Hello all,



I'm Arvid from The Netherlands, Europe. New here on the forum to pick up tech tips and support for the rotorengines.



Currently in a VW Lupo (two models smaller than the Golf 4) which has a Audi TT engine transplant, which equals to around 300hp on 900kg of car. But because I run a japanese car parts company a jap car is way better and currently the Lupo is up for sale and the next car will be a FD3S to be imported from Japan.



So thats a little about me, I'll see you all on the forum!



Arvid

exactly! there is only so mcuh power that a FWD can take, even with semi slicks it's still a brutal little car. But I'm willing to trade in my small turbo for a T78 turbo'd FD anyday. And as jap cars are much more exclusive that euro cars that is the way I'm going

The heavier the wooden shoe, the harder you can push the loud pedal!



And dutch, well i'm worn here....so yes



We don't have a good rotor club here, very little rotor engined cars have been sold here. Even the new RX-8 doens't go that well. But off course cars here are way more expensive than in the US
