I know it's not the same engine, but it's a green evo engine.
Are we way past the possibility of it being sprayed?

Either way I wonder what brakes he has for stopping the thing, I bet that little pug wouldn't be a nice place to be with all that power.

Front calipers and disks from a 306 gti6 are a nice upgrade for any 205, I guess you could get some track pads also if you were tracking it but on the road I'm sure normal pads and gti6 calipers would be fine...

The 306 gti6 is what? a 170bhp,1200kg 135mph car? An evo engine is anything from 250bhp+, in a car the size of a matchbox which is probably capable of a fair bit more than 135mph I would want something more substantial than gti6 breaks stopping me. Mind you ive seen novas running 2ltr red top engines on standard brakes so anything is possible I guess.

The brakes only have to stop the weighted momentum of the car at speed. Given this 205 (if it is) will likely weigh in quite light, I don't see it being a massive issue. Tyres will be more important

Can someone please reboot the OCUK sarcasm detector please.

That thing is knackered.

To be honest mate Its not the brakes or the engine I think its the fact its a 205 with that engine in it that I wouldn't trust it, it could have the anchors of the titanic and it wouldn't stop me

. I would probably end up jumping in and writing thing off in the first 10 mins

Constella 205 Evo.

I hear the chassis twists off the line...

Vince · 8 Jun 2011 at 00:17

Talking about 205's Discovery turbo has wheeler dealers on now doing guess what?.... No other than a pug 205 1.9gti.

Yep, exactly. 205's don't weigh that much.

Standard 205gti's have 243mm disks, I know someone who is running 264mm disks and calipers from a 306 16v along with a 180hp engine and does not issues with brake fade... 306 gti6 brakes are even bigger at 282mm so I think that these would be up to the job.

That said, 200hp+ in a 205 would be a little crazy, they can be pretty snappy on the limit :eel:

well you know.. spray paint isn't expensive.. plus on the OP's pic you can see an Mitsubishi badge..

I think this is why forum code needs a [sarcasm] tag

we've just established those are red though and this is one is green so it must be something else

It is 100% an evo engine and has been powdercoated.

The dark green painted engines were specialised HKS, this is not one of those for sure.

That Evo engine should push out well into the 300bhp ATW mark.

That the RC Developments Evo 5?

Christ guys, there was some serious fail in this thread!

I found it hilarious...

Listen, if you can't help us identify the engine, then you can push off quite frankly.

OK OK,

It looks really similar to this engine:

That be an evo engine. But....

There are differences so I can't be sure...

Peerzy · 8 Jun 2011 at 11:41

People are reading too much into the fact it's got Mitsubishi written on it, the clue is it's green.

I've found it.

It's become clear after a few drinks last night that this is infact not an engine but a 300bhp lump of cheese

Yer, that one has blue pipes!

MrSix · 8 Jun 2011 at 12:09

Couldn't be arsed to read the thread. But is that an evo engine?

Lol at everyone.

Definately an old Flathead V8.

I can tell by the carbs.

Flatheads are V6's. Only three exhausts on each side. I should know, I've got one.

What engine is this?
