Cars to watch out for at Mumbai Drag

Watch out for the Ferrari 355, with Tubis too. A car for the twisties, nonetheless I would kill to listen to it at full chat.

Hey Rehaan, i'd seen that Skyline R-34 too, some year and a half back at Lokhandwala Andheri one night. The reason why the spoiler seemed different was cuz it was a Nismo spoiler. Any idea bout the car now?

i've see the R34 bone stock identical to the pic a few years ago in bandra, the dealer also had a jaguar XJR convertible at the same time , he quoted 27 lacs for the skyline & 80 for the jag,but both were headed to banglore

No sign of them here, 80 is too much for an XKR reckon 55-60 unless spanking new

Is the "evo6" from banglore gonna be comming down?? That would sure as hell be fun to watch..... and would definitely give this "250bhp RS" a run.

Well the 180 bhp RS can be tuned to 210 with a chip upgrade. Now, the Indian version has 150bhp (30bhp less that the one abroad) so even with a chip upgrade, that figure would rise to 180bhp (like iceman said). Prob the 250 version has a diff TC kit on it.

i don't think a chip upgrade can give 250 bhp from the same engine.

To add to the topic the Octavia RS which is being peped-up for the drag also has a 9 psi turbo installed on to it, its bigger than the stock one. Another car being prepared for the drag is a Lancer with a EVO VIII engine which produces 320 horses its being done up somewhere in lokhandwala to mhada area, hope any of you guys can get hold of it tried a lot but cant find it, its black in colour and looks as good as a road running car, the only way to get a glimpse is by listening to it, hope someone gets the pics of it
