  1. And Joe remember a seriously smokey burnout before you start, great for putting the wind up em and great excuse if your beat no grip due to worn back tyres
  2. My cars gonna need bare metaled anyways its all micro blistered Ive a feeling the resprays gonna hurt my wallet alot
  3. Its getting toward that time to respray my escort and ive a concern. Ive seen a couple of cars painted in the new water based paints and the paints always seem to crack in the gutter rail after no time at all. One car hasnt even been on the road or driven yet (its still being rebuilt) and its got cracks there too so im guessing thats this cracking in the paint isnt down to the stress and strains a shell takes on the road. Has this happened to anyone else? Is there any way of preventing this? Why didnt the cars orginal factory paint not crack in this way?
  4. One small issue my wheel well on the on passenger side doesnt have the dip in it, its the same shape as fuel tank side if that makes sense
  5. Right i wanna mount the battery in my boot preferably rear wheel well so it looks stock ish rather than a box bolted in. Now ive been told though i wont get a tray to fit in there that will hold a modern decent sized battery but really wanted it in wheel well with a clap over the top to hold it. Thoughts suggestions links?
  6. My mate has a ex rac transit 330 and wants to lower it, he loves his transit vans and was inspired by the mk3 in the back of classic ford and the v8 drift one. And was wondering would a coilover conversion on the front be poss? and would 400lb springs cope with weight of the transit?
  7. I'd be well happy with that Your a top dad mate
  8. If you spot tweeks great if you dont better still like em to look factory

  18. Bruce Wayne probably owns this!
  19. Another legend gone
  20. Seen the yellow ones exit on youtube as always excellent
  21. There not exspensive to get good power from , set of forged pistons and a nice head and cam and some 45s will see 140-160 bhp depending on head and cam , ive just gone over board , steel components dont give more power there just stronger. bigger capacity will give you a little more power , cheaper than a standard 2.0 zetec on 45s as i said above with conversion cost with similar if not more power , unless you go for the st170 engine if iam correct But 180-190+ will hurt my wallet nick you any closer to getting back "that" engine for "that" car
  22. Was she the prize
  23. They prove time and again they can deliver the goods, a very rubust engine, were it not that they were quite so expensive to get power out of mine would stay put.
  24. Think the force of impact did it boss, think bike was doing over 100+mph
