I thot id start a seperate post seen as the last time aye put the pics of it in with my fiesta project so here goes a seperate throad for my wee work horse as am gawney be doing a few more mods to it in the next week or two heres how it started

When i got it ex securicor no door panels 2 diffirent front seats dash all paint aswell as inside one plastic window on drivers side and fuked up rusted bodywork













So new loom with central locking eclectric windows and so all the doors and igntion start from the one key aswell as a full new interior





















Then it was time to sort out the bodywork





















Then i lowerd it























Plus stone chiped it and waxed it





Then it got painted



















Then built back up















Then stickerd up











How it looks the now "15 406 steelies done candy lime green over sparkle silver










Thinking of putting these on it in candy green



also got rs2000 sideskirts coming , smoke headlights , rs2000 recaros , rs2000 running gear , full service kit plus timing chain and loads of goodies watch this space

adie_mwell

well the engine arrived and no messing about got the old engine rippd out and started sorting the rs2000 loom out still on the wiring another shift should kill that then the engine will fall in

tigerst24

hi woundered if you could help me i have put a mk 6 rs2000 engine in my escort gti 1.8
but im having trouble with the wiring loom there is two wires coming off the top gearbox and there is also two wires coming from the teromsate housing and these wire all go into one big plug and there is no where to plug it into on my car and the wires that come from the ecu loom to the key chip there is 8 wires off the rs2000 loom and only 6 on the loom that is on my car.
many thanks yvonne

adie_mwell

hi mate you need the headlight loom from a rs 2000 to sort out the gearbox wire(reverse light) and the one on the thermostat theres actually 2 one for your temp and one to cut ur fan on am sure that headlight loom will give u the end for the multiplug to plug into and theres a small loom abt a metre long tht runs from the key transponder to a multiplug on that headlight loom that does away with the pats box
