nice cars there

 

nice

 

nice cars there mate

 

Nice

 

The interior and engine look good. Not sure about the outside though.

Bet it is brisk though

 

Front looks gorgeous altho i'm not a fan of the lights...

In my opinion the back would look cute without the middle spoiler...

And the interior looks very nice.... loving them seats!

 

thanks folks!

u wouldnt believe how many folk arent keen on the rear spolier!! lol

i only put it on to match the one i fitted to the top of the bootlid.

think next year when it gets painted again i'll take it off!

 

I like the spoiler !! lol top one im not keen on tho.

Nice moter mate, you from Glasgow/paisley?

 

from Kilmarnock buddy just outside glasgow

 

Haha am from Kilwinning but stay in Dundee now.Only moved 2 months ago but regularly go back down.

Oh and i like ure car looks like mine kinda

Mines is the cossie engined Fiesta

 

yeah i remeber the guy that had it before u changin alot of the stuff on the car to look like mine! was fizzin when Alan told me!! lol

seen your car and its a crackin job done to get the engine shoe horned in there!
i only remeber the car cause Alan showed me it when i 1st put mine into AVA and i said to him "as long as its faster than that one i'll be happy!!"

 

Haha smug git

Yeah it should defo be better than mine cause as said in my thread its only runnin 10psi but thats cause the owner put it back that way asi t was runnin stg1 and 17psi but no grip and plkenty of snapped driveshafts

nice to see ure car is so well built and specced.Must be some machine!!!! Thought mines was cool

 

yours is still a tidy piece of kit, just need to spend the money where the other owner didnt, e.g poly bushes, strenthened drive shafts, quiafe internals, coil overs and a slightly biger wheel size (16's best) then you'll have no problems gettin the power down mines runnin higher BHP and ive had no problems as thats the advice Alan at AVA told me to do.

gotta say tho how much fun is it pullin up to an EVO in a Fiesta and seeing its driver face as u pull the doors off it!!! i'll never tire of it! lol

 

Haha nice one.

Yeah its got coilovers and cossie brakes now just need strenghtened gearbox and driveshafts and put it back to stg1 spec and see how it is oh and also a bigger cooler aswell standard FRST aint gonna last long runnin 17/18psi ide imagine

How much did the box and driveshafts cost u?

 

i was lucky with my gear box as i got one from a friend who happened to have one cause he used Zetecs for rallying and had a few spare box's! (do u know how hard u have to haggle with a man that keeps gearbox's for rallying???)
i paid £800 for mine and that came with the quaife LSD in it

think quaife do a full box conversion for £2500 with all internals straight cut and LSD fitted. check out their website for a catalog that gives u all the prices depending on what kinda box u need

 

Lucky coont yi

Cheers for all info and maybe one day get a blast with you when im back in Kilwinning

 

u can bet on it! just take a trip round Killie and you'll be bound to spot my Fez! be delighted to go head to head!!!

 

very nice matey

 

Brian

 

NICE !!

 

Grant you would murder the other Fiesta without even trying

 

cool!

 

Awesome! That's some power too!

Likin' the interior too!

 

very nice mate

did you have the work done opr a prev owner?


why the recaro badge on the ford seats?

top car

carl

 

Must be crazy quick wee that power on AVA rollers

 

cheers folks!

i bought the car myself back in 98 with a genuine 32k on the clocks, it the limited edtion RS1800 made with the spanish shell.
i was banned from driving so decided to make the Fez crazy power!

took a trip to AVA and talk for a good few hours with all the lads there and decided they were the folk for the job. so a week later i handed over the car and keys and after waitin 2 1/2 years for them to custom build just about everything from turbo systems, intercooler, twin return back box, 4 branch manifold, intercooler, Stand alone fuel management and wilwood 4 pot brake set up with disc and bell to the rear cossie brake disc conversion and nitrous i handed over the 12k and it was mine again!
had it sittin away for ages since my old job had me workin away from home all the time. so all bought and designed by me! lol

went for the Recaro badge as when i took the seats out a i found a Recaro sticky price tag on the sub frame with a ref' number on both. im sure Ford had the wing backs made by Recaro as the foam has it embossed on it too.

cars a total sceamer waaaay to much power in it for its size but if your like me and you've got a heavy foot it really does put a smile on your face while making your knuckles white!!!

 

just a few pics after the mag feature this months since i accidently wiped the one's from the start of the thread!!

 

Remember this wheel spinning on the rollers at ava last year, stunning car mate.

 

Brian

 

nice remember reading it in my fordie mag!!!!
