Well guys finally got aroudn to hosting the pics of the clubman that a mate in South Africa, Ross Buchan, has developed. He took to the dyno and it put out 380 with NOS. Anyway here some pics...

Cheers

Matt

Thats a neat front end. The bar and intercooler look like they belong!!

That is awsome!!!
I had a ride in a mates turbo charged 20v corolla putting out around 350bhp tonight, and it was ****** scary!!! Got up to 160kph in seconds.. Imagine how fast this clubby would be!!

so when's the perfomance build-up happening so you can make more at the wheels?

man this just makes me feel like putting mine in finally. thanks for sharing Matt

Yeah that is impressive hey, it sounds high but I trust this guy he doesn't seem like a fibber. And the layout of the car seems to back up the figure. Hugh as for mine, yeah would love to do some development, but really want to go a garrett gt25 but may just end up settling for a t25 either way making the manifold will be straight forward and should give some reasonable gains. Ahh to have even 2 grand.

Cheers

Wonder what turbo is being used. The manifold (well, the fact that you can't see it) seems odd. Generally, very generally, when you see big horsepower 4EFTE's they have a big bunch of bananas sticking out with a huge mother of a turbo. The cramped route of the air intake kinda indicates it may be the factory turbo.......

stock motor with a 280 shot of nitrous...

CUSH stop being silly they don't make 280HP NOS Kit's otherwise their would would be a lot of 282HP Vespa's getting "around"

the turbo looks stock or at least very similar to mine (EP91) and is definatley on the stock manifold. It's a little akward the stock induction on a 4efte

now there's an advert that the 4efte is a good choice of motor for your fast mini project.

if only I had the time to start mine I would possibly have the time to finish

not sure about the extended front tho

How much extended is the front?

Fark I'd love a ride in that mini.. the 350bhp corrolla was rediculous.. this has more power and less weight.. oh that would be fun!!! That much acceleration is the best feeling.. yes, better then sex.

Nice Post Matt.

Good info there!

Cheers,
Andrew

P.S. would be happy with half that hp!!

having another look i dont think its an extended front , its just that the body kit sits out

that is pretty crazy tho, the starlet motors look good in minis
