(G) Wow who owns this?

This thing looks like a beast, was checking out piston heads when I stumbled across this!

Some guy called Michael from Huddersfield! Bet if you tried hurling that down the Snake Pass you'd end up in sa wall or a reservoir!

i want it.
how much you think it will go 4?

Wardy25 owned it before the guy from hudds.

nearly 20k spent on it but doesnt handle very well

I bet it wouldn't cost much to build the handling up, nice set of adjustables on it.

Luke.

its not that simple mate

it will still be very top heavy and will go through springs, shocks etc in no time

Sorry, I guess I'm slightly ever so eager. If he's spent eighteen thousand on it already, would it not be too difficult to build a much more compatible handling set up.

Luke.

i think when you spend 18k on something finances may possibly run out

with any conversion like that though, you should expect to have minor handling issues

or he might be extremely rich

no he wasnt

You should get a lighter, equal or greater powered, better handling car if you just do a 1.2/1.4 16V superfire conversion

Never driven the UT/PGT engine cars, so can't comment on handling really, but from what people say its not great.

Put 140/150 bhp through any of these cars though, and if yo don't treat it right, there will be difficulties

I can expect so, I guess I've always looked for a sei like this, got one, and see the big problems. I'd love to do a low boost conv to mine and use it as a second car. But it's so much work, and I'm not totally mechanically minded.

Luke.

wardy himself said it was pisspoor in the corners

i could never compramise handling over power, between a well sorted 1242 turbo cinq that handles like a gokart and one with 140bhp that doesnt i no which one id go for ha
a good handling car can keep you intouch with the more powerul car infront right
