as said above. the more work its had done for an m.o.t the less things that are likely to go wrong now

as for welding, with these cars you will never know what they are like till you hack away at them. it wasnt till i started wire grinding my underside that loads of seam sealer started flying off that the previous owner had spread over patches of rust
a solid week of welding later and i now have a rust free fez

Turboboy67

Mine took me 120hrs underneath

But now it looks like this

madrs247

i really realy really wanna go 2 town on her and get her all nice and shiny and running proper power


BUT if i do,then i have to sell my mk1 astra to fund,as i cant justify 2 projects for restoration

the rs is meant 2 be a daily runner thats reliable,and the mk1 is my weekend car with a nice 220bhp v6 in it

frsjon

i hope its not too bad underneath...i can see how much you have wanted one of these... i payed 2800 for mine 3 years ago...it was good money and the car was a bit of a let down but nothing that cant be sorted....mines k-reg...i bought the newest i could find and its 15 years old!! can only get better....

jayRS

be alright jon, just let me know when ya start it

madrs247

well,i found a few things out 2day

the cause of water in my floorpans,there are holes in the inner arch panel on bothsides,both filled with SILICONE MASTIC

i checked my fan works,which it does,but have no power from the loom,so need to rectify that

tried the rad,cant see any cracks or anything-but the cores are fucked from twatting the actuator and t3
the poss cause for blowing the other day.........i thought id check the stat see if that worked in cold/hot water etc

took off the housing and passed to my mate to hold,whilst i put the nuts back in place

he was looking @ the housing with a confused look on his face

turns out...........THERE WAS NO FUCKING STAT IN THERE @ ALL

SO,im off 2 see mr ford 2morro for a new stat and gasket set
anyone know the finis code????

also noticed the downpipe from the 90 elbow off the t3 has been fookin bodged ,so im on the lookout now for a new downpipe

madrs247

right,im struggling getting a new rad for the fezz

so looks like the only option is 2 go escort,a radtec rad is about Ł200 compared to the 300 for the fester

if i fit the escort,ehat will i need to do with the intercooler???

please help me,coz i wanna get the bloody thing sorted out asap

cheers
stu

frsjon

if you fit a escort one you will have to move the standard intercooler forward,so the rad can pass behind it ...the standard cooler bolts to the side of the rad so you will need to fix it to something else...i have a brand new,still in the box airtec rad for a s2 ....cost Ł200...yours for Ł150+ postage...

madrs247

price on postage please mate

i have been offered a recon on my rad-ie new steel tanks and copper cores for the same money with a weeks wait

let me know asap pleae mate,poss before end of day,if price is right,could get it out for 2morro or weds

cheers
stu

call me on 07854 775331

frsjon

will do as soon as i can...

madrs247

postage should be no more than Ł15 mate,thats what radtec and rapid charge on their rads

if this is ok,ill get the payment 2 ya now

red seems to be the best colour for keeping away the rust bugs

Turboboy67

Sorry I beg to differ

I think you will find they are all the same

But certain White ones seem rather immune to it

jayRS

hard core white rs owner still fighting to prove something where as the red ones dont need too, there great withour proof

Turboboy67

Shut up you faggot

frsjon

off topic ,but the wheels look perfect... (shaun).

Turboboy67

Off topic again Yeah, Good photoshop isn't it ?

just got to get them done like it now, currently White, but I prefer this colour

Cheers

frsjon

get it done..

jayRS

Turboboy67

jayRS

Turboboy67

Stop editing my quotes

jayRS

ok i will post the real qoute, word for word un edited by me to prove you as a white ford own have dissed other white fords, and thats as good as saying red is better!

Turboboy67

You have a great way of turning things around to make them

look like Red is best,

I didn't even mention red, in fact now you have thats my least favourite

madrs247

jayRS

too late mate

Turboboy67

It will continue for years mate

looks like your going to be busy,

You replacing the heater matrix ?

It would be good to see some pictures up of the work
going on

Cheers

madrs247

ive fitted the s2 rad,which was A FOOKIN PAIN IN THE ARSE,also fitted the new airtec double capacity intercooler, i just need to get some brackets welded on the front slam panel to give me space between the actuator and the rad
also need to cut recess in bumper to allow good fit with new cooler.

ill get pics of current state tomorrow

lifted the carpet to see how bad, a bit worse than originally expected but still do able

looks like ill be replacing the matrix,but need to get under the dash first to check where the leaks are,also need to get rid of the air lock,and get the temp guage workin again(dont think the crimps made properly) if not,need a new temp sender

all stuff im buying bar the cooler,rad and matrix are all genuine ford and im sick of seeing that place already

jayRS

untill you see the light

madrs247

found genuine front wings and rear qtr panels for good prices,must resist spending

lets see if they accept my offer???

Turboboy67

Believe me mate, time you have finished buying all the bits from Ford

you will know all the blokes who work down there by their first names
