ELEGNT's RColt Version R

[ELEGNT]

Well everyone here is my new car its a 06 Colt Ralliart Version R (version R isnt released any more, its the JDM model and was only avaliable for 2 years, came with different rims, tinted headlights and recaros. new ones dont have any of this)

It had 19k on the clock when i got it and i picked it up for 17250.

The handling is amazing even stock and surprised me very much up nebo last thursday night. Performance is also very suprising for a 1.5 turbo.

overall its no where near as pimp as my aurion but it is 1000x more fun to drive and im loving every minute of it!

i got it stock but so far i have added

- Boost Guage (in psi)

- Pedders springs (dropped over 50mm)

- Upgraded boost (from 12 to 17 psi)

keep watchin for more mods and please comment :D

here are some pics

got pedders springs installed on friday, handles great and love how it sits (not sure how much more its going to settle but when i had kings in my old car they came down a fair bit more over the following week)

sorry for the crappy pics these are just of the springs

here are some somewhat nicer photos that i took the other night

You mean the evo 8 MR :)

[cruzer]

that is soooooooooooo coool

[Tofuboi]

I tell you what...

I'm damn well tempted to buy one of these for a OMFG fun car. When I come up to Queensland next, I am so meeting all the QLD guys and getting a ride in that car. :P hahahaha.

[Guest]

as much as i would love to hate on that car because its a colt, I cant... its a brilliant little thing, small, 4cyl, turbo... what more could you ask for? we need more manufactures making cars like this...

I certainly had trouble keeping up with ro in the yaris... will see if i fare any better in the celica!

[ELEGNT]

kolourhero - doesnt the 8 MR and 9 have the same seats?

Tofuboi - not a worry mate when u thinking about coming back up?

Mick - yeh man everyone says, its a colt, gay blah blah, but its great on fuel, small, handles like a dream, got recaros, has heaps of performance potential with the turbo and as is is nearly as quick as the aurion

Not sure yet. I came up about august last year to visit a mate. I might try for jan or feb, depending. :P

The colours are similar but the design and materials used are slightly different.

The Biggest difference is the 9 has leather bolsters
