  1. i had one of them mine was a mexico tho blah bnlah blah my dad had one of them it was a bda rs one blah blah blah hear it all the time talking of gear ratios i had a 2000e s/c c/r gearbox with a 3.54 diff an i could get 55mph in first gear was a bit of a sod off the line quickly kept bogging with the lumpy cam
  2. early mk1's didnt have a fillerneck on the car they just had a hole throught the body with a rubber grommet an the tank filler poked through that i had a 68 F reg an theres quite a few differances between them an a 70 onwards
  3. taken from net not mine
  4. thats a great prank moral of the story drivers do not fooooook with fitters we will have the last laugh lol
  5. well done that man
  6. anybody got a ali vertion of the 1300e wood kit i think thats what 5tox is looking to fitting
  7. would love to go there
  8. lol thats great
  9. i didnt do this but a friend did he removed the tail lenses of the car removed the stop bulbs rubbed a hole in the glass got out the gas filled the bulbs with gas an resealed them with clear tape fitted said parts an waited by the gate at home time to see the tail stop lights come on an blew the whole tail lights out lol i once got car window glue a glued up si's locker late at night took him two hours to cut the door open in the morning even the boss found it funny he was a bit of a know it all nobber an deserved it
  10. dont know whats with your silver top but my black top kit car goes like sh*t off a stick
  11. Thing is it will be an effort and the performance difference between 175 and 200hp in practice is night and day... granted 25 bhp is a fair bit to find but it is possible with the correct fueling cams an a nice exhaust i think it should be possible to be pretty close to 200bhp an a zetec isnt the most straight forward engine to fit into a rwd osf an can be quite costly to fit once all the parts are purchased but i was making a point that zetecs can make power alot of people slate them but i found them to be quite good althou i much prefer a yb. i told steve to go pinto anyway as there rwd to start with easy to fit bags of grunt easy to work on an easy to mod an lots of mods on the shelf
  12. come look at my dash the glove box is mk2 escort like mine
  13. for a start a st170 isnt on webbers or a 4 branch its on its own restricted daily driver set up fitting the webbers an 4 branch lets it breathe more freely giving more power the car is a tiger R6 an was a factory built car it was rolling roaded by tiger before it started to race in the tiger series an produced 175 ponys it isnt all about bhp figures torque,gearing is also very important in accelerating quickly you could have loads of power but if the gearing is wrong it will be slow in compareson to a well geared car
  14. may have to have a sticker on the car with that lol
  15. wire it up to the mains that will give them a shock theiving scum
  16. cant see that being too much effort getting near that my black top in the kit car is completely standard apart from 45's an a 4 branch an produces 175bhp
  17. deluxe
  18. this years calender is the best so far the quality of this years calender is top notch very pleased well done to those involved
  19. well spotted
  20. steer rack steer coloumn locks glass heater legs rear axle?
  21. for a pinto i would keep the english axle the lsd is far cheaper for a start an no mods are needed unless your planning to put in some big torque then atlas is the way or on the other hand if your bored then fit a 6 link bit overkill tho if your going as far as fitting turrets you might as well go the whole hog a fit a 5 or 6 link kit
  22. when i purchased my first mk1 escort it had a burton cover with a 32/36 carb on the side
  23. all alloy millington, sequential box an a fully floating atlas an probably pay someone to finish it
