Hi everyone
Just bought this, its an RS Automotive Evo RS200, Mid engined, cosworth powered. Going to do it white with big rims, engine all built by Tommy Field Motorsport.

Here's a few pics

 

 

 

Nice always fancied doing one myself

Paul

 

They are great to drive, especially on track, I've had one for fours years now.

Jim

 

my fave rs look so good...

 

It will have a stage 3 engine, i've decided not to use the one in the pic, i've got another one with T34, green injectors etc, 200 block, level 8 ECU which i will have launch control and anti-lag put on. I haven't seen any for sale and know the kits are rare. How much is it likely to be worth when finished and white?
I'll take a pic of the engine today and put it on here later.
Thanks for any help.
John

 

Price thats difficult mk2 cossie escorts go for 8 to 15k depending spec so i think yours would be near to the top of that imo if not more

My advice is go for coilpack and closed loop aswell as launch and anti lag i'm sure Stu will do you a good package deal.

What cooler u using and expected power output?

Paul

 

It Has The Intercooler That Goes Across The Roof, I Will Make The Engine As Close To 400bhp As Possible

 

i have found a lot of contacts while i have been building mine, so if i can be of any help please feel free to contact me as i belive you may need engine mounts and gearbox mounts
i hope we can help each other
mark

 

Hi mark, thanks for that. I was going to make the engine mounts and gearbox mounts but do you know of any for sale, would be quicker for me.
What's your one like? Any pics? Do you know what they are worth when done?
thanks
John

 

the price of these goes up and down like a yo yo but a lot depends of the quaility of the build and spec level
as far buying the engine mounts and gearbox mounts i dont think you can has i had to make the gearbox mounts and i bought the last set of engine mounts but you are more than welcome to have a look at mine to give you an idea if you dont live to far away , mine is almost the same sort of stage as your apart from i have the engine and box in and the exhaust is on but still loads to do

 

wow love these, what box have you in there kent dude? is it the renault one?

 

nice,just wish i could keep mine now.

you can still buy the body shells (my mate has the master molds)

dave

 

yours going now then dave?

 

hiya lamb chops
if it won`t for you i wouldn`t have got mine at all,cheers bud.

sadly mate yes,on flea bay as we speak,only a day left too.

dave

 

yes thats the renault un1 012 gearbox with the specially made bell housing which was hard to get hold of ,at the moment the only thing holding me up is time, money and knowledge but i will get there in the end

 

Mark
Is that the same kit as mine then? RS Automotive Evo? Looks different. Has yours got twin petrol tanks etc? Might be cause the back isn't on it
John

 

yes its a kara/mercury/ rs automotive it only has one tank that garry from ex rs automotive built for me

 

sorry to see that dave, i hope you get what you want for it matey.

 

Got all panels off car now, most of them in primer. Will be white soon. Bought some 18 inch wheels and new tyres. Getting on quite well now. Does anyone know how difficult the SVA test is? I dont know how it will end up being registered. I dont want it on a Q plate. I have been told i can use the donor car to put it onto. Can anyone help?
I have also sourced a Renault UN1 gearbox and found someone who has the linkage, mounts etc. to fit it all in. I will not be needing my Porsche 911 G50 5 speed box now, it has all the parts to bolt onto a cossie engine with it so if anyone wants to make me an offer for it, i will sell it.
Thanks
John

 

I USED TO SEE ferraris and lambos the real looking fakes not the fiero or mr2 crap with jaguar on the tax disc,infact that was one quick way to check if the car was real as some people register them up as what the doner was, dunno if it is still like this or if you could just act daft and do it.
that car would look great with the steering wheel on the left and a set of white revolutions

nice,just wish i could keep mine now.

you can still buy the body shells (my mate has the master molds)

dave)


would love an rs200 how much would youre mate want for a seat of moulds or how much for the use of his master moulds

 

wimble
pm me what your after and i will have a word

dave

 

Got most of the car in primer and some bits white. Cant wait to get engine and box all in.
John

 

web81e, kentdude,

Nice to see your cars coming along nicely!

I'm sure if you gave Garry a ring he could make up the mounts for you as I'm sure he would still have the patterns/jigs.

I've had mine for 7 years now, still love it!

Have you got the twin tanks like mine? Cos I get really bad fuel surge, robbing the fuel pump round left handers. Am currently installing a lift pump + swirl pot.

 

Very cool car. One of my favorite car as of now. Hope to see you in streets. I have never seen this car.

hey the body works looking great any updates on the car or new pics ?

 

it looks real but isnt there a gear box you could use to make it 4x4now that would be real special.

 

Always liked these as the IMSA versions not the rally ones





Just a thought if you have some wide wheels kicking around and a bit of time to do some GRP work

 

very nice machine.... such raw appeal..

can you still get the chassis made.. and if so how much would it cost.

cheers

 

amazing looking car love em

 

phat!!!

 

woo keep the updates coming!!!
