told ya young caroline

 

[cazxx]

.........how? :s

 

[andalayyeehah]

newer engine, basiccly the parts are newer and just that little bit better, so the BHP is increased

 

[cazxx]

pmsl andy, tell ya what, i'll race ya when i get my VTEC next june deffo! haha

 

[Zephyr]

theres lots of small changes in the 2000+ one main thing is the coil packs rather than dizzy also throttle body

 

[andalayyeehah]

lol o god, a caz with VTEC

mines comin in september so u will have the same 3 month head start, and my car will still have more power as standard mwa ha ha ha

 

[mike]

The 93-99 cg10 have 55bhp but are more tunable, while the ga10a (i think) is 59bhp as it gains coils packs instead of a dizzy, loses a cat, different tb and has a Bosch Multitronic ecu rather than a Hitachi like the older cars.

andy passed his test today! was gonna race him next week when hes got used to the roads but i guess i aint got much chance of winnin then? lol

no talk of street racing on here guys, just a friendly warning. It's much more fun on a 1/4 strip anyway, plus you get timeslips.

 

[cazxx]

ok, sorry...

 

[Dr Zoidberg]

just strip the car out. make it lighter and watch him try keep up lol.

EDIT: a bit of topic-ish, but do the later 1.0 ltrs have the same torque as cg10?

 

[hughes_16v]

why is it called a ca10a and not cg10?

plus i blew off a 52plate the other week, and my car is 94(on private land)
and the later models have a few extra bits so might be heavier

 

[Ian]

i think the higher models, 1.0's and 1.3's have airconn, that would have a bit of weight to it.

 

[rlees85]

they're both CG10DE, just the 2000+ ones have the changes as mentioned above.

Fit a K&N, and your even

 

[andalayyeehah]

i looked at fitting induction kit to my car, apparantly its a right effort and u end up having to move the battary or sumthing .... fook that lol

 

[Zephyr]

there be no increase in terms of speed with just a filter only thing u would notice is noise
