ooooh like the pug106gti, girly obviously, but looks sweet !

Anyone got the type of fool round their way that takes a nice car like say a 106 Gti for example, and then decides to put 6 x 4" exhausts on the back of it?

NERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRF !

why.. . . .ummm why ?.. . . .for what? . . .umm . . . .why?

hahahaha

it beggers belief !!!! does the guy really think that 6 Exhausts are going to improve engine Flow? and there all 4" !!!!!

Ive not managed to verbally tell him what i think of him yet, because he is always going the other way, but i must admit to perfoming a few hand signals at him as i go past, from the highway code of course :twisted:

Its people like THIS that give modders a bad name.. . nearly as bad in my book are the people that put every sticker known to man on their car, call me old fashioned but i just dont think u should have ANY stickers on your car . . .maybe a little UK-Polos.net is ok :D but thats it !!

Fairly large amount of cars round my way.

Between me and my mates we had some seriously fast machinery at one point. Only just sold my Nova's to pay for the Dub. To name a few.....

360bhp 2.0 16v Turbo Nova (Steve's)
160bhp 2.0 16v Nova (Mine)
125bhp 1.6 16v Trackday Nova (Mine)
Various 106 GTi's
Cossies, Scoobies, Evo's you name it.

Unfortunatly, there are tons of kitted up pieces of s**t with neons and w**k shopping lists with dodgy stuff on them........ Like a fiesta with Nismo. A Honda with a mini cooper badge, and worst of all, a Honda with TRD (toyota Racing Developments).

My 2.0 16v

My 1.6 16v

Proper modified cars. Huge brakes, stripped out, seriously sorted suspension, awesome engine transplants, and set up properly. None of this stick on crap.

Green one would do 0-100mph in roughly 14 secs depending on the launch, as you can imagine, its hard to pull away without wheelspin in such a light car with that much power. Once rollign could pull 70-115 (3rd gear) in 7 seconds which is what I loved the most. Had the F16W gearbox on it from a Cavalier Diesel, so would do 70mph in 2nd, 115 in 3rd and 145 in 4th. I didnt have my GPS at the time to test 5th gear :lol:

It was the handling I loved most though 8)
