vroooom ptssssh

Nice work Pete, one thing tho I think you've made a mistake with is fitting a felpro head gasket Standard genuine ford/Payen is the gasket to go for, Felpro's 9 times out of 10 fail between cylinders

It's Czech Mate

Pete,

please please please do the 3 dr wheels on it. The mondy 5 spokes look skinny and gash......I beg you lol

Keep the updates flowing, I fancy an frst myself one day!

Gav Diamond

Looking good Pete, always wanted a Fiesta Turbo

warleydaddy

Cheers guys...

Well if i knew to some nice 3dr rims,then id consider it,but i dont

I hope that Felro holds out Im not a big user of 2nd cars anyway,and i dont ever run stupid power,so i hope it stays in 1 piece

Cheers Gav,not seen or spoke to you for a while? Hows yours doin fella??

Pete...

Turboboy67

My Felpro blew between cylinders after 2k,

genuine Ford one has lasted 14k so far

Well im off for 4 days now,but im shaffted till my mates comes and does a few things to it for me,till i can carry on with it,but if anything happens,il let you all know...

Cheers again guys...

Pete...

warleydaddy

Only 1 ive wanted to have a go at,that i havnt done yet..So who knows ehhh

Got to get my "ford Passion" back to wanan go full hammer on 1,so il see how much this pisses me off,and if il finally knock restoring cars on the head,and uses scence,and just buy some thing i can just get in,and not have to worry about,AND isnt going to cost me hundreds every month.. (unless i get a Gallardo on finance)least that would be worth it!!

Pete...

Brian

iTrader: (2)

Looking good mate


Brian

warleydaddy

Well im not the happiest boy on the world with the car now TBH...

My 1st venture back in to RS`s in 18months,and its ending in tear ALL FUCKIN READY!!!!!!!!!!

Ok,i rebuilt the top end,as i had,what i thought was a slight cam rattle,but now everythings been replaced,and refited,ive STILL got the rattle!!!!!!!!!!

So were 99% certain its the little ends that have gone... So im in the boat now,do i keep the car as standard as poss,or do i go full beans on it...

Im looking at these 1.8 zetec bottom ends,as im not after stupid power,just abit of fun on a Sunday afternoon,as the car is a 2nd car anyway... So a 1.8 zetec bottom end,T3,1 of Waynes coolers (pro alloy),and mabye a set of Beiges,and thats all id do if i wanted to go a bit further with it.. Ohhhhhhhhh and 1 of Stus chips....

So got to look at it in a whole new ball park now,and see what i wanna do and price shit up... But 1 things for sure,its going to get a tad buftied now,might aswell paint it ALL with the engine out etc,which i didnt plan on doing,but fuck it,might aswel now....

OK...................................

Only other thing ive done,is sort out abit of wanky wiring behind the dash,where it was wired in with shitty scotch lock things,for his gauge,fit a new radio,and fit a new heated front window switch...





And heres the fuckin,bastard thing!!!!!!!!!!



Pete...
