Blown Bora @ DOVW

[MRJZ]

Hey Guys

Is the person who owns the blown silver bora on BBS with Brembos a member here?

I'd love to know what it took for him to get it to where it is, etc...

Jim

[Mrk_Mickey]

Wow I've never heard of a blown Bora around here, maybe someone should scout him out and recruit him if he's not already lurking? :D

[phaeton]

I spoke to both the R32 owner Mario and the Bora owner and told them about the forum perhaps they'll join soon.

That Bora was well presented :D

[Pullstarter]

That really is the ultimate 6 cylinder sleeper for me, all that extra power and 4mo, mmmmmmm tasty :bowdown:

[phaeton]

The Bora onwer also stated that he smoked a new R36 recently at a track day somewhere :D

[Pullstarter]

I'd believe it! Always wanted to FI one of those! Damn lack of money :duh:

[qsilverza]

To much money for not much gain ! 100 Hp above the 200 hp we have for about 15k odd after brakes etc etc. Better off selling and buying an S4.


Not that I wouldn't do it if I had the means ! Awesome bora though.

[Tim]

you could say that about any car.
Its nice to have something unique I think.

[Tony Carabott]

Hi there Thank You. The car is making just a little over 300kw we think Ha Ha

[goodfella]

AWESOME!!! Eat that R32/36 drivers Ha Ha!

My questions now follow....

Is it a handful to drive daily?
How has the running gear held up?
Do you have a complete list of mods associated with the S/C upgrade?
Would you recommend the upgrade to other V6 (ahem) drivers?

Cheers and Welcome,
Dave

Hi Dave,
The car is actilly awsum to drive not a handfull at all till you put your foot down lol. The running gear has been great except for one time sharing all six bolts on a front CV. I do have a list of all the mods and I would recomend the upgrade its awsum.

[Tony Carabott]

[Tony Carabott]

Sorry about the quility the camera on the phone is all we had on the day

[Pullstarter]

Feckin awesome car man! If you ever want to sell let me know :)

[MRJZ]

Hi Tony

I'd love to see a mod's list and hear where you purchased the S/C from, issues, etc...

Thanks

Jim

[Tony Carabott]

Cool no problems Jim,
Perhaps we can catch up on the 7th and have a chat.

[Pullstarter]

I'm sure the guys here would love to know what parts you replaced and how you found the S/C conversion etc. if you can spare the time :)

[Mr_Drozz]

Tony that is freakin awesome!!!

I have nothing more to say

[99gti]

Awesome doesn't do this justice! Not only would it go like a scalded cat but damn it looks so nice n clean too. Props to you!

[qsilverza]

300 KW is nothing to sneeze at ! I thought it had 300 +- HP because that's what the stage II VF kit is but I just assumed it was one of these.

Awesome. Is it a stock exhaust ?

If you want I would be happy to take a video and than edit it as long as you don't mind me taking a couple of weeks !! :) With the editing of course.

[phaeton]

Welcome Tony :D

I'm Ben the one who spoke to yourself and Mario (and your wife) about how good looking the Bora was.


As you can see we're all in awe of your Bora :eek:

Do you have a vid of the Bora smoking the R36 :bowdown: ?

[MRJZ]

Cool no problems Jim,
Perhaps we can catch up on the 7th and have a chat.

Sounds like a plan Tony.

I'm sure there will be a lot more people interested aswell...

1 major question, did you do it yourself or have a shop help you out, if the latter, could I get a name?

Thanks

[Tony Carabott]

Yeah cool no drama more then happy for you to take as much video as you like next time I take the car to a track day. I will let you know in advance.

[Tony Carabott]

Hi Ben, Thanks for take'n the time to chat at the DOVW. Im sorry I don't have a video of the R36

[Tony Carabott]

Hi there Jim,
Im looking forward to meeting all you guys, You all sound Awsum....
As for all the work and mods I did it all myself.

[vwthunder]

Hi there Thank You. The car is making just a little over 300kw

[Tony Carabott]
