then there must be something up, you have to look at it it's only a 1.6 with low power regardless of the weight and quality of driver, there just isnt the torque! no you can't marry me, i'll leave that to the girlfriend, but u can go buy the civic from who owns it! oh and it's 'Gibbs' god, people who can't spell eh Polley!

not to re start a arguement

but mine stright line driving used to spin through 1st, second and changiing into 3rd in the dry with very good tyres on it

maybe becasue it was a strong engine, or the car has no weight etc etc

the l is next to the k, i meant stalk convertor, gbh motorsport have the 900bhp skyline and glenns supra is just under 800 bhp! fortunatley my best mates dad has the nemesis supra so we all go the shows togethor!
Both supras are imense in terms of power, it was at 100 mph whatever gear, pribs 3rd thinking as kick down your correct but still
