  1. forthed, and OT where do you get the images for youre sigs?
  2. Im in need of a capri mk3 front valance or front panel. anybody ever got one from smith&deakins? got any other suggestions? also, i need it in Bucharest, Romania.
  3. hehe, unclehood is such a sweet thing. i have two nephews and its so fun to teach them how to curse or kick some one. or you could just use them to fetch stuff.
  4. its clear, the people at fibresports dont know anything about doing bussiness. exchanged a few email telling them they have the wrong pics on the site and that i want a mk3 xpack and they give me details of the mk2 xpack. exchange a few more emails, find out that the kit actually costs 450 pounds not 350 and then i lost contact to them. emailed them everyday, from 2 accounts just to be sure its not a account problem and no answer. so finally, last thursday i call them (Romania-UK), i give them all my details, they tell me theyll email me on monday and guess what, no response. so all that money will now go into something else. few pics of my mk3 and a friends mk2, apparently one of the very few mk2 capris over here (i reckon a max of 5). this is how rusty my car is
  5. hehe, thanks to that, if i were to buy a capri right side mirror from The Uk, id have 2 adjustable mirrors
  6. Started body work few days ago.. its gonna be a real war on rust this. gonna move the discution in projects as soon as i get pictures. also, still cant post pics.. any tips there? So, no one ever bought a x pack and installed it himself?
  7. found me some front wings at a local foreign cars importer. one piece, made by maxicar costs ~60-70 pounds and one piece made by Klokkerhol costs about 100 pounds. i reckon the more expensive one is the pie. just gotta ask ppl around here for info. Cheers
  8. hello, its me again. mates, im in a pickle, i found the mk2 and mk3 xpacks on fibresports.co.uk at 350 pounds, plus the 150 pounds for shipping. That takes it up to 500 pounds and a price i could live with. Problem is, after a few emails with fibresports i asked why it says they sell wheel arches and not wings. The answer was that the bodykit with the full front wings, rear wings and spoiler is 448.00 punds, wich kinda just misses my budget plans for a xpack. What i need is to know if i can find one anywhere else, or if someone who fitted a mk3 pack could tell me how to do with the xpack wheel arches. Must mention the people at fibresports didnt show me any pictures of what they produce and sell (the mk3 or mk2 pack) Cheers P.S. i still cant upload any images This is my capri http://videos.streetfire.net/video/86d4 ... 108baf.htm yes, we were a pair of w@nkers in the car making noise and looking weird.
  9. looks cool all around. you could keep it in primer or you could paint it in the new Focus ST orange and put a sticker saying: "this is what Ford should have build". just a thought
  10. yeah the RS wheel looks the nuts!!! i want one, but they are so expensive!! i have a RS wheel somewhere but its not in a very good condition and its missing the RS center. I like the 3 spoke one i have on my car way more though. Nice clean car mate, love it
  11. seen these pics all over the net mate, great car. get some new ones or even a few vids. grats and cheers
  12. seen these pics all over the net mate, great car. get some new ones or even a few vids. grats and cheers
  13. I blocked the same thought out of my brain all day long just to not have a stroke.. ill imagine it tomorrow though.. mate, incredible car. still waiting for more details if ure willing to share
  14. the car is allways gonna treat ya like ya treat her actually, mine also starts to work better when i threten to sell her. so give it some kicks every now and then, thats a top tip. anyways, nice car, nice stance, nice clean look
  15. like it? we god damn love it. i and a friend are really thinking of doing this to our capris too.. and youre still gonna be unique cos were in a diferent country. mate, would it be too much to ask for some more details so that instead of trial and error we could know what to do? i mean, its gonna be hard enough to find a place with the tools and knowledge to do it, we could really use the help. also, how much did all this take to make? and how illegal is it?
  16. i have a clip but i cant post the link yet. its on streetfire net under '78 Ford Capri 2.3 V6 first run pretty bad quality. the A bar was put on so the owner could say he has a bumper, since we have to have bumpers on our cars here. no cop ever sayd anything about the lack of bumpers or the loud sound. i only got pulled over once for not wearing my seatbelt and i took it out of the trunk(the disconected seatbelt), showed it to the officer and he started laughing and let me go with no fine or warning.
  17. would be great if you could make a clip and put it on youtube or something. just to hear the exhaust
  18. clean looking, nice touch with the mk1 badge and chromed mirrors mate. cool ride
  19. checked smith&deakins, they do have a xpack for ~600 pounds. on CCI there's no catalogue so i requested one via email. so, basically no one ever bought from m-99? cos, they do look kinda fishy, i mean, they do all sorts of things.
  20. thanks but neither tickover or gmscaprispare have any. can i trust speedydelivery.co.uk or m-99.co.uk? since those were the first places i found the kit for sale on.
  21. so? anyone around here ever fitted a mk3 xpack? im gonna need some help.
  22. great motor. small question, where could one get a xpack from?
  23. newbie question: you got a 2.3 engine with a 2.9 efi right? what else did you do that took it up to 180 BHP?
  24. interesting story today: as the engine had no oil and so did the gearbox and the car wouldnt start (startermotor wouldnt turn) i decidet to take a shot at them. so i got some motor oil, gearbox oil, a new set of battery connectors and started messing. the result was the motor was spinning but wouldnt fire up, tho the fuel got to the carb. i started checking all the plug cables and they werent fireing. checked the distributor, looked ok (to me), changed the inductor (dont know if thats the name, the thing that goes into the distributor) and still nothing. then my dad shows up, we fill him in and he says its got no battery. like doh dad, the engine spins well, its got plenty battery. fire it up he says, i wanna see.. guess what.. the engine spins and fires up at the first turn of the key.. dammit.. after 2 hours of messing about, he comes and does nothing and the car starts at the first turn. well, now thats what i call experience, lol. ill be back with updates, im curently considering taking the car to a rally mechanic, the shop is fully equiped, bodywork, mechanics and paint. might be a bit pricey but it will surely turn up a nice car.
