need your help guys!!!
Buy my bro's car or keep my turbo.....

my bro has got a k reg xr2i, 2L zetec, with a few extras, mk 5 fiesta smoothed boot,lexus lights,konis and slammed on pi springs,mondeo 16"x7" 5spoke alloys sprayed diamond white, DTM cup mirrors, huge cut out, fiesta turbo bonnet and rear pop out windows, erst 90' spec recaros, with matching rear bench, K&N, scorpion xorst, clean bodywork, lower millage than my turbo 48K, and a lot of potential for what i wanna do....

he is gonna be selling it soon... lucky bastard has a series 1 round my nans just waiting to be started on.....

my bro's mate wants my car, 91' mercury grey fiesta turbo, 83K miles, big history, 3 owners, ford racing gauges(volts, boost, oil pressure, water temp),AVO coilovers,full magnex xorst,trust air filter,clean body work, re built engine 10K ago,and a few more bits, rare wheels in the pipe line-to go on my car-if i keep it, or on my bro's, also big ford brakes too!!!!!....

my bro's bottom end went on his 2i bout 3 months ago, at the time it was a 2i but with an RS1800 lump, brain, everything, since then he bought a 2L mondeo from the lump to replace his engine with so he can sell it... i bought his RS1800 lump off him to go in my car eventually, i want zetec power, preferably a 2L zetec turbo....

my old man keeps saying to me why not buy your bro's car take what you've been offered and the hard part is basically done and i have plenty of change to put towards 'project zetec turbo'......

what do you reckon i should do..... big decision.....
I want his car, wouldn't keep it as it is, sell the lexus lights, loose the white wheels for my 'rare' set, loose the DTM's and put some of my things from my car on his eventually.......

It is a good deal for all really, I get a fiesta with a 2L zetec lump already and some pocket money, my bro's mate gets a sound rs turbo, and my bro gets to start his series 1 with some pocket money also....

 

do it mate

 

yeah i wanna just wanna here a few more people say that and i probably will ....

 

that took a bit of reading, but yeh go for it, nothing like a change of car to rekindle interest in modding

 

I think your right mate


I've done it before, so I can probably do it again.....

 

DO IT IF YOUR GOING TO TURBO IT ANYWAY

 

aiiiii

 

only problem being when u go 2 sell it on a 2i is never gonna get any where near as much as a genuine rst

 

thats probably why i don't wanna do it

but its got everything my rs has

it just wont be a genuine rs

 

Just got your PM

Up to you at end of the day, personaly i'd keep yours as its clean and solid.
Just fit the 2l turbo to yours, i'll help you all you need and I'm sure others we know will help ya with anything you need to know mate.

NB. as long as mine's still faster

 

yours is always gonna be faster mate

now reading your message i think your right
very grateful for your advice, glad you wrote, i was swaying towards buying my bro's car, but what you said has really hit home, and besides that the misses came home and now she wants to buy it, she wants a faster car anyway......
as you know i'm well pleased with your help so far, for you know what and will be even happier for more help mate!!!!
