Selling my turbo viento this year

Luego Viento For Sale


I am selling my Luego Viento, built by myself over a few years

It started out with a c20xe engine running through a type 9 on twin 45 dellortos

I soon got used to the power so the quest for more began, and only 6 monts since passing sva the c20xe was removed and i came across an sr20det

This was fitted over the winter and now this engine has been in the car for 2 years now and my god its crazy now

The car passed sva on the first retest and date of first registration is 09 04 2009, failed due to a few sharp edges and the speedo not reading correctly

The car has 10 months tax left and has done just over 1600 miles since passing

The reason for selling her is that i am starting on a new project soon, I have a 1987 land rover 90 that needs a full strip down and rebuild



Chassis and bodywork

Chassis is factory made buy Luego, powder coated black but is coming off in a couple of areas
Its double wishbone suspension all round with polybushes, and i had the crush tubes plated so they wont rust
The bodywork was supplied buy Luego as well but i believe they outsourced all the fibreglass work
The bodywork is in a bright red colour with alloy side panels
I have fitted my custom made aero screen but i ran out of time to get it painted so it is white at the moment and in the photos but it will be painted black to match the cycle wings and bucket seats



Engine and Transmition

321bhp sr20det engine from an s14 200sx, all alloy engine
760cc injectors
Z32 air flow meter
Uprated engine mounts, they are nice and stiff but remove the vibrations
Tubular exhaust manifold with t28 turbo charger, small ish size for quick spool up but still makes good power
Uprated wastegate actuator
SARD r2d2 dump valve
3" straight through exhaust
Sierra 2wd cosworth intercooler
Apexi air filter
Apexi power fc programmable ecu with hand held remote display
AVC-R electronic boost controller
Std 200sx gearbox
ACT superlight billet steel flywheel
Exedy uprated organic clutch
Custom made dunning and fairbank propshaft
Bosch 044 motorsport fuel pump
Pace products caterham 4 core racing alloy radiator



Running gear

3.92 ford sierra lsd rear diff (comes with a 3.62 crown wheel and pinion, matched pair, if you wish to change the ratio)
Front uprights are sierra 2wd but have been fitted with the calipers and discs from the xr4x4, the calipers have a larger diameter piston and therefore giving you more stopping power
Rear disc brakes from an xr4x4 as well
Std escort mk2 steering rack, i have a 2.9 ratio rack that will be included with the car, it just needs fitting
Gaz adjustable dampers



Wheels

Fitted with team dynamics pro race 1.2 in silver
15" x 7" on the front fitted with 215/50/15 toyo r888
17" x 9" on the rear fitted with 275/40/17 kumho v70
The car also comes with a second set of wheels, they are tsw cataluna 17" x 7" fitted with cheap 205 tyres



Interior

2 fibreglass bucket seats fitted with red 4 point harness
VDO cockpit vision electric speedo driven from the pick up sensor inside the gearbox, with matching rev counter, water temp, fuel and oil pressure
Stack boost gauge
I have a replacement carbon dash that i was meaning to fit but never got round to it but it is included with the car

Ooh ooh....pedantic head on....
1987, not a Defender, that name arrived in late 1991/early 92 along with the 200tdi,
So it's a 90......like mine
<----

But mine has a 200tdi in.

If you need any advice on anything Landy then Dyke Services down behind the petrol staion in woolston is the place, Ian the owner is a guru! They have everything from a 101, tracked landy to a whicked off roadin 88. John, Ians lad happens to be a good mate of mine had a serries 2 chassis for his tenth birthday built it for his first car.
