[Guest chriscapriman]

managed to get 10 posts in today without too much spamming so here we go, my 2.0 laser. ive had it since april 07, it is my second capri and about my 6th OSF. all my cars have been fords since mk1 fezza thro to my current 03 fezza.

 

all set up now via whitegates (ric wood) rolling road. 38dgas, fr30 cam, ashley manifold, ss system, bestek ign, kenlowe fan, it is runnin 117hp at the flywheel (101 at the wheels) and 155 lb/ft, whcih explains why it pulls so well . lowered 2'' at the front with ebc green pads. full polybush kit to fit, 2.8 rear springs and 1'' blocks when i can be arsed . inside is std laser apart from dvd head unit and uprated jbl speakers behind std grills

TooAteLeed they are 10 spoke 15x7 performance alloys advertised in CF and RF mags, imported from Oz, laquer on rims need a bit of a touch up now and 205/50 r15 falkens. its lowered 2'' at the front and sagging an inch at the back got a new springs, polybushes and 1'' blocks for the back, just need to pull me finger out and fit it all

 

 

Nicki4i, yes it is, im a geek and need to grow up , put it on as a bit of an in-joke when the film come out last year and it has... erm ... stuck

 

put these tinted back lights on it the other day, unsure at first but i like em now looks like roy orbison, which i think is a positive

at least its on the road twatty bollox it hasnt had an oil leak in ages (breather system fooked) and it starts sound now cos the alternator isnt shorting since i swapped it prob need to do the valve clearances as the cam has bedded in now and it sounds a bit tapety (even tho it doesnt have tapets )

[bronze4door]

[Guest chriscapriman]

yes you will , here it is on ric woods rolling road 117hp and 155 lb/ft @ 4125rpm not spectacular hp but pretty good torque and nice smooth curves

mate, id be happy with those figures! remember, bhp sells engines and torque wins races! what diff you got, a 1.6 diff ration would have you flying out the gates! exhuast looks pretty low, how hard is that over the bumps?

ive got the std 2.0 diff cos it gets used on the motorway alot between liverpool and manchester and up and down the country to shows, im happy with it as is tbh but i have got a 1.6 axle if i ever fancy a change o decide to go drag racing

 

the side on pic (the one in my avater) was taken before the new exhaust was done and it used to scrape over speedbumps, kerbs, rizzla packets and everything else new one is sound now, no knoking or scraping anymore

[Guest chriscapriman]

ohh and i am happy with the figures for what ive had done, ric was (or at least said he was and acted) impressed by the torque aswell
