Hi guys just wondering if any of you have ever fitted a T4 to a green top sapphire? The reason I say green top is that the alternator and power steering pump are as in the escort under the turbo, I have the same idea on my £dr as it is a late spec engine but I am going to be fitting a T4 hopefully next week with the 2wd manifold. Can anybody see clearance problems?


Thanks

 

hey nick,

there are many escos with t-4 so I guess it will fit. so you are going to fit a t-4...real nice.

 

hey nick,

is this the 3dr with 4wd?????

 

Yeah mate, at the moment it has a T34 but the deal has been struck!
The pics are on the RS500 forum under " pics of my car" my white Rs500 is there as well which I haven't posted before!

The only difference is that I will be running a 2wd manifold though!

Nick

 

HI, YOU WOULDNT KNOW IF THEY MADE 2WD SAFFS ON A H PLATE WOULD YOU?

 

I have only heard of one personally but I dont doubt that there are a few late registered ones as 4 x 4's go on to L and M regs for the same reason! have you seen one?

 

hey nick,

do you have now the 4wd front suspension and steering arms etc.
didn't you have any problems with these brakes getting on the car with the rims
that's because I couldn't fit my AP's because of the wheels I have now.
I have to buy compomotive MO's

best regards

 

I have had to get special disc mounting bells to space the wheels out! Whenever Steve at A1 finishes them????? But yeah all the 4wd running gear steering etc is fitted we had to replace the tunnel and mod the front chasis legs but apart from that it was quit easy!


Nick

 

you don't have the special mounting bells now. and your wheel don't touch the caliper.

the OZ is a nice looking wheel.

 

nick,shouldnt have any probs with pulley clearence as turbo sitts higher on 2wd manifold than it does on 4x4 manifold

cheeRS stu

p.s. will email you guy,s phone number for saturday

 

Cheers stu!

The car has at the moment stock spacers which are no good for balancing the wheels/hubs and would not run very true. so that is another reason it is not going as yet!

Nick

 

with these rims you can see the fooking nice brakes very good.
