My new motor.

Needs some bits & bobs doing, but a good starting point for me.













Needs some paintwork & general bit of tlc, but cant wait to get stuck in, needs manifold gasket doing first, also needs new suspension setup, and some decent tyres, cant get the power down at the moment, spinning like a mo fo.

 

 

looks good ,check my thread ,
s2 with picss,from start to now,coz theyre never finished .

boot seems to sit low,maybe the rubbers are worn.

 

alot of potential in thaty rs mate. good luck keep us updated with the pictures.

 

Cheers everyone

Just ordered some -40mm billie springs & shocks, and some smoked rear lamps

Also got some 1" chocks for the bonnet coming, then get my polished s2 rims with anthracite inserts on, buy 90 spec bumper & spoiler, get a full flash of paint, then i can get my chip, IC, piper cam & it will be sorted.

will need to upgrade the brakes aswell, was thinking 2wd cossie calipers & discs?

then, she will be sorted, for now.

Will have a look at the boot, thanks for noticing, because i didnt

 

 

you can still get the rear light gaskets from ford,18quid a pair i think,for your smoked ones,as this is where the rain runs down the hatch sill and over the light gaskets,if their perished then the rain gets in.

also mind your shocks are not smaller than stock or them with your 40mm drop springs might be way too much,mine had a 20mm drop on the shocks alone,when my 40mm spring were fitted ,60mm,and not nice,arch rubbing tyre wearing,hard cak.think about some new bushes if it aint been polyeed. take your time too.but not too long else youll go outside one morning and there will be juss a pile of rust on your drive.

 

looks good mate congrats

No need for cossie calipers, S2 ones are just as good, just get the brackets to space caliper out and get 2wd discs
