hello there! are we really the only 2 in the whole forum?!

there is a dedicated site over at msn : turbo collective

well worth a look, i'm on under the same name, but you can see the pics of my car there a lot easier than i can put them on here!

as for it's spec? since i bought her:

late model 1301cc on a G

15" team dynamic vulcan alloys with 195/45/r15 bfgoodrich tyres

system 2 uprated suspension lowered 30mm

powerflex poly bushes

3g 20 groove discs all round, ebc grrenstuff pads

goodrich braided brake hoses

powerflow exhaust

le mans twin piston dump valve and bleed valve

samco hoses

fse fuel pressure

releathered wheel

10 disc stereo, 3 amps, 2 x 10" subs, 6x9s, 4 x 4" components

thats just the sexy stuff that i wanted! as for what i had to do as well :

rebuilt front and rear suspension turrets

new wings all round

new sills

new grille

rear bumper

alternator

water pump

primary and secondary fuel filters

2 cam belts

and a bucket load more parts that i cant even remember!

wish list?

no rust!

respray

more power .....180bhp is fine for me

as you can see it's a never ending struggle! let this be a warning to all who consider the rocky path of uno turbo ownership... it's tough as hell, but when you get it right, the weather is good, and the roads calling ...i love it!!!!
