Though i would treat the car to a bit of a wash, (between the rain showers) and take a few pics !

Looks naughty m8,why the v plate and whats the spec ?

 

droooool!!!!! that's bloody gorgeous!!

 

gorgeous car mate

probably been asked this loads but a V plate? hows it on that?

Dan.

 

Cheers, its on a V plate cos its a late registered motorsport shell car.

At the moment it is T34 running on Siemens blacks with all the usual associated bits at around 350+ bhp.

Ap 6 paddle clutch with Reyland hydraulic clutch conversion (best mod yet !)

Comp MO's 10" rear and 8.5" front on 888's

GGR 3" stainless exhaust.

378mm 6 pot AP's are on order for the front cos the standard brakes are dog shite !

Gaz.

 

Loving that Gaz, stuning looking Escos..............

 

very nice mate and rare to see a v plate one.

 

very very nice mate

I was gonna go for wider rears myself but wsa told it would
fuck my diff.... how do you find it or are you not running standard diff?

 

Running a standard diff and it has been absolutely fine so far. I'm sure it will decide to destroy itself one day tho !

The amount of grip on the back end in the dry is unbelievable on the 265 wide 888's so i reckon it's gotta be worth the risk.

 

Wider rears are fine, so long as the rolling radius of front and rear is approx the same. It's different rolling radius front/rear that fucks 4x4 diffs.

 

Fronts are 235/40/18 - 1960mm TRC
Rears are 265/35/18 - 1968mm TRC

Only an 8mm difference in Tyre Rolling Circumference so its close enough for me !

 

lovely car m8 so so mean looking, are the headlights slighty smoked or is it they just look that way from the pic angle ?? the only thing i would do if it was mine is sort the rear badges out, to the small turbo escos places as you have small turbo mirrors on her.. but its up to you shes your car and she is a real beauty

 

i always thought m-sport shells had no sun roof.

 

Very nice mate

The headlights are just standard mate - must be just the photo angle.

I've tried to look into all the motorsport / lux spec stuff to find out exactly what the differences are but it is a proper grey area ! Did not care that it was motorsport when i bought it cos i knew i would be swapping bits anyway !
Its got opening rear quarters which the motorsport ones aint meant to have so fook knows what sort of hybrid it is !!!

 

you know i love this car mate and i can verify the car grips like fook, have to be in it to believe how well it handles, awesome

 

Stunning car, mate!!!

Can you remember the offset of those 10" wheels???

 

do you have coilovers or standard spring/shock setup? and whats the wheel offsets. cheers.

 

Thats bloody nice that is,

 

iirc it has normal konis on it

 

I like...

 

well nice, i remember when martin posted pics of the wheels a while ago.

 

Lovin car m8. Hopefully ill have one one day. ill just have to make do with 130bhp xr3i. lol.

 

Yissir i LIKE that. Just the right amount of shady/moody for a white Escos IMO, and some proper j on the back wheels

Ready for 500 Reyland horses with that (awesome) spec as well

 

looks a nice car and really rare on the v-reg , is that the one that andrew gallagher did the conversion on ? sure a read somewhere he built one for somebody was a lhd shell and changed the bulkhead etc....to rhd , maybe wrong tho .

 

Koni shocks with Ahmed springs mate. Shock cups have been cut back and replated flat on the outer face in order to clear.

Fronts are 8.5 x ET18
Rears are 10 x ET25

Very nice matey
I tried to race you the other week just off Sacred Heart island going towards glascote road, i was in a Black Mk1 Golf, i knew i was going to lose

 

Ah, that was you then - thats one tidy golf. You local to tamworth as well i take it ?

 

nope the one he done is a X-reg

 

Ditch the Reyland sticker and it'll look great mate, not a fan of the super wide comps but you went for the right colour I think

 

looks awesome

 

Shes so bloody damn hot screemin!!!

I wish we had those Escos available in our backwards fuckup for a country...
Neway shes a real hottie dude!!

How does those escos handle??

 

Yes matey, Amington way.
See you about every now and again, also another white one with N10 FMC on the plate.
