After my little problem with a split rad hose, I managed to make it down to Harveys by bodging two shit hoses together with copper pipe to make one good on

Now running circa 1.8 bar on my T4

I know its not 700bhp but it goes ok :P gearbox is going to shit itself v soon me thinks

I know he only comes on here VERY occasionally but massive thanks to BIG BEAR (my new name for him due to size of his hands ) i.e. Harvey Gibbs, Ann, and the mechanic (forgotten his name ) at SCS

 

Just need ya mate Gordon the gofa to set it up on the rollers now

 

when funds allow I will probably get it lived mapped at brunters, but right now, they dont

 

Sorry, but I couldn't help myself, this pic makes me laugh everytime

 

oooooooooooo, now I know what you mean. FPMSL. at least someone appreciated my photoshopping efforts

 

Just remember not to let Gooey touch it EVER again

and you shouldn't break anything else

 

BANG!

Dom - FOOK! what was that?

ME - Your gearbox just fell off

 

You mean Tim, Dom...... (he might be offended if you call him just a 'mechanic' though )

PMSL @ calling him Big Bear - does he KNOW you call him that??

but have you had the water pipe sorted properly now you had some more boost????

 

Bill. I will remember for future and also call him "head technician" water hose will be sorted..........one day Harvey doesnt know I call him that. he might crush me if he did so just you keep quiet

AJ your not wrong mate. its hating it already

Mac I'm even changing the plate off of GOO to try and lift the curse mate!!!!

 

Sort the hose before it bites ya!!!!! Increases in power will usually find the weakest link (GOODBYE!!), and you don't really want to be dumping the coolant due to a failed (and bodged at that! ) part whilst giving it large.......

Maybe you'll get a great big.................BEAR SLAP next time you pop in there...

 

Jap crap...a T4 is painfully laggy though dont you think?...great on boost though...wait till you see my lag monster..ROFL.

 

"BIG BEAR" and me (photo by porkie)

 

 

FPMSL @ Bills version

Maybe thats why Mike likes him so much. you know what they say about men with big hands

Phil. I know, it is shite Mike told me to get it !!!!! wait till I have a go in your lag monster??

 

Billabong, I forgot you did that photo PMSL

 

PMSL - you're just diggin' that hole deeper!! I take you're not needing to go back to SCS anytime soon

Simon, I think this one was more popular

 

 

Back at ya Bill.....

 

 

I'm going back to Harvey's for a 600 build!!!!!!!

 

 

Dom, its cursed for you as well, changing the plate aint gonna help. Should of put the money towards a new gearbox


















and diff






















and drive shafts





















Need I go on


















What about brakes Still standard arent they

 

yes, standard, they love it . it will all get done when finds allow, simple.

pete, how many problems did the previous owner of your escort have?? how many have you had with it??? you are the cursed one just no car you own is ever the same again

anyway, it's not cursed. its a cossie....look in any peformance ford feature and its the same old story....after 5 rebuilds, x and y messing up, its finally how it is now....
