So are you saying that the Zen is going to go elsewhere ?? So what is it that you intend to build this time around ????? So is the BMW going to run next year or an all together new car with some mysterious engeries in the engine bay ???

LOL


Cheers

ricky ji the zen is my gurlfrnds daily driver and for fun i built it to the spec it is today. she is planning to 'upgrade' soon . so thats what i meant . the bmw is not something i want to run at the events, its something am building for my own ...satisfaction and enjoyment

hmm. . it would be a shame if i didnt build something for next years autocross, a swift wouldnt be a bad project car would it ? it has to be a practical city run around. what do you guys think? suggestions are most welcome.

@abhinav : lol the bmw is getting a new engine for sure but not the S50 or S52. would like to save that information for when its back the road, but its definatly going to be faster than a E36 M3 .

Oh so I smell something cooking - the Zen going, the SWIFT is coming - so what is the SWIFT going to run ?? The 125 bhp Sport GTi engine ?? Could you build me one also ??

Can we have some more details plz ???

As for your BMW - it's planned on being faster than an M3 ? What's with you dude ?? I hope I read it right !!



Cheers

Ricky not the E92 M3, the E36 M3. Swift with a 125 bhp engine + turbos (maybe twin - if possible)

What engine does Gaurav Gill's Car have? 1.3 / 1.6?

AFAIK his Swift runs a standard swift engine which is turbo charged by Leela Krishnan

@ricky : lol yea the 1.6gti engine is good but if i have to spend 1.5l + to get one then i wont bother. the same amount of money could have a 1.3 swift going as good when given the boot.

sure i can build you a nice n crisp swift

@abhinav: am not particularly a fan of a turbo front wheel drive car which has a rev limit of 6700rpm.by the time the engine comes on the boost and the smile on your face starts it hits the limiter. a NA worked on engine is soo much more enjoyable on the street. drags are a different story .
