So basically cardcrash suggested I post a little bit about my car which is due to be finished any day now. It was a mint UrQ 20v that I bought back in Feb 2014. I had sold my much loved MRC tuned V10 RS6. Fancied a change to something old skool, raw and more engaging. The UrQ had been one of my favourite cars of all time so thought I might as well take the plunge. The UrQ I bought had an RS2 engine, ECU and 6 speed gearbox. It had Koni springs and the optional factory BBS-RS. On a Euro trip to the Ring last year with my mates who all had R8 V10's it would level peg on a roll on upto 145mph. It was really quick. On the black forest run back to Spa Francorchamps it was the star of the show, in fact the R8's admitted struggling to keep up, the car being able to put all of its power down everywhere. For a 25 year old car it was phenominal. The brakes were much to be desired but the chassis coped perfectly with the performance. It had just the right balance. Was a flukey find, in fantastic condition.
Late 2014 after much deliberation (basically after seeing JSWS3's car) I decided it needed an overhaul, engine, chassis, gearbox the lot. Now almost a year on all that's left is for the sparky to finish off the last of the electric wiring and to get fired up n dump the oil a few times. It will be detailed and have some paint shielding done. The vehicle will be run on a basic map at approx 550ps until the cars had a few miles on the clock when it will be power mapped with a few switchable maps to hopefully north of 600ps. Not sure what power it will make but to be honest my remit was a reliable thrash-able street car that can be caned on the track every now and then. I wanted the car to look completely original inside and out, and the only visible difference when you lift the bonnet up. Even then I wanted it to exude the original character of the car, to look classy and well packaged. The car has been named Hatchet Harry, (private joke).
Unfortunately the pics I have are from a while ago so it shows the car incomplete but gives an idea, will post some more when the car has been detailed.
