Hi all just got hold of this little beaut!
2.0 pinto efi turbo technics tt075

I must say I shat a brick when first driving this very unexpected delivery of power and wheelspin..

Payed £1200 for this with full history

All the plans are is to fit my sapphire cosworth alloys and a bigger intercooler and new boost hoses and then just do engine but by bit, I'm not looking for huge power but would like to see 200bhp out of it

What you guys think?

 

Nice and a good price get some pics up of the engine bay

 

Nothing special but performs well with a mild cam too

 

More pictures needed

 

Looks very nice, a good base car! Nice pepper pots! I remember those from my brothers 4i. Old school.

 

great find can't be many of these about?

 

Yeah pepper pots are just winter set I'm looking for some cosworth lattice or another kind but got to shift my st170 engine cheap lol also the prev owner we'll the only other owner, had a new turbo put on it in 2008 costing a mere £650.
And it has damper adjustable sspensin with rs cosworth stamped on them?

 

did they make these as standard then ?

 

Turbo technics made conversion kits I believe only 50 odd were ever made don't know about the suspension :/

 

I used to live next door to this car, looked smart with escort cos rims on it. Has a nice amount of power for having fun. I have some pics of it somewhere.

 

I'm trying to contact the prev owner as I want to buy the wheels

 

Hi guys I've hit a massive rock and an confused lol

Last night I started up the saff and let it run for 10 mins or so before I drive it, as driving up my road I noticed the rev gauge and fuel and the temp gauge was all on the bottom ( not working )
Battery light came on ect run like poo,

I'm guessing the alternator has lost its balls and given up it has a new battery on too,

I've taken leads off batt and left for 10 mins to see if that cured and now doesn't turn over fast enought like batt is flat.

If anyone can help would be great ful cheers

 

Make sure the leads to the battery are well connected, as a poor connection there causes those symptoms.

You can check the alternating charging voltage by measuring across the battery with the engine running, should be 14volts. This will confirm the alternator is working.

 

It's all done guys I took one of the other fuses out and they clearly have got damp ect corroded so when and got new ones for the. Whole fuse box omit row I got to tackle the indicators as they don't work, anyone know where the relay is?

 

Anyone know where the flasher releay is? Indicators don't work but press hazard and it lights up and that's all

 

I found this car as an upset rolling shell in a field.
its missing its history, and missing its engine and the car is in a million bits. Does anyone know what happened to the old girl??

 

Yea I know what happened to it, shame really.
