There might be just enough space to fit the fan inbetween the cooler and rad if you space the cooler a little further forward.
Here's a couple of quick pics i took earlier for ya was getting dark though, and bumper isn't 100% bolted on.

got my eye on the black one

 

good lad

 

Hey, i need to ask how do you get mk4 lowered 60mm? Do you cut those -40mm springs or buy totally new springs? What kind of shocks do people use with -60mm escorts?

I have -40mm springs on my own escort and its too high for me. Next summer i will get it downnnn. But how? Maybe i cut a little from my 40mm springs? I have original lenght shocks and they dont like that -40mm springs, do they work at all with -60mm?

I tried to use search but i don't know which keywords to use I don't know all the english car terms so well

 

that looks ok fella, i wouldnt want to cut the springs tho. as it would not feel right in the drive

 

please let me have this , its an awsom color

 

Thanks mate! I like the color too. Its quite a special color, i've seen only 2 other ford with that color. If i repaint that car someday the color will be the same :P

 

Looks Great that does,

 

love that one, check out the headlamp washers

 

I did cut the springs.. But must say, also used some Koni shocks.

 

Looks great this one

 

just spotted this on the bay, must be pretty rare being a 3dr auto, the PAS must have been a conversion by someone when it was new?

here is a bonus riddle.....what does the man who has a 2dr, non sunroof Bonus on RST wheels need in his life?








Yep, another one! ha ha, had seen it lying not far from me for a while so eventually spoke to owner and bought it!

Gonna take a few bits off for mine then will move it on, shell seems very good and rust free, however badly modded with bad boy bonnet, predator bumper and bonded on RST kit will get some pics up when its light

black ones mint!
wonder how much that would go for, fair few bids on there

 

clean eh? didnt think it would go that high though!!

 

Its nearly at £900!!As clean as it is,thats more than I think its worth.Micky

 

dont worry micky im not thinking of buying,just wondered what the final price would be as you have said its quite a premium,i have enough on my hands already

 

few pics of how mine stands today









still to finish off interior but getting there

 

looks gorgeous pal, very simple and not over done

 

Looks really great. -40mm springs?

What motor do you have in place?

 

yes mate, 40mm springs for now. Drives great

I am running a 2.0 zetec on RS1800 management:

 

Just flipping through this. I own a 1990 Popular Plus which is shortly going to be for sale as my heart belongs to my two Ford Capri's. One is becoming a daily in may!

It needs some work (which i'll be doing) but runs great and the interior is brilliant. Only want £450.

 

gold ones lookin awsome mate! hopefully my xr will sort of class more like this than my old rs so ill get some pics up soon guys

 

heres mine, hoping for time to get an mot dont then maybe using bits off the escort gti im breaking to zetec it altho i may just put it on ebay

 

i actually love this. i really really want one, and love the fact youve not rewind it with terrible body kits. nommycar.
