wgat do i need2 do a zvh or zetec turbo converion on a s2 rst as since i have got ma car its been nothing but hassle and i wish i never got the car in the first place

 

both just as easy.

but if u have the MFI and cant be arsed going EFI, go with the ZVH

 

its still running the MFI but i dont know what i need or need 2 do 2 convert it

 

well u just need a 1.8 or 2.0 zetec lump, then a kit from "mad for it"

 

its a bit more involving as that. it wont be any better with a different engine. its an old car now. shit happens. deal with it.

 

tonyturbo man u need to chill, and sayin a old cars no diffrent with a new engine is a little stuped is it not ? if u have a nice relable new engine and put it in a new car dose that instanly make it shit agen ?

 

no its not anymore involving as that, as long as u have a little engineering know now or know someone. it realy is very easy to build a ZVH lump
and also i think his problems are with his engine not the hole car, so luke is very true

 

It does if the loom, ECU and sensors you're using are the same ones that were causing the hassle in the first place!

 

well very simple repalce them. there arnt many on a RST and not as if ford prices are expensive

 

If your gonna do it get it done properly!

See here www.area-six.co.uk

 

not always. its expensive that way.

 

who you calling stupid? wanker!
a rebuilt zetec with a mad for it zvh conversion kit is the cheapest possible way of building it. into a car thats 15 years old with 15 year old wiring, sensors, multiplugs etc. there's more to a car than a engine!

cheap engines are exactly that! CHEAP

zetec engine is sayŁ100
mad for it kit is say Ł150 a guess as i dont know exactly

Ł250 for a zvh

bet that'l be good.

be worse as the engine he's got!

 

someone got out the wrong side of bed today

im sure there is a few peeps on here that have a standard bottom ends on there ZVH with out any problems. and you dont going putting a engine together with out checking the bearings and seals first.
the kit from mad for it, will cost nearly Ł200 as the engine mount isnt in the kit and a few other things.

 

y would you buy an engine mount when you can modify the existing 1!

 

because some people cant weld!!

same goes for the modifyed sump

 

see my sig!

 

tonyturbo u got pm

 

this topic has turned to shit in a big way!
it started off that al you needed was a zetec block and a conversion kit. poor zvh
now it seems you need a new loom,sensors,engine mount, someone that has knowledge etc,
not gonna be so cheap now is it, u still have the unreliability of a 15 yo car surrounding the engine. if your that fussed rebuild the original engine. be far less grief!.

 

loud n clear buddy!

 

all i was asking for was some advice as i dont have a clue about this sort off thing and all this starts

 

dont worry about it mate. will all b forgotten tomoro

 

cool mate the car is getting sold anyway the way it is

 

 

that is the easy way out imo.
