any1 got a cossie powered sleeper e.g a escort 1.3 with a cossie lump

 

Here is a couple of pics of my MK5 2dr Cortina

Was first built with the 24v engine in 1998 and then changed to the Cossie Turbo in August 2000 after i had redesigned my 4dr MK5 Cortina

Was fitted with a custom Stainless Exhaust and LSD and discs at the back also a stage 1 chip and a RS500 Intercooler.






Died in 2003 of rust

Some pics from another thread:




And the old 1.3 pics that have been doing the rounds for months and finally resurfaced a few weeks back: just incase someone has been living in a glass cage for the last year.

cossie4i
have you got anymore pics of the pepermint green cortina (how it was & how it ended up)? think i can remember it being featured. looked pretty mint at the time (excuse the pun)

 

The 2dr was featured in Classic Ford and Performance Ford when fitted with the 24v.

Also i done a test day at Brunters with Performance Ford when it was fitted with the Cossie Turbo

0-60mph = 5.64 secs

0-100mph = 13.12 sec

146.7mph Top Speed

All on standard injectors and T3 with a stage 1 chip

Will find some more pics.

Did this attend a fast ford thrash.

 

all sleepers are but that w reg escort is would luv to fook some porsche driver with it the look on his face would be priceless

 

that escort is so cool

 

nice

 

Not this van but another one John built a LWB version, was in the 24v thrash that was in the May 2003 issue of Fast Ford. Also my White XR4i was at the thrash

Transit = 16.49 1/4 (no LSD) and done 110mph

XR4i = 14.71 1/4 (LSD from a XR4x4) and done 140mph.

great in the dry poo in the wet

check out this months practical peformance car. theres a fiat cinquecento with a 320bhp cossy lump in the boot its also for sale Ł4800. gotta be the ultimate sleeper

 

 

This is mine.

 

that looks

 

This is mine

 

I think a cossie powered granada hearse would be a cool sleeper.

You'd have to have an empty coffin in the back and drive wearing a black cap.

Imagine the looks as you go burning away from the lights!

 

this car belongs to a friend of mine he's been there done that got the tshirt lol

 

thats super . have you got anymore pics?

 

i agree, looks class more pics

 

There is one!! Goes down Ace Cafe, has a 24v lump fitted

 

some more







Its off road for some Tlc new wheels a chargecooler and bodywork

Possibly 18's if i can get um to fit

 

costina
why new wheels? those ones really suit the car

 

COSTINA that car looks awsome mate, please dont change the wheels

 

like the man says,id leave that well alone, looks damn good as it is mate

 

I need a different offset because i have wheel wobble @40 to50 mph

found this out after changing complete front end

After putting my saff wheels on it the problem was fixed, saff wheels were et 40 and cortina was on et 35 its only 10mm extra track but it sorted the problem

Thinking of black spokes polished rims?

 

they all look gd
