Zetec turbo blue Orion 400 bhp aim UPDATE now running 03/10/13
http://s1357.photobucket.com/albums/...ps5b6350d6.jpg
Not sure if this pic will work as i am still trying to figure out how to work this photobucket account lol.
Basically i should have done this along time ago but im here now so i will have ago at a restoration thread for my zetec turbo orion.
Some may know it if not here it is.
I have owned it around 6 years and started as a 2.1 zvh in a cab then moved it into the orion in standard form as a 1.4 sleeper.
Over the years it has changed in various ways i painted the car around 4 years ago wish i never did now tbh.
Around 2 years ago i gave up the zvh as i was struggling to improve my santa pod times 13.3 was its best as a zvh.
I then turned full zetec and have not really done much with it in the last 2 years due to various commitments lack of time and things not going to plan whenever i got it out the garage.
Its best time as a full zetec was a 12.7 and i believe it was capable of better but various issues stopped this and it only managed 1 pod outing last year.
So with dean aka qplaterst kicking me up the bum lol this year its gonna be back and with some big changes.
Currently it is at garys aka crazy cages having some mad manifolds made to go with my new gt30 turbo.
I will update more when i figure photobucket out lol
