More than that soon:thumb.......I still think that 201 with 8psi:thumb....with a set of slicks for Jaks cars skies the limit:P

How many kw at the wheels did your car make John? I have never actually heard a figure.
I will have mine back on in a week or so, as I have been busy..I had think I had 230hp, although that was with a leaky BOV, and a few other little
glitches that have since been sorted..hope for 200kw as this is still old motor, although who cares what figures a dyno claims, feels like its going
harder, I do 500kms a week and have wasted every car that stupidly thought they were quick.
The new motor(2002) will have a custom tig welded intake maniold, new stainless headers and exhaust, a secret turbo, maybe a secret crank and a 50-75
Nos kit.
I want to run high 10's.... still a daily driver though.
Big Smile!

I can only say I did not know this untill then mate & I had an adapter plate & fly wheel here as well .
I just read the VMA Jak & was & still impressed with your build .I have the 60 coming home in the next few weeks & will do a DIY from this for all to
see .
I have also landed some more legacy non turbo 2ltr motors here for those who dod not wnat to go turbo .Its the same motor in the trike & makes 120hp
all day , the blocks are closed deck as well .These would be great for super charging .I doing one soon with a eaton M90 just for the hell of it .

Oh Neil, he's desperatly trying to work out how to put a wrx engine in his fastback as no one will help him. Can't understand why no one would want
to help the champ?

Hehehehehehe you are so funny Jak:thumb......not exactly rocket science.
I see your times have improved with the extra 100hp at the wheels,congrats on an excellent result with your conversion:thumb It's a credit to your
skills on and off the track. Looking forward to reading the next article in the VMA magazine about your racing achievements.
Jak you are the new CHAMP as everywhere I look there are photo's of your awesome beetle and wild stories of how you have slaughted all types of
racing Porsches................you are an absolute legend :kiss

Duck everyone.....incoming.
boof2332 - May 26th, 2006 at 01:17 AM
Well kids...isnt this exciting, its just like when I first started looking on the forum.
Ding Ding the next round is about to start. Im still trying to work out whether this sarcasm and constant aggressive behaviour is some form of
manifested sexual tension between you boys...DO NOT COMMENT JVL, as hard as, you, I mean , that may be... given your exploits on WRXNET.
Just from HP perspective, I think Jak would be the male in the relationsip....
BIg BAD BOOFY.
seagull - May 26th, 2006 at 02:17 AM

Hi Craig,
Congratulations are definantly in order for yourself as well. After all the money spent on new heads, 48 webbers, twin plug heads, drag cam, straight

Take care Craig.

I think you're confusing me with Greg Ward..........I run 44idf's, the same heads for the last 11years (now twin plugged), same cam for the last 11
years and no straight cut gears............
Geez, all I asked for was some track time comparisons, is that really toooooo much to ask.
squizy - May 26th, 2006 at 11:36 AM
Love actually.....exists everywhere.

No confusion at my end, alot of money there just to have a tarp sitting over it.
As long as your happy though:thumb

Oh, I think there might be!
He doesn't own a tarp for a start...

Was that your first or second year racing a bug?
I am concerned about how Craig has taken to the notion of surrendering his arse..especially to some one who has to stand on a milk crate/phone book to
do so.
I will race you seagull...think your smart poping off from perth...anyway we can finalise our details later. Back to the giver and the taker.
Lets organise a race...craig comes and does and sprint with Jak, and then Jak does a hill climb with Craig. Otherwise I have a cool marriage
councellor who can sort out your relationship..until then continue the playfull banter.

It was my 1st year. In fact the first event last year was the first time I had ever driven a VW (apart from on and off the trailer). VW's are my old
mans passion. I knew bugger all about them then and know $hit about them now (Im still trying to figure out the firing order). I just enjoying driving
them hard on the race track.
When's then next superspint?

yeah, that looks about typical for a carb-fed non-turbo 1916cc combo with aftermarket heads

seagull - May 27th, 2006 at 09:39 PM
looks like a lot of $ for liitle any thing
suff a subaru in there
VWCOOL - May 27th, 2006 at 09:51 PM
Gull, what Rizzo said is incorrect, and keep in mind Craig's hillclimb Beetle is a VW-powered VW and as such, can race in CAMS events as one without
any class/identity dramas. So is bat69's.
But having said that, I think you know I am a great supporter of 'retrotech' transplants, having done a few, including VN EFI into WB, Delco/5.0 V8
into EA Ford and co-ordinating/assisting wih a mate's WRX/Type 3 transplant.
Dude, I can buy a JDM Soobie WRX for full-fun track work for $5K, so for pure fun on the cheap, why would I fuk around with a VW transplant?
A VW-powered VW is a dak-dak-powered dak-dak! :thumb
