Default New at PassionFord!

Hello everybody! My name is Johnny Lehti. I live in Sweden, Gothenburg. I once started the first club in Sweden with performance Fords in 1997. After 3 years we decided to put it on ice, and now there is the Ford Motorsport Club Sweden which have quite a lot of members thanks to the big numbers of imported cars from Germany and Italy. There is about 1300 Cosworths in Sweden right now, and before the import we had about 220 of both Sierra and escort! Only the 4WD versions came to Sweden as new. I own a Sierra Cosworth -92 myself. Tuned engine of course with GTBB turbo, Gr.A-head, BD14 and BD10 cams, Cosworth pistons. Nothing special. I have 19" Magnesium Touringcar rims with 215/35 tyres wich is a tight fit! Proflex 3-way adj. tarmac dampers. Cobra Kevlar seats and some big brakes from Brembo. 378x32mm front discs with 6-pot calipers, and 330mm discs at the rear. It will be intresting to watch this forum and see what everyone else have done to their cars! Regards, Johnny.
