Cheers m8 but it won't be getting anything with twin webers, i've got one Fiesta pushing 150 bhp already and this is my daily drive.

 

Cheers for all your wonderful comments :D

You putting arch trim on it or leaving it?

 

Deffinatly not putting arches on it. I've got two XR2's already I don't need a look-a-like as well. If the arches were rot, i'd consider it but they are mint so it staying original.

 

You don't see many 1300 Sport's anymore in orignal guise, so I think i'll leave well alone. :D

im lovin it, 175/50's and some lower springs should do it..... :wink:

 

oh and marts mates 1700. :lol:

 

The black XR2 below is running 195 / 45 / 13 and has about 2 inch of ground clearece, and should be pushing out about 150 bhp by now 8) .

Anything less would probably be a dissapointment as I would be comparing them :? . I have a balls-out Fiesta and I don't need two, this is my daily drive to work so will remain half sensible :roll: .

 

The tyres on it are 175 / 60 which are condsiderably lower than the 185 /60 that it came with, and I will be lowering it slightly just to close the gap up a bit :) .

 

I may stick a 1700 (with twin choke) in it eventually as I have many XR2 engines spare, but i'm in no rush, if I want to go fast I just jump in the black one.

 

Thanks for all your nice comments people :D
