Lovely looking motor, nice choice in colour too, Flint Grey really suits the Saphire Cossie [ok I too invested in a Sapphire Cossie over a year ago, my younger brother looks after it for me, standard car in Magenta/Recaro Cloth-Velour Trim.
Still a seriously quick car in standard form, but masses of potential for serious power [bow
Enjoy!!!

thanks guys..yep she is a classic and im gona try and keep her looking smooth and sedate..just need some wheels to complement her
mods are as follows
koni upgrade
greenstuff 40 grooved discs all round with fast road pads - ABS in full working order :D
Mongoose 2inch bore exhaust system with 4inch rolled out tip - this is the quieter version as there is a 3inch bore version
MSD stage 1 livemap @15psi
power is rated at 280BHP with similar torque - thats the previous owners figure, id say under it but i really do not know untill i do a rolling road test

Nice cosworth, always wanted one when I was younger and I really like the colour.
Cosworth's are so tuneable with being a turbo car.
I miss my 200sx turbo, sometimes as the thrill when the turbo kicks in especially as it was nicely tweeked :D
Cheers

Hey bro, FINALLY posted pics :D The car is an animal. Kam took me out in it, Me: "what's that noise" Kam:"that's the turbo spooling up" BAMMMMMMM threw me into the back of the seat with a big grin. Insane!!!
Wheels definitely need to go. OEM original Lattice is the way forward!

Totally agree, OEM Lattice really suit the lines of the car & will look great with the lower stance of the Koni's [ok

19-08-2005, 08:14 PM
fookin small world hey! im staying put on evotechnik as its a good club.
Spen is alright, u met up with him lately? coz he owns my e30 cab!
MSD done good with the remap i think i may have to use ahmed bayjoo or MA developments with future mappin/servicing theres good tuners down here
Why oh why did he have to buy these wheels as his winter ones :confused:
he shud have kept the originals, would have done me a favour as they dont suit my cosworth
so tell me gossip on the car hehe
Rob84
20-08-2005, 07:46 PM
Kev pointed me in the direction of this thread.
Theres been a few changes... as of tomorrow, Marc (spen) will own my 224bhp RST and i'll own his (your old) Cab :D
I've swopped it as i believe it will be easier to sell and the whole BMW scene wasn't for marc, so we've straight swopped. [cool
Took it for a little spin earlier and the exhaust sounds mint!! nice and boomy :cool:

it always happens to my cars, they get passed on like a fit bird [hmm
why did he sell the cosworth in the forst place? now he down graded to a rs turbo? :confused:
tell me all the gossip about my car..PM me if u wanna
the cosworth is going well by the way!
Rob84
20-08-2005, 07:59 PM
He sold the cossie as he simply fancied a change from the ford scene and wanted to try a bm after riding in mine :D
when you say "down grade" to a Turbo, mine (kevs old one) is FAR from a standard Turbo and i guess Marc has blue blood lol.
Well I know for a fact he NEVER took it over 5k and very rarely hit full boost, so its never been thrashed under his ownership.
The flamer kit kicks out some serious flamage too... very cool :D
kam32oi Cab
21-08-2005, 07:33 AM
i had a series 2 rs turbo ages a go too! he never gave he flamer kit with it, i got my own..
so u going to sell the e30? how much u putting it up for outa interest? that was a good practise drift car :D
