav and twin subs.

2 litre turbo, 0-60 in about 7.6 seconds with a top speed of about 140mph

Remember, all this in a car designed to carry 7 people!

Scarffo · 12-03-2008, 08:38 AM

Nice Zafira.

But what annoys me is when you see people in a Zafira with gigantic body kits that were made to fit tuners. It looks so daft.

Your isn't over the top, and it's still very fast.

alxndr88 · 12-03-2008, 03:36 PM

i own a 1.2 fiat 500... its getting delivered next week. atm i just have an old 1.2 clio...lol

Thanks. Aftermarket bodykits dont and never will suit a Zafira as it hasn't got the right body shape.

My car is a GSi which is a dealer standard car. Its based on the floor plan of the old Asta GSi and runs the same 2 litre turbo engine, hence the 200bhp

Basically apart from a few engine dress parts, the car is standard.

The addition of a straight through exhaust and a panel filter tips the power just over the 200bhp mark

Scarffo · 15-03-2008, 09:56 AM

Great! I'd love to see that driving around town. Someone 'round here has a Zafira like yours, but they've basically just put a dinner plate exhaust on it...
