Ok, with a very very heavy heart I'm selling 'the judge'
Originally built by B-8-D on this very forum, this is a very quick and reliable car.
Since I've owned it I've replaced the clutch, radiator, turbo (stock T25) and engine.
The current engine had a full head rebuild by Simon (B-8-D) and after I purchased it I fitted new big end bearings as a matter of precaution. The original T28 turbo was goosed so I fitted a good T25 I had lying around.
The car is very solid. No welding required.
Very brief spec is as follows:
1976 viva coupe shell
Low mileage rebuild CA18DET
Frontera FMIC
Stage 2 apex chip
K&N type filter
MBC currently set at 14psi though the car will easily take 21+
almera slimline radiator
Boost gauge
Monster tacho
Alloy fuel cell mounted in the boot
Uprated fuel pump
200sx gearbox
Custom prop
Triumph tr7 back axle
Unknown lowering springs
Fibre glass front wings
Volvo 240 calipers
Renault 21 discs
Bluebird turbo front seats
I guesstimate 250+ bhp with very little lag on the T25
It's a very very fast car. Last week I took it to Avon park raceway for the viva outlaws drag day and left with the fastest viva of the day!
Amusingly as seen on the day those new mustangs were running 16.0 seconds and the supercharged ones were only just breaking into the 14s!
My first shakedown run was a 15.8 quarter
Next run slightly quicker was a 15.06
And my first proper run was a 14.05 at 105mph. This was only on 14 psi of boost and my next run was set to be at 21psi but we ran out of time. This is easily capable of a low 13 second pass!
She's MOT'd untill July but is untaxed and my insurance has lapsed so can't do it for you.
Starts first time every time and runs as a 200sx would.
The only negative (other than upsetting the jones' next door) is that she is fudgin;g LOW!!!
;
Ideally could do with maybe 15-20mm extra up front as it doesn't like bumpy roads.
I'll let the pics and vids do the talking
And the money shot
Against a 2.0 zetec turbo fiesta.
As I've said this has been a very hard advert to write but I'm wanting a mini van and need to raise the funds somehow.
£2000 or very near offer.
Thanks
Ross
