fiat coupe vs starlet

My mate has a 20v coupe turbo and it sounds awesome with the 5 cyclinders r/r @ 260. Its a fu*king quick car as Dan said they are under rated. Very front heavy car though.

my mate has a fiat coupe, RR'd at 280bhp, its an animal, nice car,

and also the 220 turbos are amazing cars, i love them, my mate has a ZR with the turbo engine in it pushing 270bhp, nneeds to get it dyno'd once its ran in, the only problem is that its a bit too heavy IMO for a car designed for a 1.8K series...
 
Yeh a bet its fast am nt sayin its nt my mate ad a metro and it wasn't out spesh but went like fk but y u put a 160 engen in there unrelaiable that's y a got rid u shuda put the 2.0 t serise turbo engin in rather than a k serise

T series conversion is a total pain, have to hybrid a different head and block to get clearance, use an electric water pump and its too heavy. Thats for another thread though :)

sorry to hi-jack, but what you guys know bout the Nissan Pulsar?

an imo the starbo wud take the fiat, some crazy uno turbo's runnin round here though...

uno turbos have the same engine as the punto just has less power sure their only 115 bhp stock

pulsars are expensive all in all .fact. insurance, petrol and maintenance all cost a bomb, they are quite unreliable aswell. known for failing diffs and rotten rear arches and probably alot more. not sure on that sr20 engine but a mate of mine has just had an engine put in his. he had it for less than a day and the engine cremated itself lol

you need a wallet full of dosh if you wish to keep it

My neighbour has one, as I type this and look out the window I can see his is still up on axel stands and has been for 3 weeks, far what was meant to be a "simple" brake disk change.

His is the 20v version and reckoned it was pushing 300hp, took him for a run in my car and he was brought back to reality in terms of what 300 feels like.

its a twisted perception of 300hp though.

your car has a 320+hp, which works out at 376.5hp/ton

for the fiat to have the same(almost the same 374.05hp/ton) it would need to be running 490hp.
