View Full Version : Cossie powered 5
Just heard a rumour that there will be a 500bhp Cossie powered 5 at FCS.

I remember seeing a yellow rear engined one at Rockingham back in2007. Is this the same one?

It looks awesome mate. That's true dedication. You should be proud of yourself.:agree:
not painted it yetm8, still cant decide between black or white :confused:
when im ready i will do a poll and see.
hopefully by nat day it will b a different colour and inside will be a lot more complete. theres not a lot more i can do with now
except a bullet proof gearbox and more power.
I think you'd be wasting your time with more power, you're only going to have problems keeping it in a straight line.

:coffee: more power!!!:laugh:
its got 235s on the rear
oh and about 500kgs of engine/gearbox/spaceframe........
so far i havent reeally got any unprovoked wheelspin.
although i havent done any full launches but its had full throttle in 1st and 2nd so far so good, thats on a std un1 box.
before any more power i will be changing the box tho or as clee says it will be going home in a carrier bag. lol
and the 1st 1 built was front engined 4wd about 10yrs ago, and is long dead.
wirings going ok so far.
nice 1 stu love it , keep us posted on your progess ,would be intresting mate:) did you sell the bmw in the end ??
which bm? lol
if you mean the GT then no ive decided to keep it
but i do have an m3 rep 328 convertible for sale
and an m3 evo convertible soon to be for sale
the gt mate , remember i was speaking to you on e36coupe , i had to send mine , missed the five , you have loads of motors lucky guy :)
i thought i wanted a convertible but the GT is so much better ive decided to keep that instead.
im going to tint the windows, carbon airbox and re-map it
then go have some fun. lol
that looks like a bloody awesome motor! :agree: top job
well loom went in and it runs fine so i must have done something right lol
this week has seen me add
new battery,
new alternator
new loom
coilpack conversion
car now runs nicely but its killed the clutch so i need a new 1 :cry:
