The Ultimate 8V Thread (The 8V Appreciation Society)

I think someone should buy this to increase the 8v numbers. I would if i had the space.

My 8v before she was brutally nicked and set fire to

 

I just can`t help myself...

Acquired yet another 8v

 

Nice stu got to love the mk3 cabs would you like to become are Society VP? as you are a moderator?

 

Nice one Stu

 

A quick snap of the (ever-growing!) fleet...



(L-R); Mk3 TDI - 1.9 litres of 90bhp, 8v goodness (8v torques + Diesel torques = UBER torques!)

Mk3 Cabriolet - 1.8 SPI. HPI report proves 8v torque rules; apparently it has 70bhp, but 140lb/ft of torques!!!...*

Mk1 Cabriolet - 1.8 Digifant. Bit of an odd-ball Europe only (AFAIK) engine. Still the 112bhp we all know and love with plenty of 8v torques.

Mk2 GTI - Started out life as an K-Jet 8v. Proved impossible to kill and saw off a couple of gearboxes, and three clutches with it`s torques. Now houses another 8v (x3-4) engine...

For reasons of parity and fairness however, the GF has herself a Corrado with a lump of ABF-goodness up front that I fitted a while back.




She loves that car as you can see, and doesn`t let me near it, but I can forgive her with that ass...

So all I`m missing now is a triumverate of 6-pots (12, 24, and 32v) for the full set.






*Caveat emptor... This is obviously a typo/mis-calculation...

 

Notice your lass has to wear very lightweight shoes to make up for the lack of torque from that ABF engined Fat Scirocco.

 

Picture of a pretty lady and all you can look at it is the shoes...tsk, tsk...

 

Manors maketh a man.

You got the "green t shirt" these days anyway.

 

My missus had a strictly controlled diet to maintain her size 8 figure required for riding shotgun in the valver with only feeble KR torques...

She is now banned due to being pregnant and fat. Power/weight ratio would be in tatters otherwise

 

Please sir if you would mind not swearing in this thread the words (valver 16v) are not tolerated here

 

Can an 8v mod move 16v into the swear filter please?

 

What have we said about that word we shouls just put 1*V

 

So if it's a NA 8V, are the valves on the other side?
