Back to the car, I sent him a message along the lines of "Leather interior? Looks like cloth in the pics".

Response: "sh*t sorry mate", so that's one correction made in the auction!

WRX is turbo-ed :winky:

Standard RS200 would need to be dropped from an Airplane.............at a great height

Maybe your talking about the X-Box rs200? :D

[altezzawill]

no man ive been in an rs 200 doin 145 and there was loads to go! wasnt mine by the way i was jus ridin shot gun

[Steve ( West Mids )]

but the car does do 180mph you can see from the pictures

So because the speedo says 180 ( yes the K has been blotched out from the KM ) then the car must do it, right

i sent a message asking about the 4 wheel drive......

oops the wife filled out the details, it should have said 2 axle rigid body

I'd expect an RS200 would be capabile of close to 150mph on the speedo( speedo's are less accurate over 100), but there's no way it could have enough puff to get to 160-170 mph, think of the wind resistance at those speeds...... Anybody else think it can?

I know gearing has the final say ( but needs puff to turn it ) .... can't see Toyota gearing a 2lt car to try and reach Porsche speeds......

I've backed off at 140mph thats the speed that my gps was giving me, and speedo was reading 160 ,

the car was still pulling, think it would top out 150ish just ran out of run way

has any 1 had there altezza past 150

because i have seen a top speed de-limiter on tdi site which is 115+ fitting is it worth doin

[Noel]

If you get an Apexi RSM it will delimit the car as well as give you "facts & figures" 0-60, Top speed acheived etc...... and if you get the G-shock option it will tell you how many G's you were pulling going sideways.... not everyone's cup of tea, especially if your old an frown at discussions like this..... I'd like one myself ... not that young at 34 but loves gizmo's :)

[altezzawill]

think that's a question for the FI boys

I really don't think there's much point, there's not really any chance to use a speed like that unless you want to go over to Germany, or you want to chase turbo's and super cars up the motorway
