my fiesta rs turbo now its off the road again
Hi everyone hers my fiesa rs turbo its been taken off the road now for winter and some more mods to be done and few bits and bobs too get it to how i want the car looking. i got rid of the black wheels like it use to have as people will recognise the reg j660cfu rich xr2i1800 old car. watcha think people:
BEFORE WITH THE BLACK ALLOYS ON I THINK IT MADE THE CAR LOOK DULL.
And before i started to return it to originall.

yeah had a full respray in may my mate has done a mint job to. havung the engine bay repainted next and new wiring loom inside and engine loom. as mine has been messedwith to many times, and moving the battery to the boot as its in the glove box now turned sideways,
Do you think the alloys suit the car now, ive had to have a new cam even though it had a brand new kent cam. its got the newman cam and made a impressive 224 bhp chuffed with it and its still reliable.

I didnt like the wheels in black they looked shit made the car look dull i wanted silver wheels, every one is entitled to there opinions and i respect them but they were my choice in wheels and i thought they looked better than the black ones. they were rich's alloys so i wanted to chamge thecar completely, everyone has the mondeo wheels and the fiesta 5 spokes so it was all about just being different. cheers guys

it does run abit hotter but prefer it to look standard i'm going to run 2 fan's on the rad. and some heat wrap on the exhaust manifold and downpipe. the black wheels were rs2000 wheels. what's wrong with people black wheels just dont suite my car. silver make the paintwork stand out., if you had paid alot out for 2 full resprays and the wheels made the paintwork look dull, then i'm sure that you would change the wheel's. thanks for the comments

Re: my fiesta rs turbo now its off the road again
I think you have made an excellent transformation with this car:
this is how it looked when rich bought it
To this, nicely modded but i prefer the RS range to look relitivly standard
Then restored back to its former glory
Although mondeo 16" are common as they still look fresh on red cars, or a set of polished rs500 rims.
The wheels that are on the car now look 10 times better to the rs2000 rims though.
