LMFAO well said

oh you still own this car??? Sheeeet!

just threaten to report him to ebay, say you know its your old one and its not genuine RS2000, or just report it lol

My uncles 2.8i Xpac Convertible up for grabs... i know some people on here dont like convertibles, and i am not so keen on them myself, but at the end of the day, if you like it then buy it, if you dont then dont! http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1983-FORD-CAPRI-2 ... dZViewItem item number: 160250811412

how much would you say a mk3 capper weighs without an interior? just has 2 front seats, door panels and dash... 2.1 pinto

SCREWIN!

cheers mate, harold hill

... as above lol

nice mate

T*SSERS! if that was me coming home to find that i would have kicked there F*kin heads in and told them to piss off bak to poland

Wrong wheel Drive!

ahh, i wondered why i saw a bloke walk out of tescos with a trolley full of nothing but cooking oil! thing is when i went and looked, even vegetable oil is 80 something pence per litre i think... still better than £1.20+

my uncle used to run pure filtered out chip fat in a mk3 tranny 2.5di for about 3yrs no probs, only problem is, used chip fat when cold is quite thick, transit 2.5di's have no glow plugs! it didnt like starting on pure much... oh yeh and if your sat at the lights, everyone around you will probably smell a chip shop nearby...

if your facing uphill its easier, or rolling backwards, but i normally give it a rev, drop the clutch, left foot brake, rev rev rev. smoke everywhere... if you fancy completely wasting the tyres (keep an eye on the engine temp) keep going and you will notice it gets easier until you can slap it in 2nd and carry it on with smoke coming through the carpet until you can barely breathe, no one can see you through smoke, then when you feel theyre about to pop, let off the brake and off you go up the road (private of course ) sideways

will the type 9 put up with the power? ive got a recon type 9 that came from a 2.8i, dont know if it was originally 2.8i but its got a 2.8i bellhousin... been told that it wont last long???

nice i just got my hands on a whole granada cossie, runs and drives lovely £400 and its on my doorstep will you please keep me posted on how the engine goes in would like to keep my eye on this one good luck with it

PMFSL

pauln, could you tell me exactly what mondeo these calipers and pads are from? and could you adapt them to a mk3 cappa 2.8i strut? im doing a 24v cosworth conversion and the 2.8i brakes i dont think will be up for it? do you need a bigger master cylinder to go with these?

been up that road a few times, came bk from blackpool to essex on a holiday, took 9hrs...

2.1 pinto.... erm what size engine is it? nice one, hopefully i should be able to make it to a couple of shows soon looks like fun...

just been thinking, i know it would cost but, i saw pearl black... lovely, then i just saw a capri on here thats pearl black with purple in it. how about pearl black with like cobalt blue tint in it, is that even possible???? havent seen that and i recon it would look niice

Yeah... thats the reason its in the garage now lookin like a heap of sh*te! plus i do like a nice lookin motor, dont we all... anyway hows that tina of yours? aint even seen it yet!

what color would you all prefer on a mk3 capri?? i know yellow looks good, and gloss black, but im thinking something different... like VXR blue? (yes i know its a vauxhall color) can anyone by any chance photoshop a VXR blue capri?

how can you not like forums, his loss! forums are the don, you want to know something, ask on a forum and you shall find out! anyway thats one beast of a mk1 capri but whats wrong with the original power bulge
