If your interested in a p/x with a R-plate panther black escort gti then i might be your buyer!
Only issue ive got is your location as im in west midlands but sure we could sort that out if we did a deal.

Couple of questions, whats the deal with the front number plate? is it legal? and also do you have any idea of what bhp its producing?

Nice car this one Looks the buisness

 

no worries mate, good luck with the sale though, nice looking motor

 

look mint mate! shame it aint 100% RS like?

 

yeh i know mate.couple of other xr3's converted for sale on the site.dont see the problem.mite as well the most of a good shell,the car needs to be seen,whole lot of car for a good price.

 

Great looking car Iv'e got to say I REALLY don’t see the problem with it being a 3i shell, I mean about 99% of RS's on the road will of had there engine removed/replaced at some point in there long life and as can been seen from the pic's this car is obviously been done correctly and very well looked after. All I see is that your getting a very nice car for not much money grab it while you can

 

cheers mario the car is in excellent condition,i wouldnt hav went to london to bring back rubbish.

 

Dont see a prob myslef being an XR3i on the books - fookin nice car mate, best of luck wit the sale

 

the car certanily looks mint but i think people are moaning because in your description your making out its an rs turbo and no mention of it being a 3i

 

yeh fair point,sorry folks,yous know now.photos are good but car has to be seen underneath and that 2 appriciate it.any questions feel free to pm

 

If you edit the title in your first post to read "MINT Turbo converted low comp XR3i in white" you'd get more interest.


Fucking nice looking car btw m8 Want to swap for a turbo'd XR2? LOL

 

cheers rab.got ma next car lined up,love the xr2 turbos tho,so much fun,will get a few different photos of the car up guys

 

interested in your car m8 can i come have a look at it? can u email me ur mobile number or somethin so i can get in touch flushthatlooeuan@hotmail.com

 

pm'd ya

 

Well, I'm going to put all my bits into a mint 90 spec XR3i.

As much as I love the XR2. I just can't get a decent intercooler, or uprated turbo parts for the XR2.

Ah well. Good luck with the sale it's a gorgeous car!

 

cheers again rab.getting quite a bit of interest and sum good comments

 

well nice

 

can i just ask mate, how did you get round getting the reg plate lit up at night with its position there?

 

haz 87.it had a wee light that stuck on under the plate.ive changed it back to original cos i think it looks better wae a standard rear end

 

Did that guy ring you and view it in the end?

 

he hasnt got in touch yet,cheers to dav8yboy for the help with the jacking point cover

 

still for sale folks .two brand new tyres and samcos on there way.going in at weekend for front wheel bearing done and service then shes ready to go

 

hi mate its dave who u bought the car from {the bloke who built it} if it helps this chap bought this car from me about a month after i had just built it with fresh paint and using mint parts if not new to complete i had only done about 80 miles in it when he bought it from me so it wasnt even run in the car was minor things away from being concourse and buy the looks of it still is there was no rot any where on this car as i searched high and low for the best shell poss to do this conversion with. all the bits from my old rs turbo were used nothing remaind from the xr3i ie loom /fueltank/dash /although they are the same i even repaired the loom and re taped it in blue tape which was bought from samco.i am a ford mechanic and have only ever owned and driven rs turbos and cossies and to be completely honest was 100% gutted when i sold it and if i dindt have two cossies and it was closer i would buy it back without even thinking twice the description of the car doesnt do it justice as there is so much detail on this car and if u have any questions about this car you should ask them as u wont be dissapointed i assure u as there is loads of stuff on this car and i think it is going cheap to so grab yourself a proper motor .its pukka unique and deffo mint

 

to haz 87 what i did was bought a 12v map light [type r] from halfords on a flexi shaft and wired it to the original wires from the number plate light i then drilled a hole in the bumper and had the shaft stick out the bottom of the plate and just bent it up facing the number plate pukka one rear number plate light it even had a switch on it to change from white light for obvious reasons and then a blue light for show time hope that helps . ps sorry to stevenebm i feel like im hijacking your post but only trying to help mate. cheeRS

 

lovely looking car m8 personally i wouldn't give a shit about it being a 3i either i mean i have aq plate turbo i bought it cause it had all the main things done to it and it's something i can build on relatively cheapley(plus i'm learing stuff as i do mostly all of the work on the car myself)nah m8 if that was a rs you would get a lot more than Ł3,500 for it ...you should just keep it an really go to town on it...

 

cheers boys.thanks bailey 1,will get a copy of the photos your rebuild and get them posted to you,you still at same as address as on log book,as bailey 1 says the photos are good but the car has to be seen and driven,cant hear the engine running and an excellent sound fae the exhaust,the way a turbo should be.

 

yes mate my address is 14 evenlode close aylesbury bucks hp21 8tb cheeRS bud.

 

Lovely motor mate and very fair money IMHO.

This confused me though.......

Thought the looms were totally different as the 3i was EFi while the RST was MFi? If not I have paid a lot too much in recent years having a convertible 3i done to RST.

Jeff

 

to k&j motors hi mate the loom came from my s2 turbo as did the dash and fuel tank bumpers kit and spoiler what i was getting at was the fact that i had changed everything to turbo spec from my turbo doner car.if this helps all mk 4 looms inside are the same the management looms are different but unlike fiestas which use a multiplug to separate the looms mk 4 escorts dont they are hard wired i have done conversions on to many turbos fom cabbys to opick ups to vans and i have done it both changing complete looms or chopping out what i dont need and replacing it with what i do need . hope that helps ya mate

 

new blue samco boost hoses are now on,tyres go on tommorow.to bailey1.al get the photos in at the weekend and get a copy 2 u as soon as they are developed
