Something for cerntral day

WENNY · 09-02-2010, 02:02 PM

i dont think the mk3 is going to be done for central day so im thinking of buying something else to take, maybe something i can chop up and make light and fast, thinking its got to be 4x4 cosworth, what you think any ideas

cheers wenny

KA!

dingla rs · 09-02-2010, 02:07 PM

there a 4x4 nova van on piston heads depending how much you wana spend

Christian and Beccy · 09-02-2010, 02:07 PM

Buy something that you can leave totally standard from an engine point of view, but gut it COMPLETELY. I'm thinking about that Honda they did a few years ago where they took a standard Honda Civic (non VTEC I think) and did a 17/18 odd second 1/4 with it, then progressively cut it up and re-ran it, I think it ended up in the 12's without any engine work??!!! I think it ended up being a floorpan/seat and engine.

rst in breaking · 09-02-2010, 02:29 PM

ka sounds pretty cool cossied

alan12112 · 09-02-2010, 02:39 PM

Fiesta?

Or what about a mondeo mk3? You can have mine but i'd wanna keep it afterwards

kosman · 09-02-2010, 02:52 PM

capri with yb and one seat in it.

rs tingle · 09-02-2010, 02:57 PM

Mk1 fiesta 4x4 I wanted to do one lol

orionmojo · 09-02-2010, 03:26 PM

i'll donate my cortina, you can build it and use it for central day, then give it back

No?

Fiddy · 09-02-2010, 03:35 PM

MK1 Fiesta

dojj · 09-02-2010, 03:43 PM

mk2 fiesta

Lloyd · 09-02-2010, 03:51 PM

my mate has a 400 bhp 4x4 cos breaking for spares.
as central day is not far away now,i think it would have to be a quick conversion,so cortina/capri mk 1/2 escort.or a kit car?

Pete 3dr · 09-02-2010, 04:06 PM

An Evo Wenny..............SIMPLES...............

you,ll not even need the AA then either....

It must have been a chassis, seat and engine because that is an M3 embarrassing time and at an educated guess knocking on cars with 300bhp/tonne. If that was the case a non-VTEC Civic (say VTI for arguments sake even with 150bhp) would have to have weighed about 500kg to equal that. Standard E36 M3 Evo's run roughly mid-high 13s and off memory think they something like 260bhp/tonne.

4x4 cossie power ford anglia in mat black

Glenny Boy · 09-02-2010, 05:10 PM

you shouldnt of sold the royal nail. I miss that van loads. I like the idea of a mk 1 mondeo cossie.

rossco22 · 09-02-2010, 05:43 PM

Capri is a cool idea as there arent to many yb'd ones around

Glenny Boy · 09-02-2010, 06:13 PM

How is it that people think converting a KA to cossie will be quicker than getting the Mk3 ready?

Just buy a cheap 2WD Saph, chop everything unnecessary out, weld the diff and stick the Mk3's rear wheels on it, bit of sniff and its happy days!
Bonus points if you can make the downpipe come out the bonnet

Been busy buying a Evo but back on track now, booked a couple of weeks off work to finish it

Only few shitty things left to do now.
My mates Fiesta ST is running now, 220bhp @ 6psi it made. Should be 28ish by Central day and drives lovely on then GT30..

Yours all ready to go?

COCHYN · 09-02-2010, 08:17 PM

Well it has to be a Ford. Don't turn up to a Ford show like an idiot driving something other than a Ford

Bring the Escort Cossie Wenny, bet that's never had a real run

Rob_DOHC · 09-02-2010, 08:18 PM

Think i was camping on the same field as you last year mate, your mk3 was running high 11's wasn't it? looked epic mate!

Rob,

Dicko&Sarah · 09-02-2010, 08:18 PM

wenny you need the taxi pmsl cant remember exact time but pretty sure you had it close to 11s or even high 11s on a poxy t3 and greens

WENNY · 09-02-2010, 08:37 PM

That car was a giggle, remember stripping everything out of it sat inside with the engine running just hacking the loom out of it, if the engine cut out we knew that wire was needed
