here's my latest car, it started life as an RS2000 but I rebuilt it to an RS Cosworth, it took me a while to complete as trying to get all genuine ford parts was a nightmare but it's been well worth the wait.

here's a few pics

 

here's it now

 

quite like the look of an esc coz with a mk6 dash. I hate the mk5 dash with a passion.

What engines in it?

 

very nice looking motor mate can see a lot of works gone into that!!!!!

 

thanks guys, at the min it still has the original 2L RS engine with a few modifications done to it , looking to put a turbo into it if I can get my hands on one.

 

wow, that looks really sweeeeet

 

thanks victor, here's a pic of the engine

 

Very smart mate


Brian

 

thanks mate

 

wow....you've did a great rebuild

The car looks very good

 

cool

 

thanks again guys

 

Now thats cool, never seen anything along those lines before.

Only thing you need to do to make it more genuine is to get some opening rear quarter windows and get the rear wheels to fill the arches more.

 

AWESOME! Really, really like that, I hope mine will look as good as that when it is done

P.S.. I think you should wack some rear wheel spacers on it

Sexy as though

 

its has spacers on at 10mm on each wheel. reason for the 10mm and no more is for performance, it's got a full customized suspension kit on it and if i were to out it anymore it would mean changing whole suspension/camber layout.

 

I really like it alot...Best ive seen on here so far but i would put all the WRC graphics on But i doubt anyone will agree

 

looks very nice!

 

I was thinking of doing that alright, still haven't made my mind up about it thou. More than likely it will be one of those spur of the moment decisions

 

I would if i owned such a lovely white cossie

Another pic i found on the forum lol And the tow eye bar thing at the back is blue

 

Good'nuff reason for me mate.

Keep up the good work

 

thanks for all the comments guys

 

Looks well mint nice car mate

 

just thought i'd let you all know that this is the colour it was going to be at first, a flip blue





when this blue paint set i realised that the binder was off in the paint so i had to redo it. sprayed it white then because i couldn't get the same paint again in time as i wanted the car ready for max power live but i left the engine bay blue as the engine was back in at this stage and left the underbody of the car blue too.

 

Is that a Mk5 Escort? Is it the 4x4 version?

 

was originally a '96 MK6 RS Escort and coverted it to MK5 to allow the genuine cossie kit to fit. the car is FWD, didn't want a 4x4 for power reasons.

 

where can i get rear brake for the rs2k instead of drums

 

If you want rear discs, the common conversion is to swap your beam with drums with one with discs. It's not that difficult.

Rear beams with discs also have ARBs, which are a great upgrade, if you haven't got one already. Makes the car a great deal more secure on corners.

Looks a fabulous project mate, nice to see you've done it all, including underneath

 

very nice mate that looks the business

 

thanks ex-finesse with the help .

 

car looks really good.

glad to see you changed the rear valance.

 

cool car mate theres some serious work and effort gone into that
what mods did you do to the engine and were they worth it, thinking of turboing my own one too, a good rep needs a ptttsssshh turbo sound

 

This thread's over a year old guys!

 

Looks very good ,lots of work.
Do you have more pic. to send an a email to my?
I,am also doing a project coslook.
it was a 1.4 cl from 1992.
The font bumper is that from MC Rallying or org.Cosworth?

 

This is my car

 

thanks rslex, nice looking car there and thanks for all the comments guys

i've decided to sell the car as i no longer use it and have a new project in the works

 

has anyone ever heard of anyone putting a cossie engine in a rs 2000 mk6?

 

exhaust, white piss flaps and the mk6 door handles ruin it IMHO

very very good rep that though mate, you should be proud
